Go on to the website and read the documentation, there are plenty of examples and FAQ's plus the program is pretty self explanatory anyway.

theshipper and train-a-mania, do you want to have a wbesite for the pack, if so you can share the webspace owen gave me for the ttd set. I was thinking if you want, have a homepage with links to both and a seperate folder for each site once we have the content for one another.

Oh, that's okay. I thought you were.

so you know, james had a brake coach as well (seeing as the start date for james is probably between the level 1 and 2 coaches, a coach moving mail is a good thing!)

Maybe so, but I can only convert what people make MSTS models for.

I've decided to release a beta version of Edward and a GWR Coach.

They both have some difficulties, so please tell me what you think I should do.

Thanks.

Edward is fine apart from a graphics problem, allowing you to see the ground behind him.

My main problem is with the GWR coach. I feel it's too long to negotiate corners convincingly. Maybe you should shorten it a bit.

Apart from that, good work and can't wait to see the whole set!

I have that problem with all of the blue engines. My guess is that they match the backdrop color, so the program doesn't think of coding it.

Also, I don't know how to shorten the GWR coach. How can I do that?

An update:

Well, I have new versions of Thomas, Edward, Gordon, and Henry (thanks to Mstnoodle himself) so that the color problem won't happen again.

However, when I compared my models to the in-game ones, I realized that they were way too big! This means I now have to go back and redo all of the models.

I wish someone would've said this (besides chris lee, but he only mentioned one of the coaches).

That's all for now. I do have most of the models done, though I'll need to redo most of them.

EDIT: This should be the correct size.
