Replacement MSTS Tram Screens

smudge5609 · Post by **smudge5609** » Wed Aug 04, 2004 5:08 pm

Hi,

I'm sure this was suggested somewhere a while back, but thought it would be a good idea to assemble some replacement screens for train sim to reflect the tram scene.

Basically these would replace the loading, menu screens etc.
An example of such...

I don't have a great deal of useable tram images in my archive, well one's that i own anyway, so I thought it could be a community effort, where people could contribute there own images. Each image could then be tagged with the owners name.

Thoughts, images (800 x 600 resolution minimum) etc, let me know.

Just an idea really!

Cheers, Chris

I'm all in favour of this Chris, great idea. PUT ME DOWN FOR A GODDESS OR BABY GRAND

The one at Crich will do nicely

Just off to Fleetwood now, for a couple of hours, to get the MSTS Tram Sunday scene looking a bit better.

LOL - it seems like a good idea! I like the 'tram' simulator bit

Sorry if I sound a bit dumb but you mean it would be simular to the SVR ones, wouldn't it?

How about a montage of different tram shots...say a mixture of old and new trams. I think they would look good together..

As long as you are Nick Forgham

Nice bit of modern image to add to the list, thanks!

Not sure about a montage, in my honest opinion they take a long time to do and give just ok results. There is about 7 different screens to do, so a mix of modern and old would be great.

Cheers, Chris

Each screen could depict a different tramway maybe? Certainly like the Tram simulator bit, and that shot of Crich is very nice indeed.

Ill have to have a look and see what ive got on the PC tram wise.
