Winter wonderland

Winter at Avery, Id

Hallo,

here comes a snowy screen from Avery, Id - the western end of Milwaukee Road's Montana Division :)

Special thanks to Dinorius Redundicus who updated his nice
old baggage car to support season change functionality so I
could use it for the seasonal update of the Avery-Drexel route.

Oh - the second screen shows Avery as it looks if all the snow
has been gone next year.

Yes, you are not completely alone with the seasonal assets. Hopefully other creators will catch this disease also.

With any new creations I make now, I consider whether normal-map textures and a snow/summer change is justified. For old assets, I will be gradually working through the list and asking the same question. Unfortunately for me, it is now a reasonably long list and adding snow is not always a simple matter of splashing around some white. Usually it requires a re-work of the UVW mapping, fixing mistakes in the meshes and even re-making the original summer texture images so that everything works. The update of Derelict baggage car 01 for example took me 2 weeks to do. And of course it's somewhat boring to be working on old assets, so I like to always have something new in the pipeline to keep up my interest. The net result is that seasonal updates are in progress but will probably take me a long time.
 
Hallo Rooneth3808,

at first - your screen looks great!!

The seasonal disused baggage car has been created by Dinorius_ Redundicus. Just search DLS for user-kuid 68213.
All the other seasonal stuff at the screen has been created by me, but it has not been released yet. It will be released as a bundle within my reworked Milwaukee Road Avery-Drexel route.

Route: UMR 2010 Winter

The VIA Turbo is filled with holiday travellers, a jolly Christmas party on rails. Santa Claus is aboard, greeting the kids, and the lounge car is selling plenty of mugs of mulled wine and hot toddies for the adults.
Happy Holidays!
