How to use Topo Maps in Trainz by colorado71 A. USING OF GLOBAL MAPPER 1. Configuration of Global Mapper Install Global Mapper on your computer. Download custom_shaders rar from http://trainz.uv.ro/tutorial/files/custom_shaders.rar Unpack the archive and copy the file custom_shaders.txt in the installation folder of Global Mapper. Run Global Mapper and select the option spectrum_trainz from "shader" bar on the program's tool bar. 2. Georeference your topo map Select the map (scanned map, satellite image, topo map etc.) you want to reproduce in trainz. You must know the geographical coordinates (latitude and longitude) of two points on it, so you can georeference it with Global Mapper. From the File Menu of Global Mapper select "Rectify (Georeference) Imagery" click OK and select your image. Open it and the dialog box "Image Rectifier" will appear. Zoom the image over the first point of which coordinates you know, select it, insert its latitudinal and longitudinal position as __/__/___ (for example 21/38/45) and press "add GCP to list." Proceed in the same manner with the second point. Save the image as GeoTIFF. 3. Select your future trainz map a) Open the map thus created with GlobalMapper. From the File Menu select "Export Raster and Elevation Data" - "Export GeoTIFF." In the dialog box which appear select "Export Bounds" and press "Draw a Box." Select the area of your future trainz map and save it as GeoTIFF. b) From the File Menu select "Download Online Imagery/Topo/Terrain Maps" (or simple open the DEM map for the area of your image map). Select the server from which you want to download the digital elevation map (http://seamless.usgs.gov/ or http://srtm.csi.cgiar.org/ for example) and then press OK. From the File Menu select "Export Raster and Elevation Data" - "Export DEM," then select "Export Bounds" in the dialog box, and finally, press "Reset to Last Exported Bounds." B. USING OF MICRODEM 1.

You don"t appear to be listening Lengo if I can say so without being rude.If you have a piece of track from A to B you need 1) a red trackmark at B to tell the AI driver where to drive to.Past the trackmark you need Buffers/Railends to define the physical limits of the track and reassure the driver it is safe to drive to Tackmark B.Between A and B you need at least 3 signals (any type) to let the driver know he can do more than 18 MPH.Less than 3 signals and he will stick to 18.An AI driver (like a real train driver) needs to know a) where the line ends b) what signalling system is in use c) where those signals are d) what the speed limit is.

OMAHA (April 2) - Preserving the environment for future generations, says Union Pacific, is a responsibility UP and its employees embrace. That explains, in part, why the company has been the leading innovator in developing hybrid locomotive technology, improving the fuel efficiency of its locomotives to the point where they can move one ton nearly 830 miles on a single gallon of diesel fuel. Employee programs contributed to saving 58 million gallons of diesel in 2008.

They do require a fair few dependencies and I have made a list of all JK items in my CM2. Not saying that is everything you require but from memeory it should be. Also there may be more here than necessary but ......
