When is much, too much?

Post by deltic009 »

So, with the aid of RW_Tools, I have found that I have 334 mk1 coaches installed, from four providers on my install of TS2014 - which is about 10% of every rolling stock asset that I have.

Seriously though why do every man and his dog seem to feel it necessary to make a set of mk1 coaches? alright they may look better than the previous version or include a variant that other packs don't but on the whole it seems to me to be nothing more than trying to 1 up everyone Else's version and all it really achieves is to clutter up peoples installs with copy's of the same thing over and over again. This is all just my opinion of course but could the effort used in producing these duplicate sets of coaches not instead be used to build some rolling stock we do not already have umpteen different versions of? I in no way claim to be a business or 3d modelling expert and also apologize if i have offended anyone or missed something that would explain this

Sounds like you have the freeware packs installed which has probably bloated the the amount of MK1s by a considerable margin. I've got mk1s going back to RW2 and I'm quite sure I don't have that many by this point and I believe I had most of the commerical versions available from the various different DLCs. :o

Sounds about right actually. There were what, some two dozen plus variants of the Mk1, counting non-passenger types? Add a half dozen liveries, several different providers, the freeware makeovers and of course the on-going quadruplication of the more popular varieties that come bundled with every other DLC from RSC and there we have it.

In other news, still no Mk2 DBSO...
