I know it's been asked many times, but Ive never paid attention. Is there really an honest way to remove train sounds from lights?

By dishonest, do you mean the fixall pod?

Also, some new discoveries here

hmmm, didn't know Fixall.pod did that, LOL..Thanks Phin.

I don't know if this will be of interest to you, but we've assembled an updated fixall that pretty much triples the number of fixes.

The list of fixes is long but there's a few details here.

another question...Why can't moving objects be moved up or down? No matter how high it is in Traxx, it is always ground level ingame.

you first need to raise the model in binedit...

open the model in binedit, then click the 'model' drop down menu then 'translate', enter a desired Y altitude, then save... reload the model in traxx.

note: if you raise the model too high all you need to do is enter a negative number (eg -5) to bring it back down.

Im actually referring to the lights...the lights seem to be a set position on the model, and I can never get the light as high as I want

It's tricky. See the readme docs in this

ok thanks guys, got the light where I want it...but can I adjust how far the beam reachs? It reaches way shorter than I need it to.

It's all hard coded into the game ... at least nobody has found a workaround yet <font size=+1 face=Wingdings>L</font>

Once again, the saga continues. Im trying to light up a stadium, but I obviously cannot use direct light beams from the stadium lights. So I have been trying to have them above ground, or below ground..appearing that it is being lit up..just with no seeable beams. It looks perfect, just that you run into the invisible models. Any possible way at all to make a moving object no collide? This is the last idea I have, unless someone else has one.

In alpine's certifiably crazy he and zoon used normal light models that sunk into the ground. They lit up a big area and made things quite bright. There's a part that sticks up but if you move it near the edge of the stadium you should be able to make the collidable part so it's outside the driving area. If you want ceiling lights, that's something I'd have to experiment with. I haven't raised them that high before, but basically I just try to extend the same ideas used for the street lights I pointed you to.
