[WIP/REL/HQ] Older US freight / passenger cars

[Walter1940]

Jose, I already allowed to roll your carriages. They are wonderful, as usual.

[kalvingp30fan]

When I just recently downloaded it from AMI trains there were no interurban cars or any of the MILW or NH boxcabs. Did you just forget to put them in there when you put the new version up?

ok couple problems this has not been updated since 07 EARLY 07 so it's dead. and we call this grave digging.

[kalvingp30fan]

I was hoping Jose might see this and maybe will fix it.

[Plastikman]

This set is pretty much abandoned.

It was posted in Pretty much in "Public Beta Stage". it was sort of released and never looked back.

There are dozens of minor things that need adjusting. mostly cargo.

After it was posted, I don't think Jose ever posted in the Lomo forum again.

To bad, we can always use more US stock.

[kalvingp30fan]

Did you download it Plastikman? I was wondering if you could give the files if you still have them?

[Jose]

Alright sorry about this major bump, but soon after this set was released as plastikman states i did basically leave the forums. This ws due to my computer harddrive crashing and i lost all the files except the ones that i had uploaded. When i brought a new computer locomotion could not work either due to (im not sure) vista, graphics card or some other thing plus the free time that i had from university and work was a real contraint. So i lost interest in locomotion. Now though i have a new laptop on which it works (along with locotool as well, which frustrated me so much) so i am happy to ressolve any issues that exist in this set if you are still interested. I will also i the near future try to resize them and fix some of the graphics to make them more compatable with plastikmans stuff. Also if anyone is still interested i am keen to go one with this set time permitting.

Welcome Back. long time no see...

[noofnoof]

Is he Justin Cornell? I'd always wondered who that was in your credit stuff.

yikes, way before my time I guess.

[Plastikman]

Justin is norfolksouthern37 on the forums.

He is pretty much doing RailWorks trains right now as far as I know.. ?

He is in the credits a lot because he has so many models in the US set. He did a ton of stuff for MSTS and Lomo back in the day. He has helped a lot in donating his 3D models to the US set. He also made several renders in the US set like the ACe's and GP60m's. He also helped to get the set started then help rework it to where it is now.. while he is not super active, the US set has his finger prints all over it. I may be the front man, but there are lots of people that have helped behind the scenes. Especially the MSTS community.

Plus, made some fun things like the searchlights we all use.,, and who could forget the EMD103? (LoL besides me?)

.. and who could forget the EMD103?

There is the original FT demo set for Lomo? Seeing as a search for EMD 103 turned up nothing, was it a beta?

OOPS! Big Typo on my part...

I ment to say EMD SD138. Told You even I forgot!

I cant find a smaller image of it, Picture of it on the 21rst century image.





/ugh at thread hijacking.... and spliting it will be even more confusing

Welcome Back. long time no see...

it has been! i had a look at the screenshot on the previous page and i have just realised how much stock i have lost. Oh well ill fix up what i have and remove the ones that have been done.

[bluebeetle]

if you fixed up the ATSF Fairbanks-Morse H12-44-TS, i would play the heck out of it. Same with the CN, CP, L.V. and D&H stuff.

[Jose]

After finally managing to get the newer version of msts2loco finally working on vista every time i open a .s file i get runtime error 6 'overflow'. i was able to get the older version to work without a problem but i dont like the look of the darkside they produce. I cant seem to register d3drm.dll if that has anything to do with it. Vista is frustrating sometimes.

[Tattoo]

I had the same problem with Vista. Vista blows. I got Wiindows 7 now and it's A LOT better except for the MSTS2lomo problem. Plastikman told me about Route Ritter and it worked for me. Here's the link if you'd like to try it. http://www.rstools.info/

Wow, thankyou it works now! its good that there are people out there like plastikman to help the computer illiterate like myself. If only i still had photoshop cs3, elements 7 has no batch process option for what i need to do.

[Jose]

Since i have finished university for the year i have had a bit of time to start work on this set, here i what i have so far. These have no dark sizd are properly sized.

[kalvingp30fan]

Looks Awsome! is that some new MILW steeplecabs I see?

[Jose]

Yeah they are. But i have a lot of mucking around with them before they are ready. The ones in the shot are just the bobtail unit repeated.
