    Fantastic.

    About to have one last attempt now. Certainly the part about creating a plug in wasn't something I had tried or was even aware of as part of the workflow. I was just plonking a folder and sub folders for the route in the Content directory and going from there.

    Might be worth adding to the kml section... Entries need to be in strict alphanumeric format, no symbols or spaces for them to show up.
    We also await information on how to get them to show on top of the terrain rather than at sea level.

    And dtg_jan any chance this could be stickied please.

    This is great thank you. I have stumbled across something though, as I've mentioned in a post on the forum someplace else I suffer with learning difficulties and I've hit a bit of a problem I have my .hgt files imported for Skegness and landscape looks good but I'm not sure which file selection I should download for my Lidar data (see picture). Also are the KML markers to show position of track ect because I use my google api satellite view for that

    I would say Lidar Tiles DTM, but maybe try downloading one of each and see which one works, the format you want is either .asc .tif or .xyz

    Anyone have anything about making a train/EMU driveable on track to add to the documentation?

    Please bear in mind, that I have no idea of the editor, i just collect the information. But feel free to add your questions to the sheet as comment, maybe someone can answer it.

    Also thanks for tagging me in other posts! This helps greatly to include stuff. It's now updated with some level crossing signalling and basic track signals stuff.

    Does anybody know how to generally modify simple content files like audio, and textures?

    unfortunately the reskin tutorial(s) don't work for me, I have tried everything possible I can not make it display my changes I made. did I maybe miss something? maybe the issue is that I am doing it for a multiple unit and there is no tutorial for that yet I suppose...

    Here is a checklist, you can try:
    • Is the correct RailVehicleDefinition set in your TrainFormation?
    • Is the correct RailVehicleView set in the RailVehicleDefinition?
    • Have you tried turning simulation on and off in the RailVehicleView?

    If you turn simulation on and off in the rvv, you'll see the texture changes, so you can check, if you have done it correctly.

    I don't think your problem has enough visibility in this thread as not a lot of people will get notifications for it. I suggest you to open a new thread. :)

    Looks like there's a bit of a problem with the documentation. Looks like there's a screenshot repeated a lot of times? Can you have a look?

    Thanks for flagging. Deleted it. Some people just have too much time trolling around. But it's fine again :)

    It's better to open a new thread for this question. You won't have a lot of visibility here.
