Where is list of my DLC?

[sonoranskies]

It appears to me I bought several engines on the March Madness sale which I can't find. So, I'm not usre if they were downloaded or not. Is there a way for me to check my engine inventory and if so where? I want to see what engines I own vs those I have keep a list of buying.

What did you buy? If you don't have the route that the included scenarios are for then you won't see it in the scenario lists. Check your collection, which I think is under the Profile from the main menu, they should show up there. The addons likely have Quick Drive enabled, and you can find this under the Drive menu.

Your Steam account should help with the managment of your purchases. i.e. when logged into your account, looking at the game's full DLC in the Steam Store, any DLC you've already purchased should be 'greyed-out' (darker - less bright in colour) with a little purple tag saying in game library. And any DLC you haven't purchased yet in the Store DLC list will be normal screen brightness with no tagging, clearly showing routes & locos you've yet to buy. This is one easy way of keeping tabs on Steam DLC, but this method clearly can't take into account any 3rd party add-ons (not sold through Steam).

But I would have thought that's one very simple way of keeping a quick track of items bought or still to be purchased.

Steam properties is another good way of seeing what Steam DLC for the game you've got installed, by just right clicking on the game in your library list (of games) and it should then display the list of all Steam DLC you've purchased for the game, with a little check-box by the name of each item, with a note next to each item whether it's installed or not. That's in additon to the ticks (or missing ticks) in the check boxes for each DLC item.

There are many other ways of keeping track of your routes and locos actually in-game, or using simple 3rd party apps. But seeing as the Steam store is such a straight forward way of tracking purchases it hardly seems worth mentioning these. I very much hope you can easily find through Steam whether your new purchases have downloaded or not. Good luck.

Look at the game in your library. The new version of steam lists all the DLC you have bought on the game page below the achievements you have gained. Just scroll down and you will have a scrollable list including a tick to indicate if they are installed - the same as you used to have to go to the Properties>DLC tab for.

that is if you are running the steam beta

Yes I am participating in the Steam beta, that's correct. And finding plenty of advantages through doing so, with no apparent disadvantages seen yet. Definitely, would pulll out immediately if I thought there were any significant snags, but so far so very good. I'm genuinelly not sure what options exist in the menus and options these days outside the Steam beta; I've been subscribed to the beta for a while now.

Thanksa folks for your help! I have got it figured out.

Nope, the feature has already been patched into the official steam client.
