Hmmm. With the word FARMERS written in them big letters and grain hoppers at the siding I would presume it's not a improvement on the mouse trap.... It's a nice item ... Nice job.!!!! Sorry I just had to..... :wink:

Question do you actually know anything about Locomotion?

Your questions and then random bursts of designated violent insults towards other users suggests you are a bot or a .............

The plastic pellets are part of the auto industry pack

And bearing in mind the prior discussions over the installation of packs, don't ask where it is or how to use it, there are search functions for that. Please allow the rest of the users here who are trying to discuss and improve this game get on with it in peace

THAT is the auto industry mod pack, now I suggest you don't ask how to use/install it work it out for yourself!

sure are you going to edit the existing track.dat for this pack or create afresh?

Singlesided means on some rotated points the platform appears on the opposite side, doesn't it?

If not then that'd be cool :)

Fresh. you had the beta.. :P


I am still hesitant on the single sided because it uses 2 station Slots for 1 Station when the station slots are in high demand.

I guess it is better to make them since they fit into this map so well and have only a few people use them then to not make them at all.

OK regarding the single sided stations...

As much as i want them... there is a serious flaw in LoMo on how they function.

IF i build this, with the station on the outside:

# = track
] = Station

]##[
]##[
]##[
]##[


then rotate it 180 degree I'll get this with the station on the Inside:

#][#
#][#
#][#
#][#
#][#

I just find that unapealing....
so unless there is a solution I am overlooking.. i'll pass for now on this project.

EDIT! This is now Obsolete* see further into the thread.






Ok next beta is ready,

I might as well go full public with this !


This is a Beta Of the new style installers.
If it proves to be successful, All items in the US pack will be using similar Installers.
It is beta, something could possibly go wrong!
Install this Version at Your own risk!

This Has not been tested on X64 yet, If you have XP64 or VISTA 64 Please let me know before You try to install this!


it is still an unfinished pack but close to its final stages. The instructions for installing are ...

1 unzip (or just open it)
2 run the set up
3 you can only install in your LoMo folder it will do everything it can to avoid that. *see notes
4 It will try to update over the internet to get patches. let me know if there is a problem.
5 use the web installer (it should start on it's own) to install the UP pack and the Scenario *see notes
6 The web installer will launch small install scripts. based on your opinion, I can hide them so they are not visible, it just seemed handy at the time to see them.

This is untested on XP64 or VISTA64 Please contact me if you can test this.

******
note
******

even though it is installed to the Lomo folder, It dose not install it to you objdata folder, It installs it to a temp folder cluster called Chicago_locomotive_Works. inside here you will find the manual install if you fail auto install, plus all the read me's. You can also find the instructions on how to build the gantry signals here.

If You were a first stage beta tester, This setup will remove all the older beta files.




**********
Scenario Note!
**********

The scenario uses a modified Trackst.dat, it is recommended you back yours up first.
The installer SHOULD back your trackst.dat up automatically..... but!!!! i don't want to be responsible in case of an accident.
In some RARE cases, if you have modified road dats, this could cause a conflict. If you wish to install your own modified trackst.dat by hand.. well.. i am not here to support that :P you are on your own. the folder sub-structure should be logical for finding the files on your own.Look in Your locomotion/Chicago_Locomotive_Works\Objects\Scenery\Utah_Map_Mini_Pack folder for the Scenery bits and the Trackst.dat
it would be nice if you ran the map at least once as I had intended.
*********

Please report any errors



You can get it at *removed*
