Apr-05-02, 03:39 AM (EST) "Out of the windows" I've had an idea.....From the cab view you can hang out of the window on some trains (mainly steam but diesel's are growing in popularity). Is it possible to create a view out of the opposite window (most trains have "out of the right window" views when you press the up or down key) is it possible to assign say the "`" key (the one next to the "1") to say the left window. Its just I've started to try and do switching activities from the cab (makes it a tad more realistic) and if your going round a left hand curve you can't see the back of the train.The logistics call for the flipping of the ace and alpha channel but don't know if it is that simple and also getting the point of view or getting the key assignment is something I can't work out.Obviously this would have to be a seperate view as the driver would have to get out of his seat and trot to the other side of the cab to look out of the window so this shouldn't clash with the cab view out of the windowAny one any ideas as to whether this would work.

I don't think you can add views in to the game otherwise there would be a ton that make sence...Hanging off of the rear of the Loco locking back or forward for coupling for instance. Ronson
