If not, that's okay.
A lot, if not all Thomas trains are based on real locomotives.

Thomas for example is pretty much a 3F Jinty which is already in LoMo :)
I'm sure that makes it easier

Well, yes.

However, you can't give each locomotive a separate paint scheme. Therefore, both Thomas and Henry will be either blue or green.

I seem to have run into a roadblock.

I added England, and I generated the landscape, but when I built a city, the population was zero. When I tried to expand it, the population remained zero.

Does anyone know what the problem may be?

Thanks.

Did you try and place the town on water, or something? Is there plenty of room for the houses to appear?

What was the 'town size' set to before you clicked?

I tried placing the town on land with plenty of room. I had set the size to 6.

The land height is pretty high (I set it to 30 in the mapgen). Could that be the problem?

EDIT: I figured it out. The town has to be 4 levels above sea level. This means I need to go back and fix the map, but at least I now know what the problem is.

I've been busy this week, so the Island will have to wait a little while.

I have started building cities, however, and I will try to get back to work.

Well, here's what I have right now.

The Island has been generated, but I need to work on the features (mountains, rivers, etc). The cities and industries need to be constructed (the ones you see in the picture were built by the computer).

Since today is Saturday, however, I will resume work on it.

Sorry for the double post, but I have to explain what has been going on with the project...

...which is, unfortunately, not much. See, the map I am working with doesn't have the Aresdale tramline or Culdee's Railway. I need to get a printout so that I can look at the map and work on the Island at the same time.

Sorry to keep you waiting, but I haven't forgotten about it.

Well, the sprites are good. Would there be any way to modify them to be in LoMo?

P.S. I now have the Wiki map, so I'll get back to work.

Dan found someother map, i think. The only thing with blowing the ttd sprites up would be, they would be realy pixelated.

Even if they were pixelated, I wouldn't care. I just really want to see Thomas trains. I appreciate all that you can do.
