Hey, all.
I'd like to ask a few things about content and custom stuff. I've restarted my Boston subway layout, and I downloaded quite a few new content that popped up since I last worked on it a year ago. I need to know about a few things. I'm using TRS 2009, so I should be able to upload any TRS 2004, TRS 2006, and TC 1 - 3 content into TRS 2009.
1. Is there any way to raise the tunnel ceiling in the tunnel called "Subway Tunnel 2" by ProTrainz? The kuid is... KUID: 58843:38102 I'm asking since my Green Line subway cars pantographs go through the roof of ProTrainz's subway tunnel. I *love* the look of the ProTrainz tunnels, but wish it was higher to accomodate catenary and pantographs.
2. I was wondering if there's any tutorials or how-to's to use AJS stations? I need to make some subway stations at ground level, not 1.3 meters off the ground because the trolley subways board and disembark at ground level. The problem is that some of the Green Line subway stations are REALLY twisty. Some harpin curves in the middle of the station, and weird long curves and loops inside stations. So I can't exactly use stock-and-barrel subway station buildings or kits, because they're all straight track, and I can't use splines because they don't have the station or industry property for load / offload passengers. Any ideas or tips?
3. How do I create custom stations and roads? I want to use MGreen's roads, but the DLS doesn't have the road intersections that I need. Also, I want to make decent ground level stations. I rather like the tram stations (forget the name, one of them is tramstop-mediterrean or something like that), but all the language and signs and stuff on these stations are in German or Austrian. Is there any way to fix this?
4. Station customization. I want to add in a Boston subway spider map onto station panels. Also, I want to have signs with two lines of text, one line with station name, and the other line with INBOUND or OUTBOUND. Is there any way to make this and incorporate it into a custom station? Any tutorials on how to make ground level stations, with scripting and everything? I think these are my most pressing issues, and once they are resolved, I should be able to do major work on my Boston subway layout.
