Hi guys, I'm still around. I have not had much time for TS or 3d modeling since we had a baby girl 9 moths ago. I do still have the AutoMax cars on my plate, eventhough they are probably a little moldy now...and I'm still looking at the spine cars too. Those are still giving me fits. If memory serves, the last version (5) of the AM cars did solve most of the derailment issues, with the provision that the cars are 22' tall and if you take the curves too fast they will tip over. Watch the colored bulls-eye and see how often you go into the yellow at speed. The cars are made as an A and a B, with the B having an invisible truck, and both having the bar type couplers on the hidden end.
As a side note, if you have been working with the bin files and have gotten them to be more stable, let me know. Also, if you know anything about how the bounding box works and have gotten it to work for your created cars, let me know too. I always have issues if my box is bigger than 5m long. Papa, sorry I was not able to contribute to the RCAP rel 2, life happened, big time.
Thanks,
Daniel
