Lionel lines updated (LARGE PICS)

[deadpoolmx55]

HI ALL,
OK heres a route made for trz2004, i downloaded from the DLS and i liked the track layout, so i basically striped it down next to nothing but the track and redid the whole thing and ADDED A LOT, now that my video card and new pc allow me to have more frames i decided to add A LOT of scenery, here is a lot of screen shots and if i can get a hold of the original maker (mcguirel) to ask for permission to release it if enough are interested please i welcome opinions
thank you

[CPman117]

Those bends are mighty tight, you might need to move that switch

I suspect the switch in the second shot works backwards.

 

[deadpoolmx55]

Permission Granted Only to the origonator of this post as impressed with it.
I ask that a TS2010 Version is supplied as that is the latest version I have.

Would be awesome to see this in Native Mode and Multiplayer Enabled.

thank you mcquirel! im making it in 2009 so i guess it will work in 2010 just fine.

 

[mcguirel]

Your welcome. Maybe you could use my UltraTrack V2K?

 

[deadpoolmx55]

yeah i can do that i was just messing with different tracks today including your ultra track i like it alot and its not hard on frame rates

 

[mcguirel]

Smoothing tool will be your best friend.

 

[deadpoolmx55]

tell me more about this smoothing tool?

 

[mcguirel]

This tool after the track is replaced will lower the ground exposing the wide ballast area resulting in less need of the matching ground texture which IMHO does not look good on curves as square blocks . This is the reason for the design of UltraTrack which was allot of work. Just wish I would of known how to LOD the track, and also wish I would of made it better now, however that was my first 3DMax Project and proud of what I accomplished with it even though not used cause of JR's Track.

 

[deadpoolmx55]

ah yes i am familiar with the smoothing tool, i thought it might have been a third party tool you were talking about

Looks Great !

were did you find that PRR steam locomotive?

I just used to love that WRRW track, but found it kinked too badly in switchs and curves, making straight segments, instead of curves.

There is a Lionel 3 Rail track on the DLS ! :hehe:
