The legend updated the link! Thank you so much Maquinista!
(Maybe some more Locomotion additions could be added?
)
Thank you for you interest.
I have updated a lot of files in the last two years using a more uniform lighting setup, added some trains (447 and some wagons) and some liveries (Catalonia, rare liveries found in old photos...).
I have created a combo file with sources and DAT files, so if some people needs to modify something in the future and I cannot do it, that modification or addition will be possible. This is the procedure to modify a file:
Get the Blend file and its sources (I hope that everything is included), open it with Blender (note: I am still using 2.49b for this purpose), modify the file (source textures are modified using GIMP), render the PNGs (I have tried to make it automatic since 2020), take the PNG files, rename them (rename the batch file .txt -> .bat), crop and reduce the palette (I am using the latest Irfanview, use the most suitable batch file for the vehicle), then copy the files in the "DAT making folder", edit the XML file with the path of the PNG files... and you have the new or updated vehicle. The scale that I am using is that standard coaches are 14 px wide and a 26.6m long coach (9000) is 90 px long in game, I have shortened the vehicles a 20% to allow a better look in tight curves, just like some Roco trains which are 1/100 in X axis.
These source files could be useful if you want to start a new set, also they can be used to create trains of Chile, Brazil or Iran, because these countries purchased used trains from Spain. The set contains trains from Portugal that are in common with Spain (for example, a 591 DMU, a Uerdinger Schienenbus in Portugal livery). I would like to create those all trains (Chile, Brazil, Iran...), but it is not easy, but the source allows people to made them.
If you only want to play, just copy and paste the files. The license of the DAT files are CC BY-SA, but screenshots can be distributed freely (of course
).
The "post 2020" DAT files for some trains could be not compatible with previous savegames, because I have tweaked the length of the trains.
Acknowledgements: Ben Robbins, because he created the template for OpenTTD that I have modified for Locomotion (I have modified it a lot: FFF white sun, different position for the sun, plain sky color...).
I use eMule because the file is very large (157 mb) due the sources and P2P allows me to keep the distribution untended, so if I cannot distribute the file for a certain reason, it could be distributed by other people. Of course this doesn't mean that I am going to abandon the set, I only mean that if I cannot work on it (fingers crossed), at least other people can continue the work.
Note that there are a lot of details to improve, for example, the position of effects (sparks, smoke...).
Just copy and paste the elink in a ED2K client (ie. eMule):
Code: Select all
ed2k://|file|ES_Spanish%20trains%20for%20locomotion_(DAT+sources)_CC%20BY-SA%20and%20GPL_v0,3a%20(trenes,Espa%C3%B1a,ferrocarril,railway,Chris%20Sawyer,renfe,adif).rar|179136802|4B14821DD24F0B76F8395C2FF89F3A93|h=L5JQPCGUORIVIWUUDURZGAKTET2H3VZ7|/
This is the complete Elink (not needed if you have used the previous elink):

Hola!
I'd really like to add this train set to my games. Unfortunately, the ed2k link from the first (updated) post is stuck at 0%... Are there any other ways to download it?
Gracias.
That post is 13 years old. But the author is still here, send him a PM.
Yes, I'm still here, my activity is very low since I have less free time.
