:udrool: Having just installed and began to use the full version of CONTZ (Contz 2 package) Wow!... I have been waiting for some decent empty and rendom loading wellcars from the year dot, ever since TRS 2004... and this lot is superb... you can mix your standard old '20 and 40' containers in a load with the CHN containers from Contz, that are and have been listed in the DLS as '20 and 40' containers respectively, and you can also use the old Auran containers of the same sizes 'listed as 20 and 40 'container'.One thing I might suggest is that we have a Pac Nat/NR/TTX pack exactly like CONTZ, and you would be forgiven for thinking that you were out at Dry Creek, North of Adelaide and saw exactly the same thing...
Why not have a reskinnable container set so that we could do our own CEVA, TOLL, BOOTH, MAC FIELD, LINFOX, ROYAL WOLF, SAFMARINE?*, etc, and also have a reskinnable empty wellcar to do up in PAC Nat or NR etc... or just have them plain blank like ones you see getting around... grey, dresden blue, etc... shabby, dirty, weathered, clean... (*Safmarine.... I think it is, but I couldn't quite read the name for the kind of scrpt it was painted in...)
There is also a stock feed grain company in Adelaide with a name like Kalari' and they have something similar to one of our Auran Tanktainers...Anyone local familiar with that name?... there's another tanktainer we could have....
However! Contz is what Auran has been missing all this time.... because the old Australian Containers in TRS 6 were very nondescript, but if you look in the config for those containers you will see the names that were supposed to have appeared on them like FCL, Macfield, and others, but most of those containers were just bland orange, white, blue, green things....
Contz walks all over them
Another thing I had tried to do was to reskin one of the containers in TRS 06, but not with terribly good results, with these names, or reskin some of the containers from the third party 20 and 40 ft packs, patch and layer, and put the names on, some worked well, some just turned an ugly white...
Auran!....Can we please now... have...An Australian version of Contz, with our own national rail, pacific nation and blank un named wellcars, similar to the CHN ones....
The old NR wellcars that were created in the DLS, no longer work, but the only other option there is to use the ones done by 'Bombers' and he has done a few of the other containers like Hans Maas, Arctic, China Shipping,g as well as Eggs, Manchester and Liverpool...(which admittedly are his own creations if you like having Eggs for Manchester and Liverpool) 'lol' ) however I prefer the mainline names like Maersk etc.
One thing that Bombers has managed to do is keep them at a very low size, in at around a couple hundred kbs, compared to the very heavy 1 MB originals). Bombers has also used a newer version of the same bogie that was created by Realsquash for these, but I have been unable to use the originals because of an obsolete bogey.
So when I saw the Contz packs, I was very eager to get them.
