Following half a year of solid graft, it brings me great pleasure to finally be able to share some of these with you. Please bear in mind, these are work in progress.
Duncan, it's looking incredible already! Can't wait for the finished item, it'll be a day 1 purchase from me
About time you finished what you started way back when HST's desperately need love and attention and better representation in TSC, even the AP EP was disappointing in the interior looks department, I still use your cab enhancement till this day. As Rob said a detailed HST is a day one purchase from me! GG's
This looks really good. The HST is my favourite train both in real life and TSC, so I‘ll be happy to get this when it’s out.
Don't try to sell it cheap. Quality work is worth paying for, and you deserve to have this be worth the huge amount of time it has taken you. Having said that.. work faster damn it!
Exactly this. No doubt people will moan it’s payware and usual names on here but this looks just fantastic and with Duncan’s current payware offerings of plant you can guarantee this will have outstanding value for money
Pretty well I'd say. Duncan updated his GST Facebook page cover photo with this 11hrs ago (at time of posting)...
Here's a couple of shots I haven't posted anywhere else, sorry I've been quiet lately guys, just so busy.
Holy poo!! This is exceeds AP quality if you ask me. This is epic! Definite instant buy from me Duncan. Any plans for a MTU and a Valenta version in the pipeline? I'd buy all three. The second this is released... I'm buying it.
Same. Absolutely adore the VP185s from the countless times I've travelled on them. I haven't been able to drive the default AP EP after seeing this is coming.
Can´t wait for scripting... Modeling is one thing, simulation is another. I hope it will be at least as good as the modeling. So far it looks briliant.
Same here. I've been avoiding it. Now I've seen these, I just can't. I hope there's a MTU version in the pipeline for some LNER ECML action.
I think it'll be streamed once more prior to release on Al's twitch stream. I want to save all the goodness for you guys so I've been quite minimal with screen shots and the like.
Now we are talking. Build this to completion Dunk and you'll make lot's of dough alright Then after that classes 331/195, please They can't stop us dreaming
Someone needs to. AP have no interest in it... apparently they are too boring. Personally, I agree, they are, but they're also a thing, and modern scenarios in the north are impossible without them if you want them to be accurate. Even just a semi-reasonable AI version would go a long way to solving the issue.
Nice! Replacement cabs, why didn't somebody think of this before? A lot of locomotives could use a decent, more detailed cab. But is should provide a whole new experience, that includes upgraded in cab sounds and scripting as well.
dunkrez Thank you so much for your time and efforts in producing this superb, immersion increasing, quality cab for us TSC HST fanatics, it really is one stunning piece of work, congratulations on what is an absolutely amazing update to the iconic Class 43 HST.
Thank you mate, thank you very much indeed! You might like this: https://alanthomsonsim.com/downloads/midland-pullman-lsl-ats-gst-vp-185-cab-patch/ Enjoy!
Just as a thank you really, this is included in the next update. Changelist below. Change list =========== VP185 update and thank you - Fixed AI lights - Fix DRA run down - Improved DRA visually - Improved DRA implementation - Hooked up driver/guard buzzer button on dash - Improved lamp test functionality - Enhanced shadow bake of inner cab shell - Improved Datacord button texturing - Adjusted parking brake button timing and functionality - Adjusted reported brake pressure on brake pipe gauge - Turned AWS isolation red light off (as default) - Headlight switch sound activation adjusted - DRA switch sound added - Added array EMR and EMT livery (with buffers) support to standard VP185 cab (optional patch) - Added MTU ATP cab with GSM-R and TPWS - Plus one more surprise Thank you so much
Not yet, but closer. The pack is being updated to include: VP185 Cab VP185 Cab in Grey VP185 Cab in Nanking Blue MTU non ATP Cab (no DAS) MTU non ATP Cab (with DAS) MTU non ATP Cab (with Old Handset) MTU ATP Cab (with DAS)
Will these be automatically selected depending on which livery you choose? Is that blue LED clock functional? This looks amazing. I can't wait.
- Each cab will be applied to the correct set (some may involve free patches, but AP have very generously given the green light for ATS & GST to support the upcoming HST 2.0) - The blue clock is indeed functional I'd go faster (like 8 times faster), but these bakes take time on my once grand but now ageing dev kit. Eventually, I'll be able to upgrade my dev PC
