  Anybody knows when we will see a refurbished C651 operating?

  You may want to direct your question about the refurbished C651 to the Trains Question THread. The train experts are there. Most likely when you see 225-226, it's refurbished. Nobody has spotted it for a very long time alr..

  Oh what an error.. About the "VPIS", you need to take the files display.animated, display.b3d and display.png and put it into your trian folder. Now, you need to add a section calle:

  ;Animated Display;
  [Object]
  States = Display.b3d
  TextureShiftXFunction = 0.05 * time
  RefreshRate = 0.1

  And put it into your 3131 or any other carridges .animated file. Then you must use Object Viewer to edit the position of the VPIS yourself..

  If you don't understand, please ask the developers to explain it better. As a new person, I can't explain very wel.. =X

  Where's the display.animated, display.b3d and display.png?

  I can put this \|/ anywhere in the .animated file? [EDIT]

  ;Animated Display;
  [Object]
  States = Display.b3d
  TextureShiftXFunction = 0.05 * time
  RefreshRate = 0.1

  Anywhere. Just make sure you don't mess up the other sectors of the coding.

  Download demoroute1 from the OpenBVE website.After download,find the file called "Object" then find the display.animated,diplay.b3d and display.png.After you find it,put those three things into the train you want.After that edit the position YOURSELF.

  Nice, it's at such a pretty cool position! I'm sure alot of people would be able to see it from that low! I couldn't even see the one in our trains since I'm short.

  Edit: Typo error

  OK very simple. Open your folder eg 2219.ANIMATED and then under the code Bngauw gave you type this according to the position you want to place it. EG in Object Viewer (0.02, 1.35, -9.45)

  Type this : Position = 0.02, 1.35, -9.45

  Type according to where you want the placement to be.

  Sarcasm basically means although this person said something like "I am that short", they're just joking, not opposite.

  Rotate object? from .animated file or .csv file?

  Wow! Are you the world's most shortest person? I am pretty sure you broken the record for the most shortest person in the world, so short, you can see that from such a low position! WOW! OMG!

  You don't have to download DemoRoute1. You can get it from nickgoh's HBV Line V4.15. But don't release the train.

  You are not advised to rotate objects from the animated files. Rotate the underlying csv/b3d files instead.

  OK, I'll try that.

  And a question, just curious, is it possible to add an AI train on the opposite track? eg. I'll use the HBV Line as an example.

  >>>> HL1 Harbourvale (Player train)

  HL16 Blackton Junction <<<<<< (AI Train)

  Is this possible?
