How do you make the external trains align with tracks?

Here is something I have a question about for NYCT trains in BVEStation for openbve:

Why do all cars (the exterior views) all make not-so-perfect (or rather, very bad) turns? It shows that they are not aligned with the tracks!

I have posted this topic on the openbve forums page under Technical Support. If any of you can or know how to fix this problem, please reply on the openbve forums or reply here - after reading the very long post that I have made (...sorry, but I had to make it in detail with some pictures of my own cars - they are all in development. Leave comments about them if you want to).

You read my post that quickly  :o ?!

To answer that - For the NYCT trains, they do - but the LT1995_openbve train apparently doesn't (well, maybe a slight bit, but it's as close as it can in turning like what an actual train does. If the LT1995_openbve train can do so, why can't our trains do so?

ipaclansite:

There are many factors that go into this.  First, our trains and our platforms are aligned to the exact positions, so there's not even a half an inch of a gap, which makes turns especially on curved platforms, scratch the platforms.  Second some of our trains do not match up with their train.dat files, and therefore you see a huge gap between the cars.  Finally, our trains weren't remade for OpenBVE, not yet anyway, as most of the LU routes recreated their trains to be OpenBVE exterior view compatible.

In conclusion, our trains were built to be static trains and static trains only.  No aesthetics were done since we never anticipated any "moving" cars, of course we do have several people who are working on newer exterior objects, so we'll stay tuned for those.

yeah NYCT trains to go with openbve they are mostly made for BVE 2 and somtimes BVE 4
