New AP air-con Mk2 pack

[Drogba11CFC]

To be honest, AP36 has been already updated also with the 91, only AP37 is still with the all-HST services.

The WCML-North scenario packs still use all-HST services, I think? And the one for JT's northern ECML

Well, you wouldn't get 91s on the Scottish ECML anyway. There's the small matter of no OHLE.

I've managed to swap 91s in with RW-Tools with minimal trouble.

Hi all,

Is it possible to increase the interior sound levels at all? From what I remember of the Virgin mk2s, the brakes and general noise seemed quite a bit louder.

Also, are the coaches supposed to be empty?

Thanks.

Now you're just being nit-picky....

I believe by JTs northern ECML means Newcastle to Edinburgh, rather than the route to Dundee.

As AP have not done a scenario pack for that route I don't think there is much to change.

Yes I wondered about both of these as well. Also in additional on the old DT Mk2´s when you applied the brakes you heard them rub both internally and externally which is a quite noticeable feature of the Mk2´s, the new coaches though I can´t seem to pick that up. Is this correct or do I need to tweak something?

should all scenario packs that have been updated use the new mk2 sets ? for example ap38, class 50 scenario to me it looks like it still uses default mk2's ? i think i have updated, downloaded everything i needed to.

The AP change log indicates all the updates that happen to the various packs direct link & according to that AP38 has indeed been updated.
For future reference the change log link can be found at the bottom on the main store page

It seems the Mk2E coach pack has been discontinued

I'd guess the easiest thing would be to simply bundle it with the new pack? Also, if you had it on Steam it should still be installed when doing a full reinstall from Steam.

I don't think you could have purchased the Mk2E Coach pack from Steam - only DT and later AP.
But if purchased from AP you can still download another copy.

You have purchased the new coaches to work in the scenarios?

The DT Mk2 pack definately was sold through Steam, that's where I got mine from.

Not correct Peter - I can't remember what it was with, but these suddenly downloaded for me when I purchased another item of DLC.

They aren't available any longer but they certainly used to be.

Why remove the Mk2E? Still useable surely, they didn't cease to exist purely because the F appeared! Rhetorical question, not having a bash at anyone, I don't want the usual suspects hanging and quartering me!
