I checked both my in-box and junk mail folder every few minutes for a full hour after their web site said they had sent me an email. Nothing turned up in that time, or in the next 24 hours. I explicitly “white listed” their email address (as suggested by the web site) and repeated the process...

Actually, I did try to open an account with freeimage.host today. My username, email address and password were all accepted, but they kept failing all day to send an email with a link to activate my account. So screw them too.

Looks like I’ll be using freeimage.host or some other site next time I want to post an image. Even if it works for me in Australia, there’s no point using Imgur if parts of the world cannot see it. And they made a mess of the uploading interface, so screw them. I feel like an “elbows up” Canadian. 💪

So, in brief, it really is a dynamic environmental shadow. That implies there is some kind of rectangular mesh object somewhere up in the sky casting that shadow. If it was my problem, I would set the World Origin to 0 degrees latitude and the time of day to 12 noon. The sun should then be...

Is it really a shadow? Does the dark square move when you change the time of day?

He says on his website that email replies might take a day or two. Keep an eye on your junk mail folder, it may go there instead of your in-box. Not that I know anything about that creator. I am just reading what’s on his site.

A quote from the BritishLocoWorks3D website: "If there is a problem with anything I have sent you, do feel free to contact me and I will try to help to resolve the issue." His email address is shown using the "My Team" menu. So ask him where all the dependencies are and why he hasn't already...

Regarding KIND product assets, it's quite schizophrenic. CM can preview some and not others, but I can't figure out what the deciding factor is. e.g. these 2 commodities <kuid:68213:60047> Mine de-watering pump 01 load - visible preview in CM. <kuid2:68213:60036:1> Roller Sakai SV-510D -...

Content Manager (CM) can display previews of tracks of KIND procedural-track. However, it can't display components such as the sleepers, chairs and rails as individual assets, even though they are of KIND procedural-track too. The preview window opens, but it's just blank. Why is that? Is there...

I would also request some measure of texture count too (e.g. draw call count for each LOD). It can have more effect than polygon count in some cases.

Another valuable lesson. Third-party sites have some great-looking things, but the quality control is at best "variable". At least with the DLS you know that its content had to pass certain validation checks in order to be accepted for upload (increasingly so after about trainz-build 2.9). And...

Probably, but it was only a few hours of 1 day and you gained valuable knowledge of what can and can't be done. So not a total waste at all.

Just expanding on what grazlash said; while T:ANE SP2 (trainz-build 4.5) can read trainzmesh files, it cannot read PBR texture materials, so the asset will be faulty. There are also several configuration elements that changed between T:ANE and TRS19, in particular the tags that control the LOD...

Yes, let's see the environmental life cycle analysis showing whether this loco qualifies as running on green, blue or grey hydrogen. The claim of zero emissions means nothing otherwise.

Hard to read but the name of the texture appears to be PBR pavers A111.
