>cool loco to have! Hi Grizzly How's U M8???I havn't seen Xacto on here for a while... I was starting to think the same thing too! It seems a lot of the original croud on here have vanished, or at least come in much less often. Pitty really because there was some serious tallent among them. Not that the current crop of designers are not tallented! There are some very nice projects in progress right now... But not a lot of steam it seems!Best Regards,

>us know. MSTS Is not moving forward!!!! Since when! Come on.... It might not be moving forward on your machine but it certainly is on mine thanks!! There are some great new things being designed for it, and some really nice new locomotives! Just look at the stuff that Train Artisan have been putting out Or Columbus Locomotive Works, or Captain Bazza!! Or Or Or Or... too many to mention. And far from the release of TSM reducing the quality of released models! It hasn't! It's allowed new designers with brilliant ideas to build locomotives. Designers that simply weren't prepared to spend two years struggling to learn 3D Max.I did see you say the other day that you were giving up on Trainsim because it was never going to look any good on your machine!! That's not the fault of Trainsim! It might be an idea to consider a bit of a hardware upgrade, you might see a few more ways in which it is moving forward then!Best Regards,

Dec-06-01, 06:33 PM (EST) 6. "RE: Hey Xacto: What happened to the Consolidated?" I kinda agree with Fozzy.Don't abandon the sim because it seems that a lot of things are falling into place.It's guys like you that make it happen.There's a hell of a lot of us that really appreciate the models being released.It would be a real shame if the modelling community disappeared.
