headout

Jon solved my first problem. Can someone solve my second.
Bbritish locos are driven on the left side. Can anyone tell me how to get the headout on the left side?.

Hi
Which bit didn't work?

All fiqures are in metres
the camera starts right in the centre of the model at rail level

The first fiqure is X (or width) minus is to the left of central position, positive is to the right of central position

The second fiqure is Y (or height) positive above the rail level .

The third fiqure is Z (or length) positive is forwards from the central position, minus is rearwards from the central position.

Cheers
Jon

Hello Jon

I found that some locos work and some don't. I've checked all the eng files. Even though they are all minus.

Thanks for your time and effort

Sorry to complicate matters, but not all UK locos were left hand drive. BR standards were, but the GWR was right hand drive. As an example, on the Southern, the former SECR was RHD, as was the former LSWR. The old LBSC section was LHD, and new Southern locos were all built to LHD. Some parts of the LMS was right hand drive, some were left and so were parts of the LNER, it usually depended on the company that the line came from before the grouping.
