After I saved my Trainz route which roughly runs about 50mls (with mostly tracks, some buildings, roads, trees and signals), I clicked the "Export to CDP" option. When this happened and it went onto my Desktop, I put it into a folder. However, the route .cdp only reads at 19.3mb. Is this normal...

I heard that it takes 2.5 baseboards to make a mile on a Trainz route. Anybody have an idea as to how many baseboards would be used for 92 acres? Thanks. - RR70

This is not a Searchlight signal nor is it a Tri-lite nor a Vader signal. Anybody know what kind this is and if this style of signal is on the DLS? - RR70

Long gone are the days of the SPSF Kodachrome Paintscheme with the red locomotives that had black tops, yellow cabs/rear and silver trucks with black fuel tanks. We all know the merger wasn't approved. I was working on bringing about a new paintscheme for a fictional Class 1 railroad that...

I found silver trucks for my GP38-2, but they're too new or a bit too bright. Does anyone know if there's any silver trucks that are less bright and a but more dull? What kinds of keywords should I put into the search box on the DLS because I type "Silver Trucks" and all I got were silver trucks...

In the past when I submitted assets for the DLS it only took a few hours to go from the Un-Processed stage to the Preview stage for me to then Approve or not. I submitted 2 assets yesterday evening, checked the status today and found that they are still Un-Processed. Something amiss there or...

ALL of my releases onto the DLS have been given permission by their original authors to be reskinned and released, especially Dave Snow's assets since he gave general consent for his products to be reskinned. I try to make a point of stating the original content creator in the Config File. If I...

I made a fictional railroad that went by one name in 1988 for my HO scale trains. I wrote a fictional history aka backstory on the company to say that it had existed since 1888 which went under a different name until 1970. After that it went under another title until 2023 when I decided to have...

They look like Bulkhead Flats, but I never saw the verticle rack design before. Anybody know the specific name or keywords? - RR70

I have an undec HiCube 60ft boxcar that has less than 6 digits and I'm aiming for 6 digit capacity. How do I go about doing this adjustment? If it's not a simple process in the Config File, what's the step by step process? Thanks. - RR70

I have an undec GP-15 that has 3 digit capacity instead of 4 digits (what we see on the cab sides and number boards). I can't view the GP-15 (that has 4 digit capacity) in my Gimp because it can't appear for some reason. So as for the 3 digit GP-15, do I have to change something in the Config...

In Dave Snow's undec locomotives which I clone for reskinning, in the folder that contains the loco art, couplers, etc, there's one tga art that contains the brake wheel. Yet I don't see it on the unit itself after the loco is reskinned, committed and put on a route for testing. How do I add the...

I'm working on a rail line underpass where I have a southbound single track cross under an eastbound track. I want to have a tunnel go through the ground like a "rat-hole" underpass to the eastbound line. But when I tried to put several different tunnels through the ground, the ground got into...

Trilite signals, Searchlight signals, Vaders etc. How can I reskin those assets? Is it even possible? I checked one asset after coming it and found no map art of the signal. - RR70

Jointed Rail should add these to their roster of signals since they're out there. Would be really cool if they did. - RR70 https://i.imgur.com/Pffrm52.jpg https://i.imgur.com/8DOmHDp.jpg

Here is a recent message I received from one Trainz user which reads: "Not sure if it is me or what. I can see all your stuff on the web site, but cant see most of them in content manager. the stuff you uploaded yeaterday, only able to see and down load a couple boxcars. had same problem...

Dave Snow has undec Tier 4 AC4400's and EMD SD70ACE units out there on the DLS. No Mac locos. Any 3rd Party websites that you know of that have undec SD70 Macs and/or SD9043 Mac locos? Could sure use some for my fleet to then upload to the DLS. Thanks. - RR70

Where can I look for the stock that goes onto the Wellcars and other related cars for IMS hauling? I want to reskin the stock that goes on the cars - not the flat cars themselves. What keywords and/or Kuid numbers should I look for on the DLS? Did Dave make the crates that go on the Wellcars...

I thought I read somewhere on this forum that there is someone who can switch a 3 digit loco to a 4 digit loco. Could you PM me when possible? I have a GP15 that has only a 3 digit capacity and need it to be put on 4 digits. Unless you can tell me how to do that myself. Then that will save me...

I'm working on reskinning some of Dave's loco assets and I keep seeing a Reflection.tga. Is that for the mirrors, or for the paint on the units in how they reflect light? - RR70
