Fourth colour scheme complete : NS Cargo. Damn these models for Railworks take a lot more time than the stuff I did for MSTS !

Nearly ready....

Latest work - cabview coming on nicely.

I didn't know I had to, so no.

See now you could just be typing in Greek for as much sense as that made to me

One more thing to add, that I forgot. When I do the above process, no matter what child object I edit, the driver position always reverts to 0,0,0 at the same time. So to clarify, the child object I change PLUS the driver position.

No that's fair comment. So here's my workflow, assuming I already have a blueprint with the correct driver and light positions in it etc. Launch steam Launch Train Simulator 2012 Click on Tools&Docs Click on Asset Editor When the blueprint editor opens up, I browse to my engine XML file and double c...

For completeness, and future search engine reference: I have two cablights attached as children, both are point light blueprints, named CabLightL and CabLightR. Add this to your ENGINE script and the lights come on when you go into cabview and go out when you leave cabview: function OnCameraEnter (c...

Chris, Does this also happen when you clear the shapeviewer map (I believe it's in the assets/kuju map) before you open the model in the asset editor? Dick Honestly don't know - I'll give it a try this evening when I get home. Didn't realise this was one of those 'workarounds' that people were doing.

Brilliant - thanks.

Great thanks. That's why I started the other topic on the main board. I started thinking laterally and wondered if I could just add an object on/off call based on the active camera.

Quickie - can we detect which view is active using the LUA scripts? For example to turn geometry on or off dependent on which view is being used ?

Yep - confirmed. It's actually weirder than I thought. If I open up a model that I know has the child objects in the correct position, in the asset editor they all show at 0,0,0 as soon as it opens up. If I then drag them into the correct location and save the XML file again in the blueprint editor,...

Tried that. Didn't work. I mean it cast shadows outside from the interior light but what I'm after is the light not being on at all when I'm in the external view. I thought setting the mode in the light blueprint to "internal view" might do that but apparently not.
