TRAINZ 2019 Route Building Part 3 Clinchfield Route
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 11 ก.ย. 2024
- In this video I am presenting another Trainz Tutorial on how I used a simple module to test building the Clinchfield Railroad route from Elkhorn City to Johnson City. .
This episode includes starting from Scratch with a small segment of the track just north of Elkhorn City. The full Clinchfield route will be available in TRS2019 only, and will be using a complete DEM and Open Street Maps along with Transdem Trainz Version to ensure the route is as accurate and genuine as possible, within the limits of TRS2019 when it is released.
The route in its final form will include over 95 miles of mainline track as well as many branches including the Moss Turn, Haysi Railroad and Nora Spur to mention a few. . It can also be used to help you work faster and more efficient when developing your own routes, or enhancing other routes you may have.

I hope this helps new TRS2019 early access users as well as those wanting a better understanding of route development in TRS2019 train simulator, including a full demonstration how I have developed this module/route so far . . . . including track tools, content manager, Pick Lists and signaling.
This is the third episode in a full series of TRS2019 tutorials covering all aspects of developing a TRS2019 modular route, with more to come including session building, scenery development, track tools, surveyor skills, signaling systems, and more . . . . learn all about Trainz TRS2019 here.

Thanks for your kind words
nice to see someone working on the Clinchfield again... I first became aware of this line when MRR released there 6 by 13 portable layout of the line.
Thanks Jesses, I hope I can get it finished within the time I have allotted . . . . . . I will be doing regular updates to keep watching as I progress . . . . . . . I will be doing a video on best ways to research details . . . . . ..
i take pride in the guys like you that can build routes t have done some but never happy with them a mate of mine spent 10 yrs building his route of the MKT exact line the amount of work it takes is incredible good on ya mate awesome job
Thanks for your kind words, sadly I have been overseas for work and could not continue the route you had interest in, sorry.
The good news is that I am back in September and should be able to start video support again, but as I am on TRS22 now the old routes do not translate too well and I am starting again. Should have a sample of a new route shortly.
@@colinstrains5885 that will be cool
Love the work Colin, I have worked on routs from 2004 thru 2019 in TRS its a good piece of software, its come a long way. Approach Medium does truly great work.
keep up the great work!
Thank You for you encouragement
Your videos are really nice to watch! Excellent work!
Thanks for the compliment . . . I checked out your channel . . . . . . you cover a lot of territory with the 500+ videos you have . . . . . . . .. impressive . . . .
I know. And thanks for checking my channel out!
Another great video Colin. I am learning so much by watching your videos. I look forward to more of your future videos.
Hi Colin, working my way through your videos! Did enjoy your joke about tunnel openings ...... yes can see how things like that would be very frustrating and need a rest afterwards! Found the same thing when practising inserting a bridge abutment from a previous video of yours...... like the fine tune up and down tip - thanks, I need to also find the same thing for left and right - would make things a bit easier. NOW looking at your work and supplied routes in TRS19 and previous in a new light and appreciation of the TIME it must have taken to produce. AND from the video I see it looks like you have time to paint!? Thanks again and cheers, Stuart
I apologise for the long break . . .I had two updates in a row for my Video Editor . . each introduced a bug that stopped me rendering my videos . . . . Now fixed and I have just uploaded this one . . . . . . another to go tomorrow . . . . . a tool tutorial . . . . . . . thanks for your patience . . . . .
Glad to see that I am not the only one who has had issues with video editing software....although I think I use a different program than you do. Ended up having to do an "upgrade" that I really didn't want to do.
@@NJP76 G'day mate . . . . . . . . . The fault was not exactly with the software in a way . . . . . . The first delay was a bug . . . .. . . but was partly because I use OBS for screen capture . . . . . . . . . that was fixed by the vendor fairly quickly . . . . . . .. . . the second one . . . took several weeks to diagnose it . . . . . . . . and ended up a default bitrate setting in the software had been changed and conflicted with OBS causing a pulsing effect on all moving objects . . . . . . . . . once known it was a five second effort to change the bit rate . . . . . . .. lost some of my hair on that one . . . . . .. . . but I can say the support given by the support person was fantastic . . .and he displayed much patience . . . . . and perseverance . . . . . .. . The editor I use ? . . . . . . . . .. . . Davinci Resolve 15 Studio . . . . . . . . . . . . . I would never use anything else now . . . . . . . . . . .
@@colinstrains5885 Hi Colin I noticed you added two boards and then deleted the original. Do you realise that if you select 5m grid and click on a 10m board it will change to 5m, the same applies from 5m to 10m.
@@stagecoach52 yes Keith . . you are right . . and 9 times out of 10 it works . . but sometimes things go wrong and you can loose the entire content of the board . . so while in the example I cited it would have been OK . . I consider it a risky habit . . so i don't usually do it . . I have queried this with other experts . . .and they all agree it is risky . . . . .and no one knows why or what causes the loss . . . .
I’m new to Trainz and TRS19. Your expertise is such a help! Thanks
Welcome to the world of Trainz . . . . . . . there are quite a few TH-camrs who have Trainz Content in their channel . . . . . . . . so I hope you can learn what you need to fully enjoy the Trainz experience. The forum is also very helpful . . .check it out !
Yes, I've been taking advantage of all the friendly know-how and expertise on the forums. Very nice and helpful community! Do you upload to DLS? Thanks Colin.
@@gschneck260 I have several modules and a switching route under way . . . . and which will be uploaded to the DLC . . .but until TRS2019 is stable . . I am having to hold off until then
Colin - just want to mention, no need to delete the 10m board, simply click on it once you've selected the 5m option, and it will be changed to a 5m grid.
Thanks Bruce . . . . . . . . I did not know that . . .is it the same when the board has been occupied with content ?
@@colinstrains5885 Yes, but if you've applied textures already it can "blur" them in some cases, so have a good look afterwords. My personal preference is always 5m boards. I agree though, no need for 5m far from track.
Good work Colin! just a question, do you use a software for adding automatically the mountains and hills with elevation data to surveyor?
Yes . . . for prototypical routes like The Clinchfield route I am working on . . I use the Transdem utility . . which gives an easy interface to TRS2019 . . . . . . ..
Thank You!
Colin - are you using just PBR textures now, or mixing with old? I don't like the way they blend at all, and there is a lack of PBR textures right now. Hopefully more are released.
I have mixed them in this video . . .but carefully . . . . . . . against procedural track use PBR only . . . . . .. things like tunnel portals . . use non-PBR . . .and so on . . you need to test it with each type of texture . . . . . . . . . trial and error . . . . . . .and some PBR . . like the ones marked Donner . . .are very unpredictable . . and not so great textures anyway . . . . . trouble most models don't have PBR so cannot use PBR where they mix with objects like houses bridges fences etc . . . hope that helps. . . .. . .
that my home town
Hello Brady . . which one on the Clinchfield route is your home town ?
@@colinstrains5885 elkhorn
as well you forgot to represent Elkhorn creek and their is a couple other issues scattered around
Hi Brady, there is nothing like first hand knowledge . . I used Google Earth to get as close as I could to the real layout . . . Can you give me a clue where Elkhorn Creek is ? Note the Elkhorn City area is nowhere near complete . . I have some idea what the town looked like but will have to put facsimile shops and houses into it as modelling everything is just too much and at the distance away from the tracks is probably not a problem. I think I have the basic street layout about right.
@@colinstrains5885 if you want i can show you on discord
@@colinstrains5885 if thats ok
@@colinstrains5885 but your street layout is about right
@@bradycure5786 Hi Brady, I looked up Elkhorn Creek . . . . . . . on Google Earth . . it seems to run 1 to 1.5 miles west from Russell Fork along big branch road and would not be visible from the track at the old station site nor from the Wye in Elkhorn City yard . . . . . . . . . probably not a required location in Trainz as it would not be visible anyway . . . To get good performance with Trainz . . anything not clearly visible is usually excluded . . .I did include the start of the creek where it joins the Russel Fork though
I dont understand why your map is completely without grass, bushes and stuff like that, because in TRS18 is tool called Nvidia turf effects. Maybe your PC cant handle it?
Hello Roman . . . this particular tutorial did not cover Turf effects . . and was done when TRS2019 was in early beta . . .and Turf effects were poorly documented and buggy . . . . . . I hope this explains why no TurfFX . . . . .. My PC is top of the line TurfFX had no bad effects on it . . . .. . . Thanks for your input
