A few minor bug fixes. nothing major.


2 new Items...
I decided the those NS locos needs something unique to NS to pull.. TopGons..
Norfolk Southern's home built gondolas based on the Bethgon. They are made from rebuilding their old coal hoppers.
They have several thousand of these and are seen all over the NS rails..

Image




Something i have tons of requests for and I have wanted for a long time myself...

Iron Ore Jennys
Image
Image

I have just made them generic for now, it is almost impossible to tell most of them apart in lomo.
They are still pretty experimental for now. I am still working out a good balance between realistic stats and game play.
they hold a bit more Ore then other hoppers at a trade off of speed.


feedback is always welcome..

It could be that I'm missing a pack, but I've got Santa Fe, Southern RS2's and BC, PRR, and Soo RS3's which I believe I acquired through the mega pack, and I've got all the other Dekosoft packs.
Just to get an idea if I'm missing one;

These look great! I would definitely use them and personally, I would enjoy them with realistic stats, but that's just me.
And perhaps a black Ore Hopper along with the brown one, if you are going to keep it generic.

Looking good!

Yard limit speeds when full would be realistic.. As far as I can know, they usually are about 25-30MPH when loaded and normal line speed when empty..
I did not think they would be useful in lomo limited to 25MPH.
I also put a smaller load then they probably would hold... so faster.. holding less.. to try and make them fit into the game..

the other option would be Heavy load (that might never make it up a hill in lomo) and real slow.. they would then probably need there own line..
if you want to a set like that..

as I said, I'm still testing them while trying to keep them useful...


(reminds me of those transformers cars I made. lots of cargo capacity at horrid slow speed. no one uses them. myself included.)

@Plastic, I used the web updater that came with the CLW packs and got nothing new that I noticed. Is the only way to update via your pytalhost page or did i do something wrong? BTW I have looked at the new goodies and I definitely wont mind going out of my way to download them. :D

Thats not much help...

I believe the public is on "CLW_US_Megapack_1.1.2_Patch_Tool.exe"


It should either run or give you an error.. The error will depend on several variables.. whats the error if you get one?

I don't get an error message for most of the packs... I don't remember which packs gave me an error, it probably was the "We were not able to connect to the server. Either you are not connected to the internet or our crappy servers are down." The locos work but I'm having a problem with the Big boy and challenger locomotives. It gives me the error (BBsteam/some random number). Also I can select the stations and signals with the Provo Pack but they won't show up in game. I'll try to get a screen shot of the Big Boy error.

BBsteam is the smoke file for the bigboy. that and the sound files are located in the same pack you found the bigboy itself in.. it sounds like you didnt install correctly.

the signal issue is your trakst.dat file that is messing those up.. you need to make your own or use the one from the Provo map..

OK I'll try re-installing provo to see if that fixes it. AFAIK I have the trakst.dat from provo installed....

Edit: I got provo re-installed; it works, I have something messed up with the web installer.

Plastikman, I decided to play Lomo again and started from scratch. Installed lomo then downloaded all of your stuff from AMI. I got a few error messages when installing and am posting screenshots of the errors I got so you know what is going on with your installers and updaters.

I think I can only do 3 images in 1 post so I'll add them to others if needed.

I started with the mega pack and got an error from the web update. But it installed fine.

Then Pre-Amtrak stuff and got the popup that it crashes for some people.

Then it did crash for me. I have Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit.

I believe everything installed fine except for the Chicago & Northwestern stuff. I'll have to go thru the hive to see what didn't get installed tho, but that'll take some time b4 I know what's what with it.

Again, these are just the messages I got when installing from all new downloads from AMI.

Thanks again for all your hard work to make playing Locomotion more fun... :D

Yup yup..


I know about all of those errors but thanks for the reminders. Glad to see you back and about. I was actually going to send you a PM last week to see if you were still about.

The megapack outdated bits.. yes. and actually there is an even newer version in beta. no point in fixing that just yet. The mega pack wil; be updated very soon. I am just working out a few new bits and some outstanding bugs. (I have hit a point that I can not put the new bug fixes as web updates)..

Pre amtrak crash.. that's actually not the installer. It is a windows library bug that crashes. It is a bug that gets worse as hardware gets faster. especially with I5/I7's and SSD's. I am making to many system calls to fast for file copies and folder creations. I get ahead of windows and kill it. I have to come up with a whole new solution.. easiest is to just have it dynamically generate a bat file (or a second copy script) that copies the files OR put a quarter second pause after each file transaction.. this crash happens in all the packs. but the Amtrak and Pre-Metro ones crash the most because I am creating to many folders at once. My I7-3770 64GB ram and dual Sata3 SSD's crashes constantly with the packs.. trust me i am feeling this bug hard.

for now. just keep re-running them till they take. they will eventually install. I have been looking into it ..

LTD2. I did fix it and then never published it. (was trying to sneak updates into it and got sidetracked)

LTD3. yeah it was never an official release.. it is beta. so no online support.. it cant find the update because i never made one..

Automod Also has no update.. i am 3 behind in releaseing Automod3. I guess I was ignoring the error hoping It would get finished before tattoo noticed.

I guess i should put up a dummy update (empty) file for the ones with no updates...


It has been slightly busy in my camp for lomo. my to-do list is huge but time is not on my side.

Forgot the CNW hive unreadable..

That error is a file location error. your dats for that pack are either not in the hive (folder).. "empty hive"., or you ran the EXE from a folder/location outside of where it belongs. try the full install again. if you still get the error. we can look at your log files and see where it is blowing up. it looks like you are missing the main CNW pack looking at what i can see in background window.

I just downloaded and installed the pack. no issues here.


EDIT:
LoL your bug searching made me find a bug in the DK transfer packs. it is minor and not worth an update. I just misses a few lines of data in the log files if you dont do a web check.. this bug only effects the log file creation. not the packs.. the logs are just for debugging install issues.

I did it all twice Plastik and got the same error. Let me try again and see what happens.

EDIT:
First I found all the .dat files in the hive and copied them to the ObjData folder and they were all there to overwrite but when using the tranfer utility to install them to the ObjData folder, I got the error again.

I reinstalled it from the download again and used the tranfer utility to install them to the ObjData folder again and I didn't get the error this time. So it IS working now so I guess all is good then.

Thanks bro...

EDIT2: BTW, when searching the .dat files, I noticed you have a locotool.exe in the EMD_GP15-1 folder of Chicago_and_North_Western hive folder.

I also found it in these as well so it's in there 3 times.
