    Hello all, I understood there is no official SEPTA (some license from septa is not given) however i see videos of folks having sounds and skins. How can I get that .. i just want to show my kid a septa / free roam or quick drive to make him happy..

    Any help is appreciated

    thanks

    Most repaints are just that - they don't come with any scenarios, they leave that up to you.

    With the one I spotted on Railworks America
    http://www.railworksamerica.com/ind...s-64-and-multilevels&catid=18:engine-repaints
    It will install Septa liveried Bi-Level coaches in the North Jersey Coast NJ Transit folder

    You would either have to make a new scenario to use those coaches or swap them with the NJ transit stock

    749006 thank you sir. I tried to follow those instructions and i am totally lost.
    So here are the instructions

    ACS-64 and Multilevel repaint for SEPTA
    To install drop the following folders into the New York New Haven and North Jersey Coast mods. You will need to copy the GeoPcDx files from the original equipment.

    1.) Open the ACS-64 folder and move the SEPTA folder to RailVehicles\Electric\ACS-64\
    2.) Open the Multilevels folder and move the SEPTA folder to RailVehicles\Passengers\

    Am i editing the NewYorkNewHavenAssets.ap ? adding this content to it? (for 1)
    And C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\RailWorks\Assets\DTG\NorthJerseyCoast\NorthJerseyCoastAssets.ap -- NJCoastAssests.ap? (for 2)

    so following step1 - I opened the .ap and added SEPTA folder to ACS-64 inside .ap file (parallel to Default) and also got the GeoPcDx files and drop them in appropriate locations - engine and cabview) others are there


    So as you were saying I get to see them if I make a new scenario? and how do i change the original stock?

    Also where do I find RWTools and other things I need to make my own for fun

    Any info on how to make new scenarios/edit quick drives is appreciated.

    Don't change a *.ap file - Steam uses these to verify what you own and if it is a different size it will replace it.

    Go to RailWorks\Assets\DTG\NorthJerseyCoast\

    Using 7Zip right click on NorthJerseyCoastAssets.ap and chose Extract Here so it looks like this

    Now get the SEPTA Folder that you downloaded and place it in RailVehicles\Passengers\
    Then COPY the GeoPcDx files from the default folders to the SEPTA Folders
    And you should have something like this
