Australian screenshots

I think it has to do with the 81 script being 'broken'. This then 'breaks' any script that is inherited (?) by the broken script.

As for the signals. This is a fairly wide spread problem. It's to do with the signal attempting to do things that signals shouldn't be able to do (setting a speed limit IIRC) in Trainz. There were attempts to find a 'mid ground' if I remember right, but the problem was that they would conflict with too many scripts in Trainz, and be too easy to cause crashes. You'll find that many of the European signals have the same problem.

Edit: David, you really need to find some better smoke textures for that 38 :( They look too much like the standard Trainz ones. I would suggest using LieLestoSbrat's smoke set. Look really nice IMO :) Also, if you name the cylinder drain smoke effect attachments (if you have any) 'a.drain0' 'a.drain1' etc, they should be able to be turned on/off in TC3/09 (plus you can set the max speed for them for 04-TC2, so they aren't on all the time).

Yeah, that's why they're not ready yet.
I'm afraid I'm not "steam literate" :(
I was about to attempt a twinkles set for the 38 but I'll have a look at your suggestion first :D
Thanks
David
 
If you want to David, you can use the smoke set from my VR K class locomotive. It has a couple of modified effects in there, all based off LieLestoSbrat's smoke set.

As a side note, if your interested, I would be more than happy to help you out with anything :) All I would ask in return is for some suggestions on my NSWGR steamer (will get back to that once I get this Healesville project outta the way :) ). Or more, someone to 'rivet count' it :P

Re: Nat's signals - I can't get the 2asp diverge signals to work properly (they show double reds when the line is clear. They then show the diverge properly (sometimes) but continue to show diverge when the line is clear. 3asp diverge signals seem to work OKAY.

Anyway, took a test train down from Wattle Creek to Wadalbavale to see how Matt's new hoppers were going (they are bloody outstanding, BTW):


Junction from the mainline to the branch


Cruising downgrade into Karrah Bay


Shunting Karrah Bay


After arriving at Wadalbavale, the 81 Class was sent to the loco, while the 48's shunted the remaining container flats and grain hoppers.


I LOVE 48 Class most of all

Davido: Thanks for the wallpapers, a nice replacement to my current one:

Thanks Trent, glad you liked them, :) Heres a sneak peek at my next project currently in progress (Still in very early stages as you can see!)

Why thanks Zec, I'm happy to get any help I can on steam and equally happy to help you out with your modeling.

I'll bundle you up a 38 to fiddle with if that's ok?
 
Sure thing. I'll look at it on the weekend if it's ok :) Won't be around tomorrow, as I'll be going to the airshow (whooo, get to go via the railway museum for research, then get to spend the afternoon taking photos of stuff :) ).
Now to see if I can finish the textures for this A2 class... :)

Doing some resignalling on the Wadalbavale Line to try and make it work in '09. Some 3ASP divergence signals still show double reds even when the line should be clear/diverged, but other times they work perfectly.

620 Class Railcar arriving at Karrah Bay.

Having passed an empty grain in the yard, it is seen here blasting through the tunnel

Meanwhile, with the railcar slowly wandering along at 45km/h, the freight is following behind stick for stick (frustrating for me...)

At Wadalbavale, having detached the lead two 48's, 48114 leads the empty hoppers to the mill to load

Meanwhile, 48117 and 48121 sit awaiting the return journey.
 
Ok. See that little red dot down the bottom? That tells you there is a non fatal error (generally a script error). Unfortunately, you will need to replace the faulty signals the long way. Delete the whole lot from the layout, save the layout, then re-place them on the layout. As I said, a broken script seems to brake all related scripts. In this case, the broken diverging scripts are breaking all signal scripts, including the base built-in signal script (thus all signals on the layout are working incorrectly).

Hi David,

No it's(load animation) way to complicated for me. I will have to find an unsuspecting victim to help me;)

So you reckon delete ALL signals from the map, save and close surveyor, reopen and replace the signals (with the same signals?), and all should be well?

Thanks Zec :)
 
That may fix it... I'm still fiddling around with it, as my test track is based of the Wadalbavale line... It still has some junction signals by nat, so I need to work out a way to fix the script errors :)

Manildra MGFH?! I did some skins for that a while ago, just waiting for someone to make it :P Let me know when you're done the mesh and I could dig it up for you if you want. I remember I managed to acquire super high detail logos and info boards. :)

If I can't find it I'd be more than happy to make another for you - probably better that way anyway so that it matches the mesh exactly. :D
 
AXE1970: Do you get on FS9 much? Noticed the icon on your desktop ;)

I managed to get my hands on the PMDG 747-400, most brilliant aircraft ever made for the sim. ;)

While your playing around with this line Zec, have I not been paying enough attention when I go to driver to run a session for the line. It is showing the instructions in another language (maybe German), has this always been the case or just now after installing the Patch to 38599?

If its been this way all along I will make an appointment for new glasses :hehe:

Hi Jamez,

I use FSX mostly, although my PC is an old P4 3.2, so it struggles with that. Still able to do bush flying though ;)

I only recently installed Fs9 again, but after using FSX I find it hard to go back. :)

I don't have the PMDG 747 for FS9 or FSX I think I'll wait to my PC upgrade.

Apart from having a baby 8 months ago, I have been flying in FSX, which is 2 of the reasons I have not been at the Trainz forms much recently.

Hopefully in July, I'll pic up a new PC. Hopefully a i7 965. ....but maybe I am dreaming :)

oh and i think most people like the 3803 wallpaper the best?
heres a pic of my desktop xD
as you can see i dont have much stuff on it, since my last pc died, so im starting fresh with 1 terabyte of storage :P

At least you guys can get Desktop backgrounds, Cause we have a Burnt ( AKA illegal ) Copy of windows and they found out so now my desktop is black with a "Your copy of Windows is not valid" message:p
