Is there any way at all that we can get access to the DTG random number generator tool in FD so that we can create formations of the same wagon...
I have taken a CL31 and then added a customised formation to it. FD let me do this but the master screen never showed the full image of the new...
Oh I can answer that already. It will do rubbish :) (as do most of my uploads). Perhaps I need to publicise myself a bit more.......and stop...
I'm sorry Alex but that was a very quick summary !!! I'm not sure that just saying "We assessing what we need to do to take FD from beta to full...
I don't disagree but I can't see how they could hook that up to Livery Editor (or Formation Manager come to that). But I'll ask.
These are BSOTs. In real-life they WERE brakes??? (see below) The 'artistic' bit is moving them from Scotland. SC9001 - Cowlairs | Mk 1 Open...
And here are a couple of BSOTs. As these are more specific, and have a bit more 'artistic licence', I suspect they will stay uniquely numbered....
I thought it might help if I threw in some screenshots. Here are the current versions of the Mk1s at Millers Dale. At present all coaches are...
That's interesting. I thought that might be the most tempting option. You get a 10 coach rake from 5 downloads (perhaps with a couple weathered)...
They might find magnets a more 'attractive' proposition :D (I'll get my coat).
Blooming heck. This is more complicated than I thought :) :) :) Option C means that each individual model (coach) has the same number of each...
But what if it was something that didn't need suspension or a formation? Perhaps it is this? :cool: [ATTACH]
Put a CL25 in it as well and I'd fork out £50. :cool:
They get your goat don't they ;)
Erm - That literally is option C ???? :|
I have some Mk1 coaches in Blue/Grey that I'm planning to upload to Creators Club shortly. I am currently unsure how to number these so I thought...
If DTG were to model the Derwent Valley Railway then we would get these beauties in game :) Rolling Stock – Misc – Derwent Valley Light Railway...
Well I think it's a great idea. They could call it 'Train Sim Console'.........or TSC for short. . . . Oh ;) :D
A few more shots (including one of an 'interesting' livery.......something that I didn't think we were supposed to see any more?). [ATTACH]...
More services added. Now just got to put a few 'delays' in en-route for interest. Should be out soon. :) [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Thanks for all the colour charts Tony. They have been very useful. Very very quick play with a Mk2 coach and have now ended up with this. Starting...
Finally got around to playing with your triple CL37s. Seen here on a test run from Lackenby :) (There's quite a few of your liveries in these...
Re the blues used on NI railways. These two pictures show that there were at least three types. (Call it dark, medium and light blue if you wish)....
Here's a quickly knocked-up Maroon one using your colour palette. (With an attempt at replicating the lower headlight clusters). Was the roof...
Just a few screenshots from scenario testing. Still a bit to do but getting there :) [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Had a quick play. (Note I have made little effort at correct colour matching and, also, have 'drawn' the curves in very simply just to see what...
Two addition questions from me. What are the plans, if any, to integrate Formation Designer with the Official Public Editor? Yes I know you can...
Agree with this. I can't seem to find any combination that would give a working 3 car AC unit (due to the need to have both pantograph and battery...
Spike was my Airedale terrier (great Yorkshire dog of which I saw none when I moved to Airedale). Yorks is a tip to North Yorkshire (where I now...
I don't mind having a go at a NR blue Hunslet 52 :) If I'm successful then it would be best if my colour choice matched yours. What blue have you...
You'll be pleased to know 8-car formations work well......even if you flip one of the 4-car units and have it running in 'reverse'. See below...
Right then, this is what I did to get a 4-car CL700. 1) Add New / Name new Formation / Formation Builder 2) Add Official / Key 700 in to the...
I think you're closer to winning the bin I'm afraid. Let me have a go. "Desirable" - (from the latin 'desire a bull') almost certainly means...
Bugger. I knew someone was going to ask this and now, when I have tried to recreate it I can't do it !!! :( Fortunately I've saved my previous...
Maybe DTG should go back to the beginning with the Class 01. Who knows, if we cross our fingers, we might even get the Wickham trolley and the...
What on earth is that wacky baccy livery? :D :D :D This is what the great "Suffolk" should look like. BR Class 47 47584 "County of Suffolk"...
Yes you can spawn locomotives downloaded from Creators Club.......................just not all of them :( Personally I don't have the TGV so I...
Come on Dave. I'm originally from Ipswich. Where is County of Suffolk? ;)
Your route is looking really good. It is always great to see WIP screenshots where you can see how the creator is actually putting things...
Do you have any examples? Only I can get many custom liveries in to the game (both my own and other creators)? The HSTs definitely don't work...
How have you found it? Is it what you expected? As a first Beta it is good fun and adds a completely new dimension to the game. I am familiar...
I'm guessing that Microsoft and Sony won't be happy allowing a very early beta to be added to one of 'their' games? However I don't know this and...
Fortunately the excellent freeware TEA tankers (available on the Hub) are recognised by Formation Designer. ;) For example. Creators Club - 100t...
This is the most important part of the whole process. There are now over 50 threads in this 'section' and each one deserves some sort of reply....
Will do Matt. I'll stop mucking about with my fake Sentinels and get this scenario finished asap. :) Mind you I have just 'made' a 4-car AC CL700...
Hmm I appear to have 3 different fake Tipplers now to go with my fake loco. (Note to self - must start finishing things off now rather than...
Ooh Ooh Ooh. I thought I'd give this challenge a go and, after about 8 failed attempts, ended up with this. A working 4 car CL700 climbing Lickey...
Crikey that all looks wonderful :D Well done and thanks, in advance, for your hard work and creativity.
You always have to spoil things by going over the top with your unreasonable demands :) Next you'll be telling us that you want the full route too...
Just curious. Does this work in the same way as the Liveries file? If so then does that mean that a Formations Manager, for creating back-ups and...
