(RELEASED) Official Development thread for the R46 for OpenBVE

[Gong Gahou]

Nice to see the rollsigns roll to the very beginning after it reaches the end. It's like having an endless amount of the same mylar prints!

My only suggestion to the rollsign is to add one or more white panels to the beginning and the end of the sequence.

The exterior is absolutely fantastic. Well done.

You mean like this? (this is just for show and tell)



Anyways, back to the R46..



That rain you see is from the route itself.










Some teasers on the LCD signs, all readings from an official source with the list of programs for the R46 luminators.... (actual animation speed is slower than it appears on the GIF images):

That R44 look nice. Nice job

[Failsafe]

Nice Job Man, Keep Up The Good Work. Anything i can do to help?

[Pegasusleos4]

Really nice job, it look close to the real one. Speechless, and can't wait

Just a question...Would it be possible to apply a shadow effect underneath the train so that it looks more realistic? Such as, a dark translucent block coded into the undercarriage area. After closely looking at the screenshots I realized that the components of the undercarriage are perfect, but it looks unrealistic because of the lack of a shadow.

Is there a way to code it so the BVE's rain doesn't go through the car's roof?

I believe the guy who is developing the new Birmingham Cross-City South route has a method of creating animated rain that doesn't go through the train. Still trying to figure out how he did that

I know it is highly unlikely but will the signs have all the 1245 possible codes that the real one has?

For the release version, the ones with the normal route readings will be set by default.

The other combinations will be available as an optional DLC (downloadable content) soon, where i will provide instructions on how to install the other readings.

Here's a doc with all the codes and numbers.

Due to the amount of codes it would take a while to scroll through all of them and even longer to load all of them. I'd like to see it a reality but previous trains have had problems with loading times of signs . And these are animated.

All one would need to do is add the ones they want to use on their own via provided instructions.

Oh I understand now. You're gonna put all of them in but have the person select which ones to install.
