Glt0145: /* Content Creation: Assets */

This page lists available "How To" Guides which describe how to achieve certain tasks in Trainz. <b>HowTo</b> pages provide much detail on specific actions, whereas <b>Help</b> pages are intended to respond to in-game needs for help or as quick guides to specific actions. Help pages specifically for '''Trainz Railroad Simulator 2019''' or '''TRS19''' can be found at '''[http://online.ts2009.com/mediaWiki/index.php/Category:TRS19 Help:TRS19]'''

Users are encouraged to add their own guides to this page in a similar fashion, or expand on existing guides. Please keep in mind that this site is dedicated to the current version of Trainz and that techniques used should relate to this version. Editors note: all pages here should fit the pattern "How to X", as in "How to place signals". Pages and topics which cannot be phrased in this manner do not belong on this page.

HowTo/Bogey/mesh-table

2022-02-15T09:15:24Z

Glt0145: /* mesh-table */

==mesh-table==

This tag is compulsory

The mesh-table is a container tag, meaning it is followed by curly brackets. The opening bracket should be on the next line for readability purposes. The closing bracket is best on the next line after the final entry. Again for readability purposes. It can have sub container tags. I will try and explain these. Clicking on each tag will take you to further information on that tag

For a scenery asset a mesh table may look like this.

mesh-table
{
[[/default/]]
{
[[/mesh/]] "bogey.trainzmesh"
[[/auto-create/]] 1
}
[[/shadow/]]
{
[[/mesh/]] "bogey_shadow.trainmesh"
}

A more complex example with LOD (level of detail) could look like this

mesh-table
{
lod-0
{
[[/mesh/]] "bogey_lod0.trainzmesh"
[[/auto-create/]] 1
}
lod-1
{
[[/mesh/]] "bogey_lod1.trainzmesh"
[[/auto-create/]] 1
}
}

Each of the level of detail is displayed the further away from the used the mesh is. When you add level of detail to a mesh several other tags are required.

They are :

[[/mesh-detail-level-count/]]

[[/mesh-table-lod-transition-distances/]]

Glt0145: /* Content Creation: Assets */

This page lists available "How To" Guides which describe how to achieve certain tasks in Trainz. <b>HowTo</b> pages provide much detail on specific actions, whereas <b>Help</b> pages are intended to respond to in-game needs for help or as quick guides to specific actions. Help pages specifically for '''Trainz Railroad Simulator 2019''' or '''TRS19''' can be found at '''[http://online.ts2009.com/mediaWiki/index.php/Category:TRS19 Help:TRS19]'''

Users are encouraged to add their own guides to this page in a similar fashion, or expand on existing guides. Please keep in mind that this site is dedicated to the current version of Trainz and that techniques used should relate to this version. Editors note: all pages here should fit the pattern "How to X", as in "How to place signals". Pages and topics which cannot be phrased in this manner do not belong on this page.

== follows-spline-gradient ==

'''This is a compulsory tag with the track container'''

follows-spline-gradient
If this boolean value is set "1", the mesh is deformed to smoothly follow the height-gradient of the spline. If set to "0", the mesh is instead deformed to follow the ground height along the centre-line of the spline ("adjust-cross-section-to-ground 1") or under each vertex ("adjust-cross-section-to-ground 0"). Certain in-game state, such as having set a height gradient onto the spline (yellow track vertices in Surveyor) or residing on a parent bridge spline, may override this option.

HowTo/Bridge/adjust-cross-section-to-ground

2022-02-10T00:04:26Z

Glt0145:

== adjust-cross-section-to-ground ==

'''This tag is compulsory with this track container'''

If this boolean value is set "1", the track mesh is distorted across its X axis to follow the ground plane upon which it rests. If set to "0" the mesh will assume the ground height from the center point. This setting has no effect on vertices which are within the adjust-height-to-ground-threshold range. Unless you had a special reason to set this value to "1" always set it to "0"

== adjust-cross-section-to-ground ==

'''This tag is compulsory with this track container'''

If this boolean value is set (1), the track mesh is distorted across its X axis to follow the ground plane upon which it rests. If clear (0) the mesh will assume the ground height from the center point. This setting has no effect on vertices which are within the adjust-height-to-ground-threshold range.

== mesh (terminator-shadow) ==
'''This tag is only compulsory if you have a terminator-shadow container.'''

When a "terminator-shadow" container is contained in the mesh-table for a bridge config file, it is the kuid/kuid2 for the ending mesh of the bridge. This is the shadow for the last section of the bridge that will be drawn Trainz surveyor.

The mesh-table a container tag, meaning it is followed by curly brackets. The opening bracket should be on the next line for readability purposes. The closing bracket is best on the next line after the final entry. Again for readability purposes. It can have many sub container tags. I will try and explain these. Clicking on each tag will take you to further information on that tag

A bride mesh-table is more complex than a normal scenery item. The asset can have three meshes a starting mesh, a middle mesh that is repeated as the asset is stretched in the surveyour and an end mesh that completes the bridge. The For a bridge asset a mesh table may look like this.

mesh-table {

[[/default/]]
{
[[/mesh default/ |mesh]] "hoted_bridge_1.im"
}

[[/initiator/]]
{
[[/mesh initiator/ |mesh]] "hoted_bridge_1_start\hoted_bridge_1_start.im"

Glt0145: /* mesh */

== mesh ==

'''This is a compulsory tag.'''

Data type is string so it needs to be surrounded by "".

This the name of the mesh that is being used within the asset. There maybe more than one mesh.

Trainz uses and can understand two mesh extensions either ".im" or ".trainzmesh". The second one is the current file extension to the mesh. It is created by trainz when an asset is imported into trainz.

If you have the ".lm" extension on the mesh name this point to a text file (LOD file). The mesh tag could also refer to the mesh itself i.e.. industry.im. If this were the case the asset would not have LOD mesh reduction.

So an ".im" or ".trainzmesh" extension is referencing the asset mesh directly where as the "".lm" extension refers to a LOD text file with the mesh information contained within that text file.

The ".lm" extension is mostly not used anymore and the LOD detains are contained within the main config file.

=== mesh subdirectories ===

Originally Trainz liked meshes that were not the main mesh to be in sub-directories. In recent editions and with the latest OS's all the mesh are now in one directory. This not a requirement and sub-directories can still be used, but the reference to the mesh must have the full location including the sub directory. Example maybe that the meshes are in a sub-directory call "meshes". So the reference to the mesh would be entered as "meshes\a_mesh.im" or "meshes\a_mesh.trainzmesh".
