Hey guys! Ride_Op is on vacation, so it fell to me to do the ScreenShotSaturday this week. Just an FYI, this is my first time managing SSS so I hope that I've done everything right. (sweat) If I have missed anything just let us know and we'll be sure to consider your shots for next week. For now It'...

We agree this is an issue that should be addressed. Fortunately there is a simple work around. The issue comes up when you use "Save As" to save a copy of one of the library objects. Because the library is a special folder structure with its own base directory it is not possible to use the interface...

The initial roll node, identified by the Green Cone, is indeed handled slightly differently than the other nodes on the track and may affect shaping if you place it indiscriminately in the middle of your layout. When you disconnect and reconnect track to fix an element, it's best to also disconnect ...

Originally posted by zacattack1104 ^^ hzgar, would you mind telling me what the orange thing on the back of the Invert is? I've seen it before and I have no clue what it is or how to implement it. I assume based on your comment that it's some sort of collision detector thing but... what? He's using...

alanr, I've pm'ed you on this. Please reply when you can. Thanks!

Originally posted by Turbo It simply does not do that in NL2 Phyter, I'll select a node then try to place another somewhere, but the depth does not set at all. When building my most recent ride it really killed the amount of time it took to support which was a bummer. Again, depth targeting for nod...

When you select a node it sets the depth of all additional nodes to follow. How is this different than NL1? Go through step by step what you're having trouble with so that I can better understand the difference you're experiencing.

Originally posted by Kyle Sloane But that's the thing. Each of a ferris wheels cars have their origins at the axis that they rotate, not at the center.While having the origins all around the rim works when exporting from lightwave, it doesn't for blender. If I apply the location, it sets the origin...

Hi guys. We are already well aware of this issue and a fix has already been produced for the next update. So no need to message us. Thanks!

You may be confusing Blender's unique method of exporting objects with world coordinates as a lack of "parenting". Blender is a bit weird. You need to apply the Transform and Rotation modifiers to each object to inherent the global world coordinate system before you export. Otherwise the objects wil...

Originally posted by Goku1910 My biggest want is 3D export so I can build "around" my rides. Also, an easier time dealing with the scale of objects. If I could just export the station building's dimensions and rails, I'd be satisfied. For the station's dimensions.. or the dimensions of anything.. c...

Thank you. I will check it out tonight and see if I cannot replicate that issue.

MY FAULT! :( I thought everything looked right when I tested it but apparently I did not look closely enough. I consulted with a much better programmer than myself and we came up with this. Change the offset in the parameters at the top of the script. import com.nolimitscoaster.*; import nlvm.math3d...

Please post your code and I will take a look. I am guessing that you have changed something else in the script because the solution is tested and working.

Interesting terrain bug you got there, Turbo. If you have any idea how to recreate that please let us know. Also if we can have access to your file some how it would be extremely helpful in figuring out what's going on. A stripped down version with just the terrain is likely all that we would need, ...

In the last line where it says "sco.setTranslation(posOut);", posOut contains the positional XYZ offsets for the scenery object. You can add to the Y component of posOut like this... posOut.y += 0.5f; sco.setTranslation(posOut); Play with the value to see what height works best. You can use negative...

Originally posted by alanr Can we attach lights to moving objects - such as cars? Lights are a property of scenery object (.nl2sco) files. Therefore lights can only be attached to scenery objects. But those objects can be attached to trains using a script. The following script will attach an object...

In order for a script to reference a track section, the section must be named. The track section name is set in the section properties in the editor. Double click on a station section and you'll see the "Name" property at the top. The name has to be the same as the one the script is expecting.

Pretty!

Originally posted by Angry_Gumball I've been messing with the lighting objects included with NL. I wanted to tweak the "Spot Light White" object so that I can have something a little more intense, and different colored lights. I'm a sucker for lighting and making things look dramatic at night.
