Well, I can't recall if the cab, whistle and bell of the TrainzItalia Big Boy is an improvement or not, or even if it works in TRS2009, 'cause I don't have it installed on my 'puter at the moment (George, can you help out?), but I can assure you that the texturing and detailing are absolutely superb.

TrainzItalia also have a Challenger

are those "payware" locos? if so i cant get it i can only get "freeware". tell me if someone makes a freeware big boy/challenger. it would be nice.
 
It stinks that all the good locomotives out there are payware. :( Please ignore my post above.

Hi All: Yes there is a way to program it..Click on CM2, find the engine, right click on engine..then go to edit..right click explorer, right click con-fig file, change the Kuid no. to your choice..click on x upper right corner, it should say "Do want to save" Yes. Go back to edit, click on "Content creator" make sure it says the correct Kuid No's. Click the x, then should say "Con-fig file complete", then go back to edit, click on commit.. Hope you get it done..


Bob Cass:) :)
 
ok iv done all that but i cant open Content creator its the same error message content manager came up with wen i first got the game, "error has occurred content creator had to close do u want to tell Microsoft about this problem? [send] [don't send]" i pick don't send because they wont do eney thing about it.

Locomotive bells and whistles and other components are seperate and downloadable objects in trainz with their own kuid numbers. If you don't like the whistle on Bigboy, find one you do like being used by another loco for example and make note of its kuid number in that locos config file. Then open up Bigboy's config file as noted above and on the line that says "hornsound" delete the old kuid number that follows on the same line and insert the one you like. Save as described above.
 
is anyone remaking the union pacific 4000 class (big boy) because the big boy that comes with the game SUCKS, i mean the whistle STINKS and the cab is...tolerable and the bell too i guess, i hope someone is remaking it if so please send/post a link to the site/DL maker.
thank u for reading this.

To tell the creator of BIGBOY that after he spent 550 hours (approx) of his very valuable time creating this master piece "BigBoy" FOR FREE that his loco sucks, (or parts of his loco suck) is not the best way to possibly convince him to spend another 400 - 550 hours creating another superb loco like the Challenger (or something similar)...

PM me your address and I see if I can dig out a spare copy of Dale Carnegies book on; "How to Win Friends and Influence People" - http://www.dalecarnegie.com/golden_book.jsp


I'm sure once the creator spends another 100 - 200 hours sorting out what you don't like about his creation, well, I'm sure you will be the first person on his list to send/post a link too...

Freeware is freeware!!!!! YES IT'S ACTUALLY FREE !!!! If you don't like the free content, either start digging into your pocket or start learning how to create/modify content yourself... (then you maybe have the right to complain if everything isn't quite perfect).
Alternatively, spend the 200+ hours it takes to learn how to build a steam loco and start creating your own. Why? so that once it's finished, the _ossers can start picking holes in it...

Was there anything else?

Happy Trainzing...
Cheers, Mac...

I'm picking you are probably quite young & still serving your Trainz apprenticeship, so no problem. "The community forgives you". Please just write what you want to say on a piece of paper first, then check to see if it reads/sounds OK, then post it... (& don't be frighten to use the spell checker)...

We have to make sure that we don't upset any of the contents creators. Especially the ones that do it for "free", otherwise they might either stop creating for us, or start making their creations payware.
Happy Trainzing.
Cheers, Mac..

From the TrainzItalia site:

From memory there were/are two or three versions available. This is the dirtiest and, again from memory, is based upon this:

Misc_BigBoy.jpg


The other variants are cleaner.
