Feb-12-02, 10:34 AM (EST) 1. "RE: Another Crossing signal for your approval" I'll be using a lot of those, if you make it available and *IF* I get a route started. I think you're doing a great job at getting our (NoAm) crossings protected.How's tha A-Line coming? Looks pretty good from what I can see in the screenshot.Henry Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

Feb-12-02, 10:43 AM (EST) 2. "RE: Another Crossing signal for your approval" The route is going well currently, lots more to do - but i think the route is being represented accurately - of course there is always room for improvementi have released an alpha version to my group and the reviews have been good so far.

Feb-12-02, 07:22 PM (EST) 8. "RE: Another Crossing signal for your approval" Hey Jason, love those "Highway" style lights....always did.
I had some ideas about animating the flashing....The other day I was exploring the Tapiola route and I noticed the animated oil pump. Now I don't know to much about how the animation was done for that but I'm thinking it might cycle through shape or texure files (like a movie film...different "frames" in sequence to produce "movement") Now since you have already got at least one light to light up, you could create two versions of the signal..one with the left and one with the right lights lit, and animate them which would produce the flashing effect.....wish I knew more about animating 3D-objects but I think this may be the key.

Feb-12-02, 09:39 PM (EST) 11. "RE: Another Crossing signal for your approval" Hey Jason,
I'm deleting the crossing signals that came with MSTS and will be using the ones your making up. Good Job. I'm made a wig wag but haven't had a chance to delve into the animation. Is it simular to the crossing gate animation?Best Regards

Feb-13-02, 02:54 AM (EST) 12. "If I may ask..........." Jason,What are the differences between your crossings and the default ones in MSTS?Is it just cosmetic (visual) or are there logical differences too?Just wondering..........Regards,

This discussion doesn't say whether or not you're having trouble with the animation. If you are, the link below might be useful: http://www.train-sim.com/dcforum/DCForumID3/6483.htmlAt any rate, the gates LOOK good! Clayton Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top
