Ummm Trainz89 he dosn't want to know WHAT your doing, he wants to SEE what your doing...

[JAMEZ001]

Identity fraud is such a common habit of people who have nothing better to do with their time, and with no life of their own.

If you, trainz89, suffer from a multiple personality disorder causing you to believe such rubbish then I apoligise for the harshness of this message. However, if not you need to learn to grow up and understand that we aren't blind and can see through bull****.

I would be more swung by the idea that you are the past US president George W. Bush by the way you're carrying on about something you have no idea about.

Here's a comparison you might understand; If James Bond had your imitation skills - he would have died in Dr No.

[Muliebuck]

Interesting - you 'claim' to be the QR Comissioner, yet your obvious lack of poise, polite discourse and rational discussion about things, let alone your obviously questionable gramatical errors, well - that I might forgive, but if you are indeed the 'comissioner' for QR, you wouldn't be posting rubbish here (most likely, wouldn't even CARE this 'forum' existed, and sure as heck, wouldn't be living in Adelaide (which I add, is a lovely state), or use mummy's and daddy's email, to send emails to people.

If anything, I think you amusing, for the obvious reasonings, and bordering on blatant out and out misrepresentation and false utterances. One last point, if I may, is WHEN last, did anyone talk of Queensland Railways, as Queensland Government Railways - hmmm - let's go back *quite* a few years shall we? Oh, wait - thats right, they dropped the 'Government' part of the railways, when they restructured into various buisness groups (Like QR National, QR Network, and others) - but well before that, were just known as Queensland Railways.

I think, this conversation, is OVER!

[JAMEZ001]

I love your optimism. :cool:

ps Although justification for worrying re-actions in this forum is blatantly clear to anybody with eyes, and as I have found in this place, it is sometimes best to become blind to the posts, and if we are unfair, eventually the pictures do arrive. And if we are right, the poster usually goes away.

Hi Burntruss & Dreddman,

Burntruss nicely done. Keep this up & you will be entering the halls of fame!.

Dreddman, once again you show attention to detail, & excellent choice of scenery items to use.
You have the knack of not only 'capturing' the essence of time & space,
but powerfully portraying the very 'life' of an era.
Truly inspiring work.

A question please......seeing as how your name-dropping some
long-gone 'essences' (well stinky fragrances of fuels :confused: :hehe: ),
would you perchance be able to do a Service Station pole-mounted faded & weathered
"Sign of the flying Red Horse" for me?. On a white circular faded pole please?.

I'm presently having a LBS*** attack, & don't recall the brand name!.

*** (Leaky Brain Syndrome. It comes with the dreaded SD's****) :sleep:
****(Senile Delinquency) :'( :cool: :eek: :hehe:

[ad602000]

Noel I recently uploaded a bunch of oz buildings to the dls among these there was a dilapidated service station with a sign, it did not have the flying horse on the sign but it would be a small matter to reskin that portion of the model by simply changing the texutre for the sign.

on this subject, @ all queenslanders, all these buildings were modelled from plans of buildings around regional queensland
cheers
pete

ps, if my leaky brain is correct that is an early logo for the plume oil company which ended up as mobil oil

[comtrain]

The Vacuum Oil Company was the first oil company established in Australia. Prior to this other brands of oil based products were marketed by overseas companies through their Australian agents.

The company set up their Queen Street, Melbourne, branch in February 1895, less than 30 years after Vacuum first started operations in the US. Vacuum Oil's first salesman in Australia, Mr David Clarke, sold the company's first barrel of lubricating oil to a gold mining operation at Eaglehawk, near Bendigo, on his first day in the job.

In March 1904, Vacuum Oil was officially incorporated under Victorian Law as a proprietary company, and in 1906 the company issued Australia's first ever chart of "Recommendations to Motorists" covering about 200 makes of car.

By 1908, Vacuum was growing rapidly and merged with the Colonial Oil Co, a company marketing kerosene and motor spirit, adding to Vacuum's specialty lubricant products. In 1916, Vacuum introduced its "Plume" and "Laurel" brands to the Australian market and a year later brought its first 100 gallon, horse drawn tank wagon into service.

As motor vehicles became more popular in Australia, Vacuum expanded its operations. In 1924 Vacuum opened its first bulk petroleum products terminal at Pulpit Point in Sydney and took delivery of its first imported bulk oil products cargo, a 1.5 million gallon shipment carried from the United States by the tanker "HT Harper".

A decade later, Vacuum introduced "Ethyl", Australia's first Super grade motor spirit. Around the same time in the US, Vacuum's parent company, Vacuum Oil Inc, merged with the Standard Oil Company of New York to become Socony Vacuum, then Socony Mobil that ultimately became Mobil Corporation. Vacuum replaced the famous Plume brand name with Mobilgas in 1954.

Hi Bill & Pete,

From memory that pole-mounted sign would have been this red-circled one. Not too sure of the dimension 'though. The service station probably only had say four bowsers out the front & a diesel one off to the side.
Bete if you like I can send you a GE (Google Earth) .kml/kmz file of the streetscape view of what's left of the old service station (now a car sales yard). It's on a corner lot in Deniliquin, but there will be others along our Narrandera_Tocumwal route.

And many thanks for a look-see at these awesome graphics!.:)

[Willem2]

Hi Noel,

Send me the info and I'll see what I can come up with, I need a new project anyway.

Cheers,

Bill.

Hi Bill,

Give me a couple of days & I'll find the relevant sites that apply along our route. I should be able to get some GE Streetscape shots at least, & maybe even an actual sign or equivalent.
It was illuminated, the circular steel band from memory would have been nearly a foot deep, & the perspex/plastic graphics shallow 'domes' probably protruded four or six inches from that. my guess is, that it would have had to be a minimum 20 feet up the pole, & about four to five feet in diameter.
For something like that I guess pole of some one foot lower diameter, stepping in two joins to say eight inches or more?.
But when you come to make it I'm sure you will get it 'engineered' correctly. :)
My guess is, that steel band was a shallow U_Shaped profile, to allow access to the flourescent internal lighting units, by flipping out a perspex dome. Not sure how they might have been secured, other than maybe a stainless steel constriction band of some sort?.

[Willem2]

Hi Noel,

thanks for that info I'll await your reply.

make a text that can be edited in trainz

OK, I boast...

Had quite a few request's over the past 3 years for 3ft-6in QR tracks and until recently, I swore to myself that I would NEVER do them or attempt to update the previous one's. However, in the last few days even my own conscience proved me wrong!

http://img24.imageshack.us/img24/9366/36trackage.th.jpg (http://img24.imageshack.us/my.php?image=36trackage.jpg)

Also, the Auran standard 4ft8-1/2 gauge track has all been updated for the FINAL time along with some trackside scenery junk, no more overlapping in junctions and for spur line's, the transparency has been deleted which caused a lot this distortion of one line jumping above the other.

Will upload soon ... in approx 30 years from this post.

Hi, long time no talk guys....

Yer, that was just a bit of boredom with G max, to tell you the truth, Ive lost the g max file, and all I have now is a few screenshots.....

However, hope is not lost. I have recentley got my 2nd computer running, and it now works better than the family computer (lol), and I have just installed G max on it...
I might look into starting another QR model, Perhaps a High Boilered B13 (originally F class) (see Locomotives in the Tropics Vol 1, page 47),
Or perhaps an A12 or A14 (Locomotives in the Tropics, Vol. 1, Page 37)...

Sorry for rehashing old posts guys but haven't been in here for a while and was catching up.

Dredd, do you mean like a radiator fan? I think they did. Used to clean these things inside and out so I should know but it was quite a few years ago. I'll contact some of my people and get back to you PM as soon as. These were one type of the English Electrics. There was also a 1200 class that looked fairly similar. We used to call the bull nose the 1250's......whilst I was typing that I had a flash of inspiration. I have a stack of the old ops manuals for all the old diesels out in the garage with all my Fireman to Driver training records. Unfortunately the EE's aren't amongst them but I'm sure they're there somewhere so I will keep looking Dredd, but will also contact my mates as well. Also made a HUUUUUGGGGGGEEEE find of some old plans that my Father-in-law must have given me at some stage (was a driver also, in QR for 45yrs on retirement) of some railmotors, Napier and Studebaker rail cars. These will be a bring along to a meeting for certain guys. Will pour through them for now, more detail later or anyone PM me. This is a screenshots thread after all not a waffle thread.

Uummm, I'd go a little easy on the ego trip trainz89 or you'll have more problems than the one you had with Dreddman. No-one likes a braggart. Just a little friendly advice.

[chuffbuff]

I Did Takes Some Gmax Snapshots Of My PB15's But They Diddn't Come Up.

THAT'S A POOR EXCUSE ..... SUCH CHEAP TALK!!!!

Why make the rest of us look like fools with this gibberish, as someone previously mentioned "This is a screenshot thread, not a waffling thread."

You are either deliberately trying to make it worse for the rest of us, the community will not stand to have this thread locked with such irresponsible and selfish nonsense.

Take it elsewhere!!!

Great screenies James. I'm looking forward to seeing more of that layout.

Thanks for the comments guys, once I get all the final track pieces down would some of you mind testing it for me? Perticularly if you have good AI programming skills, because in the past I've had difficulties with trains not choosing the right path, or mass blocking junctions.

As far as I am aware all of the track, signals, levers, stations and industries are inbuilt content for TRS2006, so the meat of it should be already there for you.

[dreddman]

To QR comedy corner.......:p
And now something completely different a Screenshot TUTORIAL!
As you all know 9well I hope you do?"...push the printscreen button on your keyboard to save a screenshot in the screenshot folder in your version of trainz What! you know something about computers and there is no screenshots folder there WELL dont panic it will be created when you take your first screen........use a image program to convert it from a tga to a jpeg ready to upload and post.
GMAX Screens (the best way to prove you made it) are just as easy!....but remember kiddies you only get one Screen simpley push the print screen button again ....then go to your image program and EDIT PASTE FROM CLIPBOARD! and save as a jpeg its that easy Kiddies.
SO REALY THERE IS NO EXCUSE FOR A DEVOLPMENT SCREEN!!!
Except if your computer commits suicide trainz89 dear sweet commissioner of QGR.
its unusual for someone to suddenly burst onto the scene and start creating STEAM....usually one would start with a box..followed by a pub (so one can get a beer)...and progress through the learning curve to finally attempt STEAM!
So one must wonder without anything on the DLS we suddenly have this great creator amonst us?....(gmax screen to save yourself at this stage trainz89)....or phone a friend if you have any?
I myself are quite P&s#%$ off and are sick of defending myself (I know friends not that I need to) but New evedence has come to light!!
Without a gmax mesh it is still possible to rekiud retexture rename if you try n rename the textures and text files you have trouble hhmmmmm?
in a error log you posted......(SEE we have long memories and are not all suffering CRAFT desease like Pete)
and yes you did manage a screen posts way back that none of us picked up on ....and it realy looks like Greg Cash's C17
"My QGR C17's MVHR QR C17 No.45 Was At The Same Spot 2 Hours Eailer When I Took The Screenshot & When I Took The Later Screenshot of QGR C17 No. 705 It Was 2 Hours Later At The Same Spot. The Locomotives Have The Same Mesh, Assets But They Have Different QR Running Numbers & Headboard Destinations Like No.45 Has Imbil And No.705 Has ESK."
http://www.auran.com/trainz/downloads/locomotives/kuid2_96997_763_1.jpg
and the address of the pic is the DLS!! Gregs c17 download pic!
So I bring it to your attention my friends that we have plagiarism amonst us here in OZ!
ATTENTION MODS unless trainz89 can produce proof (Gmax screens) I forward the motion he should be banned from the forums.
YOUR TURN Trainz89 we all await your response with baited breath!
Locomotive shortages were so desperate in the mid twenties that 25 C17's were imported from England from the Armstrong Whitworth &Co Ltd
They entered service in 1927 as No's 802-826 in July 1927

P.S. Dreddman is way out in front :hehe:

[cjgeddes]

mmmmmmm .............. Dreddman V's Trainz89 .............. no one will win, I just hope this thread is not the looser.
dont you mean vs ??

[dreddman]

It's not about winning ............
I think its more about community ethics
At first I thought I was simply standing up for myself and did'nt want this thread to degenerate to a school yard squabble.............
But you just cant go around modifying other peoples models and claiming them for yourself ........
After yesterdays remarks "I Need Permission" I had had enough and was thinking of walking away fron Trainz!
But after friends discovered that not only I but it was Greg Cash's model that was getting the Rekuid/Retexture/Rename treatment ....we had to stand up for Greg....or any other creator for that matter as you can see on the last page the texture renaming did not go well and it was still uploaded to Austrainz ? Anyway enough from me ........... I'm sure we all await a response from the person in question.
On another note I have decided to start a yahoo group where you will be able to get your hands on all my betas there will be 06/09 errors so dont come crying to me fix the errors and send me the fixes so with your help we can get all these QR beauties on the DLS ASAP!
Once I get the yahoo group up n online I will post a link here for you all to go shopping ;)

Nice!

I'm suprised by how many people actually ended up using those platforms I made 2 years ago.

I've made a newer version which has better texturing and such with a single yellow line and i'm working on one like above. Waiting to get a copy of TS2009 thought before I put them to better use because I wanna see how realistic they can turn out. I also changed the heights to be at 1.5m as it suits the trains in Sydney better. :P

Thanks,

I really like the platforms, i tried to make my own version to go along with the rest of my cityrail items i've created but it didn't turn out so good. Can't wait to get my hands on the new platforms.

Need a tester for the platforms?

Hi, long time no talk guys....

Yer, that was just a bit of boredom with G max, to tell you the truth, Ive lost the g max file, and all I have now is a few screenshots.....

However, hope is not lost. I have recentley got my 2nd computer running, and it now works better than the family computer (lol), and I have just installed G max on it...
I might look into starting another QR model, Perhaps a High Boilered B13 (originally F class) (see Locomotives in the Tropics Vol 1, page 47),
Or perhaps an A12 or A14 (Locomotives in the Tropics, Vol. 1, Page 37)...
You never know.....

Hurleyco


Interesting choice there Hurls...

(Highlighted)

Almost missing what you've stated there about the A12/A14. I for one had often wondered about seeing this lil gem in game myself, problem is the lack of info there is and a ton of well kep't secret meshes tucked away may allow possibly me to bring such a small wonder like this to the existance and reality of trainz, over due time ofcourse. Fair enough Hurls, you can do one too!

Now I'm no loco content creator, infact .. I'm still at the very bottom of the mountain, but seeing what others can do and have done in person and the way they go about it is an eye opening inspiration to even me and all who want to get involved to learn the ropes, hoops and hurdles of game art and design.

I never normally talk this much, so it must be time for a pic.. (Dreddy also remembers this).

http://img150.imageshack.us/img150/9720/a13x.jpg (http://img150.imageshack.us/my.php?image=a13x.jpg)

I've cut atleast 20000 polys out of a existing 40000 poly mesh, merged it with Aurans original PB15 mesh and cut a further 12000 polys, plenty of cutting to be done, then it's a matter of lining things up ... don't ask how many polys there are in the drivers to the left.

Cheers! :wave:

Hello all,

I've been away from Trainz for a while, getting back into the addiction again. I continue to be amazed at the quality of work being posted here. Thought I'd post some screenies of the Shorncliffe Branch I had been creating in 2006. Hopefully I'll import it into 2009, fine tune it then put it on the DLS.

Cheers, Kent.

Hey mate,

which victorian bus companies did you do and how do I look up the victrainz kuid on the download station?

ALSO, Has anyone noticed that someone has uploaded a MET Hitachi Engine spec and horn to the DLS??!? I searched frantically for an M and T car but unfortunately, that dream hasn't come true just yet :(

Silos are built-in content in TRS06. Not sure of the name, I think 'flour mill' was it. By Natvander IIRC.

P_dacey, the person making the hitachi for Trainz (not the same person as the one who released the Espec and hornsound) has been busy with life outside of Trainz. It will get done eventually :)

p_dacey, if you cant find the victorian buses on the dls, email me and I will send them to you most of them were melbourne suburban buses as well as a couple of vline, murrays and greyhound coaches. I'm not sure if the dls has gobbled them up recently as it did to some rollingstock I uploaded

Well done Dreddman! Will be great to see these locos come to life again in TRAINZ. We seem to have had a coup in QR. DA COMMISH HAS BEEEN SACKED. In the corporate world thats what happens though when you step on a few too many toes. Lots of people to help you on the climb up but they ain't gonna catch ya on the way down. :cool: Keep up the good work and keep them locos rolling

Thanks Glen......the commisioner was sacked and tried to get away with a large severence package but was stopped at the workshop gates by members of the MGCU.......and was stripped of all he ripped off. and sent home crying!
MGCU members much happier with their working conditions now that ..."Tha Commish has left tha building!"......settled down to the task of recreating QR of old.........ordered TRS09 WBE yesterday so we shall see what weird and wonderfull errors we will have in the weeks to come!
QR C17 black is now ready to download at QDRTrainz....(any number you want)...........FREE for everyone ..except trainz89...........thats why I ask for your Auran username when you join :hehe: :hehe: :hehe: :hehe:

Once they're released, they should cause quite a stink I guess.

Now I've really put my foort in it! :confused:

My My My .................who turned the Sarcasm Channel on?
I was enjoying my life and playing TRAINZ since ver 1.1
:o with great Friends I have met on these forums over the years ..many I have met personly and others on the phone...then someone like you turns up and instead of joining a community of friends sharing information ideas and models ..helping each other to get content on the DLS for everyone to enjoy!
so the internet is not realy such a anonymous place is it
"mastermichael8"AT"coldmail.com".....you left clues everywhere.......
maybe you should go back to your kiddie games
"It is unfortunate for the community that you seem to be a person with a wealth of QR information and could possibly of been a valuable member of the QR/Australian community"........but you chose the "Dark Side of the Force!"
AND IN FACT!.......I MUST THANK_YOU
;) :wave: :eek: .................................................. ......?
For years I have been trying to recreate the Brisbane Valley Line of old infrastructure locos rolling stock ..........posting my creations on the DLS when complete for others to enjoy ... the locos and rolling stock I get many requests for via email yahoo etc I cant always send everything to everyone and they have many mistakes otherwise they would be on the DLS!
You have inspired me to Create QDRTrainz....................to share test and enjoy QR!..........."Shame you are not a team player"
But I'm sure many other QR fans will thankyou for being able to get their grubby little hands on boxes with a cylinder with a pipe out the back that Breathes Steam...............
So GOOD_BYE trainz89

Are those... trees? :o

Hello Jamez001,

This may seem a trite conical, & I certainly don't wish to in fir
that this forest is in fir -ier than what may be cone-spired to be
an elliptical ecclusion.
However from close observation, it would allegedly be cone-strued
that that particular forest has been the habitat of the dredded
Cone-Shaping-Twirly-Bird of the far northern reaches of the little-known
Isle of Wong.
Mr Wong was quite happy to reside here, until one day a twitter was heard,
above a huge pile of almost denuded tweez. This had the dezired effect of
Mr Wong making twacks for far-off distant places.
And so the community of twitters were left to their own vices.
That of conicalizing the collony of coniferz ewe see hear.
:o
:mop:
sigh.

Hi Bill,

Hi Lenice Dreddman & various sundried observerz, :eek:

Thanks for the encouragement, but you shouldn't.
I'm bad enough as it is!. :hehe:

Has anyone used any of Willem 2's great stockyards &/or
irrigation offerings yet?. :sleep:
If so may we have some screenies here please?.
(And yes, I need to do some too). :)

Bill the quality of your work is brilliant!. :wave:

[nbrettoner]

Hi Burntruss,

Can you tell me please,
those rail-motors in your recent posting.
Are they TRS2004 compliant, or just TRS2006?.
And if TRS2004, where may I obtain same please?.

AND Happy Birthday!!!!! :wave:

[burntruss]

the HPC401 actually came with TRS2006, theyre inbuilt, but i dont know if maybe someone could export them or something to make them work in 04?

and thanks :) heaps of nice ppl around here :D:D

[Willem2]

Burntruss,

Happy Birthday




Thanks Noel for the compliment.

Cheers,

Bill.

[nbrettoner]

Thanks Burntruss & Bill.

How's things up north (QLD)?
Any improvements in flood-affected areas yet?.

[dreddman]

Thanks Burntruss & Bill.

How's things up north (QLD)?
Any improvements in flood-affected areas yet?.

Noel Bill's not up north? and it would take 40 days and nights for Bill to even get his toes wet!.....he might just run out of beer by then!! :p

[nbrettoner]

Really sorry about my slack communication there. :'(
I was meaning the QLD enquiry for you dreddman. :wave:
Bill I apologise for any inference of webbed feet!. :confused:
LBS has once again triumphed over cognitive engagement.
(LBS = "Leaky Brain Syndrome").

And no!. (before I firmly enlodge my other foot!), :eek:
Dreddman I do not mean that you have
(or have not, as the case may be, which is heavy, so I'll rest it),
webbed feet.

Of the Dredded kind, of course. (Water. That is). :o


sigh.

Now something a little more serious (truly).
Does anyone remember the screen grabs of about two years ago, similar to Constable Paintings?. There were some exquisite water shots & pond edgings with reeds etc. A very interesting effect. There was a wonderful use of ripple effect, lighting & soft pastel colours. I'd like to get in touch with the person who did that please.

So far I have yet to test the engine files, and performance, alas another problem froze up the computer and I will not get back to it till tomorrow.

For The First Time I Admit Defeat Against A More Skillful Person Named Dreddman. For The First Time As A Primary School Teacher For 25 Years In My Career & Now I Am Facing My Fears Of Not Becoming A Team Player In Any Field Of Work.

I Believe You Got To The Point In Your Last Post On Thursday The 5th Of March 2009, 09:17 PM That Made Me Realize What I Have Done Wrong, When I Joined Three Years Ago I Was A Learner Just Like My Students & I Had Some Experience With Trainz.

In August 2007 When I Made My First Post; Dreddman You Were The Only Person I Knew From DLS & You Helpt Me Along The Way. Now You Are The Person That I Look Up To & Say " I Want To Be Just Like Him". Now I Repect You As One The Greatest Member Of The Trainz & Also The QR Community. Your Work Is To Be Rewarded Because They Are So Well Made They Look Realistic To The Real Thing

I Plead With Your Heart Please Give Me A Second Chance To Start Over Because Your Message Set Me Straight & I Wish To Become A Team Member & A Key Player In Queensland Trainz Because I Have Studied For 4 Years With The Workshops Railway Musuem Learning Both Steam & Diesel Locomotive Design & Operation, Railway Infustructure, History Of All The Lines Built In QLD, Signal & Safekeeping.

From Today I Pleadge To Stop Making Upseeting Comments Or Silly Posts About Or Containing Trainz Users. Can We Please Call A Truse????

I Wish To Hear From You Dreddman

Yes Tom, it's true. I've fallen into the trap of having so much on the go and not getting around to finishing anything.
Now I have the added dilemma of do I update things for 09 or leave them as is for 06 ??? :(

im presuming most people here have 06 and 09 (maybe)
i only have 06 so id prefer it to be in 06, but thats only my opinion, its up to you if you want .

Loved that pic you posted DAVIDO. Looks like real model trains. And it is a pity they don't look like that in game.

Why don't they look like this in Trainz ? :(

Hello David
I am pretty sure one day they will. I have had a look at Rail Simlator and they get some nice textures into game. However IMHO the game itself is crap!
What we need from Auran pretty quickly is a new version of Jet. I guess the old version has not much changed in 5 years?
Every time I think of the waste that Auran caused with Fury.. I become furious. Just a small amount of that money could have produced what we all want.
We know they are not going to change anything for Engineers. But they sure better be thinking of a major upgrade for 2010 :(
Love those 38's and would love to see the Newcastle carriages that we saw in previous screenshots.
Cheers
Rod

Thanks for the kind words guys, and great stuff as always David :D

Hey Trent, would it be possible if you could send me some pics of those containers with the hatches on top? Would like to have a go at making one tonight.

Tom :)

P.S. flewy69er, that route is looking pretty good :) (Was up at Newcastle about a month ago and it looks very similar to that...)

[burntruss]

man i want them 38's so bad! lol, and the carriages! they all look amazing

WOW! a 422 class! i absolutely love the 422s! ive been obsessed with them since i loved trains! the ARG 22 class that you made is a 422, but i want an actual NSWGR 422. hopefully some day that will be on the DLS?
if that will go in 06? isnt that just like a render model, wont work in trainz?

[dreddman]

FIRST!..................TOM Wow!! on Patchey's layout..Wow! thats what its all about....................
Secondly.....trainz89? It's not about who beat who?.....We are all friends here and try to help each other as much as we can for the common good of Australian Trainz.........not for Tit for Tat and helping yourself to someone's lunch.
I have thought about this most of the day.
and decided I will allow you access to QDR............but anymore B%LL#(^T and i will ban you from QDR and report you to a Auran Mod......your on probation citizen..............
1300 class made it into Trainz at 7.16 tonight after 7 exports and minor/majior fixes ...construction time about 25hrs
(I'm going to do some gardening tomorrow lol)
basic blue texture except for the front many things to adjust this beast has 3 animated fans ...........fair bit to fix on 1300 and 1225 before I upload to QDR.........next QDR upload will be C17 Brown Bomber maybe tomorrow night only needs a few texture adjustments
QDR presents the QR 1300 Class

While I love 09 to death, without the NSW signals, it just doesn't do it for me, I'm content playing 06, which has never dissapointed :)

I had the same problem when I imported my route into 09, the problem mainly being that the NSW signals would not show all clear if they were set up before a station/multiple industry, (I'm assuming you're having this problem) but i overcame the problem by deleting my stations/Industry Object where the NSW signals were set up before and replacing them. The signal glitches seem to rarely happen now as well! The only problem I'm having now is that the NSW repeater signals don't work :confused: If you need any more help send me a PM :) !

By the way, excellent work David on the 422 class, the 38's and the carriages :D

And a very Happy Birthday Tom :cool: !

Cheers,


Matt

[Raichase]

Matt - Nothing like that, I'm talking building new routes. Turnout signals and the like refuse to show clear even if the correct route is set.

[comtrain]

Yes Tom, it's true. I've fallen into the trap of having so much on the go and not getting around to finishing anything.
Now I have the added dilemma of do I update things for 09 or leave them as is for 06 ??? :(

David

It seems that most stuff built for 2006 runs in 2009, except steam engines.
However I see so many scripts out there particularly Andi_06 stuff.
I wonder if we could put an engine into game and as well as sellecting coal oil and water, number of passengers and things like multi textures etc. might we one day be able to sellect 2006 or 2009. This might work if textures need to change or if a new config is required?
Many are starting to understand that steam engine files need to change. I am sure their are so many smart people out there that will figure out a way around the 2009 problem with compatability.
However in the meantime I would like to see some upgrades to all your 2004 stuff, hopefully it will only be config changes.
One particularly annoying thing being the smoke effect on the Explorers in 2006. Each time I reload 2006 I lose the fix you gave me, forget where I stored it and back to sheets of shadow instead of smoke. When I make the change the loco gets saved with my kuid, and I lose it each rebuild.
However having said all that, and knowing you creative types hate going back over old stuff :D
Love all your new temptations
Cheers

They are actually in game but alas....not completed yet.

[burntruss]

well i seriously cannot wait! xD

[Davido]

Rod,
Things will run in 09 compatibility mode but I think it's going to be a whole new version for native mode and that means WORK!
As far as the 04 stuff goes, I didn't update it 'cos 06 was suppose to be backward compatible.
I'm such a disorganized guy, I have stuff everywhere so going back over old stuff is a pain....lol.....that's why I don't :D

Change the smoke_fastlife to 0.01 to fix the exhaust problem.

Cheers

Thanks mate :wave:
Long winded message gets satisfactory outcome and such a simple fix too :hehe:
And of course we both are thinking along same lines, I guess? Probably better to build everything in 2009 from now on, because saves on future upgrades at least for a few years. Also those not using 2009 are offered reasons to upgrade. THe upgrade puts money in Aurans Accounts... and full circle.. the more money Auran have the better chance we have that they will build a magic new version of Jet, or ditch it and use one of the existing great engines! and back to the beginning, we should get those renders running in Trainz... see a simple decision :p
Cheers
Rod
Whilst writing the fix on the wall in pencil! Now will I see it next time I need it?

Yer i have been looking around at some good stations like Newcastle to base a layout on.

[flewy69er]

Did you make these carriages yourself?
Look very impressive, any chance of being up for download?

Can anyone tell me why this is happening to my signals in TC?

[Davido]

Michael, they were made by Natvander and I don't know what his plans for them are at the moment.
He's taking a long break from Trainz. So when/if he gets back to it we'll decide what to do then.

Cheers

Matt - Nothing like that, I'm talking building new routes. Turnout signals and the like refuse to show clear even if the correct route is set.

I was having that problem as well, mainly with the 6 light double aspect signals but they seem to work fine now in 09 with compatibility mode turned on.

Matt :)

Thanks again for the comments guys :) Here's a present for Trent (and Ghosty..)

Well its been a long time since I have posted on here, but my plans of doing the Brisbane Valley line, I have giving up and I will leave it to the best guys on here.
My new layout is Caboolture to Maryborough West and Maryborough/Walkers.
I have done has far as GlassHouse Mountains andn this is with the double track between Caboolture and Beerburrum, this will be a long layout to build and Im only doing the track and some buildings the rest can go in when the track is layed.

I hope all you Queenslanders are having fun on trainz and keep the good work up

Cheers Patchy, have had a ball going home today but had a ball and took over 300 shots so have a lot to look through to see what models I will be tackling and did take a few of the bogies on different rolling stock and locos to model too.

[ad602000]

apparently, someone made some 4 wheel coal hoppers with animated loads for QR people. Would anyone know who that was?

Hi Alby6,

Have you just returned from QLD?, if so:-
From the looks of that cyclone off QLD I'm sure your feeling happier to be home,
but at the same time hoping that thing (or one of it's cousins!) keeps away from Darwin!.

To all our several QLD Trainzer friends, I'm praying for safety, & a rapid return to a floodless 'normal' life.
You are not forgotten, even if the focus changes off you sometimes.

:wave:

[alby6]

Attn Patchy, I also got some snaps of a loco up at Port Douglas way, so I may be doing this as another project too.
