Okay... First of all... Had to skip TRS2006... it didn't want to work... Typical... Also had to skip TS2010 ... same reason... The route is taking a long time to fix... about average with all the issues it has...
HOWEVER... TS12 not only took the train in... it broke it down into a whole mess of CDPs... which I decided to toss to the Download station... Should show up in a few days or whatever... ;-)
So this means all that's left is TANE... progress is good on the train there... the test track was a good idea... might toss it onto the Download Station just so folks have something to run it on ;-)
OH, same thing with the Half Pint edition, go fig, eh ? But it's one big file not a bunch of little files, 'cause reasons (tm) Possibly due to a lot less legacy issues there 'cause that was made from scratch more or less, I did use the Supertrain Textures for it, yea, but not much of anything else...
Thinking of packing the Gmax files to my Google Drive, so people can mess with them, namely so folks can reskin the train all you want... heh heh heh heh Yes the original textures will be part of the zip file, kinda have to be to do anything w/ it to start with, and maybe folks can figure out how to get it to light up the windows at night w/ out faking it like it does currantly w/ the reflections cranked up to max...
ANYWAY... From this point forward... getting the train to work past TS12 should be a lot easier... as it already has ;-) Just have been tweeking it to look better... Like removing the ugly jagged drawn by hand practically names on the sides... 'cause I recalled how the whole Alpha thing works in game... and I was like should we add these to the cars ? The answer was yes of course, what's a few more polys added, it's not like the windows I made in one of the old versions, just a lot of black boxes on the sides... THAT was a mistake... more so for people w/ not so great computers... I was one of them...
ALSO... If I figure out how to get a sound file to play from the train... 'cause I got the perfect "SOUND" for it, some of you have heard it already I'm sure, currently it's a .wav file BUT I can convert it into a MP3 easily, if that's doable in TRAINZ even as all I've seen in config files is .wav so not sure if turning it into an MP3 is even a good idea...
ANYHOW... to wrap this message up... ~ I've been workin' onna rail-road, all the live long day... ~ ( etc etc etc ) DISCO LIVES !
Le Chief Du Super ;-)
P.S. When I said I Had to Skip TRS2006, I meant mostly the route, not the train... the train did fine... the test track ( figure 8 ) is good, the huge as heck route, not so much...
