    The second pic reminded me, instantly of a near identical bridge and location in Portland, Or. USA, where I lived for many years.
    Google Maps link. N.W. Naito Parkway & the Broadway Bridge.

    The street view is obscured by trees, which have grown to full size since I was last there. But at one time the view was nearly identical to your screenshot :):thumbs_up:
    Zooming to street view on the bridge itself, shows full railings and sidewalks, supporting your idea for Richard.

    Ulli Hildener - I have a super detailed Christmas model railroad layout and session that is full of Christmas decor that I modeled, and some imports from Sketchfab. The lights and trees listed above by Escd84, and more.

    Aw man... I am going to miss that guy.

    Healthy arguments on trainz.de and here, with him - very similar interests re: German period structures.
    We even used alot of the same texture sets in our models !

    He could piss me off while congratulating a build, and make snarky comments all at the same time.

    Yeah, he could be a difficult personality, but also quite supportive and helpful. I will miss our interactions greatly.

  • Warum verändert sich das Höhenmodell des Untergrunds beim Auftragen von Texturen ?

    HoboTom -

    Since you are experiencing this problem mostly along your track right-of-way, this is 99% likely the long existing issue of mixing PBR textures with non-PBR tetxures. Both the texture under the track-bed and along the track bed where it intersects with the surrounding terrain, you will need to use a blend of 2-3 PBR textures to eliminate the problem, depending on your terrain type.

    I suggest using the textures by johnnyc1 on the DLS. They are all PBR, comprising an extensive library of 5523 PBR textures. It can take some time to find the textures you need, but the effort is worth the time invested.

  • Mit der Schmalspurbahn ins Zittauer Gebirge

    Looking forward to more pictures Stefan24 !

    I love everything about this railway. The interesting paths the rails take through some of the towns, The unusual sidings and run-around yards.
    That weird diagonal rail-road bridge. The cool looking rail/road bridge crossings.

    I have a few nice DE houses and other German specific scenery assets, that I modeled for my Petersdorf model railroad, and the Spalt-Georgensgmünd shortline.

    If you have not already used them, they could look nice on this railway, maybe?

  • Tragschnabelwagen

    Basti87 - The 1st set of Schnabel cars is made by Ocemy. I own the full set, which I bought on the old Simulator Central website.
    I do not see it available on the Trainz Store and ocemy's old website http://www.ocemy.com is no longer around.

    Might be a good idea to ask about the status of the Schnable car set with N3V.

    I do see that it is available on Steam for TRS2022, but only the grey car set.
    All reviews are bad, due to none of the purchasers being able to install the DLC.

    Hello Reichsbahner :waving_hand:

    The author is smejki04.
    He and his group are only active on the Smejki Facebook page, here >>> Šmejkiho vláčky pro TRS
    I did find all of the kuids on trainzland.ru, here as well. >>> Kuid Search 6 results found

    If you go to the Facebook group, you can ask for help in getting those missing kuids.
    I suggest to be especially polite in asking, as smejki04 is a very particular fellow, and can be a bit persnickety about his assets.

    I speak from experience. As a non-Czech, posting in English in their group, I have to be careful not to offend anyone in that group.
    Nice guys all, but some are, like I said a bit touchy to deal with. :OK_hand:

  • MAN 630 L2A

    Great looking truck hadotwe ! I quite lik all these MAN trucks you're making :clinking_beer_mugs:

    I would like to see this Teal and White MAN_630_L2A_Kommandowagen livery if possible?
    I think it would fit in as a nice company crew bus as well. :smiling_face_with_smiling_eyes:

    If you don't have the time, perhaps you could dropbox the mesh/ and textures, and I could make the livery?
    Either send it back to you for publishing, or I could publish with original mesh/texture credits, on the DLS ?

    Off topic question: Do you have access to any Unimog trucks?

    I'm thinking the 416 DOKA chassis, and/or the basic 416 with various work tool flat, box, stakeside beds similar to the MAN series vehicles you've already made?
    The 416 is a nice model type to use in Trainz as they are used from 1974 through today.

    Cheers

  • Irgendwo auf dem Erdball

    Those canals look great Reichsbahner !

    If you don't mind a little constructive criticism?

    The water level is too high, in the 1st, 2nd and last screenshot.

    1st and 2nd should have a water level maybe 4-5 meters lower.
    The boat docks would be lower at the base of a 4-5 meters lower, sea/canal wall.
    With either a wood dock and stairs going up, or a stone dock and stairs going up.

    That would look more prototypical I think. :)


    The 3rd screenshot has a water height that's near perfect for those canals. :OK_hand:
    I suggest placing one of the Gondolier boats with pilot under the bridge and then set the water height.
    As you have it now, none of the boats can fit under the bridges. :winking_face:

    Overall I really like this project, it reminds me very much of canal building in Cities: Skylines !
