TransDEM Forum

Guess I overloaded TransDem or Trainz, TS12+SP1. I tried to create 98 3D UTM tiles for a huge route. There were no errors, except warnings that some of the UTM tiles had no raster files.
When I installed the route and UTM tiles, they never appeared on the route in Surveyor.
I believe you said in the ...

Is this the thin wireframe? Yes, that's the thin wireframe.

When I place the UTM tiles, I assume I simply select them from the scenery objects, and no matter where on the map my cursor is, the UTM should be automatically placed in the correct location? No, that's not the way it works.

All UTM ...

Is there any way I can tell by looking at the UTM tiles open for edit in CM 3.7 whether they're 2D or 3D? 2D tiles do not have the "corpus.tga" texture and .im files are only 2kB.
Will my raster maps from Google Earth work with 3D tiles, or do I have to use another source for these images ...

Thanks Phil;
I'll check that out. I had forgotten from way back when I used to work with UTM files that the KUID's might get mixed up.

Hi;
I just installed TransDem 2.5 x64.
I have a route with DEM, route, and Raster maps loaded.
I create the route with ground textures from Raster maps. This works fine, as it always has.
But when I attempt to create and export 3-D UTM tiles, I have trouble.
I am able to create and export most of ...

That's interesting. I thought the webcolors.cdp file was supplied by TransDem for creating ground textures from raster maps. I'll have to take a closer look at the textures to see if I can determine where they came from.

Thanks

After installing the WebColors.cdp, the texture WebRoyalBlue is faulty.
The error message given is:
Error: The tag 'normal-texture' in 'groundtexture' points to a nonexistent file: 'webRoyalBluenorm.texture'.

The cause of the error is that the normal-texture file is named webroyalblue_norm.texture ...
