Cajon Pass WIP

~snip~ Man those mountains are looking so green and dark...wonder how I'm gonna do them

Hi wridenour.

The mountains in that link look very similar to the terrain I’ve modelled in my Italian routes.

If you think this type of terrain may be of use, send me a PM and I’ll give you the details of how I did the modelling, texturing and misty effect. None of the parts are particularly difficult, but the right combination of all three seem to work quite well.

Cheers
Casper

C.P. Walker....odd name lol

FYI the CP Walker was named in honor of Chard Walker, a famed historian of the Pass who worked both the Summit and Cajon depots/order offices and published a great book on the subject.

You are correct about "Control Point" but the BNSF dedicated this C.P. in memory of Chard Walker

Are You Going To Release Both A Speedtree Version Of The Route And A Non Speedtree Version On DLS Too?

 

[wridenour]

No, just a non speedtree version. Well, it's got a few speed trees in it, primarily palm trees...if you don't like them, just use the replace assets tool.

How Is The Route Coming?

 

[wridenour]

Time for a little update...

 

[hightrain]

I'm glad that this project is still alive.

 

[boyerm25]

I second that.

 

[MarioYoshi4723]

So... can someone link me to the route? Is it on the DLS or is it still being worked on? If its Cajon Pass Xtreme, then where are San Bernardino and Barstow, that "route" is just the start of the mountain-ish part of the line. If someone could link me to the finished product, or at least give me some info on the state of it, that would be great.

Friend, this thread is 4 years old. That should tell you everything you need to know about it

 

[MarioYoshi4723]

Is there a new thread for it?

 

[MarioYoshi4723]

Could someone please link me to the full Barstow to San Bernardino route? I've been searching for it for months upon months and finding nothing.:'(

 

[Southern1581]

No, there is no new thread that I know of. Let this one die. And if you can't find what you want, chances are it's not there, perhaps put the work gloves on and build your own.
