Yes I'm quite pleased with them , it's great to be able to specify varying sizes to the minky/jvc veg and since Malcolm told me it's possible to drop the bases of the vegetation under the ground, it has saved me many hours work ,I hate floating shrubs grass etc, I wish more creators would remember to add this feature to their creations , makes things so much easier. Thanks to all who have given feedback, makes it easier to continue as some days the task appears insurmountable ..... it's a big route,Nice to see another update! Your new plant selections are looking very good!
Not seen an update on this subject for a while. Was wondering how it was coming along? I hope you are doing ok.
As I’ve said before, what we all have seen looks great.
Looking at some of the recent post that you have done on the download station, are you also working on D&RGW’s Antonito to Chama?
I’m very sorry to hear about the corruption. I can understand why it may take a while to psych yourself up to go back to it after losing a lot of work. The only thing I can say is that you have a lot us rooting for you on this route and looking forward to it. What we have seen of it has been impressive.
As for breaking it up. Since it is possible to merge routes in Trainz, though I don’t know how much trouble this would be since I’ve not done it. It might be helpful, since you would be dealing with smaller areas and they would be easier and faster to backup as well. I would hope the completed route could be merged and it would be one where you could going from Mack to Watson and beyond, but that is me.
On whether to drop TANE and go to 2019, imho the question at the moment would be which would be easier for you. Most TANE routes will run in 2019, you get some improvement in graphics by going to 2019, but at a cost. Again, speaking for myself, I’m going to get this route whether it is for TANE or 2019.
On Antonito to Chama, I saw a few recent things you had put on the Download Station, for the Cumbres Toltec and it got me to wondering. I’ve been working on learning a CAD program by working on the snow shed at Cumbres. Of course, the biggest problem is Antonito and how do you do three rail track for trainz.
Back to the topic, I hope you able to psych yourself back to the Uintah soon and we all really appreciate the work you have done. From what we all have seen this is truly a very great route. I’ve sent links to your screenshots to some modeler friends to show what can be done in Trainz.
That's interesting Blue, I had seen those various routes, but had not realized they were pieces parts and wasn't sure what to make of them. Nice to know. I am like ursa2, I have never tried to merge routes, but I guess there is always the day to learn something new. It would be interesting to try to break up the Uintah, as from what I have seen one would always be missing something really cool unless he had all the pieces!
progress report.
There has been no progress.
After the setback with corruption of 100 boards on one section, me giving up in utter frustration and then the racing to complete the Timber Ridge standard gauge version, I was thoroughly burnt out a few months ago.
I'm still doing another non related rail project , but it is almost completed and I do have some stirrings to get back and put at least some of the route online.
I will attempt to begin to delete boards, which is going to take weeks, and get a version that will work in TANE up as soon as I can. we are removing our covid restrictions here soon, so the likelihood of me getting it and possibly never competing the route is spurring me to act , I must admit I'm not looking forward to the hassle of getting rid of all the non dls items, and reading the forum confirms all my annoyances over the software, but I don't want to waste three years of work , so I'll be back soon all being well.
I'm using tane , not 2019 , but I understand what you mean,however I've been through this before in detail months ago but I'll run over it again, I have an older backup that is not corrupted, I usually save a cdp of the route several times a day, but Backups haven't been of any use as I only spotted the issue a week after it occurred , on a section I hadn't been working on, the map showed no issues at all, it was only when I zoomed down to ground level that the damage was evident ,an entire section of 100 boards that was completed has dropped hundreds of meters, and all details have vanished,even though colours are still there in the map view , meanwhile I'd done a week or so of highly detailed creek and cliff work on my daily saved cups , work that I don't want to do again, i have an Oder, glitch free version that's ok, but I would have to redo all that work again on it .My trainz backs up something every two weeks for the last three months.
Have you looked in the TS19 backup folder? Step one would be to copy this folder to another location.
Thanks John
My audio app tells me when there's not enough room to save a file, trainz just goes ahead and saves regardless whether or not there is disc space to do so safely.
Nah, they would show upas being available to download, that's another reason why I started putting up all theses items there in case this sort of thing happened I may have a backup on another hard drive which has this tree on it, I transferred the entire route onto that tane install to see how it worked in windows it's an external, my trouble is I have so many drives and computers used for various projects I get confused as to what's where and on what ������ of course by now I could probably have replaced the trees in the same time that I've spent looking for this pesky missing item. ��Dangavel, just curious, as I know you uploaded a LOT of Uintah assets to DLS, especially rock formations and cliff splines, etc. I have downloaded most if not all, and I see greaswood, sage, shrubs, generic small trees, etc. Also seeing pinyon, spruce, juniper (all JVC:BLUEPRINT as well as many of each that are not), generic low pine, fir-tree snow, etc., to the tune of some 215 assets of type "Scenery". Is any of what you lost by any chance on the DLS?
