This is useful to create curved objects such as rails, walls, embankments, etc. This tool allows to concatenate object segments and to bend the resulting mesh. (version 1.2.11.0 Released 7 January 2011) Object Bender The camera can be moved, rotated and zoomed. This tool allows to preview one or more object files. The openBVE 2 Renderer Demo has been shut down and is no longer available.

The current version of openBVE has numerous additional features compared to BVE Trainsim: In addition, add-ons such as trains or routes produced for BVE Trainsim (Boso View Express) can be read by openBVE. These cab interiors, along with the general realism and accuracy of openBVE, have received praise from commentators. Trains in openBVE can be operated either from a third-person external view or a first-person perspective, with the latter positioning the user at the controls of the cab. Several content editors are freely available from openBVE project's website. openBVE uses both the OpenGL graphics renderer and the OpenAL audio engine, and is distributed along with C# and C source code. Written largely in C#, Development began on 10 April 2008, and the first stable version, 1.0.0.0, was released on 23 March 2009.
