Service packs 1 (April), 2 (June) and 3 (November) were each released in 2002, these progressively updated the Community Edition, Trainz 1.0 to versions 1.1, 1.2, and 1.3 successively. Trainz Community Edition was released in December 2001. Like the file set, nothing is known about this beta of Trainz. Trainz 0.9 was the CD-ROM beta that was mailed to testers by Auran. While little-to-no information is known about this version of Trainz, it originally started life as a set of downloadable files in 2000. It was renamed under the name of Content Manager Plus (CMP) in TRS2006. The Content Manager (CM) module is a Windows program that allows management of the in-game database files.
PaintShed is a simple program for aiding and easing the process of 'reskinning' traincars, altering their livery, by recoloring and adding new heraldry to Trainz locomotives and other rolling stock.
The simulators are supported by a large library of freeware assets which can be downloaded from the N3V servers, referred to as Download Station (DLS).
