Trainz Appendices or Appendixes references 1 1 1 1 Table of Contents to Trainz Reference Pages green blue alttitle2=Fundamentals for Trainz Trainees Trainz Main TOC Trainz reference pages R Index of Tags & Containers Indexes, technical, Introductory Trainz C Containers, K, TBS, & T Tags Purpose This Appendix index page is a master Table of Contents page for reference material relocated into Trainz Wikibook Appendix pages. If you wish to contribute to clarifying the obtuseness of the N3V wiki, see Talk: for guidelines or to post a question.   There will be a lot of adds to this TOC to come!   Main Data Types (KINDS) The TOC for Containers and subcontainer topic pages is at C. All the below Child Classes are considered to have the (TrainzBaseSpec) as their Parent Class of data. Note This list is 'wikified' on the N3V TrainzOnline Wiki, meaning the first letter has been capitalized after the word 'KIND', whereas actual data tag names in config.txt files are all lower case text. Here on the Wikibook, we are making our articles faithful in case to the actual keyword's case, that is lowercase, no capitalization. That wiki also uses double quotes in quite a few terms, a practice which we'll spare you from experiencing herein. This eases searching for terms and lessens confusion. The column evaluations, Importance and Frequency are blended evaluations weighted for the new Trainzer faced with the necessity of fixing assets to expand on Built-In assets and tap into the hundreds of thousands of Trainz assets available on the over 500 fan sites and the DLS Trainz Download Station websites. The numeric weighted evaluation columns are explained below the following table.   Child Class KINDs (type asset groups) ## Imp Freq Kinds Type 01   0     01    KD KIND Achievement-category 02   0     01    KD KIND Achievement-group 03   0     01    KD KIND Activity - undef'd 04   0     01    KD KIND Asset-group 05   0     01    KD KIND Behavior 06   5     01    KD KIND Bogey 07   7     01    KD KIND Buildable 08   1     01    KD KIND Controlset 09   9     01    KD KIND Consist - undef'd 10   5     01    KD KIND Drivercharacter 11   3     01    KD KIND Drivercommand 12   9     01    KD KIND Engine KD KIND Engine 13   7     01    KD KIND Enginesound 14   2     01    KD KIND Environment 15   4     01    KD KIND Fixedtrack 16   0     01    KD KIND Gameplaymenu 17   2     01    KD KIND Groundbrush - undef'd 18   4     01    KD KIND Groundtexture 19   5     01    KD KIND Hornsound 20   8     01    KD KIND HTML-asset 21   9     01    KD KIND Industry 22   3     01    KD KIND Interior 23   8     01    KD KIND Library 24   3     01    KD Class Library 25   7     01    KD KIND Map ## Imp Freq Kinds Type 26   7     01    KD KIND Mesh 27   5     01    KD KIND Module - undef'd 28   9     07    KD KIND MOCrossing 29   7     07    KD KIND MOJunction 30   7     07    KD KIND MOSignal 31   5     06    KD KIND MOSpeedboard 32   5     01    KD KIND Pantograph 33   9     06    KD KIND Product 34   7     06    KD KIND Product-category 35   9     09    KD KIND Profile 36   5     03    KD KIND Region 37   5     01    KD KIND Scenariobehavior - undef'd 38   9     10    KD KIND Scenery 39   7     07    KD KIND Scenery-Trackside 40   8     08    KD KIND SceneryWithTrack 41   5     01    KD KIND Servlet 42   7     01    KD KIND Steam-engine 43   4     02    KD KIND Texture 44   1     01    KD KIND Texture-group 45   9     10    KD KIND Track 46  10     10    KD KIND TrainzBaseSpec 47   1     03    KD KIND Tracksound 48   9     10    KD KIND Traincar 49   3     03    KD KIND Turntable 50   2     01    KD KIND Water2 Legend: The higher the IMP figure (rated 0-10) the earlier a user should become familiar with the KIND. Part of the adjustment/rating is how often said KIND will be found as the subject of faulty content. Conversely, the lower the factor, the more specialized knowledge of it becomes, making it most important only to those doing advanced content creation. Such low numbers are both less frequent generally and less troublesome to those trying to use older content—which will always have utility off the tracks a few dozens of feet where less detail is tolerable and high definition is unneeded and indeed likely to have an adverse impact on framerates and rendering. The frequency factor (range:0–9 is directly determined by the experience from fixing over 2,000 faulty assets of what KINDs one most often sees with faults which need correction. The hyperlink in square braces (e.g. [14]) following each internal link accesses directly the matching page of the N3V Wiki enabling easy comparison and checks for updates. In general, the page topic herein will have better examples and a more robust explanations and background knowledge.   References TOC General knowledge topics and appendices index  R  S  E  Page title as Link  Comments R         ACS Text Format    Explains what is and is not allowed in Trainz string data.    E  T   TD category-class tag        E      TD category-region tag               tbdl name               R Trainz build versions code build number    The unique Software build identifying precisely which release version, Service Packs, and other software updates are installed on a computer install.           tbdl name               C Containers    About Trainz Containers and TOC to such.           Hotkeys,CM&CMP   Beginners cheat sheet — Lists Hotkeys active in Content Manager (CM).           R Hotkeys,Drivers   Beginners cheat sheet — Lists Hotkeys active in Trainz Driver.            R HKeys-SUR   Beginners cheat sheet — Lists Hotkeys active in Trainz Surveyor.            R Hotkeys,Drivers   Beginners cheat sheet — Lists Hotkeys active in Trainz Driver           R HKeys-WIN    Lists standard Windows Hotkeys active in Trainz editing, data manipulation and file management.           tbdl name     T         KD Kinds    All the many KIND types directory and exposition           R File types    Listing Article listing Trainz's file types, their extensions, and scope.           tbdl name               Glossary    Comprehensive brief term definitions and reminders ; use TG to link.           tbdl name               tbdl name               tbdl name               x Mouse use    Beginners cheat sheet gives instructions on using mice in the various game modules.           name Names tags    Asset-name, name and username tag explanations found here.           y Notations    Beginners cheat sheet and auxiliary glossary gives Railroading expressions and terminology in the game, forums, and the real world.
