How do you switch Animated Driver with Non Animated Driver in Edit Session

Using TRS19 SP2 110491. While in Driver, at the bottom left near the Driver list, there is a gear icon, once clicked it pops up a check mark list. On the list is shows Driver Portraits, Animated Portraits. Once unchecked the Driver Icon will show the 2D portrait of the driver. I find the built in animated portraits kind of spooky and never match the 2D portraits.

I am making sessions and want the 'Driver' to load with this setting. How do you switch Animated Portraits with Non Animated Portraits in Edit Session?
 
I doubt you can. Anyway, surely it's up to the player to choose to switch off animation of the driver portrait (as I and many have done). I mean, why force your beliefs on others, even though I dislike it myself? Just a thought.
 
Hi Christopher, understand the question, many dislike the 3d faces
A few times i have asked to atleast make them smaller 65x65 instead of 100x100
like you, I searched the scripts, but no go there.
I could explain how to remove them all together, but not on this forum :)


The current "Drivers" interface, is just too slow/unhandy on big routes.
Try loading a really big route with 40+ trains, it loads so slow its annoying
The reasons is, for each loc, Trainz generates a side view pic (beautiful but slow)
Add to this the loading of all these animated heads. In its self maybe not a problem,
but when you start a session, gazillion other things need to be loaded at the same time.


Instead of further complaining, made a much simpler Driver-Train-List
in my Set-Driver-Condition-Rule, it loads in the blink of an eye(faster even)
shows who drives and who is stopped and with exception of the multiplay things
basicly the same functionality. I can fully use trainz without opening the driverlist.
greetings GM
