It already does, but not very well. Any VE error reported by validation is a hot link to the Trainz WiKi where, if you are lucky, you may find a solution that matches your problem. Some of those...

pbrcamerafacing? Nothing in the WiKi that I can see.

I recall seeing a discussion on this issue recently but cannot recall if it was somewhere in these forums or on Discord. A search didn't find anything. It seems to me that the validation isn't...

As I read the WiKi page for VE268, it says that unused meshes are warnings in 5.0 and below but errors in 5.1 and above. Fair enough if FBX files for those meshes exist since it wastes commit time. ...

Apologies if this has been reported elsewhere. It may also be a suitable thread for the content creation forum.

I was trying to use one of my loco assets to test some scripting and thought I'd...

Yes, much better and I'm sure Ben would approve. Must have been hard work getting the textures lined up without the original UV maps.

That was an amazing video. I really enjoyed it. :)

I wish our leaders said to Putin and Russia that Ukraine is a sovereign country - you cannot do this. In my view Putin is simply another Adolf...

I'm getting the same warnings and it does look as if the lm.txt files are not being checked.

These comments come up quite regularly. I've been mostly dormant for the last few months since, in a moment of insanity, I packed my bags and moved a 1000 kilometres north. I've totally lost touch...

As I understand it N3V were encouraging users to upload assets, i.e. dependencies hosted elsewhere, up to the DLS. It's obvious, at least to the long suffering members of the CRG, that this was an...

Too many to review though I found quite a few I liked but probably not by others. My suggestions:

I checked the F7A and the Pere Marquette in the same versions and they looked OK. The Pere Marquette had lots of warnings for both the loco asset and dependencies. I tested it in game (TS19) and it...

This can be a major problem if you are importing some of your older creations from one version of Trainz to another. Many creators use a spreadsheet to manage this with blocks of (kuid) numbers for...

Great work Deane. It's a pity that we can't have wet roads/concrete/etc as depicted in these Blender scenes. https://blenderartists.org/t/steam-locomotive-wet-platform/1355157

Seasonal assets,...

BTW, the tutorial doesn't cover using the older Trainz materials. Maybe I should add a different tutorial for that because I know that some are not comfortable with PBR materials. Writing a...

Towards the top of the article there is a link to the project files that includes a config.txt. That should help.

The original Blender addon created XML files that were used by N3V's TrainzMeshImporter to create IM files. The addon broke with Blender 2.8 and hasn't been repaired. If you want to stay with IM...

I fall into that category since my membership is renewed in late September when I'll will be curious to see what happens. Most likely I will have forgotten about it. :)

When TANE was finally...

I've liked all the Blender versions since 2.49b but the later versions make it much easier to manage a multi LODed model such as a loco. The only thing I can't master is getting window colours that...

My understanding is -> You get a draw call for each 65k chunk of triangles assuming one material. Each material is a draw call. So if you had a mesh with 65k tris and ten materials that would be 10...

Just find the consist in CM (category = consist), right click and save to CDP.

Try splitting up the tunnel mesh into smaller parts. Concave rounded meshes sometimes get their face normals flipped.

You should be able to download it now using the Trainz Plus Beta stream. Last I heard Tony was suggesting this might also be a release candidate.

There are instructions for accessing your TS19...

Rich Edit is more of a Windows thing. Google it for information. Maybe the OP has the external script editor pointing to an editor that, by default, uses Rich Edit instead of plain text.

Smart is not one of my attributes. :)
