Oh dear! That's yet again way too much 3D modelling for me, all that stuff up-in-the vertical is too high for me!! Nice bit of railway though! -

The Dutch people do still remember WWII, and still do actively thank and respect all service men involved in liberating the country ... But this is something really special, read about it here: The Sunset March

Actually, no. But, there's is a story to its name, and it's kinda related to the bridge. The name is 'De Leugenbanke' which kinda translates in to the "bench of lies" (?) There used to be a small building there, open at the front, with benches in it. Older people - all men for sure - would gather there, and talk shop. And all kinds of big stories, like the ones fisher men talk of, the size of the fish they got on their lines... Next bit done, the fixed part, where the lifting part will be connected. Now as you can tell, I apparently have decided what water level to go for. It was determined by me coming across the four creatures in the second picture. They should be on grass, so I need to have a green bank, so I cannot go for a high water level. Decision making can be so simple ... -

wow... the raindrops on the cockpit glass when stationary is very cool, looking great! (Would like to know how it sounds with the engine off... ) But while flying, I think the streaming stuff over the glass will quickly become annoying ... Not to rain on their parade, but there's realism and there's ... well, you do not want to spend that much on a great graphics card and monitor, to have the beautiful view to the outside messed up like that! -

Oh, sure. The bridge is no longer there now A few years ago, they've created a small pier where the bridge used to be, in a similar shape and style. It's in use by the small ferry, you can it in the picture, the small white one on the other side of the river, a bit to the left. Here's where it docks, and you can see they've used ships again: What is extra special, is that this bridge used to end up exactly and spot on where my pub is. (Even came across some plan by the city council, dated around 1870-ish, to demolish the building the pub is in, and create a passage straight from the bridge's end into the city centre.) It's the grey-ish building in between the white house and the brick like tower in the first picture here. -

Nick, I get the same issue, or a similar one. This shows up in the 'Unread Content': When I click it, this happens: The link at the top is this http://dangerdogz.com/forums/topic/12942-skins-for-event/ I've been looking around, and I've seen that I can change a lot of settings ... but none that make sense regarding fixing this issue. Looks like the automatically generated announcement when one uploads a file to the vault gets put in an area where most of us have no access to. So, either switching off the generation of that announcement or granting access to that part of the forums would be a good work around / solution... But I dunno ... really. Haven't even dared to press the 'Get Support' button, scared as shift I might wake up Rog

Same here Gec. Have seen that before, I did not really care about it much Will look into it... I may be able to fix it, or maybe make it disappear all together ... who needs propaganda anyways?

Well, not much to tell there, we never found him, but we managed to quickly find a döppelgänger in the local old folks home, and sent him back to the Vatican ... -

Line up of all nine ships. The longer deck created, and mounted is a test fit. And hey, it all fits, and lines up! So, next up is creating over 70 cm's of railings... Here's a shot of the set up I created for transforming them bamboo cocktail pickers into planks for the deck. On the left, coffee! Below that, the remnants of the pickers, the curly bit I cannot use. Then there's the small container holding the end product. Above it the raw materials. Then there's the cutting device, with some extra tool so I can cut the things at a constant length. As each picker has a pointy end, that needs to be cut off. And when I do that, the small cut off bit just flies off, up up and away! The box to the right will catch some of them -

The Pope did visit the area, in a boat. It sank. -

tHER` Well, there will be some, in the end, on the bridge, once it's done and ready and has reached the 'diorama' stage
