Hmm, I've tried on both Firefox and IE 8, both seem to work for me. So perhaps it is on your end?

heres what i get...

"You do not have the necessary privileges to access this file. This may be because you are not logged into your humyo account.

Make sure you are logged into the correct humyo account or contact the file's owner and request that they share this file with you. "

Now, the funny thing is, theres a place for me to log out, but nowhere to log in, so i take it that means i'm logged in. Its a Mystery to me..

Hi, DEM is the terrain data, in case you didn't know. The DEM is included, all you need to do is put it into the base RW folder and press "t" once your route is set up.

As I have never used the "T" option in RW and used ReDem, am I correct in saying you have to "T" each tile if more than one tile.....?

Edit: Sorry Pam...I should have been more explicate in my query with the addition of the bit in red.

8i dont know.. It did appear that i could only see one tile when i loaded it up. Maybe i need to head west and just keep pressing T ????

No worries.. i was off pressing T ::lol:: Yes, you have to press T for each tile as you load it in.. considering that the overall length of the land i'm going to be doing is over a hundred miles east to west and god knows how many miles north and south, i think i'm going to ffocus on completing the marker file in google. At least for this route.. Oh.. just an aside thats kinda funny.. Railworks created a tile with a swiss cheese type hole in it and i didnt notice till i fell in :;lol:;... Oh well..

This is due to the .hgt data, which that's pretty much the best you can get for now.

::chuckles:: I fell asleep making markers last night.. 240 of them just to get from one side of reno to the other. ReDem uses them to set the North and south tiling boundaries. I figure one i have yhe markers i can generate a new file of the complete landscape and copy it over the existing one. it'll make it a whole lot easier for me all around..
