 QUESTIONS, COMMENTS, ACCOLADES, AND GRIPES


This is the only page upon which I encourage comments, accolades (at-a-boys), and gripes. I do not want the other pages of my Blog to become cluttered. All comments posted here will be given due consideration and will hopefully result in an improvement to my Blog, such that we can all benefit.

When you leave a comment here please keep it on a helpful note. Additional comments telling me why you feel the way you do, and a suggestion of how something could be improved, are always welcome.

Thanks Kindly,
Grant

Hey Grant. Looking forward to your release date. I live in SW B.C. (Lower Mainland) along the CN New Westminster Sub at Lake City. I've been following your tutorial blogs and so far they are the best that I've been able to find. Videos on You Tube are great but often rushed and hard to follow. I've decided to make an attempt at creating the B.C. Rail Squamish Sub, between N. Vancouver and Squamish and if that goes well, I'll continue the line North to Lillooet. Chris

I'm looking forward to it, as well. Unfortunately, daily clamor and a recent death in the family has resulted in a significant break from the creation of the route. It is my intention to resume building within the next couple of months.

Route Building #5 - The Railworks World Editor From this point onward, it is highly recommended that you build your route in a windowed mode of Railworks. Full screen mode hides the 'close window' button in the upper right-hand corner of the window. Clicking this button is the only way I know of to close the program without saving. SUMMARY of Previous Tutorials By this point in the process: You ought to have completed the previous tutorials and have devised a plan for Where, When, What, and How.  You will need to have your start point coordinates written down for when you first create your route template. These coordinates use the Lat/Long format (eg. 55.83625  -115.3392) You will have chosen the Provider and Product names for your route, being careful to avoid names that may already be in use. A lot of authors will use their forum handle as their Provider folder name in order to avoid naming conflicts with others. The Product folder name is the unique name of the rou...

TS2017 ROUTE BUILDING #10 - Manipulating Track In this tutorial, I will attempt to address the various aspects of track manipulation. You will learn how to change track gradient, split a track piece, join one track to another, weld track, etc. CHANGING TRACK GRADIENT Let us go to the World Editor now; opened up to your route. You may have laid several track pieces by now and it is probably becoming apparent that you'll need to make some adjustments for the general contour of the route terrain. This is accomplished by the use of the Elevation Tool. To activate the Elevation Tool, click on the Gradient icon in the Main Toolbox. It looks like the ramp we saw in the track characteristics panel. Click on it and you will see yellow, upward pointing arrows appear on your track at the break points. When you hover your cursor very near the track another yellow arrow will appear on the track indicating your cursor position. You can click anywhere on the track to set another brea...
