I think you have made a mistake. The textures looks as though they have been saved using the standard RBG +Alpha (8-bit). They should have really been saved as DXT textures to keep the quailty. I took the liberty of coverting your .ace file back to .tga and then using AceIT to covert back to .ace but this time as a DXT. I have included a screenshot showing the result on the right screen (with the 'View Low quality textures' option, ticked), and on the left screen showing what option I selected in AceIT to create the DXT.



The technique can work on other models. All the EHP2 stock works like this and I have done it on most of my 47s.

Other than that, the texture work was spot on. Any questions, just ask.

With permission from Carl I have uploaded a patch to correct the colour issue:

Sorry to spoil the party guys - but the MK3 is the wrong coach!

ATW use a TRSB (10249) not a TRUB on their Class57 loco-hauled Holyhead-Cardiff-Holyhead service.

This maybe so, but due to limitations of the models, this is the nearest you'll get

Carl, what about the one you used in this set?

Put the two together in Shape viewer and you will find the answer.

The models are different sizes. Also the EHP2 have much more detail, so putting that coach in would only make it look out of place.

Also you need to remove the bit after 'CUTHERE' on your link, allows people to log in as you.
