Australian screenshots

[S301]

Hi David
The 2nd and 4th locos use 'basic' textures without any shading (shadows, or normals maps), or actual weathering (the 2nd loco uses a 'dusty' looking texture). The 1st and 3rd locos (both the same loco model, my VR T class) use baked shadows and normals maps, with weathering.

The actual colour of the models is different as well. The 2nd is a 'faded' VR blue, whilst the 4th loco has the old Auran 'S class' colours which were too bright for the VR blue and gold livery.

To celebrate 157 years since the first steam hauled train in Australia, operated from Melbourne to Sandridge by the Melbourne and Hobsons Bay Railway Company, Z526 and an F class are seen departing Lilydale with a 'shuttle' to Coldstream and back.

Seen in the goods yard is Y104 with a replica Suburban goods, which will run up and down the yard throughout the day.

Cool shots Ghosty, does QR have ballast under their tracks??

Jamie

 

[Ghostryder]

Jamie
Thanks they do use ballast. But it depends on location as to how wide they went with it from the track bed. I have seen shots of the rail corridor where there is two or more tracks that have been ballasted and then dirt between the tracks but that does vary location to location.

G'day all,

...The benifits of basing your route near the border of two states...

...a D50 class rolls into Cobalt with a mixed freight to wait for a cross with a 32 hauled passenger...

...should keep you NSWers happy :hehe:

Cheers

[rbar_164]

Hey Guys,

Steamrail ran a tour towards Echuca, passing through Cobalt on the way, using R761...

Thanks Bill.

My computer is back in action tomorrow, and I have plenty of ideas I want to implement, so hopefully have some shots up the end of the weekend.

Great shots all,

Matt.

Rbar_164, loving the whole 'feel' you got going with your fictional Cobalt location, it just 'feels' right to me, keep up the great work!

 

[rbar_164]

Cheers Mulie I must say I quite like the feel of it too though I reckon the scenery can get a bit inconsistant...

Cheers

G'day everyone,

I'm just about to pop off to bed but thought I'd just pass this on. You've all seen the screenshots, so you know what you're looking at. It isn't super prototypical (it uses British signals as the VR sigs availible aren't TS2012 compliant)
Anyway, enjoy. The .cdp contains a Readme with a list of 3rd party content and where to get them. Any troubles, just let me know.

VR Faxton 1950s

Cheers
Tim
