Now that I’ve got the track rules working, it’s time to have proper overhead tram wires. Most trams around the world are just a single overhead wire, so here it is.

Why are there less than 5 known existing tram mods for Railworks? A couple aren’t even released. Maybe it’s because it’s so confusing to mod the game…
Well I’m hoping to get some sort of base working, maybe release it as a pack for others to create content with it. First, I’m trying to make a track with a small curve radius, attempting to mimic an existing track (Oxford Concrete Clean), though I couldn’t get anything to appear in the editor, even just a track rule. In this video, I ended up modifying the track rule for ‘MainLine’, but modifying existing game files is way too sloppy.
UPDATE: I got custom track rules working.

I finally got a standalone UDK game working. I’ll make some kind of a tutorial, at least about the flash resolution buttons.
The main point was to get all of the custom stuff functional and out of the way. Now I can focus on content. Here are the ‘features’:
-standalone packaged installer
-custom splash screen
-custom intro movie
-custom menu background level with matinee camera loop
-custom menu in flash with resolution changer
-custom gametype in 3rd person
-custom map
-custom AO/post process chain
-custom sounds
