On this page you will find utilities designed to make various
aspects of developing for BVE easier. Click on the download links.
Station Nameboard Generator
With this utility you can build your own custom station
nameboards from a large selection of different styles
representing TOC’s from the UK and beyond! Included
in this package are nameboards from the London
Underground, a selection of BR “totem” signs from the
50’s and a handful from the Cityrail network of Sydney,
Australia. You don’t have to stop at station
nameboards, of course. You can also import your own
textures to create signs for all different purposes!

the files to a directory of your choice to add
that personal touch to your BVE routes!
Platform Generator
Build all your platforms in just seconds with this handy
utility! Not only can you construct csv platforms from
the library of textures supplied, but you can also custom
build by either selecting from a host of features or by
importing your own textures. No need to resize these
either - the program takes care of that for you! You can
make straight ones, curved ones, ramp up, ramp down,
left or right sided, even island platforms by combining
them. Use the platforms as freeobjects in your routes.
Click on the image to the right and extract
the files to a directory of your choice. Then
get cracking building those platforms!
Object Converter and Sphere Creator
We are pleased to announce that Sanford Mace has recently given us permission to host his BVE
work here at BVE Library. We kick off with two of his most popular utilities.
Click on the images for your downloads and extract them to a folder of your choice.
First up is his Object Converter tool, with which you
can perform two-way conversion between b3d and
csv files, plus move, resize and mirror your objects in
all three axes.
Second is his Sphere Creator tool, which can make
a sphere, a cylinder, a cube or a torus. Be careful
with this one - it uses a lot of faces!
