pierreaf Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 Hello , small question for a beginner with the mission editor. I can place a train on the track and program it to go from one point to another, but the train does not appear. I must have made a mistake or it's a bug. I've searched the internet without success. any precious help would be welcome and thank you in advance. good flights to all! Pierre. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
razo+r Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 Did you also add carts and locomotives when you placed down the train? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Talvid Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 (edited) just wondering, are there any other tricks to getting trains to show up when placed in ME? Nevermind for now, because I found static train cars to place for a cargo lift mission I'm working on. Thanks for reading! Edited April 12 by Talvid VR rig - stinkin' cool!

Just place them down, add some carts, move the unit icon so it snaps to the railway and add a waypoint and it should be set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cannot see how they passed quality control and have been running around like this for so many years. I ended up building my own Locomotives and Rolling stock for Normandy 2. I used to post enthusiastic regular updates of my progress with lots of ideas about my 3d modelling progress train control and using a DML timetable schedule but interest was very limited and i felt like i was talking to myself so i pulled the plug on the project.

Hi, Thats exactly how I feel. Its a real pity you shelved the development....It would be really great to have Propper Locos and Rolling stock for Normandy.

Hawkeye60 Posted April 16 Share Posted April 16 @waterman I may have not made any comments, but I was following your progress with great interest. I am saddened you pulled the plug. Was looking forward to this add on. EightBalls trains never worked for me. I do not know why. And the DCS trains leave a lot to be desired. Would you consider re staring this project? I am willing to assist in any way I can My end goal, is a full set of WWII locos and cars. And a few armed trains for fun! What say you? I LOVE trains! I love shooting them even more! SuntSag created a few train strafing missions. I want WWII trains to shoot! Thanks for considering my request! Cheers! (Thanks Dad1 My train influencer!)

I preparest my aircraft to receive the Iron that will be delivered in the presence of my enemies. Thy ALCM and JDAM they comfort me. Power was given unto the aircrew to make peace upon the world by way of the sword. And when the call went out, Behold the "Sword of Stealth". And his name was Death. And Hell followed him. For the day of wrath has come and no mercy shall be given." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
