Go to where it says "11. Scarica" then where is says "Versione stabile: release 4.1 ( eseguibile o sorgenti)." eseguibile means exicutable, so just click on the word and it will start to download.

Got it! Thanks Kris.

Or click on the 'English' button, and scroll down to Download.

Thanks

That would be even easier, as long as you don't click on the Download link in the left hand column before you click on 'English'

At least the author realized there could be problems over copyright, see the readme file:

2. What is NOT this for?

You MUST NOT use this program if the 3d shape isn't yours and you haven't obtained author's permission to do it. Please, respect copyrights!

Hi Everyone,

This is a friendly note from the moderators. The ability to convert content from MSTS is very exciting. In the past there have been issues with copyright and people taking credit for work where they are not the author. We are not suggesting any of you are doing anything wrong but we wish to emphasise that members must obtain permission from the original author.

We also strongly recommend that as and when any converted MSTS models get uploaded to UKTS that the original author is given appropriate credit and the it is clear what permissions the original author granted you. In the long run it makes things a lot easier and avoids files being removed from the server at a later date.

Thank you all for your consideration and for respecting other peoples work.

A positive example from me. I've adapting 2 models from MSTS to RW and I got permission from the authors. I used Shapeconvert and both models are also here on UKTSM.

Great work Vlado a perfect example. Have you uploaded them to UKTS (the RW versions) already?

Yes, I did, a long time ago. These are two main assets, but there are some variations.

File ID: 21408
File ID: 21435

P.S. I don't know the code for showing these IDs

Hi vlado

If you type - uktsfile 21408 - and put it in square brackets you get this -

JZ 11-061 [3199544 bytes] - JZ 11-061 ver. 0.9.1.zip File ID: 21408 Date: 08 Aug 2009 - 795 Downloads

and for uktsfile 21435 you get

EMU 6111 [8057453 bytes] - EMU 6111.zip File ID: 21435 Date: 21 Jun 2009 - 969 Downloads

The download numbers shown here are a lot less than on the library page itself, so I am not sure what is going on there.

Thank you

There were some really high quality steam locomotives near the end of my time with MSTS. I hope that some of these will be converted to RW's one day as some great freeware:

Sorry to flood this topic with these!! But if some of these loco's were converted to RW's, I volunteer to provide sounds!!

Anf this one was always a favourite of mine because of the amazing inside motion that at the time was new to me!

I've included in the above list just some personal favourites that I miss since I lost my personal MSTS installation, which had loads of custom sounds and mods! And I've included some obvious gaps in the current RW locomotive fleet. I'm sure there are many diesels too. But I'm a steam man!!
