German speaking members on my forum had some great ideas for improvements and made some really nice contributions like realistic smoke from Mike, new track textures from Mike and me, new skins for German rolling stock (which he will also send to BrainBombers) and a new standard bridge texture from Mike. Mike had also a great idea to make the standard bridge invisible and so to allow building individual bridges like the through girder bridge or the viaduct of any length. Brainbombers will make this even easier, adding a new bridge option. The new textures are already downloadable.
For my new light brown track and the even brighter newly ballasted track I’m working on, there will come a “mask” to make the turnouts more realistic and I’m adding the new options smoke, bridge and track to the soon coming new Layout Viewer version.
As apart from a handful of people there’s no feedback, absolutely no constructive input and no suggestions for improvements (for example like the above mentioned) on my English informations, I won’t waste my time any longer translating everything to English and publish it twice on both forums. I will reduce my informations here to the most important news. If there should anybody be interested, you can take a look at my forum and translate it by Google or Bablefish.
Sorry, but I’m tired making this huge work with English translations for (almost) nothing and want to use the time I gain much more useful, building new models and making other improvements for RTR.
Regards,
Willi
P.S. Many thanks to BrainBombers for all the great new features they have realised within a short time and that will come in RTR 1.4. together with Layout Viewer 2.0! At least one should say thanks to Brainbombers for all the fantastic work they do for us.
