Here is the next phase of the model, I don't have much time to work on it due to school. I just have to do some more texturing and then a hierarchy so the cable sheaves animate properly when introduced into the sim. Questions Comments Complaints Advice?

RE: Shaft Mine Update

Very interesting model, at some point I'm going to have to build a small 3' gauge mining line, maybe just 1 or 2 tiles in size. I'll be watching for more developements, along with Tim.

RE: Shaft Mine Update

I'd like to be a part of that if you'd like a hand. I am also working on some coal mining equipment( my true passion) but hard to choose (find) textures for. Also physics for the motors is really hard as I have no idea how these babys performed. All of it is 3' guaged and rather high in polys due to my obsession with detail.

RE: Shaft Mine Update

That does look nice. Maybe you could add a small mine car to the top of the tailings pile.Nick

RE: Shaft Mine Update

Well yal, here it is finally imported into the sim. Only problem, no animation. Just some last minute quirks and it should be ready for testing. Anybody wanna give it a run?

Thats great!! I love the mine cart. I'd test it for you, but I won't be around much the next few days. Nick
