what items are “missing” from your xtrkcad?
If it is saying you need to register, look on the sillub homepage, right above where it says “Update - Version 3.1.4 is available”. There is a link that you can follow to get the registration information.

Start XtrkCad and choose File → Register…
If it is the program istself you are looking for you can get it here:
XtrkCAD Special Interest Group
Be sure to run the tutorial once you get it installed. It will take several hours but it is worth it.
xtrkcad is 4.0.1 is available from http://www.xtrkcad.org/Wikka/HomePage
If by “rest of the items offered” you mean the pre-formed track sections and buildings, go to files > parameter files > browse, find the file on your hard drive labeled “params”, and you’ll find them there. They have the extension .xtp.

Has anyone tried the 4.0.1 version yet? Problems? Opinions?
I’m using the 4.0.1 but never used the old version. The biggest problem I’ve had so far is the last post I made (above). It was a little frustrating figuring that out but maybe I should have known that already.
