Atomic Systems

I am trying to build a very simple scenery item with no LoDs, night or winter textures textures just to get the system tested and working to ensure I can create scenery models for a route I am building in TS2020. When I export it tells me that the export has been successful. When I use Blueprint Edi...

Andis, I think I am almost there. I have added the texture file where you indicated and I now have a file generated called ".blend.igs" - this dont seem quite right as it doesnt seem to have a name. The Log file reads: BRIAGE:: 'PROPERTY': MainObject to find = 1_1000_Post1 BRIAGE:: 'PROPERTY': MainO...

Can't find any trace of a "slot list" under thwe IGS options - where should that be

Material Properties Tab fully expanded:

[album 46253 matprops2.jpg]
[album 46253 matprops3.jpg]

Ill sort out the texture file once I can get this to run (if I ever do!), one thing at a time!

I also get a huge error report that flashes up when I try to export, over and above the Log file. I have taken screen shots attached:

Andis, I hope the following screenshots work! Its been a long time since I did this. [album 46253 Log1.jpg] [album 46253 Log2.jpg] The Blender log file reads: BRIAGE:: 'PROPERTY': MainObject to find = 1_1000_Post2 BRIAGE:: 'PROPERTY': MainObject found = 1_1000_Post2 BRIAGE:: 'ERROR': Missing image f...

Got that Andis, thanks. Still can't find any trace of this mysterious Slot '0' which seems to be the root cause of my current problem. When I scroll down the "Slot window" (my term - hovering the cursor over it dont bring up a name) in the top bar of the Shader Nodes Window between "Use Nodes" and "...

Andis, you said "click icon to the left of the red&white checker board" - can you explain exactly where this icon is and what it looks like? I cant find an icon to the left of the red&white checker board. The only red & white checker board I have is the textures properties tab down the left of the u...

Andis, I think I'm maybe nearly there. I have followed your advice and the model looks something like. I have set all materials at "Material". When I try to export I get the following error in the Log: BRIAGE:: 'PROPERTY': MainObject to find = 1_1000_Post2 BRIAGE:: 'PROPERTY': MainObject found = 1_1...

Juju, you are absolutely spot on that something is needed to teach computer philistines like me a simple way of building, texturing and exporting models in Blender to TrainSim, but I have to wholeheartedly agree with Andis regarding videos. Permit me please to put in my pennyworth here. I don't like...

Oh dear - this is getting far, far too complex for me - it seems to put layer upon layer upon layer of increasing complexity. I think I may abandon the whole project. There's hardly a mention of Blueprint Editors in the Briage manual. All I wanted to do was create some simple scenery items - it was ...

Blimey, I thought I was almost there. This is much more complex than I thought. I have reinstalled Blender to my reorganised "Source" directory from which I have archived/deleted many obsolete directories and files. This has always been a sub-directory in my Railworks folder which has the following ...

I am new to Blender and am currently stalled on a scarily steep learning curve! I have installed Blender 2.80 with exporter Briage 3.11.817. I have built and textured a 5 bar gate with the texture ace file in the correct directory for the gate in "Assets/..." where my error log is deposited every ti...

I envy you, Steve. I am afraid that I have no choice but to climb the mountain. I have managed to build a .blend file of a 5 bar gate, all I have to do now is to learn how to texture it and then to export it into TrainSim 2020. Does anyone have any ideas of how to learn how to do this? With both TS ...

Thanks for your help, everyone - it is appreciated. I did have a licence code for an antique version of 3DC plus but that went ages ago on a huge PC crash. As far as the website Ozziedriver, that's where I just downloaded the free version that dont contain the Trainsim plugins. I have tried to get t...

I've been looking into this a bit further - the free download is bereft of the trainsim plug in - this was only included in the "plus" and "pro" versions. I used to have the plus version but that has now gone - does anyone know where I can get a download of the plus version from or is there a TrainS...
