Oh were to start? 1st a few days ago I seen some screen shots of someone’s route, and it was fantastic! One of them is even my wallpaper! (for inspiration). Anyway, I started on my 2nd attempt at a route just yesterday(06-29-01). The track is 90% done. the terrain, maybe 30%, and just have a few buildings down to see how its gonna look. That’s gonna be the tuff part, getting your towns all done, placing all the buildings and all the roads just right. This Route is not tested yet! I’m going to wait till its done, or almost done, LOL. So its only going to be Editor Screen Shots till I test it.

Its Definitely going to be a Mountain Route! (Just look). As I’ve really only played Marais Pass (not much into Passanger or Steam, except maybe the Big Boy (someone make that one!!!)). I already have 3 Yards and I may add 1 more. Each Yard should be able to hold 20 to 50 cars each. I also have a few more spots open for Bridges that need to be placed. As I’m getting the hang of it.

And here’s HOW: First, what ever you do, Don’t Move or Rotate anything with the Mouse! Use the Keypad Arrows. Let me explain. When Moving objects, you can use the left and right arrows to move left and right, but to move forward or backwards, You need to use the Ctrl key in combination with the up and down arrows, plus you can use the Ctrl key with the left and right too, but it works the same with or without Ctrl key. And to move the object up (higher) or down (lower), just use the up and down arrow alone. With this I can place object right were I need them. Ofcoarse after I rotate it at the right angle.

I put these 3 shot up now, cause I want to show you an comparision in a day or so of how it’s changed. I know I’m a teaser! Plus maybe a few more areas. And Yes, their is track on that Bridge in the bottom picture!
