Better 3D view with the ability to see rolling stock and basic building shapes instead of flat images
The available 3D view is not really much help when trying to imagine building placement or the appearance of a populated railway.
All I am asking for is that the presently flat shapes of buildings (i.e. self drawn rectangles) and rolling stock gain some height in the 3D view.

We're in the early stages of developing a completely reimagined 3D mode for Version 7.
Please note that the schedule is currently penciled in and subject to refinement -

Any update on this feature? Would be sooo nice!

Standard buildings/structures such as Marklin 8983 Roundhouse, 8980 Engine Shed, 8965 Control/Signal tower, 8982 Coaling Station, and other common structures (esp. those associated with track) should be added. At least in 2D.

Quick update:
The current "Tracks 3D" view is a temporary solution in order to enable users to view and navigate the layout in 3D.
Our road map includes a much enhanced 3D mode:
• awesome graphics
• full terrain modeling (editing elevations)
• all structures placed at arbitrary heights
• dedicated, fully three-dimensional objects (and editors) for trees, houses, ..
