------------------------------------------------------------------A Penn Central Activity pack for the Default NorthEast Corridor route which will make extensive use of all these northeastern rolling stock and will feature prototypical and diverse consists and heavy, interesting AI traffic. DUE shortly before Christmas!!!-------------------------------------------------------------------A Christmas Night-Lighting texture pack for the NEC route....this will turn you NEC route (or any route using the default buildings and trees) into one big Christmas Festival of Lights!!The picture below just doesnt do the textures justice due to the JPEG compression, but here it is anyway!!!
--------------------------------------------------------------------Oil Refinery Main Fractionating tower ROUTE OBJECT PACK!!!loosely based on Walther's HO scale North Island Refinery (pic below), 
my version will have work lights and interior process detail that stays lit even when its starting to get dark in msts but not enough to activate the night textures!!!
Extensive use of custom made alpha textures means a highly detailed route object you can use close to the tracks but still has an acceptable number of polygons to help preserve decent framerates!!!Note: this model pack is not yet finished and will include better textures, more piping detail, a better heat-exchanger piping rack and will also come with pipe sections to connect with storage tanks, a tankcar loading rack with worklights and a flarestack with an animated, light up flame!!!Use this Refinery model pack along with Enocells tanks and industrial buildings and Jan Willems refinery objects to make an impressive industry for your route!!!
This object should also be available before christmas as a thankyou to all the great route designers who help keep our interest in msts!!!From TKW, have a Nice Thanksgiving and an even better Christmas!!!Bill Bzak aka Longhairedwizardbbzak@msn.com
