All,

Can someone point me to a tutorial on animating doors for TSM models? I haven't found any at the usual MSTS tute sites. What I am planning to animate is a blade on a wagon so the motion is only up and down about 200mm or so. There is also an idicator arm on the roof which pivots in the opposite direction to the blade.(blade up = arm down)

Cheers,
David.

G'day Rowie,

This tute covers all sorts of vehicle animation;

Anything by Paul DeVerter is good. I've had a bit to do with him since the early days of TSM/MSTS and he knows his stuff.

Tim Muir over at Elvas Tower is pretty switched on too. We were there at the beginning of TSM and MSTS. Check these fora out;

Lots of really helpful info in there.

Cheers,

Thanks Matt. Obviously I wasn't looking in the right places I'll trawl through them and hopefully my brain will be able to work it out

Cheers,
David.
