Track Shape Problems.

Post by andrewgadd »

Does any bright spark have any idea of what is going on here, the track is UK Scale Narrow Gauge available from the library (UKNG_Track.zip) and although I have messed around with the textures I have this problem with the shape.

The strange thing is it only happens with a few of the sections of track and even more strange only at one end of the section!!!
Any idea’s please.
Thanks.

It would appear that the graphics for one of the sections do not have the same length as the path defined in the tsection.dat file.

What you see on the screen is based entirely on the graphics of the .S file. The snapping together of the pieces and the generation of the track database lines is based entirely on the definitions in the tsection.dat file.

The usual convention is that the graphics and the tsection.dat/database information match each other, but the sim really doesn't give a **** whether they have any relationship or not.
