Hi Everyone!

I've just been fiddling around with a little route (currently 1 baseboard).

Could you let me know what you think? Is it worth making into a proper route?


Thanks a lot!
Mitch.

Thanks for the birthday wishes, Bill and Craig.

Mitchey: Looking good mate! You may want to check the HighRes QLD grass textures I have available, for your route. Click my sig.

I like the surrounding hills and scenery, it's good, maybe expand it a little bit, but not full-blown, 100 board map, that's a bit over the top. Experiment, play around, see what you can come up with. Great so far!

To guard against burnout, don't make it too big. Keep it at a workable size.

7A in the Philip Creek sidings with other bits of rollingstock.

Yeppen trestle

Long low trestle on QR's Central Line. Trestle of over half a km crosses the flood plains of the Fitzroy River.This was replaced when the Central Line was rerouted south to Rocklands Junction. This is from my QR Rockhampton route.

Thanks for the comment Jan. The trees aren't too bad for a relative beginner.
Guess I learned a bit looking at your trees the best TRS has had.
Cheers Will

Very nice Cook, I always like how you capture the 'feel' of the Pufing Billy area.

Hi FirstSoloFlight,

I've downloaded your textures twice now, and tried them in Trainz, but both times I have tried them the textures don't show up in the Textures Menu in Surveyor. It just comes up with blank squares where the textures are supposed to be. I am running TRS2006.

Any suggestions?
Thanks!

Coal From Box Flat

2323 & another 2300 prepare to depart from Fisherman Islands to Box Flat

Having come off the Main Line at Bundamba, the empty train drops down the rather severe grade, over Bundamba Creek on an old timber trestle on a tight curve.

Heading along the branch at about 20kph.

Loading at Box Flat

On the way back to the Island, passing Pat Rafter Arena

Last shot, departing the Cleveland Branch at Lytton Junction.

Mitch,

The textures should be fine for TS04 and beyond. Some people seem to get them to work, others don't. It's a real mystery to me so far, as I have no real idea as to why.

My only suggestions are:

1. Make sure your Trainz version is the latest patch release.
2. Download the latest video card drivers.
3. Run in DirectX, not OpenGL.
4. Run in 24bpp, not 16bpp. (Textures are 24bpp, this is looking like the most likely option).
5. Lastly, if all the above fail, download Texture Tools 2 from the nVidia SDK website.

Regards,
FSF.

Thanks for the birthday wishes guys!

FSF,

Where can I find the bpp? Is it in the options menu? And what does Texture Tools do?

Thanks!

I've been watching your pics for a while now Cook. The route is really looking fantastic. I love your texturing, very nice. And the mist fits in perfect! I"ve always had a soft spot for the PBR.
Keep up the fantastic work!
Daniel
