    VIA Rail Canada set

    Hello!

    I'm working on bringing Gaétan Bélanger's VIA passenger car set into OR. While it was a real banger for its time, when placed in consists with other VIA equipment like SLI, the limitations in textures at the time really show.

    I've recently discovered that the doors were animated, which I've not known in the 20-ish years I've had these cars! Either I didn't know how to work that feature, or I just didn't know it existed. In any case, I know it exists now, but it does not seem to work correctly.

    Has someone managed to get it to work? Is it an addition in the .wag file? Is it buried within the .s file itself? I've tried to search for the original documentation to find the original key combination (knowing that OR might recognize it, but it might not) but have come up empty.

    Does anyone know if there are any new developments of VIA Rail's Budd equipment coming down the pipe from anywhere anytime soon?

    Thanks!

    Normally animation is added while drawing a piece of rolling stock. It would be in the shape file and not the wagon file. Without the original TS Modeler files it would be had to do any adjustments.

      Hi Paul,

      Thanks for the reply! That was what I was afraid of, but it is what it is!

      If anyone knows the original key commands, for it, I'm all ears!
