graffiti

proberly not the place to put this but is was bought up in this forum
i don't support vandelism of any kind.but i live in the real world and hope they catch the culprits who graffitied the s303.
i try to make my trainz as realistic as possible
but if it comes to censoring what is uploaded to the DLS and become POLITICALLY CORRECT we'd be banning all the steam locos and desiels for assiting global warming,and anything else that may cause harm.
we are all induvidals and everyone has right to voice his/her opinion.

cheers,

I am sorry did you say you are not supporting vandalism?
Oh good then you will not be showing your younger friends graffiti when you demonstrate Trainz? You will not be posting pictures of it in public forums, and you will not be releasing any of this crud on our DLS... will you?
If that is not support, I don't know what is...

Hi Patchy, the graffiti covered QR QLX wagons are mine. There are rolling stock and scenery versions. Just search for kuid 59737 on the DLS.

There has already been a long and sometimes nasty debate about the merits or otherwise of uploading grafitti to the DLS and I would not like to see it start up again.

For those who may be interested those wagons are photo skinned with images of real wagons that were stored in Brisbane a few years ago.

Cheers, Geoff.

Guys can we please ensure this remains civil.

Unfortunately, graffiti is around. And if we want our trainz to look realistic, this is a part of it. I don't condone graffiti. But, it is a reality. To me, not putting it in trainz is akin to denying it. It would be like not having any dirty locos or wagons in TRS. Which would be like denying that trains get dirty (even the Spirit).

Now, to go and use a photo of real graffiti, that I don't agree with. It is using a person's 'tag' which would be advertising it. But, to make some 'coloured dirt' on a freight wagon. Well, it's realistic.

And it's an unfortunate fact of life. You don't have to use those versions. But if they end up in a screenshot, then so be it.

Again, I don't condone graffiti. But, I do accept that it is a part of reality. An unfortunate part, but still a part.

Myself though, I probably won't make a reskin with graffiti on it. Unless it is of course that easy to remove 'graffiti' (finger writing in the dirt on locos...). Or unless I'm making a very specific object, such as a specific station that is in a more graffiti prone area.

Well in my personal opinion i doubt that anyone willing to Graffiti ( Espescially trains ) will be seen on a train related forum...

 

[Mitchey]

Good point there,

Although I feel somewhat guilty for posting my screenshot now...

Sorry people.

I think graffiti has it's place in Trainz. Although, instead of using traditional "tags" that one seems to find all over ex SRA grain hoppers and cement hoppers (what is it about these wagons that attract the graffiti), tags like "Trainz 08" or "username" would be a little amusing.

I like weathered trains, I like dirty trains. I don't like to SEE graffiti on my trains, but it happens. If someone released an S-Set model with graffiti, well, it would be accurate of some of the S-Sets, but it wouldn't be the same as a dumped, unloved looking freight wagon with tags on the side.

hmm strange this discussion is going on this long. I gathered that our screenshots are to try to recreate realism not show a perfect world correct? therefore its inevitable that your going to get wagons or locos with graffiti on them. its not a question of morals its a question of making your shots look believable.

screentshots do not condone graffiti or any other type of illegallity to me, seems a bit silly carrying on to that end.

having said that, nice shots chaps.

Hello All

This is not a graffitti discussion Forum but rather a Trainz Discussion Forum.
