Thank you, team, for the speed notification.

[seagoon]

Just a quick "thanks, guys" for the little pop-up on the info bar which lets us know that the end of the train has passed the speed sign.

I'll second that. Until someone can come up with a counter used to count feet traveled and you know the length of your train, this makes it much more realistic.

Now if that pesky horn would blast a quick short....hint hint

You mean something almost like this?

[jiggywatt]

OK... How did you do that?

[mikephfl]

Not only how did he do that, what route is that? Looks awesome.

[seagoon]

Nice.

(Looks & sounds more like a Run 8 cab than OR.)

It appears to be the LaSalle, Rockford & Central

I noticed the cab was very detailed, almost 3D like.

So now if we could get him to give up some of his secrets. I promise not to tell anyone

[jjtang]

Not sure how he did that.

By adding about 300 lines of code into OR, we can have 3D cab almost functioning along with MSTS cab settings (just need to name parts of the 3D cab model carefully).

jjtang, perhaps you and I could discuss that, after all, I do a fairly decent job at 3d modelling, perhaps we could do a couple of different styles of 3d cabs, the older analog, and the new desktop style...

Analog is actually easier to achieve by using only animations. The design I came up with is to read MSTS cab configurations and determine how to animate 3D model parts, by naming those parts following some simple conventions. So far I only have troubles with water gauges and 3D digits.

[rdamurphy]

I'll PM you over at Elvas Tower...

If you can send me the code, I'm sure I can figure out how to make it work.

Yea the route is the LaSalle, Rockford & Central, the cab is a Mod I did of the Eds Trains UP C45ACCTE set and I was using my HD camera built in my phone to record that video.

Can you tell us how you got the short horn blast to work?

Thanks.

Thanks.

I relooped the horn with a couple of cue point, sms modifications along with making some mods to other horns till OR comes with a way to let horns turn off after button releases fast by making horn wav files last less then 1 second.
