Creation Sharing Gwr Pannier Tank Loco Update May 2026

Success so far.
I got the plug in working with the "old" RVV and RVM so the working version now includes placeable headcode lamps and the modified brake valve. I decided to go for a NON PROTOTYPICAL snap/return to Running position from Brakes Off.
If you drive in Brakes OFF the ejector is working full time and will soon run out of steam and trying to get the exact Running detent position was a bit tiresome.

I have just been trying to get the Firebox doors to open when the invisible fireman does his work and had to learn a lot about Unreal Animations (Flip/Flop nodes, layered blends per bone etc.etc.)

Next job is to test cook with that and the Custom HUD.
If that works I just need to change the Simugraph to correct the Safety Valves and the regulator size to get more realistic throttle response.

I will do another You Tube video of the "improvements" when I'm successful and then hopefully release it to TSC.

 

Great to see you persevering and continuing to learn and succeed! All the best for your continued progress.
