OK, OK,

Don't take this too seriously....
I am working on a few new Items (I say new loosely they should look familiar in a much better quality)
Since I am building these items for beta, I thought it might be fun to Make New textures for the Items. I wanted a company that makes everything. Who else but the Umbrella Corporation? They ultimately will take over the world.

First items up to bat.
Intermodal.

MHQ Multi-state Inter modal cars with working loads and bogeys.

Pigs on an 89' Flat


Pigs In well cars

Car 1


Car 2 (Different slogan on each side)



The Piggybacks load one trailer at a time in lomo for 1/2 cargo.

Let me know what you think about these. both the cars as a beta for North American items in lomo and the idea of releasing more Umbrella Corp (and maybe other similar ideas).

Next up, Coal hoppers (or boxcars)....

Lovely trailer, good work as usual, that red cross reminds of the templars

Edit:
ok playing with hopper designs, i am sort of stuck.. i figgured the bethgon would get a more modern looking logo, They are vain so i'll assume they like lots of big logos..

here is the WIP atm.. i'm going to bed. maybe someone else might have a better idea?

[strongbow]

Lol. My Loco is becoming very evil.

[djmerlin]

I need photos to work off of.

[Azetta]

It's a great idea. I will definitely use them.

The long flat car seems to have a problem in the corners though.

hrmm.. i ran those for hours and never saw that, i wonder if the electric pole is causeing a clip?
thanks

Edit* ok i found a major bug, MY latop HD failed and i lost most of my lomo stuff this week. the script i used for assembling the multistate cars is really old and was only 1/2 finnished. i might have to rebuild those and upload them again i'll have to examine the PNG's closely

**edit again... yup. png 41, (the one you see clipping there) is corrupt, I'll have to re-upload it.. i am not sure why the one in my objdata folder is good but the one i downloaded from TT is bad. maybe it got scrambled in rar'ing?

ok edit again.. the problem is fixed. beta testing again then ill upload it.

[Plastikman]

Ok, thanks for the Bug fix, it is fixed and uploaded. (in first post)

Here is where i am at on the Coalporter.

I think I might start all over. it dithers bad in lomo at this color and looks.. well... bad..




I am also starting to suspect some people don't get the "Umbrella Corporation" Joke. like Spiff up there...

the are big train in the Resident Evil movie but i can not find any photos of that train sorry


all members her help me find it

[ballz]

I don't find photos too(( But I think coal hopper must be more modern, like company itself. Perhaps using many little hoppers or two boxes on flatcar be better, because as you all knows for sure, Umbrella's trains running underground.)) And maybe you can use black and red/white colors on all side of hoppers instead small logo. Black hopper with umbrella sign.

Well, Mostly this was public beta for items for the US set. let you guys catch the bugs now instead of after i make 20 paintjobs and have to start all over. They do have normal stuff also (note the racoon city metro bus).

There are plans to make future style stuff eventually. (not giving away any secrets)

This was the paint job i did a few days ago on the Hopper, Total redesign of the Bethgon. I'll try and post it later today.

[ballz]

Well, that scheme looks better. Tell me, Plastikman, can you make Umbrella's high speed underground train with 3rd rail? This might be awesome!

I have no refferance photos for it.. what i do have, and already started. the train from the Firefly series, and The train from "The Island". I am not really in a rush to get them out.

[lobster]

s***, i thought umbrella was from Excel Saga, but it's Resident Evil indeed. looks rather nice, really.

[ballz]

Do you have in plans other Umbrella's wagons like Chemicals, boxcars for Goods etc.? And maybe Combines Train from Half-Life 2?

[Plastikman]

few suprises but who knows? it is more of a joke and a way to get free beta testers for new stuff.

Box car is already 1/2 done so is another suprise.. ugh i forgot to post that hopper, sorry

[ballz]

I can test any stuff, just post it))).
