[REL] The Serpent Scenario no MOD

[Zimmlock]

Hi there, i had a lot of requests if i couldnt release The Serpent a little less complicated. This is as scenario not possible, but as a save game it is, i had to UNmod it in the editor, but when i tested the scenario still lots of stuff was selected so i LocoMOD away all unwanted objects, so now its a save game and you can MOD in what ever you want only default objects are selected except one. You still need the Boundary marker.
So when you open this you can start building at once using default trains, its januari 1920.

I love you!

No seriously, I have been trying to get this to work since it came out.

[hectobar]

I cannot start to say how thankfull I am!

[pullin4u]

Thank you Zimmlock!

I'm working on this scenario to make it realy mod-free and in a way that it can be used from the scenario-editor. I'm also combining it with the new automod that I'm working on. There are so far two mods and a bunch of sounds that I can't get out of the serpent mod free.

The onlythings that I selected where the tram-track, and the US Road (with the yellowline in the center). 1 Vehicle, the Oil-Tanker. Nothing else.

It still uses some mods...

Here's a small list:

EXALCO : EXALCO.DAT (what is this ?)

BLOCKADE : BLOCKADE.DAT (wich is the Boundry Marker)

I don't know where all the sounds are from (but I can't get them out in now way), but I think most of them are from Plastikman and Zimmlock. So I need permission to release it. I think I'm gonna ask Zimmlock about that...so we will see what's going on.

The rest of the serpent is absolutely mod-free, I have already tested it on a clean install of locomotion (and put the sounds, exalco and the blockade.dats in my clean objdata folder) and it worked in the scenario-editor.

So I'll do my best for it...and hope to release it soon in this topic !

[TheSpeedy09]

You will never get the sound out of the map.

Exalco means the smoke of diesel trains. Needed from a modded train.

[Emperor Darth Sidious]

I know...but I think I will get permission to release this. If Zimmlock got the permission so will I...

[Emperor Darth Sidious]

I have permission from Zimmlock to release that "mod-free"version of the Serpent. But you still need to download these soundfiles:

I put the blockade and the exalco file with it, but you must download these sounds for yourself. Probably via Amitrains, even if I wanted to include the sounds it's not possible because there is a maximum of 2mb allowed in every upload...When you have done that, you can open up the serpent landscape with no other mods selected. The only things that are selected is the original oilrigg, the oil-tanker and the roughroad.

Here it is:

Hi there. In the last hours I tried to install the Serpent scenario, but I failed multiple times, also following the README to the letter.

Then I discovered this topic. I downloaded the scenario from the link by Zimmlock but it didn't start.
So I used LocoSSA and I found that the SNDSD45E.dat was missing.
I searched for this damn .dat all over the internet, also using .datCrawler, but nothing.

But then I found this site (http://locomotion.pytalhost.com/sound.html) where this guy uploaded some dats.

There you can find the SNDSD45E.dat, just click it, download it, and paste it in your ObjData folder.
Now you can play The Serpent by simply loading the map in the Locomotion start menu.

(I don't know if I said something obvious or not, but it took so many time for me to find a way to play this map, that I just wanted to share it with everyone. I hope I could be useful.)

Hello,

I re-worked the "mod free" version of the Serpent that I released (much) earlier...it's a landscape, so you can still add all of your own trains and industries.

I found out that it wasn't completly mod free, because one cargo (Rubber) from my old (and no longer available) NAM-Mod was needed to play this "mod-free" version. Now the only files needed for the Serpent are these files:

It's way too much work to find out which soundfile is needed for what locomotive, but the trainfiles that you do need to get these sound and vehicle-effect files (according to Zimmlock's Readme for the original Serpent are these):

- LTD1 Conrail Alco Pack.
- New Jersey transit Pack.
- US Megapack and all patches (3.0.3 minimum)
- The London and Port Stanley pack V2.0
-7 Install the PROVO Map Included with the CLW/Dekosoft UP pack

All of the sound-files and the Vehicle-Effect can be found on AMItrains (which can now be downloaded via Owen Rudge his website) here: http://www.locomotiondepot.net/amitrains/.

The scenario only needs the standard ingame cargotypes, so you don't have to look for them.

The Blockade.dat can be found here:

[Walter1940]

As a "mod-free" I understand that no mods needed. Is this possible?

[Emperor Darth Sidious]

I'm sorry Walter, but I'm afraid that these sounds can't be taking out in no way, I have tried different things...The same goes for the vehicle-effects.

I can take out the "Boundry Markers" but the I have to demolish all of them on the map...That will be a lot of work. But because most people by now have downloaded all of Ami's packs and newcomers can download them as well there shouldn't be that much of a problem anymore.

Greetz,

Erik

[C3805.]

I'm having trouble find SNDLUMBR. Any help would be appreciated.

[Pacific RailRoad]

Oh wow

I've only discovered this after wasting an entire afternoon trying to get the map to work.

[C3805.]

I don't suppose you'd have that file then?

[Zakos]

I have no idea what it is, as I don't have it either.

[Greyfox]

I have the file "SNDLUMBR" in Object.dat files both for "Soldier Summit" and "The Serpent". So I assume the authors of both scenarios would have answers.

My game doesn't see this "mod free" scenario. The Serpent original scenario is visible.
I get Boundary_Marker & extracted blockade.dat to ObjData. What could be wrong (maybe OpenLoco) ?
"The Serpent no MOD.SV5" save working fine. What scenarios madeed by community do you propose to play with ?
