Australian screenshots

OK how to I put this in a manner that I do not get banned for = remembering its not what I am saying but how I am saying it that gets me in problems.
Do you people not read all the posts in a thread or do you have some type of memory problem.

Find so often in threads of late having to repeat myself so many times.

Hes asking you to replace an engine spec. I've done it on all the A Classes I have, along with their horns and engine sounds. Surely an esteemed creator like yourself with so many assets on the DLS should be able to do this no problem
 
H222
I have sent a mesh based on very scarce photos of FA logo(all pacnat now) I have re sized the logo to suit, based on an Austrains example(probably wrong for the pixel counters) The grilles disappeared inadvertently my error. My advice is that if you stopped dipping your keyboard in sarcasm and perhaps assisted in finding things to assist like photos demonstrating your point here that something is wrong, you would get a lot further with getting what you want rather than acting like someone in effect demanding all is dropped for them. Or you could ignore my advice and if you don't like it don't download it. Try building it yourself if you are not satisfied with the standard. I responded very early to your request many weeks ago and I sent you an example, giving you the opportunity to have input. I'm still waiting, be proactive instead of taking pot shots

G'day Pete, Dave and Jamie,
Tim did a couple of FA F7s a while ago which can be found here: http://trainzforge.weebly.com/f7-au.html
I believe he achieved the side lettering by manipulating the font in photoshop and managed to get a pretty good front logo. Maybe if you ask nicely he will lend you those ones to use. ;)

Cheers

Thanks stevo, but I wont be making any further changes. The main lesson I learned is that you cant please everyone, take it or leave it. I dont get paid for it and I have other things to do as well as what is after all just a game
 
Ad60200, I don't believe that H222 was dipping his keyboard in "sarcasm". He was only trying to help.

I know you addressing H222, but if I knew how to build them, I would probably give it a go, but I don't know what to do.

The closest I can get is TRS2004 or UTC Paint Shed, whatever version Paint Shed came with. I've done a few items in Paint Shed, but I'm not sure if they'd work in any build version of TS12 or not.

While they may not be as accurate models, they are reasonable.
 
I was being sarcastic, and I do apologise. I did sense some hostilities from bearcat due to another thread and I again apologise. However, these are my favourite 'modern' locos (along with the X class) and so I will be a bit picky when it comes to the details, especially something such as the logo that sticks out on the green. You can not please anyone, but you should at least try and get it as accurate as possible
 
Jamie,

Whilst I don't wish to butt in, could I offer some advice?
Sarcasm only makes things sour and it's a tad childish.
If you would like to see a certain thing changed
or improved, perhaps send Dave an email with info and photos and explain exactly what you'd like done. That way, there is no misunderstanding and everyone's happy.

This is is how I do it and I've been assisting Dave with the Sydney EMU's lately.
 
Some Canungra tramway mapping material from 1916 has been released ONLINE by the State Library QLD and so I will post details here as I know some are doing that Australian route. You probably need to let these load onto your screen and do screen shots and merge them later using photobucket etc

Spent a week in Brisbane over the new year,me and the brother went country one day and stumbled across the Buaedessart branch,what a sweet find!!.I'm glad you auzzies don't rip up dissused lines,It was a great day poking around and researching the lines history,I would have liked to walk some of the right-of-way which was covered in waist high grass but me brother talked me out of it with the mention of snakes lol,being a kiwi who's never seen one before in there natural habitat thought to myself 'bugger that'.
Any help appreciated.

Patchy,

Let me be the first one to express my gratitude and admiration to you, for the outstanding Cooma-Bombala line. The absolute attention to detail, it really looks country NSW. I particularly love the boulders used that are unique to the Snowy Mountains.
Sorry about the dodgy screenies, they don't do it full justice. 5/5 mate! :)

Hi Andrew, Yes what an interesting history the Beaudesert Branch has had. It was built in 1885 from Bethania - Logan Village and was completed on the 21st September, 1885. The line was then extended another 32 kilometres to Beaudesert and was completed on the 16th May 1888. If you are planning on building the Beaudesert Branch, I have already got a project on it and can view my thread. I also have a bit more information on the branch there. About ripping branchlines up, we aussies have actually ripped many up. Branchlines such as the Fassifern Valley, South Coast, Brisbane Valley, Canungra, Amiens and that's just to name a few. Andrew, if you are interested in becoming a beta tester for the Beaudesert Branch, please send me a pm. The Beaudesert Branch however is based in the 1960s so it shall be a little different. Thank you.
 
Think those screens are pretty good Taggy. Clicked on one and it lead me to your flickr account. You should post the one with the dog. Think it's cute. If you need a story line for it let me know, I have a pretty good idea for one I can DM to you.
Regards
Glen
 
Taggy, with your images or photos, you don't need the first & last lot of the
tags.

For example, you don't need to use the IMG & /IMG tags in bold, like this (1)
{IMG}{URL="http://www.flickr.com/photos/114252803@N07/12085073044/"}{IMG}http://farm6.staticflickr.com/5505/12085073044_09dbfcca52.jpg{/IMG}{/URL}{/IMG}

Use this:
{URL="http://www.flickr.com/photos/114252803@N07/12085073044/"}{IMG}http://farm6.staticflickr.com/5505/12085073044_09dbfcca52.jpg{/IMG}{/URL}

1. Replace the curly brackets with square brackets.
