Hi Sam,I just downloaded your Dash 7 Cabview for my C30-7's/U33C's and was going to install it in my U30B and remembered there's no center frame for the front window.My question is if you have any plans to modify this cabview sometime in the future (when time permits, yeah, right )?Another question I have is that I also installed the NALW GP38 cabview and would like to adjust my point of view so that I'm a little closer to the R.H. side of the cab and also raise my line of vision.I understand this is in the .cvf file, but just need to be pointed in the right direction.Thanks much in advance.Respectfully,santafewilly

Given time all things are possible! I am currently remodelling the existing set to include wipers and creating a forward facing left hand view as with the Dash 8. Haven't looked at major modifications yet... the layout would need changing with no centre post to attach the cab signals to and so on... Let's just say that it is on the list. >Another question I have is that >I also installed the NALW >GP38 cabview and would like >to adjust my point of >view so that I'm a >little closer to the R.H. >side of the cab and >also raise my line of >vision. Actually, NALW haven't released a GP38 - I suspect that you have JohanSteam's latest. NALW only helped with some painting and packaging! Johan did all the hard work!>I understand this is in the >.cvf file, but just need >to be pointed in the >right direction. In the cvf file, there are several lines per view (left, front, right). The lines which affec the view are: Position ( x y z ) Direction ( x y z )Position x= right of centre (-x = left of centre) y= height above the rails z= forward of loco's centre point (-z = towards the rear)Direction x = down or up (-x) y= right or left (-y) z= tilt left or right>Thanks much in advance. Hope this helps.-------SamSpade-------- ---"Power for You"---
Hi Sam,Thanks for the info. After I had made this post, I was looking through some more topics in the cab forum and found a post in which you answered someone else's question regarding cabview positioning, but thanks for responding to my questions all the same.Will be looking for your efforts when you make them available!Respectfully,santafewilly
Okay, so are those numbers for the engineer's eye position, or are they for the center of the window, you measure in the x y and z from the rails to what???Diesel Industries David E Miller Collection: www.hankstruckpictures.com/trucks.htmkwk100
In this case they are for the Engineer's Eyeball! FYI that is also the format XYZ for all on/in Engine or Car locations in the sim... Use full for placing lights for instance------Chuck Schneider--------- -----"Power for You"-------
