And this is in a new version of the 1.3 WIP that I just compiled using Ralf's V7 as a base.

Hi Tony.

Looking good mate. thumbsup

I suppose the next step is to create a split rail map?

That is logical, but I am ready for a break.
Check my post at the Gen as this 1.3 exe is using an interesting combination of the info from "TMod.dat" read first, followed by the info from any "TModXYZ.dat" files that may be present.
It means we can work with just the "TModXYZ.dat" files needed.

OK Tony.

Just try not to forget where we are. wink The only thing I need from you is a conversion factor for setting up the Tmod files. smile

From a post at the Gen:

Thanks. When it is ready can you please give me the 3dz lengths of the engine, tender and carriage so that I can investigate a conversion factor.


Did I miss something?

What is now clear is that the graphic is centred in the TModXYZ.dat length.
This was not obvious with the engine and the tender as they were the first two vehicles.
An engine which is too short followed by a tender which is too long may still look perfect.
In my testing I have been modifying the trnlist.mpf to have three or four engines next to each other in the train, followed by three or four tenders next to each other in the train. If you destroy the first engine to stop the train you can see if the distance values are correct, or adjust them if necessary.

Hi Tony.

I thought you had 3dz Studio?

Loco 40W 177L 64H
Tender 40W 121L 50H
Coach 44W 324L 68H
Wagon 42W X 102L 45H

I've had to shrinks the coach a touch, as it was a bit too big, and the loco needs to be a tad bigger, but work with what you have for now and try and get a conversion factor. wink
