  I'm trying to make a c151 using Google Sketchup, so i hope it will be released between Sep 10 to Dec 10. Thank You for your support!

  Why is that for, when Willis had created a working C151? Please wait until 2010 Apr 21 for a better train. It will be faster than you develop it. Developing a train needs knowledge of ATS / ATC, motor details, how to make the sound etc, which I do not see any relvanecy to Google Sketchup.

  I didn't know that you can make a train for BVE using Google Sketchup, but I think this is under the wrong forum.

  He meant that Google Sketchup is not related to BVE.

  Are you intending to make it a openBVE exrerior, or just another object?

  He meant, an exterior case, which can be used as a train (Used to drive it actually, which there are many aspect that Google Sketchup does not do such as motor sounds etc), or another still object, that can let the route developers put it, and assume that is another train on other platforms, in order to look real (How can an entire stretch route, got only 1 train, the frequency sure sucks).

  By using the .route interval command thingy which adds the number of trains driving infront/behind of you.

  Wow, did not aware of that. But, it sucks in the sense of only rail 0 is used, because, I wont want to see a train from Queenstown and proceed to overrun, and drop from vaiducts. (Based on Veyron's EWL EB) And it is not possible for the train in OpenBVE to smartly go a bit further, and crossover to the other platform (Real world Queenstown got one, but not the current openBVE EB)

  Excessive use of that command = long loading times.

  Is there any ratio for that?

   

  Eg: A less than 10km route, use 10 such command before & after = long loading times

   

  How about a full 42 km route, and use 10 such commands before & after? Will it make any difference?

  4 trains (including the player's train) is already laggy enough, furthermore, by using more than 2 trains, HHPSDs don't work. (Based on what I've tried on the NSL route)

  Sorry, we are not jeering. We would just like to know how useful it is. Is it an object or another train for players to play?

  Missing image. You need to upload to a host (like tinypic.com) then use the direct link and put it in the post.

  Nice! The problem is getting it out of SketchUp and into open/BVE. I have heard of SketchUp exporting into Blender, then out into BVE TS. However, I do not know the details.

  The exterior of front and back looks nice, and I know that you aimed for the release in the end of 2010 if ever possible, but is there any updates on it?
