Hello Aurélien, For me, a fully reflective PBR material never looks as good as it did with m.reflect. I mentioned this some years ago: https://forums.auran.com/threads/shiny-chrome-in-pbr.175512/ Maybe I should have experimented with the roughness value. Regards Paul

Hello, @schnackel: very interesting, thank you for this comment. I have never ever heard about it or seen it being used, but yes it is in the KIND Engine description. Thank you very much. Regards, Paul

Hello, More than once I have told the people that slowing down way in advance for amber/yellow makes no sense, at least not for many European railways. Speed reduction will usually set in at the location of the yellow signal. The only requirement indicated by yellow is to be able to stop before...

Hello, Maybe this will shed some light on the issue. I repeated the same test with a GWR AEC railcar instead of a railcar of my own, a Belgian type. There was a striking difference in behavior: the GWR railcar made an immediate stop when the Halt Train command became active, while my railcar...

Hello, @WestSideRailways: I have not found a general solution. I use Drive To / Halt Train to make the train stop properly. I care less about the passengers loading. I sometimes use Open Doors L/R from the Passenger Door Control rule. It will open all doors but some may open/close twice...

Hello. On a route that I sometimes use, actually a merger of several smaller ones, I did not have problems with the AJS invisible stations. Why do they fail in the TLR test and not on my route? The answer is that I always use a Halt Train command after the Drive To command. Now I did a test...

Hello ColPrice2002, That sounds interesting. I use such a "library" and with Copy Commands From, the bits and pieces are inserted into the final schedule. But how can I make the Dispatch Manager use a schedule created in Edit Session / Driver Setup? Does it look for a driver with a schedule...

Hello, Thanks for your suggestions. It was the stations themselves. Even with a Navigate To command given "manually" the train did not stop and load. I replaced the stations by one of those listed above (created by vincentrh) and it worked. Now all this does not seem to be easier than creating...

Hello, My first-time test of TLR. I am interested in passenger trains. I constructed a test route with 12 stations, including a loop. The automatic system generated over 600 lines... that is too much. Breaking the loop reduced the number, but it was still overwhelming. Then I switched of the...

Hello Toni, Don't worry, it has not ruined the map for me, not at all. I have not spent much time surveying the map, but so far I have not even found where the textures are missing. Everything looks fine. I guess these textures have been used sparingly or maybe not for 100% coverage of the...

Thank you, HPL. Paul

Good afternoon Toni, Beautiful, very beautiful work. Incredibly scenic, so different from what I have seen before in Trainz. The video is amazing too, almost haunting. Thank you very much for making this route available. I am missing 20 assets. I am sure that they are all part of the...

Thanks for the replies. I was not aware of pguy's rule (although I once downloaded it). It seems to me that it requires the use of EIT paths and mission codes all over the route. On the route in which I would like to try timetables, I use EIT only in a limited number of situations, where I found...

Hello, It may sound a bit negative, but when will we see the passenger TLR? Actually all I would like to see is a timetable for each train, an editable timetable. Timetables likes the ones we had 20 years ago, before we had the web as the only source. But then one that I can edit. I see...

Hello pware, You are right. But "may not appear as camera facing" is a formulation which still asks for confirmation: does it happen and is it disturbing or not? And the other effect, that of the viewing angle leading to a sudden total disappearance or reappearance, is a different phenomenon...
