Great screenshots David, Tim, Scott, Tom and Graeme, Keep it up everyone.
Lately, I've been playing around with 3DS Max as well as Sketchup, to see whether I can actually create something. I've been watching tutorial after tutorial with both programs and after several weeks of frustration of scrapping one item after another, I've finally been able to create my first model.
I used the easiest program Sketchup and built a bridge. It's nothing spectacular and not 100% accurate, but it's somewhat similar to the Anzac Bridge at Pyrmont. My timing was wrong and I could have included it on my latest Sydney route.
Now to see if I can do the same with 3DS Max.
Cheers,
Roy

Well done Roy, remember that most other 3D programs do not like big assets to render so when using other programs break the asset down if possible as the Sydney Harbour Bridge is about 7 different assets ,,, i would love to learn how to use blender over 3DS Max myself,,,
I wished that there was a site that shows how via video to make assets and set setting in Blender for not just dummies but for complete dummies,,, i would make everything in blender if that was the case.

Thanks Steve,
As you said, good advice! The earlier screenshot showed additional detailing using stuff available on the DLS. So what I actually created using Sketchup is just one asset, as shown below with the detailed one in the background.
With Sketchup, I used RubyTMix to bring it into TANE content manager. If it is too big, it gives a warning so it can be deleted and re-worked.
I'm going to do it again, next time being more accurate and I'll attempt to include the pedestrian walkway and railings. When you think, on a route it is only decorative and trains don't run across it.

Thanks Graeme, Talented,.. I'm definitely not! I just wish I was half as talented again, plus a little bit more.
You wouldn't believe just how difficult it is to remember every fiddly thing about these programs,.. so many dead ends just leads to frustration. When you think those 3D animators must have brains like scientists. They are clever. How they do it I just don't know.
I thought I'd try it to create a few models such as a split bridge (bridge kit). One that is split right down the centre, which could be used to fit different road or highway widths.
By the way guys, for anyone building a 'Waterfall to Bondi Junction' route, I spotted a high speed cab ride video, which gives a good idea of the landscape, just pause to grab the image.

Just finished off the basic scenery on Goulburn Murray Lines v3.1, now I just have to do all of the ATLS crossings. Not just in the new part, but over the entire route as SP2HF1 broke a lot of crossings by turning the older ones 45 degrees. I suppose it was time to get rid of those crossings anyway.
