NYR's Box Supports v1.1
I needed a break from my Stadium Seating 2 project, so I decided to do a little side project, something I found I've needed for my coasters. It's a simple set that includes extendable box-frame supports. I know I've grown tired of making these types of supports piece-by-piece (takes forever!). That's why this set exists, because I wanted one simple object that I could raise and be done with my support. Also, this cuts down on polys A LOT!

v1.1 Updates/Fixes:
- 2 new objects
- Fixed Alpha textures, no more x-ray effect
- Now 1/4 tile placement instead of full tile placement
- Set now appears in the Medium Objects scenery menu instead of Walls menu

There are 10 recolorable objects included:
- Flat 3H
- Flat 3H Diag
- Flat Extended
- Flat Extended Diag
- Gentle Extended
- Gentle Extended Diag
- Steep Extended
- Steep Extended Diag
- Horizontal Bar (new!)
- Horizontal Bar Diag (new!)


Here's a few shots of it in action:

You should use SIAlphaMaskLow on the Alpha Textures. You can see a small X-Ray seam around it. That won't happen with SIAlphaMaskLow. Use the style for alphas which has only visible and invisible, no half transparent areas. ;)

Oh ok, I was wondering if that was possible. However, will the SIAlphaMaskLow work like SIAlphaDS? Because that's what I used for these. Don't want to be unable to see the other side lol.

You can always choose the doubleside option instead of the DS texture styles. It has the same effect.

I think I recall being told not to use SIAlphaDS but to rather use the doubleside option as errt said by Belgabor once.

I have downloaded and its great, but I don't understand how to use the horizontal peices!

I just included the horizontal pieces because for the Steep/Gentle supports, there's no horizontal beam at the top of the object. You can use them to place at the top of those objects to connect the track to the Steep/Gentle support structure. ;)
