Looking for a way to give back...

[boyerm25]

I am looking for a way to give something back to the community.
Route Building: I don't enjoy it; it seems like a chore.
Asset Creating: None of the programs work on a mac
Reskinning: I do a little of it, but I'm really bad and never seem to get anything done.
Session Creating: Altogether I'm not too bad at this, but usually I have to add trackmarks (especially on MSGSapper's routes, I'm really mad that there are no trackmarks) so I usually end up creating a new version of the route.

Is there any other way to give something back to the community that have so kindly made things for people like me to use?

I think by just enjoying other people's content and showing your appreciation in their release thread's or by showing it off in your screenie's is more then enough of a way of giving back, I think the main thing is to just enjoy the game and have fun if all those things in your list seem like chore's or hard work then go no further cause you'll loose the whole point of it. Just have fun with what you have.
Cheers Mick.

Research takes about 30% of content creation time, good picky beta testers are worth their weight in gold. The both wikis could do with more content or even just making them readable but the most important thing is to have some fun.

You can add trackmarks to the session layer.

I do add them in the session-layer, but it always tries to create a new route anyway.

That's normal if it's not your route - allow it to do as it wants to and you will then get a copy under your own KUID.

Perhaps you are over looking some areas where you could be of service. You could write tutorials about almost any facet of the use of the program, you could put together consists and upload them to the DLS, or simply start a blog and put together lists of commonly sought kuids and links to where to find them. Reskinning has served me well, but it's demanding.

 

[shaneturner12]

Indeed. I'm always interested to help others if they want to look into the tutorial side of things (as tutorials is one of my main strengths).

P.S. Ed - have you got a Christmas banner floating around?

Looking good - I look forward to seeing that on your signature in due course.

Not a "Walking Dead" fan eh? Well, soon enough...

 

[shaneturner12]

Sounds good to me.

P.S. You may also want one for 15,000 posts, as you are not far off.

Euphod,
I am breaking all your rules of proper forum etiquette here and as a result, may soon be among the walking dead, but I can find no other method to reach you. I'd like to modify some of your freight cars to be compatible with CMTMSystem3. Please send me an email if you are agreeable.
