My first custom scenery - buckwilde - Oct 21, 2012 This is my first custom scenery set. I needed these parts to finish a skyscraper I'm building. I hope you like them. When I finish making my icons, I'll upload the set. As much as I like making structures, I doubt this will be my last CS set. Y'all have fun! RE: My first custom scenery - Kinderly - Oct 21, 2012 I like it! I will definitely use those column pieces! Could use a little improvement here and there, but not bad for your first CS set. RE: My first custom scenery - buckwilde - Oct 22, 2012 Thanks, Kinderly! They definitely made a difference in the structure I'm currently making. Have fun! RE: My first custom scenery - RCTgoMatthew - Oct 22, 2012 ^Hey b, how do you make the OVL files that come in a file folder for the CS? RE: My first custom scenery - buckwilde - Oct 22, 2012 The RCT3 Importer makes the OVL files for you. It's the first step in importing your CS. RE: My first custom scenery - RCTgoMatthew - Oct 22, 2012 ^ What CS maker do you have, for example: Google Sketchup? RE: My first custom scenery - RCTgoMatthew - Oct 22, 2012 But when I create OLV'S, its only 2 ovl files. RE: My first custom scenery - buckwilde - Oct 22, 2012 Yes, I'm using Google Sketchup 8. You must create an ovl for each scenery item. It makes a common and a unique, so those should be your two. Does this make sense? RE: My first custom scenery - RCTgoMatthew - Oct 22, 2012 Do I have to make a folder? Please can you post a Tutorial on how to make OVL files for RCT3 Importer. RE: My first custom scenery - buckwilde - Oct 22, 2012 ^^ I'll do my best, sweets. To answer your question, though, yes I make a folder for each theme I'm making. So for that set, I have a folder on my desktop called buckwilde memphis that has all my texture jpgs, my sketchup *.ase files, and my *.ovl files in it. It also has my saved .thm files (theme files) and the *.xml or data sheet where each piece is located. It may take me a few days to make a CS tutorial. What are you trying to make? Walls, supports...because placement varies in the importer. Have fun!
