    All of those track profiles are available, mostly used with Dyna-Trax.

      Hi,
      "After you go to the experimental tab, and, change the ( 0 ) to an 1 or greater up to an max of 10"
      Where do you find the experimental tab?

      Geoff.

        Hi,
        I found the answer in the screenshot thread.
        It works.
        Far out.
        A neat feature.

        Regards Geoff.

          Hi,
          I just discovered that the passenger view tilts.

            Hi,
            jjtang might be able to answer this question.
            Using ORx with the Chinese carriages such as SYZ25B_DB in the folder CNPC_25B there is a box around each carriage which looks like tinted glass.
            Does not happen in Msts or OpenRails V8.

            Having never been in a Tilt train I reckon if they lean over like in the passenger veiw in ORx than you would end up with your lunch on the floor or in your lap.

            Regards Geoff

              No, because of centrifugal force. "Gravity", actually acceleration, will always be towards the floor of the car. Just like an airliner, you can't feel it bank, and if the windows are closed you'd never know it.

              If you drive on the freeway often, have you ever noticed the superelevation on the curves? Take a look from a safe viewpoint. You'll be surprised.

              My guess on the Chinese carriages is a problem with the .wag file, and it's using a freight animation that isn't centered correctly. Where did you download them from, I'd be able to take a look at them.

                  Hi,
                  That download has the carriages in it.
                  Further tests reveal that in CNPC_25B folder these carriages

                  SCA25B_2727.wag have a greybox in shapeveiwer which hides the carriage
                  SCA25B_GS.wag looks Ok
                  SRW25B_2727.wag have a greybox in shapeveiwer which hides the carriage
                  SRW25B_DB.wag looks Ok

                  All of these 4 carriages have a transparent box in OR X around them.

                  In OpenRails V8 SCA25B_2727.wag has a greybox which hides the carriage.
                  SRW25B_2727.wag has a greybox which hides the carriage.

                  No problems with them in Msts.

                  Regards Geoff.

                    Hi,

                    Some examples of the problem.

                    In Shape Veiwer


                    In Msts


                    In OR V08


                    In ORX
                    Notice the carriage is tilted?????
                    The consist used is named DF10D_0065-SCA25B_2727_test.



                    Regards Geoff.
