BVE: Do they think we are stupid?

[vince_black]

Hi,

sorry for this rought title, but today I downloaded and installed route "Nogi Shintoshi Kiko - Nogimachi Loop Monorail" (URL http://bvessj.net/bve/download/dairi...oad.php?id=266, info on BVE Routes Wiki is here http://wiki.bve-routes.com/index.php..._Loop_Monorail).

Check the screenshots in attachment and write what you are thinking about this. Is it any kind of joke? Do we really need this in the age of routes like Birmingham, Maybank, Watford etc.?

Perhaps the poor quality is more reflective of the author than anybody else.

The guy's probably a beginner...a novice...he did better than me...

I tried to make a fictional route: a Coney Island Boardwalk Tram...all i have is track...I just started creating routes...cannot get it right

Vince,
Well, BVE routes Wiki is a Wiki... so it is opened to everybody input.
Yes, we see sometimes some very awful routes (such as this one), but we also have to think about those who would like to write their own route(s) (and I am still unavailable to produce even one km of route). These super simple routes can be considered, on a minimum, as tutorials, which can be used such as Lego games, explaining, by the example, how to write a route. Maybe these lines could be grouped, in the Wiki, under a simple category ("tutorials") but on which basis? Absence of landscapes? Absence of buildings? Absence of crossing trains?...
