Building 3D models of New South Wales railways for the Trainz Railroad Simulator. Monday, December 05, 2005. The picture above also shows the right hand side, with the completed skirt that I mentioned earlier, and is a change from the usual left side shots I have been posting. The roof and other pieces are hidden from the picture. Thank god for decent engineers! I dont have a lot of reference material for this project. Im working mainly from the info on the Cityrail Fleet. For example: After having made ...

Redfern Workshopz: Reader Question: How do I do it?
http://redfernworkshopz.blogspot.com/2009/06/reader-question-how-do-i-do-it.html
Building 3D models of New South Wales railways for the Trainz Railroad Simulator. Tuesday, June 02, 2009. Reader Question: How do I do it? How I approach modelling - Do I use a lot of separate shapes, or do I start with one segmented box and twist/taper it into he shape I want? As far as alignment goes. as I have said before. Its hard to explain, but, its its pretty much just math, and having a good idea in your head of the 3D relationships between the parts, and then a lot of tweaking verticies! More ad...

Building 3D models of New South Wales railways for the Trainz Railroad Simulator. Thursday, July 27, 2006. Ive been working with Gmax on and off over the last couple of weeks. I havnt managed to get back in to my obsessive, every day, gmax habit that I was in before, but Im in there at least a couple of times a week recently. I know there is quite a long way to go. After 9 months, I really wish it was all finished, but theres many more months left to complete all of my currently active projects, and ...

Building 3D models of New South Wales railways for the Trainz Railroad Simulator. Friday, February 13, 2009. Well, as promised, My wife has started repairing all the dead computers around here, and the first to be resurrected was my development system, aka "Minotaur". So now Im off to re-learn Gmax, and get the system set up the way I like it again. Saturday, February 07, 2009. Sneaks in hoping no-one notices*. Wow Its been a while. This project has always been in the back of my mind, but several factors...

Building 3D models of New South Wales railways for the Trainz Railroad Simulator. Sunday, September 03, 2006. Life is what happens while we are busy making other plans. You will have read below that after 7 months I needed to get away from 3D modelling for a while - which I did. I started to get back into it, but a lot has been hapenning in my life recently, and on top of that, once I stopped modelling for a while, I started noticing all those other things that I had been ignoring for 7 months. View my c...

Building 3D models of New South Wales railways for the Trainz Railroad Simulator. Tuesday, June 14, 2011. Updated Buffers on DLS. I've uploaded new versions of the NSW Wooden Buffers to the DLS, and they should be available soon. The good news is the flicker is Totally Gone! The 86 Class and Tangara will share much of the script (They're both Electric Multiple Units, so share similar functions) so both models will benefit. I expect the 86 Class will be on my test track for some time, while it gets al...

Building 3D models of New South Wales railways for the Trainz Railroad Simulator. Wednesday, June 21, 2006. Buffers, Tangara, and Japan. I spent last weekend mainly researching other projects which have caught my attention. I wasnt making much progress with the Tangara texturing, so it was a welcome break. Above is a screenshot I grabbed a couple of weeks ago, and meant to post here at some point. Today is as good a day as any. Do yourself a favour and take a look. For now, the research and data is here,...

Wednesday, October 18, 2006. Digital TV is already digitally encoded (Duh! So the data stream is simply written directly to the disk. Ive been shopping, and will post more on that soon.
