I like this idea. However it seems to me that any previous mesh editing is lost when the old mesh is deleted. Is this so? Not complaining. I am of the...
Actually it isn't a limitation: A. Before the steps outlined below, select the existing mesh and use Edit/Mesh/Create Contour Lines for Mesh. This will create...

Rick, This appeared on the 'other' users list, but bears repeating here. JMSmith87 offered this tip: To set the spacing while using the [parallel] tool, click...
I am playing around with 3PI and am wondering if I am missing something. It seems to me that I should be able to adjust the track like I can the terrain. For...
Michael, Ovals don't have straight sides -- oh, you mean an oval of track :o} I generally work backwards than most people. I rough out my track plan (on a...
I'm trying out the 3pi sw for my new layout, but I get the wrong double track spacing (29mm?) when snapping the Peco 55 (PE55) Medium and Large turnouts...
It could be that the library turnout dimensions are not accurate. Printout the library turnouts full size and put a real turnout on top of the printout. The...

Hi John, First thing I would try would be to reinstall 7.11.154 and 3PI will pick up your user name and password about the third screen that appears. Make a...

Danny (?) Thanks so much for the tip. You were right, the data is in the registry (I didn't think of that). However, it was in the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE...

My point: Don't ever give up the ship. FWIW, I own 3rdPlanit and Cadrail. After playing with CAD/CAM systems all day at work, it's kinda nice to pick up a good...
