This is really a very good scenario and similar you have created. Congratulations, Jake!

Ray, did you install the ORBX cultivation?

You actually mean Collombey, see my picture above.

In that case, you have to rename the interfering tile.

a. In ...\SteamApps\common\Aerofly FS 2 Flight Simulator AddOns\scenery\orbx_switzerland_cultivation\places\wood_walls rename area45.tsc to area45.off

b. In ...\SteamApps\common\Aerofly FS 2 Flight Simulator AddOns\scenery\orbx_switzerland_cultivation\places\wood_hangars rename area45_hangars.tsc to area45_hangars.off

I will publish the scenery in the next days.

Hello Stu,

can you please implement an optional random factor for object orientation?

My rosted tanks look a little bit boring, if they are all orientated the same way.

TomSimMuc · 2019-03-24T07:01:28+01:00

Thank you Jake.

However the trees are a fixed component from the IPACS Swiss DLC.

I am currently working on the refinery in Collombey and will publish it in a package with Neochatel.

TomSimMuc · Saturday, 1:59 pm

Hi Rodeo,

many thanks for your cars. I will try tem this evening.

I think Krzysk has done a good job in sources documentation of the swiss tower pack.

Therefor I decided, to do it the same way (see my readme in my beta).

Quote from Rodeo

I just have to recompile them since I missed the offset.

This would be very nice, Rodeo.

Please orient them as:

(N-S orientation)

Offset for cars, left lane: 0.9m

Offset for trucks, right lane: -0.8m

so all PKW will drive on the left lane and all trucks on the right (not nice, but reallity here )

Can you add the 3d warehouse links each please, so we can officially distribute them ?

TomSimMuc · Thursday, 9:58 am

Thank you Ken for your smoke.

I could make it a bit less opaque in the material settings.

TomSimMuc · Wednesday, 7:28 pm

I am working on a new version of the refinery, which does not use copyrightet ORBX models.

TomSimMuc · Wednesday, 7:25 pm

Can you help me with fake steam (Sketchup if possible)?

TomSimMuc · Tuesday, 9:01 pm

Thank you very much Jeff.

I am already successful testing. Very nice and impressive - a whole new world.

Your cars are really detailed:

I am a scenery cultivator and very much interested in how you did this.

As the models are very important:

Can you share your cars with us?

Cheers,

Thomas

Quote from kenventions

- run scenProc for all red lights with a 30-sec "on" time and a random delay generated for each one (10sec, 20sec, or 30sec)

Could you post your ScenProc script, after you found out the details?

Cheers,

Thomas

Hello Ken,

an interesting idea.

As far as I know, lights can only be defined in a TOC file.

If Stu likes the idea, he could create a toc together with the tsc file (and include the toc call).

I played a bit with traffic lights, with the aim to have an automatic switching between green - yello - red.

With the below lines I managed to get a 22 sec green, 2 sec yellow and 22 sec red phase. The disadvantge is, that scenproc then only generates the same signal colors for the whole city. And random color is not possible; otherwise the signals would not sequence the colors.

# Traffic signals

CreateAF2Light|highway="traffic_signals"|1.0;0.0;0.0|5|0.15;0;6|5

CreateAF2Light|highway="traffic_signals"|0.0;1.0;0.0|5|0.15;3;6|5

But with Stu's program he maybe could assign the following:

All streets in E-W direction which have the attribut highway="traffic_signal" get this light:

Code

<[light][element][4333]
<[vector3_float64][position][7.581755 52.272758 5.000000]>
<[vector3_float32][color][1.000000 0.000000 0.000000]>

<[vector4_float32][flashing][0.150000 0.000000 6.000000 0]>

<[vector4_float32][flashing][0.150000 3.000000 6.000000 0]>

and all streets in N-S direction which have the attribut "traffic_signal" get that light:

Code

<[light][element][4330]
<[vector3_float64][position][7.591755 52.292758 5.000000]>

Optionally the toc generation could also take care of lights assigned to a model:

high chimneys, wind generators, railroad crossings and signals ...

What do you and Stu think?

Autogen Ships:

The script looks for the key="seamark:type" value="distance_mark" to position a ship.

I converted the ship models with a 50% ratio to run into the opposite direction.

Thanks Stu for the receipe!

Is there maybe a bug in the derivedWayLenght calculation?

When derivedWayLenght is the only selection, then the final multiplication with the RoundTo value does not seem to happen.

In combination with derivedDiameter however it does. From the tst.tsc:

Code

#------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# wayId=-365118 building:yes man_made:storage_tank test:case:#0.3.1.2 oneObject with derived diameter tag #:derivedWayLength:57 #:derivedDiameter:20

Hi Stu,

again a big step forward with the time scale variation in wind parks.

Do I have to understand the Round parameter in the way, that i.e. waylength is devided by the round faktor?

Then you compare the result against the mapEntry value?

Also very nice, the 3D-Digits in the testfile.

Can you tell me how you generated the digit models?

by the way, these two are incidentially swapped:

superb view:

For those interested:

I converted the user guide into a md and html format.

PS: for me the test.bat only works, if the content is modified to:

ObjectGen.exe test.osm test.XML
