Trainz, the game, consists of two basic components: a railroad and scenery. Developing the scenery that surrounds the railroad is one aspect of the game that only a few have really mastered. Trainz aficionados are a diverse group and individual users interests and talents are likely to emphasize one or the other of the two. This integrated series of How-To pages will introduce those interested in improving the look of their route—improving the scenery—to techniques they can easily learn and apply. Although scenery objects (assets) are important and will be discussed, the focus here is on the landscape itself: the use of the Topology (sic) and Paint tools in Surveyor Mode. Although applicable to any version of Trainz, the text is based on the tools and renderings available in TRS2019.
