Nov-11-01, 12:46 PM (EDT) "#3 View during some activities" I have noticed that when playing the NEC 1st Haul activity (either 2 or 3) there are times when the #3 view shows from the rear of the third engine and not the train. Does this mean the freight car that is connected to the last engine has a problem with its size making the view protion of the program think it is not there? Had experienced this with the stack cars, but after changing their length the problem seemed to clear up. Now when I coupled the first set of cars for the third activity, it came back.

It doesn't move to the back automatically. In fact, you may need to move it to the front before you can go to the back. If you move the #2 view around, you will find it does the same thing.

Playing with it I found that CTRl up-arrow raises the camera (until it is directly overhead). CTRL down-arrow moves it to ground level.Amazing the number of things that are found that aren't documented. Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top
