Some Open Rails Questions

Does anybody know why this created by me Clouds01.png of the same size as the ORTS one shows like that in the route ?

Hi,

Looking at the Clouds01.png that ships with ORTS with Irfanview's create tiled image, the ORTS image tiles without "seams", whereas it appears yours does not tile without "seams". (I have Irfanview set to make a 3 x 3 tiled image).

It seems the low "dome" in ORTS works similar, but not exactly like the MSTS sky domes. That does answer my question as to how that works. Thanks.

Otto, obviously this is all subjective but to my eye everyone of those images looks like cr@p. I've seen cheap cartoons on TV that look better. Not even lakes filled with micro-glacial silt look like that water. What is reasonably correct for the appearance of sky varies quite considerably over geography and weather conditions... from near white 99.9% humidity on a very hot day to brilliant darker-than-most blue over cold ocean water. Kosmos was ok in it's day but it's day was > 12 years ago in MSTS.

There's plenty wrong with using the image as a base for setting your colors, not the least of which is saturation, contrast, use of blue filter, color fringe, and late afternoon lighting. Time to come back to Earth, Otto.

I am on Terra Firma and happy with what I can do with Train Simulators !

I'm just yanking your chain a bit, Otto.
