RE: RMD-4, WidowMaker completed

Really haven't started on the scenery as such yet. I have "Y" sculpted most of the railroad & road paths, and I have put in approximately 80 miles of river, with perhaps 35 more to go - I use those water pieces a fellow in Australia put in the library, but I made them larger, i.e. longer to reduce the tile object count. I need to complete the trestles, just started on Dorsey Trestle, another 90 degree bend on a 18 degree curve, with the center bents 125ft. high, and there are 2 or 3 smaller ones. Also need one more large steel bridge on the NP, and one on the Milwaukee (Big Dick Creek - and the Forest Service says it does not refer to a part of anatomy). Then there are innerable buildings, etc. etc. etc. Finally the gantries go in, and that actually goes faster than one might think, the main problem being sidings & yards.I am guessing perhaps a late summery, early fall release on this one. Unlike some folks that use a team of individuals, I do it all myself, except of course using whatever shows up in the library that is useful. I have also created another dozen or so of custom TerrTex textures, mainly trying to get a pine forest looking reasonable.Jerry

Verry impressive Jerry. Absolutely beautiful. That's one tight curve. A reasonable 40.68-inch radius in HO scale!One question. Is there any way to use Ron Picardi's bridge pieces in Gmax instead of TSM?Mark

As far as I know, you cannot use Ron's bridge pieces in GMAX, but I am hardly an expert on the subject. I have GMAX, but have not attempted to do anything with it.Jerry
