The latest update on the pole pack. The first 10 are done! [IMG]
Up to 7 power poles for my pack...more to come. [IMG]
Next up for release is my big Power Pole Pack. While only 4 are shown here, the pack should contain about 20 different poles. These poles will...
My web site is up and this file ready for testing. https://blackdiamond1964.weebly.com I'm keeping the site very basic, easy for you to download...
[IMG] After working the lower the poly count of these models, I completed my first pole pack, this is a telegraph pole pack. 10, 20, 30 and 40...
Thanks for the info. It comes down to wanting something a little more detailed then what is out there. Poly count vs. realism. At this time I'm...
Phone the neighbors and wake the kids! I got the telegraph pole to work! [IMG] I start from a clean slate with new models and new blueprints. I...
More testing was done. I found that my wire when made as a regular loft works. So I ruled out the position of the wire in Blender. It's obvious to...
I use TexDiff for most items. I'll bake in shadows for those items I want to add detail to. Mainly track side buildings.
After studying the pictures I posted above, I found that I had the wrong shader in Blender for the wire. I fixed that to the right shader but it...
My first attempt at creating telegraph poles was a failure. While I followed the "How to Make a Gantry" pdf, everything exported correctly with no...
I know, I did look at the upgrade but I found that for basic model building it's best to stick with what I know best. There seems to be more steps...
[IMG] I'm heading back into TSC content creation, and the very first thing I need to tackle is telegraph, power poles along with real...
It could be the shader you are using to import it into the sim.
Well I'm back too give Train Sim Classic another shot. I have two projects that have been shelved since 2022, I've resurrected them, and plan to...
Thanks for the info.
I didn't know of any blueprinteditor64. I'm aware of the program running the sim in 64 mode. Where is this blueprinter64 located? I'm still using...
Info removed due to lack of any interests in the TSC community.
Even thought the Horseshoe curve is old, I use it for the base textures and track. I figure it's in the right area, era and it's lower poly...
Whoops! When I re-started my web site I forgot about these little gems. They have since been lost, but I still have the Blender models. I plan on...
Thanks, there are a few sites on your list I never heard of.
I'm getting back into the Train Sim Classic scene and I'm looking for any US transitional era content. I'm aware of the RWA and Golden Age of...
I did take a look at this route. While the trees are colorful, many of them look to be 2D trees. I will keep this route in mind when I finally go...
I have a feeling I will be mixing and matching trees from many different sources. I wonder how hard it would be to make some trees? I made plenty...
Looks like the Saluda Grade Route has some yellow autumn trees but not much else. I'll have to see if there is a YouTube video showing the route.
I'll check that out. Some color is better then no color.
Very rarely, I see screenshots of nice fall colored trees. These are usually user created routes so the trees are from parts unknown. I'd love to...
I'm just getting back in TSC. One of my sour spots I had with TSC is the lack of good looking colorful autumn trees. What route has the best...
The Iron Horse came and the canal system were no longer completive. The trucks & buses came and the railroads was no longer completive. The...
That's just fine. Actually the with all the canals that once was in the area it was ultimately found that the Susquehanna River in this area was...
It's been a while since I posted. This building model was finished, only to find the building far out of scale when exported into TSC. The 4 floor...
Since my last post I've decided to take another approach on my project. I've decided to concentrate on smaller areas to complete adding the...
Here's the next model...This is the Prospect Viaduct. What is a viaduct you might ask? A viaduct is a land only bridge that crosses no water. This...
So far nothing...but I'm just getting started. I'm keeping a watch on the frame rates. It's important to the project to keep the railroad's...
The next model is the first road bridge in a long set. This is the North Street Bridge. Built in the late 1800's, it was still standing in the...
Moving along, here is the first of many bridge models on the L&WV Route. This model was slightly delayed due to me learning how to make a loft in...
The Horseshoe Curve doesn't have a bridge track. It's dated I know, but it fits for what I need. I'm using the sleeper less (rail only) tracks on...
I'm sure I can find them.
I have my first rail bridge model transferred from Trainz to TSC. This is the Mill Creek Bridge located just outside the city limits of...
Here is the latest model. I can recall this model took a while to do. It the Luzerne Country Courthouse. It was built in 1908. The L&WV had it's...
One more model for today...This is the Bravman Furniture Building. This building sits right beside the Thomas C. Thomas Building I posted about...
Building (model) #5 This is the Thomas C. Thomas produce distributor. This building was built around 1948 and was one of the major shippers on the...
Building #4 has been imported onto the route[ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] . This is the Swift & Company Building. This was the 3rd meat...
These are the same units in Trainz.[ATTACH]
As a reminder I'm still looking for someone with loco knowledge to set up the rolling stock for this project. The models are already complete,...
Here the second model for the day and the 4th for the route. This is the Lackawanna & Wyoming Valley Wilkes-Barre Freight Depot Building. Built in...
Model #3 is done. This is another meat packing plant that's located in the L&WV Wilkes-Barre Railyard. Wilson & Company was a big meat packer...
I was able to get another model imported into TSC. Model #2 is the Lehigh Beef Company Building. Sometime in the 1930's, the Laurel Line leased...
A final look at the Wilkes-Barre Passenger Station with it's nighttime and snowy weather glory.[ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Yes, these models were made in Blender 2.79 and exported through the Briage program.
