Trainz build is the numbering system allocated to each released version of Trainz. Content may be created for different versions, making use of the newer functions in a more recent release. Consequently, some models will not function in earlier versions of the simulator.

It is important for models to list the version of Trainz for which they are compatible. For older Trainz builds, this is done by entering a Trainz-Build number in the model config.txt file. The Content Creator Plus module will automatically add the correct trainz-build to the config.txt file.

A model constructed for an older version may function in a newer version, but this is not guaranteed, as there have been amendments made to subsequent versions. Likewise, a model using the latest functions will not work in an earlier version. The Download Station identifies which version of Trainz you have installed and when you use the Download Helper option, it will not allow the download of a more recent model that is incompatible with your version.
