All A-BART
[ 2016-11-22 05:02:34 CET ] [ Original post ]
This update was suppose to be more of a content update, but I got sidetracked (npi) by technical stuff.
The stuff that most people will be interested in is the addition of BART cars in three sizes and multiple-unit support. MU support means you can couple multiple engines in the same train and changing the throttle or brake force in one will change it for all of them.
Then I got distracted implementing batching support which has the potential to improve performance in certain situations, but has yet to be proven. You can toggle batching from the toolbox. I'd love to hear if it makes the game run smoother for anyone.
- Added multiple-unit train support
- Added 3 sizes of cabbed and non-cabbed BART cars
- Added table with tunnel entrances so that trains can actually get underground
- Adjusted height of passenger car
- Added handles to boxcar doors and removed open lever (you can just pull them open now)
- Fixed up some holes in the trolley mesh
- Added toolbox hide button to toolbox (press the menu button to bring it back)
- Added support for static and dynamic batching to reduce draw calls
- Fixed pinch to zoom scaling to the wrong position when the room is rotated

Are you a kid that wants to play with model trains?

Are you an adult that missed out on playing with model trains as a kid?
Are you an adult with a kid that wants to play with model trains?
Are you just an adult that wants to play with model trains?
Are you a person of any age/race/gender that wants to play with model trains?
If you answered yes to any of the above, do I have news for you because Locomancer lets you PLAY WITH AND RIDE MODEL TRAINS!
(Also if you answered no to all of the above, come on, we all know you're lying to yourself and everyone you love. Take a break from the wave shooters and play with some trains.)
Locomancer is a toy box style model train simulator for touch enabled SteamVR headsets. It allows you to build layouts of varying complexity and even defy what is physically possible in fake virtual reality (reality).
Plus, with support for custom scenery, you can bring models created by yourself or the community into the game for even further customization (Steam Workshop support coming soon). The possibilities are nearly endless*!
Fully embracing the physicality of touch enabled virtual reality you are legally required to build layouts piece by piece, tree by tree. Then, once complete you must remotely operate your trains with a replica DC control panel or hop in the cab of any of the available locomotives and drive them with physical levers, knobs, and dials! They even burst in to flames when they crash, you can't say that about your real model trains can you?
Oh...you can? I'd get that checked out if I were you.
So what are you waiting for? Become The Locomancer!
Yes, you are the Locomancer. Was that not clear? It's like a train wizard. You're like the babe with the power, but instead of voodoo it's train magic. Also, there's no magic dance, but you can still dance to twenty-six minutes of sweet big band jazz by Nathan Boler if you want to.
*The possibilities are totally endful, but there's still a lot you can do.
