Airports and airtraffc

[5292nate]

Hey guys. Are there any airport runway models for RW? That would be a must have. The route I am designing, goes past at least 3 or 4 airports, and I would like to have a realistic looking airport, with animated moving airplanes. (I think Ian did this with his Seattle sub, but I am not sure.) I need something that I can re-distribute for free, if possible.

Thanks guys!

Ian has one, but it would be another payware thingy I bet.

This route is a must have. The BNSF Seattle Subdivision mainline runs for a few miles along a major airport.
Lots of jets and hangers. Only wish I could hear the jets flying overhead.

If they are set up on Vehicle paths, one could have each vehicle have a "jet sound".

they are but i couldnt get sound to work. but I think I figured it out since I can obviously get locos with sound to work. so it will be available with the final release or maybe i'll get it out in a mini update. we'll see ;)

What about randomized and animated marine traffic? I don't suppose we could convince Ian to release a couple of has assets in the rough price range as an MP3 download?

You realize that we already have a bunch of freeware boats around. All you need to do is add them to a traffic ribbon.

[5292nate]

No. I did not know about the boats. But thanks for the info! Can you do a traffic ribbon with planes?

[PapaXpress]

You can do traffic ribbons with houses and trees if you like

Its essentially a child object to the ribbon.

[NDORFN]

Sound is easy to set up for traffic ribbons too.

[5292nate]

Saweet! IS there any short-cut to getting a traffic ribbon to follow a road network?

[NDORFN]

Make sure your road is a continuous ribbon up to 1000m (no nodes) and use the offset tool. I offset by 0.1

[PapaXpress]

Search my blog (I am on my phone right now) loft for your children ... or something like that. It will walk you through how to offset assets.
