I'm not gonna go into this in detail as there's a million posts on this subject. What you need to do is go to search and just start reading. Be patient, there's an awful lot of posts!

Basically the DEM (Degital Elevation Mapping) data is provided by the US government, and available from http://www.gisdatadepot.com/dem/demdownload.htmlThe extractor tool takes this data and converts it into a format that TrainSim can understand. This allows Route designers to obtain real life looking scenery. I must warn you that it is not a easy tool to use, but when it works, it works well.Sam Schulenburg Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top
