BVE
Download and Installation
To
download BVE, visit the official website: http://mackoy.cool.ne.jp/
For
full English language instructions, with screen
shots, detailing how to download and install the
software, you can use the excellent guides in the
BVE help sections at the following sites: Rail
Sim Routes UK and Train
Sim Central
However,
if you really want to go it alone, the official
site is Japanese, but navigation is fairly
straight forward and each of the downloads and
the installation steps are actually written on
different pages, which can be accessed via an
English menu on the left of the screen. When you
access the site, look for the screen shot on the
left of the main page. Above it, is the word
'Get'. Click on either this word, or the screen
shot to go to the download pages.
For
a complete installation, download the main
program (obviously) plus the default train &
route pack (Uchibo). You'll also need the file
called 'String.ini', which may be found by
clicking the 'String Table' link on the menu on
the left of the download pages.
To
help, you can use a translation service such as
the ones provided by Excite and AltaVista...
Please
note that the download links may not work on
translated pages. Therefore, it may be necessary
to open the original (without translation) in a
seperate window, and mirror your actions in the
other window.
