And before anyone gets crazy, the too-big font on the diverging speed sign, and the "20" being too close to the "MILES" on the tunnel sign HAVE been fixed already. So, no nitpicking, k?. Plus, I know that OPTO signs are not mounted to the floor in subway stations, but I included it to show the different versions. Below is a list of what signs will be in the content package. Each will have THREE different variations: Outside Right-Hand, Outside Left-Hand, and Tunnel (RH only). The ones with an asterisk next to them and bolded are NOT renameable. Also, the ST/GT combo sign will show both speeds as the same. I had to do this because with the script, if I make each one changeable, it'll have to be placed in the session layer, otherwise it will reset itself each time you re-open your route. It's a pain in the ass with the BART MP's right now that I'm trying to resolve.

So, Signs List:

Car Stop Sign (blank)
Car Reverse Sign (CAR printed on bottom. For reverse moves)
**4/6 Car Stop Sign
**8/10 Car Stop Sign
Diverging Speed Sign (D on top)
GT Speed Sign (GT on top)
GT/ST Speed Signs (GT/ST on top of their respective signs)
**OPTO Stop Sign
Resume Speed Sign (R on top)
Speed Limit Sign (MILES on bottom)
ST Speed Sign (ST on top)
**Time Control "T" Sign

Any questions, feel free to ask.

whats going on with the station splines how are they coming
Click to expand...

The measurements were off, so they had to be re-configured. BStyles (who is helping me) and I thought we were in the clear--we were going to do a three-in-one station spline, where the end/start pieces and the station itself were all in one spline, and we were using trackoffsets and referencing the NYCTA track by its kuid number in the config, so it could appear and make things easy for you guys, the builders. Well, we ran into a few problems, firstly, up to TS10, the max number of trackoffsets that can be used is five...so, Hoyt-Schermerhorn, DeKalb Avenue and 135th St weren't going to work, as all of those were 6T stations. Secondly, the plan with the "three-in-ones" backfired as we tried to get more 4T models in. So, long story short, I've made the decision to rebuild all of the stations--with slightly revamped textures. Also, they will be just like Magiclands, in that there will be one start/end piece (rotated 180 degrees to suit both ends) and one station spline per layout. There will be invisible track via attachment points, and you will attach the end pieces to the spline and boom, you have your station. There will be a few stations that have both start & end pieces b/c flipping one piece around will not work (1T stations, and some one-wall variants).

I will keep everyone updated on the stations' status--I have decided to dedicate the rest of the week to BART, so it could be a few days

Hello A

You doing well with the tunnel station and looking fine and awesome. Keep on Keep on Rolling and keep up the extreme awesome work.
 
Hello everyone, Just wanted to say the Tunnel Tracks are done. I will show you the 9 picture of all the tunnels that were made So let go through the line of tunnels then.

The first one is the Tunnel Entrance from the out to in side that is why you see more of lighter gravel like wall on there.
</noscript>

This is the Tunnel 4 Track, you will see as well the Middle Tunnel 4 Track down with the one with no tracks in the middle.
<script src='http://imageshack.us/shareable/?i=tun2.jpg&s=685' type='text/javascript'></script><noscript>

This the Tunnel 5 Track, this tunnel is all most the same as the number 2-3-4-5 line in Brooklyn.


You see here is the Tunnel down 8 and 6 Track middle. This you will see near DeKalb Ave before going in to Manhattan and heading back toward the station DeKalb Ave.


The Tunnel Tube Tracks that goes under big rivers.


The Single Tunnel Track is all there.


Here are the Splines added parts you can put in the tunnel. Wall, Walk ways and such like that you see there and the one that you can't see is the roof for the tunnel.


All the tunnel pieces all together and ready.




All right, Now I'm just waiting for Bstyle and Acelejalde on everything else and see where thing goes from there.

After importing my NYCTA subway content from TS2010 into TS12 and fixing any problems with some of my content, I created a 6-track tunnel with 6 tracks in it that replaced a 6-track tunnel with 4 tracks in it and a separate 2-track "tunnel". I ran a subway train through all tracks of the 6-track tunnel and it worked!
