morning Derek,Dermmy,

We woke up from rain last night around 1 but to early to post snow picts and than second sleep to almost 6 wow that is what i needed before looking for my Thai snow shovel:p
Well All the mountains surrounding my routes are exact location and height and not much I had to add other than a hut or cross at the summit with the property name and height, I know this is trainz some FL shunters would say who cares about scenery when shunting at the yard:hehe:.
As Ed said it well some time ago My trainz is first about my real world as good as it can get and than the track and roads and habitats.
Snow timing yes I read the first arctic wind brings the white wonder (for me for sure) and first snow over CA. I create myself now a real problem and a favor seeing things to repair i did not before because of the contrast and luck it happened where we took the screenie.

Dermmy yes i know Yarn and yarnish and Dermmy yarnish I use them but here I not replace coz it looks little bit like the joints between bridges and mainland right? Dermmy what we need to is slabay roads with roadbarrier (not floating like here)and option of the cat eye reflectors(this is an oldie I love to use for sunset picts make the road look more romantic in the scene not more realistic i know.....
Maybe someone reading this or if SLABAY also looks on my thread could he make yarnish the SLABAY way would love it and than seasonal pls but for the moment roads and tracks or snow and ice free.

Ok back to today's picts I am really interested in impressions of different Thai snow effects I use here i.o. homogenous dull looking white stuff mimicking snow.
I know it not looks like fresh more like end of season snow but this is a test with my seasonal textures to see if you think same me.

Ok curious about today's results really as snow is my top favorite all my life of things I like to see. So in the future you can expect a lot more to come.

Roy;)
 
:Y::Y::clap: yeeeeeehh,

Thai snow when Ning come back from the market she will be very happy. You make her day.
She never saw real snow other than in the freezer:eek:

Andy you know me I changed the bridge because when in the future N3V by accident maybe make some normal traffic than the carz not bump stupid at the joints and all blame me.
Andy look at the ones at and under the track these have a different color temp or lets call it dirt grime look which I did add to the texture I use under the track thinking well these carz are dirty or blow dirt kind off or from coal trainz or sultran or other open bulk transport it cannot be completely virgin snow right? See in my imagination i make these things up without just going to the internet and darn check winter in Canada hahaha I am even to lazy to move to another page to check.
Thanks!!

Roy n Djoetje

Djoetje never saw snow too only tropical rain forest and mountains here in the back so i have to explain to him how cold it is but he likes to eat ice cubes at happy hour when i drink my well deserved Singha ( Deane miss you for the happy hour) and most he like those left in my beer ice cubes with Singah beer taste. Fancy deer right?
 
Agree with the Nutty Professor and Bob, the snow looks great. To bad you can't put a little snow on the trees, that would be a huge WOW!
 
Morning Stouthm,Bob,
thank you for the support! Yes the snow is a good start of extra work besides Thai snow shovel;)
i talked long time ago to Pofig about winter trees but it is a huge undertaken and makes the trees more heavy mb wise and snow load of course. I will come up with something trust me I did when running winter years ago with DMdrake trees and they where gorgegous but that is history 2006,2009.
This week we should get closer to the count down lets see and not speculate any more in the mean time let it snow.

Roy;)
 
The snow looks really fabulous, great job! :) Only one suggestion, and I don't know if it's even possible: some of the more vertical surfaces, for example the banks of the stream and the edge of the cut for the track in the 4th picture, probably wouldn't have snow on them, it would probably slide off. That's a really trivial complaint though, I love what you're doing here! :cool:
 
steep and or vertical slopes run offs etc needs to be addressed later

Morning Warhorse64,

Fully agree but here is the but I did not make the rock textures seasonal only on vertical slope that way. i need to add only sporadic patches on that rock edges or cracks as in real life but no time yet for that i am fully aware and have to make additional rock textures for steep and vertical slopes. I did not see your comment as a complaint but a advice help and very much appreciated.
The roads tracks need seasonal to, so the houses, power poles, fences, road barriers you name it.

thank you all for the warm support!

Cabuse I'd love to show the plough in action but isn't that a little bit early no snow on the track and roads?:hehe:

Hallo,

as you know i am a big fan of season change functionality. Is it allowed to ask where you have got the trees and the bushes from? These trees are looking great, but does not support season change. Perhaps I could contact the original creator to get an agreement which would allow to create a snow version from these trees as well.

Happy trainzing,
Your’s TUME
 
Hallo Tume,

well this is pofig lib with speedtree technology and dynamic trees but yes snow is a different pair of shoes I discussed with him already a few times. It first is 3D and will make the objects heavier and a lot more work to make. Maybe he will get the energy and thrive to give it a go when i launch this route and see how we miss a pack of fresh snow on the trees.......

Roy;)
 
could not add any more picts today same post

Tume yes it would be nice if pofig reds the thread and maybe thinks about just a touch of snow 2D on the surfaces but he has a huge lib so ......ouch
