Thanks - that could well be useful
Glad I was able to help. I used an event Begin Play in the RVV event Graph with the same nodes as you and promote the Anim Instance Return Value...
As you may have seen elsewhere I successfully managed to cook my custom GWR locomotive on 18th January including a simple scenario and the pak...
I was struggling to attach an image to the message I sent earlier so thought I'd post it here. This image shows the Event graph for the Regulator...
Thank you. When I started I had serious doubts that I would ever be able to get a custom made locomotive working in the game.
As an amateur / hobbyist who has also been retired for many years I don't think I'm an ideal candidate to be a DTG third party partner . I cannot...
Thanks for your comments. It is interesting (and quite strange !) to see other people's photographs of the loco now that I have sent it out into...
Thanks.
Thanks for your comments. The route project has been going on for a long time (started way back in TSC days) and I am slowly rebuilding it in TSW...
UPDATE It seems you won't have to wait as it has already been released on the Train Sim Community website. I was surprised to see there is even a...
Thank you both for your kind words. I have submitted the pak. file to TSC for approval and hope it will be released in a few days. I will post an...
I have put this to one side for the moment and plan to submit the last working pak. file to TSC for release as a beta version freeware mod. I may...
If you look at my GWR Pannier Tank locomotive thread and go to page 2 there is a message from rob#3036 on 4th April 2025 which includes his...
I tried cooking my route (even tough it's not really ready) and it failed due to 1000 errors a lot of which were long file names. The Mod Manager...
APOLOGIES I think my enthusiasm may have got the better of me. This occurs on other routes as well so I guess the Scenario Failure could be...
While I was preparing the screen shots for classthrash on the Mod Manager thread I found a clue to the culprit. As you will see from the attached...
UPDATE Thank you classthrash for requesting a screenshot otherwise I wouldn't have spotted that. Checked again and it seems that everything is...
As promised earlier I have copied the pak. file into the game, started the scenario (one of my own included in the pak file) and taken screenshot...
Thanks to both of you (pwilson79 and Matt Higgins) for the support and encouragement. Scenarios failing after 3 minutes seems a very odd, very...
Thank you for your reply. Firstly I have cleared the Mod Staging folder and the Saved folder for my plug in. (I have previously deleted the mod...
Since Tuesday I have been trying to get cooking to work using the Mod Manager but whatever I try my scenarios fail after 3+ minutes (even if just...
Is anyone else having problems with Cooking since the recent Editor update ?. On 18th Jan I successfully cooked and packed my GWR steam loco...
(ANOTHER) UPDATE I tried removing the scenarios (after backup) and deleted all files relating to cooking including the saved mod json file. I also...
UPDATE The old pak. file (from 18th January) works fine in TSW6 and the one scenario included can be played without any sudden failures. The...
That's an interesting question. Since the latest update to the Editor I am having problems getting a new scenario I created to work in the...
Thanks for your encouragement. I have been studying Autotrailers and may make Number 13 (diagram F) which was allocated to the Calne Branch from...
Sorry you didn't have any luck. I don't understand why it is looking for a VHID in the "driveable RVM". My RVM doesn't have any VHID's as they are...
Assume you have a Driver's environment in your RVM and that you have a socket "Seat_Driver" in the skeletal mesh of your Cab to attach the...
Thanks for your support. I think I have nearly done as much as I can on this loco so hopefully I will release it as a mod. in the near future and...
Thanks for your reply. I tend to look at all my hobby projects as a challenge for me to learn how to turn my original idea into reality and I can...
One of the contributors who has responded to my last you tube video has pointed out that I have the Driver's Brake Valve wrongly orientated...
I have certainly been thinking about this and would probably do it as a part by part thing dealing with each of the elements in turn (RVV, RVM ,...
thank you for the advice. I had checked up on the Severn Valley route being released by "greggygran" and found my way to the Train Sim Community...
Apologies if I misunderstood. Thanks again for your interest in the project.
Apologies for not thanking you earlier and for your earlier encouragement to keep at it. You were right that I did finally over come that problem.
I don't know if this is relevant but when I was making my loco I had to add (Camera) Transition Modifiers to the RVV to get the ability to climb...
Thanks, as always, for your support and encouragement. (See my post above for thoughts on third party partners.) I have read part one of your...
Thanks for your support although I have to say I am some way away from being able to offer a complete realistic GWR steam era route. Having...
SUCCESS ! ! Rebuilding seat sockets on the RVV worked in a test scenario on the West Somerset Railway. I then cleared everything out of the mod...
Thanks for the input - I think you are absolutely right that the computer/game is unable to decide where to spawn the player at the start. My...
It can get demoralising at times. I thought I'd found the answer in the RVD file where the cached presets did not match the ones in every other...
Thanks for the encouragement. At one time I thought it might not be possible to get as far as I have so hopefully I will find a way to get past...
FURTHER UPDATE I tried setting up a Scenario with a DTG loco (4f) in one Platform at Minehead (as the Player controlled loco) and a second...
Thanks for your helpful suggestion. I do have the SM collision on the loco. Having given this some more thought I remember that I've had this...
UPDATE I rebuilt the RVD file and forced it to recalculate data which clarified a few things. I then recooked and the pak file was bigger than...
Thanks rob#3036 for the helpful information. I will need to check that if I continue to have problems. Meanwhile I have managed to cook and pak...
Thanks for your continued encouragement. Thanks for the encouragement. Hopefully I will be able to report some progress in the near future....
Congratulations - it is very pleasant to get something actually working after a long period of trial and error. I'm sure it would be very...
It is some time since I did an update on the loco and I have made a lot of progress with the brakes in Simugraph and the loco is now fully...
