Hi people,The 42 class cab is progressing very well (I have maybe 1 redo of the LEFT VIEW to do). But my problem is the creamyish (yes creamyish is now a word) lines on the RIGHT VIEW. What have I done wrong, and how do I fix it?
Thanks in advance,Ben

Your CabViewWindow area is too small in the X axis. I wrote a lengthy explanation on cvf parameters to a related question here:
http://www.train-sim.com/dcforum/DCForumID10/214.htmlBasically (looking at your screenshot) the Xmin needs to be smaller (so the left side will display) and the Xmax needs to be bigger (so the far right side will show).Yell if you need more info./Jimi

Good to hear it worked, Ben. This is (yet another of) those things in MSTS that requires "try it and see" methodology. One way to get close initially is to examine your cab graphic (640x480) in (say) PSP7. Put the cursor at the top/left of your left-most window then at the bottom/right of the right-most window, taking note of the cursor X/Y positions for both. That will tell you the X & Y min/max values that are needed. Add a little for safety. This process works for any of the views.Regards, Jimi

Yep, it is one of those, and I'm good at that. It took me like 2 minutes to work out what needs to be done. As a result, I'm a few days off finishing it.Thanks again,Ben
