[QUOTEAn Oz version of Trainz would be great, if N3V weren't into chasing the bucks they might consider it. N3V's view seems to be that the money is to be made from Europe and North America. I reckon that a TRS version with good Aussie content would be popular in other countries.]

What's wrong with them chasing the dollar ?. Pretty sure if a company is to survive then they go for what sell's best, There are a couple of Aussie's giving the Payware side of the game a crack. Instead of whinging you should give it a go your self if you think your good enough that is as Europe and the US have raised the bar age's ago for Content Creation and i doubt we'll ever catch them.

Would of thought the old Aussie cultural cringe was long dead, apparently not.

So it would make sense to come back to its original roots.

apart from the inbuilt in the original three or four versions of the game there has always been an emphasis on o'seas from whoever ran the company. Although we may not like it, o'seas makes sense there are not many virtual ferroequinologists in oz. Yes we have made a lot of content and our thread is one of the most vibrant, but so are others with a much bigger market

Ron, have you tried using invisible track to create the cuttings? just lay it in the contours you want and raise the ground under it, then texture it

cheers

@Falcon, check your email, I just sent you a message aswell as a PM.

@Ron, yeah; you could just low the track down to create a cutting.

Cheers

[ad602000]

No michael you use lengths of invisible track to create the cutting, thereby leaving the actual track at the right level

Michael (trainz89), can you pick up your email please, I have more stuff for you.

Coolangatta - 1955

G'day Everyone,

@Peter, fair enough. I didn't know you could do that. I just generally lower the track down until I get a cutting. Which I had to do for Southport Railway Station

@Stationmistress, yes, I am comming sir.

Alright, some fine shots of my WIP, I am just adjusting Coolangatta to the original format as she was in 1955, as I was correcting my earlier play around attempts to create the station and enviroments. I added the overbridge over the railway, railway reserve which adjoined the fenceline and the cutting though Kirra Hill. Lanham Street was correct to fit the UBD Maps from 1956, as I had it over where the present Chalk Street is now, which is sitting on the railway alignment. I have put in the stationmasters residence as listed in the Lands Department Survey of 1957, which was right next door to an amusement park. What a great place to have fun and trainspot at the same time.

Let Me Know Your Thoughts

Michael, I just remembered I haven't sent you those W class plans yet that you'd asked for and which I had promised (they're scanned and ready to be sent - I've had a lot on my mind lately so it completely slipped it.) - if I remember rightly I think ad602000 asked for them as well? In any case, if anyone would like them, let me know and I'll email them off right away.

Mate, send them through; I would love to have a look at them, when I am not building Queensland Content.

Good job Willeam2 on Maroochydore and Valdora the cane loco's if they get released will make a good pair of locos on my route. My
route is a Fairymead sugar mill's line to Yandarin or Bucca the line has had a big cut back so I am only doing whats left of the once extensive
network of line over north side of the Kolan river.

 

[misterchugg]

try pressing alt + enter

no. it doesn't work

thanks

Snip.....Instead of whinging you should give it a go your self if you think your good enough that is as Europe and the US have raised the bar age's ago for Content Creation and i doubt we'll ever catch them.
Cheers Mick.

What is wrong with dreaming, you just never know what might happen. Regarding content creating speak for yourself, I am doing MY part as best as I can. So do quite a few other Oz content creators.

Payware is a different kettle of fish, if you are not good enough in delivering good stuff, no one will buy but as for Freeware, well, as said, some of us do alright .

Cheers
