Another little steam train WIP...

This should be about my 29th unique loco for MSTS (not counting the 16 repaints and mods)

About 6100 polys so far and rising....

It's looking great. 29 loco's? How do you find the time!
I'm interested in the poly count. Is this figure the poly count in 3DC or MSTS? The reason I ask is that when I rebuilt your 527 loco the poly count in 3DC was around 4000. However the only way I can get the model into Blitz is to export in .x format which seems to triangulate all the faces. I ended up with a poly count of around 7000!! This is a shame as Blitz can handle quads without any problem.
However there is a glimmer of hope, Richard said he would look into the possibility of a .b3d exporter.

The time was over 2 years Smile

poly count should always be quoted as triangles.
_all_ 3D graphics work with them at the basic level (even b3d)
