    Scenery Items

    It's surprising what is actually 'out in the wild' that has the potential for being included in Open Rails.

    This, for example, could easily be used with the SIM after a little tweakage and a LOD creation (Of course, this is not my model, but it is royalty-free... so usable as an asset) :

    It looks fantastic Pete. That would be a great asset on any modern route.
    Cheers!

          Always could use garbage trucks for any route honestly.

            In my search for a crane truck (I couldn't find one anywhere), I had to improvise.
            Sometimes I see footage of them lifting trucks and diesel engines.

                WOW Pete, that really looks great! I look forward to seeing the finished product. Reminds me of Ian's fire trucks.

                  Well, I have a good graphics card and a decent PC, so why not a decent piece of scenery with enough poly's to look right. Its only 5000 poly's at LOD0 (haha) and 1500 at LOD1.

                  If anyone wants to see a pre-release version, there is a beta version here: http://railsimstuff.com/files/GarbageTruck.zip

                  Link may not remain valid once the final release is made.

                    That looks really great Pete. I imagine that truck will be popping up on routes everywhere.

                      This one is not done yet... but I'm trying to come up with variations:

                        Never enough clutter... and now we have something to haul it away with, too?
                        If you like what you see here at Trainsim.com, be it the discussions and knowledge in the forums, or items available in our library, I hope you'll consider a paid membership to help support keeping the site operating.... Thanks!

                          Ok, the Republic Services one is essentially done... I'm hoping for some feedback on the Beta release (I don't have a way to test without pulling my hair out at the moment.

                          Anyway, final WIP Shots are below.

                            Ok, that took less work than I thought.

                              Man, RR&R (Reduce-Reuse-Recycle) Services Inc. might need a new truck! Orangish, black, and yellow. Lol.
