{OUTDATED} Trainz Tutorial: How to Import Google Earth Images into Trainz and How to use

[@MichiganRailProductions]

Finally! I was waiting for a tutorial on this! I may have to absolutely redo my Great Lakes Central Northern Division, but oh well!

[@Flamerailzzz]

Lol, glad I could help :)

[@TexasRailfan21-RailfanRyan]

2:45 How do you get the map options on the toolbar???

[@Flamerailzzz]

Should be a Button or something. Looks like a Box with sections or check the settings

[@nickstransportvlogs]

Is the SD70ACE jointed rail?

[@Flamerailzzz]

nicktrainfan1550 The Railfan yeah

[@nickstransportvlogs]

Flamerailzzz But it’s Payware, and I wish I could buy it, but i don’t wanna waste my money so, sad face ☹️.

[@Flamerailzzz]

nicktrainfan1550 The Railfan Not Really a waste. The only thing is It doesn’t have a custom cab. You’d need to install one from the DLS and Put it on the Locomotive. Other than that, it’s a Great model as you’ve probably seen in my other videos.

[@nickstransportvlogs]

@@Flamerailzzz The horn looks BADASS!

[@azumi-osaki]

May I ask... how to add consecutive pictures using basemapz as you do ? If I look your "Objects > Move object" you have a lot of "Basemap NS00-EW00". When I do that, trainz ask me to overwrite it and I lose my picture 1 "(¬ . ¬)" Thank you

[@Flamerailzzz]

大崎梓美 please check out the newer version this video is obsolete

[@vermilionrailfan5651]

Havent watched it yet, but I hope this is the video Ive been waiting for

[@Flamerailzzz]

What would that be my friend?

[@vermilionrailfan5651]

any video that puts me 1 step closer to being able to build the NS Chicago line...this helped

[@Flamerailzzz]

Glad I could help. :)

[@delawarecountyrailfan2204]

Did you say... Chicago Line? Finally, someone is working on the Chicago line!

[@vermilionrailfan5651]

J jj Imma try from Chicago Ill to Cleveland OH

[@aprintojoss8079]

I want to build route with real scale (1:1) on T.ANE. I had capture google earth with 100m scales view. What number should I fill at scale, x-dim and y-dim? I capture about 1km x 1km area at GE I want distance at GE is same as at T.ANE...

[@Flamerailzzz]

Aprinto Jos S What I would do is set it to 72x72 in basemaps application. (Or whatever value will fit Your photograph. ) I recommend 72x72 to start with only because I as well was using 1:1 Real scale as you see in the video and it Simultaneously fit the grids and matched the size of the assets in game.

[@Chasingrail]

My basemap seems washed out and isn’t the right size, even though I set everything to what you did

[@XBGamerX20]

yeah but if it has terrain around, this is basically useless, especially if were dealing with sharp mountains and stuff. we need the specific section on the terrain itself and then paint anything else if we want

[@paulpaisanu3524]

Basemapz link is not working :(

[@x-on1417]

What's the music????

[@deeshrier7444]

Is there a chance you could either lower the volume of the background music or not have background at all? I have a hearing problem with separating foreground from background sounds (the sins of my youth catching up with me from my garage band days) and it's really hard to follow your voice. I tried the CC option and that helps a little. I just thought I'd politely ask. Other than that, this is an outstanding video on a topic I'm having problems with. And I did subscribe (#260)

[@imeric3026]

So the picture says 200ft and the program says 72ft. How does this work? You have like 1000 ft there

[@omelnor3269]

Is this mobile method available?

[@WisconsinSirens]

I'm your 300 sub :D Thanks by the way

[@superflashlightrailproduct1355]

How did you shape out the map?

[@Flamerailzzz]

Super Flashlight Rail Productions There’s no shaping. It’s literally like a screenshot and importing it into Basemaps . The Demensions are Set to 1:1( Real Scale) and 72x72 for the dimensions. Fitting the purple box.

[@SlovakianLynx]

I've wanted to try to make a real route, so I gave this program a try. At first it work fine and I've created 4 basemaps and started working on my map. When I finished work based on these basemaps, which tooked about a month, I wanted to make more base maps, but this program started freezing on me every time I clicked on generate basemaps. I've tryed solving it with changing compatibility, reinstalling and removing it from registry, trying different types and dimensions of images, but nothing helped. Any idea how can I fix this?? It is really frustrating.

[@Flamerailzzz]

No clue right off the top. I can do some research for you and see what I can do.

[@SlovakianLynx]

Don't worry about it. I have found another way.

I did download the Microsoft .net framework 3.5 service pack 1 nothing came up on it.

[@Flamerailzzz]

Ok then, sorry for the unnecessary disk space. Was everything else ok?

[@paxcreems5908]

Hello I can not install Basemaps because it requires .NET Framework 3.5 but it is already on my PC in version 4.5. Someone can help me ?

[@Flamerailzzz]

MaxCreep's62 Have you already tried to install 3.5 ? The program might only be compatible for 3.5 .

[@paxcreems5908]

I found the solution on the internet, now I can build what I always wanted to build! Thanks !

[@jarroddark8560]

yes everything good my friend. what do I do with the net framework?

[@Flamerailzzz]

You can uninstall it.

[@zeleznicnicuba9229]

hello is this working in Trainz 2004?

[@Flamerailzzz]

Supercat00992 I am not sure. You can give it a try.

never mind

[@jarroddark8560]

hi flamerailzzz do you have to get Microsoft .net framework 3.5 service pack 1 for it to work?

[@Flamerailzzz]

It's pretty vague in my memory ,but I think so.

[@Chasingrail]

Thanks! this really helped! Just a few questions. what do you set the size of the map to... when i put it down, it covers the whole baseboard and is stretched out (so it is bigger than it would really be). maybe it is because of being stretched out, but it is super bright... do you why? it is kinda high above the ground soi cant see the textures i put down, or all of the road (the shoulders are below the map) or the track (part of it is below the map) any ideas?

[@rubik777]

background music also other noise!

[@Flamerailzzz]

Rubik Please watch the newer video

[@parrotyee]

I did it your way, but the first station is supposed to be 150m long, in-game tools measure it as 100m long.

[@XBGamerX20]

the game tools are not accurate cause i indeed made many errors when i had to compare real life terrain at least for the old trainz. idk for the new one, but using those measuring tools in the game are only good when youre doing solo/fictional projects otherwise its a pain

[@JP-dj2ro]

Dude can you drop the music please.

Dose it work for Mac also?

Unfortunately no, The Base maps Application is for Windows.

Will this work with tane? Thanks in advance :)

[@Flamerailzzz]

It will work with T:ANE as well.

Awww, thank you :)

[@rhodesianscout9617]

When you do an instructional video like this music in the background of any volume will distract people trying to learn importing Google Images into Trainz.

[@Flamerailzzz]

Not bad video, but music is so loud, that I barely could hear your mic.

Background music is distracting, be a lot easier to hear you without it

I have no idea what you were saying. You talk to quiet and then you put annoying music over everything.
