Hi Scott,

Join Elvas Tower and dive into this project - "City Point 1864". While Civil War railroading is not my niche - this is by far the most detailed and historically accurate railroad ever...

Hi Folks,

While I see this is in the MSTS forum - just some tips I’ve come across with when working on same using ORTS. In ORTS - I don’t think the SD file is actually used. ORTS only uses a...

Absolutely gorgeous shots there - sir - LOL - like you take any shots that aren't...

I need to add a good greyish Skydome to my list for that cold stark Winter look.

Thanks for...

Hi Scott,

Sounds neat - one of my favorite regions/periods - as someone who's made (3) steam locomotives for the LHR and I'm now doing a complete overhaul on the LHR route while extending it to...

Hi Folks,

Thanks for the feedback - glad it seems to work for you...

I've toned down the brightness a bit as the...

Hi.

Thanks for the comments !
:)

Yeah - the software isn't cheap but with a monthly subscription it seems manageable - only paying for it when you need it.

It's certainly better than using...

Hi Folks,

Even though dissatisfied with the ORTS introduced distortion - playing around with Terragen to see what's possible.

Hi Folks,

I started my subscription with Terragen.

Well after 4 hours of Ray Trace rendering on a fast machine - I have the very first 10,000 Pixel (240MB) Skydome in ORTS that I'm aware of.
...

Hi Folks,

Woohoo - they have a "Fisheye Camera" and I was able to produce a full Skydome inside the Terragen software without additional editing in PSP - so no seams and the sky looks flawless.
...

Hi Gerry,

Sounds good - I didn't realize Terragen 2 is a very old version of the software - Terragen 4 is the current version - which I need to load up and take a look at. It would certainly be...

Hi Rory,

I appreciate the interest but I'm not much help with photography. I'd assume something with a tripod would work best as I would think it would make it easier to get consistent sectors of...

Thanks Neil - I may have to subscribe and give this a wholehearted effort.

Hi Folks,

Just curious - while there's been little work on our ORTS environment for years - has any thought been given or plans been made on where we're going with it ?

Skydomes as we have them...

Hi Borislav,

Happy to help. Yeah - 32bit uncompressed can get pretty big but offer the best quality.

Hi Borislav,

I'm assuming you're running compression on the DDS export ?

I think it's your source image that might have some artifacts.

I ran a test with the NVidia Plugin - two 2048x2048...

Hi.

If the animation wasn’t added by the original modeler - you can’t - you need the model source.

Hi Folks,

My pet peeve - stay away from Adobe's monthly extortion fee on Photoshop - Corel's Paint Shop Pro does everything PS does and can be had for a reasonable price - OR - use one of the FREE...

Hi.

In ORTS there are two views automatically assigned - accessed via [5] and [Shift 5] - they are offset on the X axis by the same amount in both directions - that said - I'm pretty sure you can...

Hi Eric,

Actually - I haven't edited the tiles because I always thought the route was far too large for me to do much with it. I can certainly test your tool by editing some files and see how it...
