Cabview for USLW's Cn 3254?

[Amtrak72]

I got the CN 3254 from USLW, and everything is good....EXCEPT THE CABVIEW.

The cabview is a cab from a narrow gauge locomotive, and it doesn't fit 3254 at all. it looks weird when you switch from cabview to the outside view, and the locomotive is way bigger than what it looks like from the cab. Even the steam animations are out of place when you look at them from the cab.

By any chance is there a cab that is for CN 3254?

Use the Big Boy cab, it's better than nothing.

Nope, won't work, needs some kinda of scripting.

Ben's cabs will work fine with only a couple of changes to the CN 3254. You just need to add a script and class tag to the loco's config and copy and paste the 2 .gs files from one of Ben's locos that uses that cab into the CN 3254's folder. If the CN 3254 used a custom script it would be a lot more difficult but fortunately it doesn't.

If Ben's loco was set up to handle the steam exhaust cuff's thru the script file then you may need to edit the script and comment out 1 line or if you want to keep that feature then copy over the sounds folder and change the enginesound reference.

PS. the CN 3254 comes with the old style enginespec and enginesound. I assume the TSmac uses the new versions of these like TS9 thru 12 - if so the config should get edited to reference new ones.
