Re: Charity Phorum Peninsula
I wish people would stop complaining about no cab views or how much they paid . The route and the locos was done for charity.

Re: Charity Phorum Peninsula
Thanks for the warning Derek.
I have the WORST luck! Derek and his picking the unique rolling stock to model.
So I started reskinning the SW1500 and I wanted to do New Jersey Transit SW1500 #502 (Old Pup) as it holds some historic value as it was the last SW1500 in revenue service for New Jersey transit. It was retired from revenue service a few years ago and given to NJT Riverline as a maintenance locomotive. The problem is Derek (shakes angry fist!) picked one of the SW1500's with the front marker lights ripped out w/ the offset front headlight!
UP did use these but are still not very common. 
P.S. Am I stuck with 4 digit numbers? 3 digits don't work and I can't find a character to create a blank space so this can just be renumbered 502.

Just downloaded it, and I'm looking forward to having a go of it. Well done to everyone who was involved in creating it.

Re: Charity Phorum Peninsula
I'm not sure if there is a blank space in the numbers, I did make it have 3 different font types tho.
I will look to add a blank later.

No need, I just had a quick look at SW1500_Digits and see it's really simple to add a new character. I'll just create my own blank now that I see it's a fairly simple process.
I was joking about the model. I like it! These things are so old almost no two are identical at this point, especially the bogies. Look at the one I'm painting it after (WIP thread). It has boxed out areas around the two caps towards the front, which is rare also.

Re: Charity Phorum Peninsula
Ok People I am fed up with reading about the negative commits. I am sure with time the things that are not there will be.
I think we should get a moderator to step in. This is for a good course and well worth the money

Re: Charity Phorum Peninsula
Just one more blurb. I love how the SW1500 was unwrapped! I nearly peed myself when I saw a texture named "WindowFrames" and another called "Railings"!
Yay, no more 60 minutes hunting and pecking where they are located in a giant texture of 500 other parts!

Re: Charity Phorum Peninsula
Man this add-on is great,,, The mixture of different gauge lines, the tramway - it all looks so real, you completely forget it is total fiction... A slight let-down that there are no cabs, but that can be lived with, this add-on is best played from the outside views anyway... And besides cabs may be added in a future update... Looking forward to seeing the tram(s).

As has been seen many times in the past, you cannot please everyone, no matter what you do.
If we think there is a need, we will step in, but I see no need at the moment.

Re: Charity Phorum Peninsula
A brilliant route, loads of new stuff to use in route building, a bargain for the price and all done for a good cause! Thanks to all those concerned.
