Глобальные перемены в G-trax

Давно нас уже не балует G-trax новыми дополнениями. А тут еще такие новости. Цитирую:
"Change of Focus at G-TraX
As many of you are aware, the G-TraX on-line store was shut down following the October 20 release of Train Simulator 2013. Issues that led to the shutdown have now been resolved, but meanwhile G-TraX and this web site have undergone a change of focus.
The Durango & Silverton route is once again available as Donationware from G-TraX only. Proceeds will continue to benefit the Durango Railroad Historical Society.
After three years, the rate of new orders for the three heritage steam locomotives has dwindled to negligible levels and they will no longer be available from G-TraX. However, sales of those products are scheduled to resume on Steam at some point, and the locomotive packages have been adapted to take advantage of the new Quick Drive feature.
Rather than continuing to receive royalties for the heritage steam locomotives, G-TraX will receive a one-time buyout payment for them. G-TraX will in turn make a one-time final donation to the respective preservation societies.
Future updates to and maintenance of the heritage steam locomotive products will be the responsibility of the entity from which you purchased them, that is, G-Trax for items purchased from G-TraX and Steam for items purchased through Steam. G-TraX will endeavor to update locomotive products you purchased from G-TraX in concert with future updates to Train Simulator; however, G-TraX will not necessarily have access to future Train Simulator technologies so no guarantees can be made in this regard. In any case, please do not contact G-TraX if you have an issue concerning a product that you purchased through Steam.
The G-TraX passenger car sets will be uploaded to the Railworks America file library as freeware in late 2012 or early 2013.
Existing G-TraX freeware products will also be uploaded to the RWA file library.
The Portland Terminal and P42DC products will continue to be available on Steam only. Updates to and maintenance of these products is the responsibility of RSC/Steam.
G-TraX (Rick Grout) will concentrate on providing contract route- and model-building services as well as complete product packages for distribution via Steam. That does not rule out the possibility of future independent releases along the lines of Durango & Silverton.
The G-TraX site has been "slimmed down" to reflect these changes.
Thanks to all of you who have supported G-TraX. This is not the end of the road; I'm not going anywhere. Just doing things a little different.
Rick"
суть такая:
- продажи локов будут идти только в Стиме
- останется на офсайте доступен для покупки только Дуранго-Сильвертон
- скоро на сайт Рейлворкс Америка попадут пассажирские вагоны, а также все бесплатные дополнения G-trax и они будут бесплатными ВСЕ!
