My Train Track Add On For 0.2E

Recommended Posts

Oxy-host is a website host, but instead of using it for a website, I use it for my Anime Music Video downloads. That way I have direct links, instead of bouncing from one page to another trying to obtain the download.

The LOD is tricky, and its a little hard to keep in line, but hey, it works.

Oh and thnx Mike. ;)

Looks pretty good, to keep the train in a straight line you could have but small ridges either side of the tracks in the col file. Sort of kerb stone height, that way the train would be more likely to stay in line.

i thought about that, but then wouldnt random sparks just shoot of the sides?

Just tried your train track addon um it works but hurts my eyes and as you say very differcult to stay on. It sames as if when you think youve got the car and train lined up as you pickup speed its like bugger got to start again. Think i'll just wait until hv v0.3 for my tracks

if i remember, dk's tracks were self-centering ones.

If I remember correctly we had a small col at each side of the track to stop the train/delorean coming off.

just wide enough for the train? it didnt cause sparks to fly everywhere?

It caused a lot of problems. if the train hit either side it would fly off the tracks. But that's if you were pushing the delorean.

Isn't it possible to make a path for it? Like when you start "pushing" DeLorean, the game takes the lead and does the steering

yeah, it seems like a tough nut to crack without coding :P

Enter the wonderful world of modding, marti.

The way i got it to look so good in my vids is, connect the del, and get out and into the train. make sure the del is still connected, and switch to the inside view. then start from far behind the tracks, line it up as best you can and gun it. it gets harder to control the faster it goes, but u'll nail it eventually.

my other idea was like to set a waypoint for the train to push the del to, and just place that waypoint at the end of the track.

It must be an LOD thing. i could try setting it lower and see if it helps.

ok, it doesnt. i'm just gonna extend the model. ;) should work n/p.
