I am new in this forum and so first of all I want to thank all of you for your work to improve one of my old favorite games!
As a fan of German railways I changed an old trainset called "olds.grf" from jezulkim (whom I tried to contact but who did not answer jet) to use it as a self-made "add-on" for MB's "DB-SetXL". It is made to let MB's set start earlier (1920 is too late in my eyes), the changed grafics are already running properly on the track, as you can see on the picture below:
The set contains two small prussian tank-engines (T2- and T3-class in green livery), a passenger wagon (green), a luggage wagon (brown) and also the generic-coloured bus from the original "olds.grf"-data (drawn by PikkaBird?, slighty changed). The only thing I still want to change but can not handle is:
1) the "T2-class" (replacing "Rocket") and the both wagons appear in about 1880 instead of 1825
2) the passenger wagon (replacing "Rocket's Wagon") is able to carry passengers and tourists (due to the ecs-vectors)
3) the luggage wagon (replacing "Rocket's Tender") is able to carry every freight except passengers and tourists (due to the ecs-vectors), especially mail
For you as professional coders this might be an easy work. If you can help me, please contact me! If my set does not mean any insultment (I do not want to risk copyright-conflicts etc. with anybody who already worked on the set), I will publish it afterwards.
So far, regards,
verdennis.
