SD70ACe/AH-T4 Models?

Hullo.

Is anyone planning on releasing a T4 EMD SD70 model, or if they already have, could you point me towards it? I'd love to see one of these available to the Trainz community.

If you want a real nice piece, find the BNSF Patched SD60M (Triclops) by srs............it's a beautiful beast !!!







Great custom interior too !

I have that, but they're based on the pre-ES44 numbering system, so that kinda bugs me as the only SD60Ms I've ever seen have been in the 14 series, post ES44. But oh well, he can't please everyone.

Sir Railhead001,

As always, excellent tutelage, thank you very much, I went the SRS Site, made a Pay Pal Donation and downloaded both models, they are now temporarily residing in my Aussie Outback area.

I stuck them here for the particular spot as there is a smaller BNSF power GP38-2 parked 2 tracks away for comparison, and as you can see this Triclops is a heavy bit larger, and very nicely done.

They downloaded, installed, with no Faults.........Way to go Sir!

Update: forgot to mention they come with 3 different Skins for each model..........Clean to weathered look.......Nice Touch!

My Triclops has Yellow Flashing Throttle showing in Adv HUD display?????

Yes I know, I just try and help out where I can........I don't have the time or patience to make this stuff. You folks are the ones that really make a difference in my Trainz experience.......Am forever grateful, coming from Ipad Trainz2 originally..........

Hey while I'm at it, my I think my Try Cyclops Loco is running out of Fuel? :'( Found out by accident that I have to run them with the Adv Throttle, but when I haul a small consist I barely get out of the Yard after doing some small switching moves, and then the Adv HUD display shows a yellow flashing Throttle Sign, looks like my Loco is stalling out!!!!

:o Does that mean I'm out of Fuel, I tried to find ops notes on these guys in Asset Directory, :confused: but nothing there, do u you or anyone know what this means...........

Need a little help...........Thanks
 
Added commands you suggested.....

You should be able to use the instant load loco command on it if I remember correctly................

:wave: Morning Railhead001,

Thanks for advise, I went in and dropped in a Diesel Service spur, and I added instant local command, actually there was two of them, now I am test phase after using those commands in the yard where I picked it up.....I picked up a consist, and will run it,,,,,problem is, I don't know how to find out what Fuel is left, maybe there needs to be more commands added in the Config.txt file?

One thing I did notice, it wont show capability to load the loco with Fuel as commodity......I opened the Diesel Fuel site Property's and this Engine doesn't show in Vehicle List Page.........

;) I put some pics here for you to see, if this looks right?







 
Fuel seems ok for now.....Engine is separate problem, erractic running?

;) So I did add the Diesel Fuel facility to my Yard, and the instant commands, using them, I think it fills, problem is, there are no indicators to tell me what my Fuel level is, so I'm flying blind, also I think I have an odd engine problem, when I get to some 2% 2.5% grades it fouls out on power, so for the heck of it, I dropped a 8500Hp engine by Properties selection, that didn't work good, then I dropped in a default Diesel Loco Spec engine selection, and it seems to work.

Remember I just changed this in Locomotive Props available, I didn't mess with the Config.txt file at all.....This was done in Surveyor Mode......Then back into Driver or Quick Drive to see the results etc...


Decided I'm going to Email the sRs folks and find out if they have any manuals on this build, I've never had this kind of problem with Loco motives other than not knowing you needed to fuel some of them, this one however I think has 2 different issues......So at the moment it looks like the Fuel is solved....But if no avail, then I'll push the Delete Asset thingy and move on..........

I would install a Fuel controls and gauges, but that is way beyond my simple programming expertise at this time with Asset Fixing. I only know how to do some Color Shading (thanks to Railhead001) and Knuckle, Trucks, and some head lighting issues, beyond that,, I'm uneducated in this part of the arena..........

Thank you to all who helped me with your comments, as you can see, I Naive in this part of Trainz ops..........:o

Update, I got email today from Author of the Triclops Locomotive, he is going to retool the engine file, and is very concerned about the issues I had with it in T:ANE

....I'll post, when I hear something more, it's possible that sRs may also post an update?
