Advice & a Request for GW Fence & Water Cranes
This may sound silly but how do you undo a terrain change? (Michael Vone book says to use back quote) but how do you get a back quote without typing some thing after the forward quote i.e. “Aâ€
The key in the top left corner under the escape key undoes the last terrain change. Control and the key in the corner together undo all terrain changes back to the last save.
I thought there were water cranes in the Highworth collection...
Anyway about fences, I could send you a wire and post fence I put together for Auto gantry, although it is not a low poly one like the Highworth one. (I have made spacings for 1 and 2 tracks, but can easily be expanded to 4 and 6 tracks... in fact perhaps I should just upload it to UKTS). (If you want to make your own version of the Highworth low poly fence then it is just basically a transparent texture on either side of a flat box (2 sided polygon)).

Re: Advice & a Request for GW Fence & Water Cranes
Are these not on the Highworth web site? Decapod built conical capped and flat capped cylindrical water tanks and ground and platform level water cranes, long arm and short arm, left and right handed for my Swindon model (Swindon had lots of water cranesLocoLes wrote:Can you also create the very distinctive GWR water columns both ground and platform height. (I am surprised the other GWR routes haven’t needed these.)
If they are not on the Hw site, e-mail me and I'll send them to you. They were all going to be special releases with Highworth but that route is so delayed now that they may as well be handed out to help other GWR modellers.

Thank you DarwinS - that’s a key I never use and didn’t quite know what it was for.
I did check the Highworth site and there was only the conical water tower.
The route I am working on has mainly quadruple track expanding to 5 or 6 in places.
As I said the Low Poly Highworth Fence is very good but it means going up one side and down the other which is a bit of a bind. It would be nice even in manual mode to do both sides at once. Unfortunately, I lack the ability to do as you said and wondered if you would be able to upload a 2, a 4 and a 6 Track Low Poly fence similar to Highworth wire fence. Thanks for your help anyway.
