    Idiots guide to bve!!!!!!!!

    Is there one i think that if there was one it would speed up the bve developments on trains and routes as i often wanted to make my own routes and trains but i don't even know ware to start or what to do i understand that it's not easy nor do i want to put anyone down but if there was like a manual or something like that and then we can all enjoy lots of more routes and trains for the best train sim on any compter.:-)

    There are a variety of help and tutorials available; the complexity varies! The ones I have made most use of are:


    1. A guide to csv commands, available at http://www.virtual-rail.co.uk/bvecsvcommands.htm

    2. Al Barten's guides to coding and object making, availabe at http://alfredbarten.com/BVE_dev.html

    3. I use RouteBuilder to build my routes; I like it because you can scan a map into your pc, then use that to "draw" your railway route, then tweak it to make it look good and add scenery, working signals, etc., to as much or as little detail as you want. It is available at www.bve-routes.com and it comes with quite a good manual for beginners.

    4. A "Tips & Tricks" forum has been started to help make building routes in RouteBuilder easier and simpler; it's at http://www.bve-tools.com/en/board/bo...ce17129fdf45be but, as it's brand new, it's a bit limited; I'm writing a "tip & trick" on building good curved track using the RB graphic editor.

    5. There's a discussion on train cab specs elsewhere on this forum.


    I'm sure there are other resources, but these are the ones I found most useful.
