Australian screenshots

Hi Bearcat, nice screenshots.

In your second shot you may have to insert a spline point in your powerline.
It appears to be in the second last carriage.
(Just tought I let you know)

Cheers,

Bill.

Yes thanks Bill I noticed it just after I posted the screenshot (face plant)
its fixed on the route now - I promise:hehe:
 
Experimenting with something a little differently, but I still think its missing 'something'....

Long time no chat mate :hehe:

How about a old ford or Holden near the house ?

@Mules & Axe, looking good the two of you.

Muliebuck, I don't know what you think is missing, looks pretty good to me.

That 'Nature Strikes Back' is brilliant too.

The following were taken on your NSW Countryside 1 module:







Cheers,

Matt.
 
Surprisingly, I was never really 'happy' with that module, but just ten minutes ago, finished a new one, courtesy of Vicrail for the track diagrams and a fellow trainzer, you know who you are!, for invaluable advice and assistance, its become a 'reality' as it were. Its a three board modular, E/W route, called VR Longwarry, based off real world trackplans, but is fictional in nature and form.

It went through a few 'texture' revisions, before its final 'paintwork' was settled on, so apologies for the mismatched 'images'.

Nice Mulie :) May I suggest 2 things?

Do you rotate your trees when you put them down?

And for extra detail, maybe you should put a dark colour beneath your trees to indicate shadows, though this can be tricky without the proper technique.

Of course these are just suggestions :)

Some great shots coming out of the woodwork right now. Rather puts my little project below to shame. The BKX project has made some progress with the addition of ladders and handrails:

Comments and criticism welcome.

Cheers, Evan.
 
Rbar_164, I believe (and I may be wrong) that I've got the surveyor to 'randomly rotate' items as they're placed, but of course, being lazy, I use copy/paste a fair bit at times, so that probably gives the 'uniform' look, but I'll endeavor to take your advice and see what I can do in future :)
 
Bearcat 245 Where did you got those tuscan RUB cars which are in your screenshots on page 1027 are they new or private reskins?
 
Matt - I like what I see, and that goes for all the other talented creators who have been posting some wonderfully inspirational stuff of late, well, here's a foray into something 'a little different'...

Fictional representation of VR Daylesford

Thanks, to you and Muliebuck- nice to know I'm impressing the right people.:p

As for the matter of the missing power car, that consist was SBN, SBN, SFN, MHO; what did i miss? I honestly have no idea!:confused:

Edit: Never mind, just saw Evans response.

Shame on you, Bearcat, playing on my ignorance like that!:hehe:

Matt.

Matt on most of the express type passenger trains they would run a normal sitting car like a FS between the aircon cars, and the guards van, which were first class for the second class passengers.

This also happen on the express's with sleeping cars they would often have a second class sitting car on the end.

Even the Indian Pacific back in the old days would have a few sitting cars on the end, these were for sitting passenger who were only travelling on the NSW part of the trip - they were added and removed at the hill. You could not book on the IP part of the train for travel withing NSW. You could Join the train but only for interstate travel. I often travelled in the siting cars between Bathurst and Sydney.

The IP also often had MHO's or the KB mail vans - an MHO with out center doors added to rear of the train for the Sydney - Broken Hill part of the trip

More pointless time-wasting in Surveyor, an hour and a half produces a half-way decent small modular NSWGR route, I present...NSWGR Sleipner Junction
