MSTS - CSX Western & Atlantic Route
Tunnel Hill, GA - Acworth, GA
My first route for a railroad simulation program was never finished, but there still seems to be a tiny bit of interest in it, so i've resurrected the download for it. This is the same version found in the MSTS file library.
MSTS - CSX Western & Atlantic Route, V2
MSTS - CSX Western & Atlantic Route, Expansion Pack 1

Railworks - Norfolk Southern Atlanta North District
V3 - Tiftonia to Hair

UPCOMING: I'm working another patch for the RW-AND route. It won't be much in the way of a route extension, but will repair some of the reported issues, as well as make a few changes along the right-of-way to reflect how the prototype has changed since the project begain. Release date TBA.
Along the same lines, you may have noticed that some of the items that were available in the download pane to the left have disappeared. These items are still available for use, but they are now packaged with the AND route. I'm thinking of packaging all SMMDigital assets in one package, along with the route, so you can get everything in one-stop, and it also makes it easier to make sure everyone has the same version of all assets.
WORK-IN-PROGRESS: Despite the lack of recent communication, the Locomotive Creation Tutorial is still on track (pun intended), although it is moving along very slowly. Creating textures is not a hard process, but is very time consuming. Don't expect the next section to be posted online until at least the first week of June.
Action on the Dalton Diamond
This webcam is positioned at the CSX/NS at-grade crossing in Dalton, Ga. Click on the "Play" button in the lower left corner of screen. Clicking the large one in the center pops out the main site.
For now, i've killed the annoying pop-up ads, but UStream may find a way to reinstate them at a later date. Enjoy!

Signal Creation Tutorial
Parts 1-4 of a signal creation tutorial for Railworks 3 is now available for users of 3D Canvas. This was written using 3DC version 8.xxx, but should be applicable to all version. Even if you are not into creating signals, the tutorial still provides useful tips for building assets for the simulator.
The 3DC files and Source files for this asset are also available for download on page one of the tutorial.
Locomotive Creation Tutorial

Part 4 of a multipart tutorial concerning building locomotive assets for Railworks is now on line. Creating a Cabview for your locomtive is the topic of this section.
