Rich,
The only thing I would have done differently would be to try to catch some shadows. I run with dynamic shadows off, but turn them on when I ask a loco to "pose" for a picture. I suspect though, that you had a little more interest in looking at and showing us the new scenery than the Otten engine. To get the other shadows, set the sim to early morning or late afternoon, with different Sky Conductor settings. The low sun makes all of your scenery blow my mind !!BTW the tree and shrub setups look more natural with each peek that we get to see. Build 11 looks like it will be awesome.Bob K.

You know.. I always forget what settings I have set no matter which game it is I'm playing. I forgot all about the shadows cause I do have 'em turned off. Thanks for the tip. But you are right, I was inspecting scenery when I took this shot. I usually never go into the sim to get pictures. I just see something and snap it usually 'just' after I've seen it.Rich Garber
