Re: Is RailSim too complex?

I have made quite a few models with 3DCanvas, but I find importing very difficult. The other issue is it seems like RSDL have no one who knows about 3DCanvas, I understand that they use 3DS Max but it would be useful to have someone who knows about 3D Canvas to provide support to probably the most u...

Re: Help with my pink bridge!

With alpha how do you choose then set either transparency or specular? Is it done when the textures are applied to the model in the 3D CAD program? This what I am trying to avoid, http://img514.imageshack.us/img514/2640/shineytw1.jpg http://img514.imageshack.us/img514/3978/shiney2gc7.jpg RSAdam Reck...

I created a plain white alpha with with TGATools as I converted the texures to a .ace. clearly this is incorrect...
