CPH Rail Motor Problems

[gothmanghost]

I downloaded the NSW CPH rail motors and have two problems, given to me by my dad:

1. The engine sound isn't right.
2. They can't be loaded with passengers.

He told me that the engine sound is like the 420 class, as these had the same engine in them.

I have the 420's installed already.

Would it be a simple matter to change the asset or should i tell the person who created it about changing it?

It is entirely possible to change any loco's engine and sound with any other loco but you need to do this by editing the config. file. You firstly decide on which loco you want to take the engine and sound from and by looking at the respective config. files take note of the kuid's for each.
You then remove the respective kuid's from the config file of the loco you wish to change and replace them with the new numbers. Please note that the numbers will often appear more than once in a config. file and all need to be changed, otherwise the change will not happen. If needed then you will have to commit for the changes to be recognized by the program.

420 Class??? I know of the 620/720's Class rail motors, the 600 & 400 Class, but a 420 Class??? (I wonder if he means another class from one of those other states) You don't mean the 400 Class, number 420 do you?

the CPH's were not built with passenger enabling, so for that issue there is no problem.

Yes i meant the 400 class.

That's my bad not his, im not goood with all that stuff.

I've found how to change the horn and engine sounds, but found out that making it carry passengers was too long winded for me to try, maybe someone else could do this.

I don't see the point in having it if it doesn't carry passengers, as it is meant to, and even has the seats inside where they should go.

If it can't be remade, could someone do it for me?

What about using Pevs new attachment adding program, you don't have to make all the seats active just enough to make the car look occupied. You'll need to modify the config.txt.

The CPH is a mighty fine model, it was built at a time when the game was in trasition from UTC (Non Loadable wagons) to 2004 (loadable wagons) Creators needed to learn the method to make models that allowed them to load and unload plus driver commands needed to be devised to allow that to happen and it took time, Creating these models is not so straight forward just be grateful we have some Australian creators making models for us to use. You could always try contacting ad602000 and see if he would update and make them passenger enabled.

cheers
