We had narrow railroads in our country.It's very sad that they were closed in 2002 :cry: .I can't make graphics,but i can post iformation about the trains and tracks and ofcourse pictures of them.

So i will begin:

We can't change the track size to narrow gauge without it not working at all well.
Are you intending that someone makes graphics of these?

I vill try to make the original tracks look like narrow by cuting their edges.

Lots of countries had narrow-gauge railways.

We are limited in adding new traintypes by the fact that there can only ever be 3 different types. So if we add a new one, we have to give one up. That's why, if you are using electrified rail, you don't have separate monorail and maglev.

I believe it would be possible to do a Baltic States set which had normal track, electrified track, and narrow-gauge track which looked narrower in place of the maglev. This seems sensible since maglev trains aren't allowed to run on the tracks of the others, as narrow-gauge trains aren't. (Yes, I know you can have a three-rail stretch that can do both, but we cannot duplicate that.)

So it would be possible to offer narrow gauge in place of maglev/monorail. I'm not sure how useful it would be but if you had a complete set of interesting equipment it might make sense.

There are many working narrow-gauge railways in Hungary...I think they could be useful in the Arctic climate, because there are many hills and mountains; and narrow-gauges are used in hilly areas (at least in Hungary).

to have narrow trains it would require changing graphic of tracks and graphic of trains

They actually look pretty good. The ballast could use some more variation, but otherwise they arn't half bad!

The only problem is that i can draw the rails in Tropic temperate and arctic climates but i am weak with locomotives
And i don't know how to create a new grf file

One question how do you set locomotives speed e.g. in the tempset.grf

I'm trying to make rails more realistic

According to your sig I have to say that I fully agree with you. You will surely get the first place in the TT forums history "fastest member becoming a tycoon".

And a lot of my first posts were in problems do you remember it
The name was Error mesage:error loading new graphics:file'''is not found
Returning to topic
What do you think about this
Note i changed monorails not standart rails

How much posts i've need to become a tycoon?

What about to leave monorails as they are and change maglevs becouse when you are not using tempset it has four locomotives and monorails have only two
Edit when not using sprites of monorail train in dbset

Because most people use UnifiedMaglev, and so don't distinguish between Mono and Maglev - there is one type with 6 vehicles

Without the patch there where four maglevs and now there is only one
My question is:is it posible to recover other four?
Six i only see one and its transrapid

Those were not replaced by the patch, but by the DBset.
