Route: Fife Circle Line Train: Flying Scotsman Based on 'Scotland For Your Holidays' by Terence Cuneo
Damn, yes it is, the link from last week's TSW comp leads here. Thanks for letting me know. It took me ages so I'll just leave it up. Anyone is very welcome to use the idea if they would like to
Based on this work by Rod Aszman Route: Tehachapi Pass: Mojave - Bakersfield Locomotive: EMD F7A, EMD F7B
Some great Art Recreations well done all. This weeks winner with this lovely shot of UoSA on Fife is IronBladder , congratulations! Have a great week everyone. Next Weeks Contest : https://forums.dovetailgames.com/threads/tsc-screenshot-contest-may-2024-week-20.81428/
Beautiful shot - but I hope you don't mind me pointing out that using SL_Clear.bin ("3D 1.Clear") applies no distant fog and exposes the scenery rendering limits leading to bland distant scenery. Anyway, cheers for winning this round mate.
Just rename the route's TimeOfDay folder to revert to default 2D sky for screenshots - no cache clearing needed. 3D tends to look good at dusk, night and dawn, but not at daylight imho. It lacks a lower/upper sky transition and distant fog.
