Identify linear objects?

Post by cilldroichid »

Hi all,

I've been dabbling around in the editor the last week or so, and i'm wondering is there a way to identify linear objects used in existing routes. The right hand box does not show the object name with a linear object, like it does with scenery objects.

Thanks.

You may be able to with RW Tools - have a look under Asset Editor.

If you use the markup tool (orange dashed square to the left in top fly-out), and mark some stretch, then the properties of that are shown on the right.

This only works with track objects, unfortunately, not with roads, fences or other lofted items

Thanks for the replies.

I suppose its a matter of trail and error, checking what things look like in the editor, using RWTools to point me in the right direction, checking what items are on a route.

At the moment i'm browsing around routes looking at assets i might like to use in my first attempt at trying to build a route.
