Here is the fourth powerline in my collection. I seen this power line pop up in a lot in pictures from the 1950's in this area. So why not model...
I also used his tutorials to get started making content. I wish he was still making videos. Sadly there is not much out there on this topic. What...
Powerline #3 went pretty fast...how about that tubular type of power line. I first remember seeing these in the early to mid 1970's. [IMG]
Round #2, Big Bertha has arrived. [IMG] This is my biggest tower to date. Poly count on this monster is 27,328. About 10,000 less then the first...

The first powerline model has been cleaned up and it is ready for exporting into TSC. [IMG] While I still need to do some testing on this model, I...
I guess I'm on my own with this. It's ok, I'm used to it.

For the first alley light of this pack, I started out with a bit of an odd-ball type streetlight. [IMG] It's actual name is the GE Form 110so. A...

Quick update-I forgot to post this yesterday. Here is the ole time GE Form #6 streetlight from the 1920's. I have it attached to a pole in this...
Could be your graphics card is about to go.
The last street light was an old one, but this one is even older. [IMG] This one has it's origins all the way back into the 1920's. Some of the...
Here is one for the old timers. I recall seeing these street lights up until the very early 1970's in this area. I'm sure most areas replaced...
I have the first four street lights done in this second pack. Since I'm getting familiar with making these street lights in Blender, I'm testing...
Let's not forget the classic radial wave streetlight! One of my favorites. Tried to give it that incandescent color look. [IMG]
I hope not because I just getting started in it. It's one of the very few train sims that has a decent world editor in it.
This is in the texture / influence tab in Blender 2.79. I unchecked color and turned on normal button for the normal texture in the second slot. I...
So you say you want some realistic streetlighting on your route? Well, I'll give you that chance with this content pack. In this streetlight pack,...

Here is the next set of lights in the Streetlight Pack #1. Once again a single and double lamp version of a highway light with a GE Form109 light...
I first noticed this two days ago, but only found out that it was TSC causing the issue today.
Here is the next set of highway lights for my Streetlight Pack. This is older version of the previous highway light set. These have the VO-20...
Yes, every time I fire up TSC I get a warning from Windows 11 saying a threat was found. I scan and find nothing.
I would kind of like to know that myself. I see some radio towers being made in the future.
Here is metal lights Number 8 and 9, These are a curved arch variety highway light both in a single and double light setup. [IMG] [IMG] Still...
While I can make light versions with warmers lights with no problem, I opted out of adding a point light with these poles. Mainly because the...
That didn't take long. Here is a double light version of the last highway light. It's now a matching set. [IMG] Another set is next.
Continuing to work on the metal streetlight pack, I'm now focused on highway and parking lot type streetlight. This next light is the typical...
Did some testing on this shader. I found out that it does work when you have the normal tab checked in the influence panel in Blender. The big...
I'm currently working on making a standard stainless steel highway light. I thought I'd test your shader recommendation. The first problem I'm...
So I made the 5th installment of the streetlight pack. This light is a GE Form 101 teardrop type light seen in the 30's and 40's. I may come back...
So I did a little more looking into paint shop pro. Apparently it does have a split RGB and combine RGB commands. This allows you to edit the...
Looking into this specular hardness issue, I found that Briage does allow for the specular hardness to come through, but it doesn't seem to work....
I'll check them out. Thanks!
I'm using the shader you suggested a while ago. TrainBasicObjectDiffuse.fx

I use paint shop pro, which doesn't seem to do that at all. I also used Gimp that does deal with channels, but it's not an easy task. Any...
One of the biggest problems I have with making these RGBA type maps is separating / packing the different channels. Is there an easy way to do this?
Simple question- What is the best way to simulate chrome parts? Like a bumper of a car? What shaders could I use to create that mirror effect?
It has been a slow go for modeling these city streetlight as I've spent the last couple of day digging myself out of the latest snowstorm! However...
It's important for folks to keep giving their opinions on this sim. It shows DTG that there is still many people out there that enjoy this sim....
After making the power pole pack, I'm now moved over to making streetlights. Much like automobiles, streetlight are used to show and era. There...
