The Alabama & Southeastern RR WIP Thread (Large Screenies)

[Southern1581]

Just stay tuned for the next round next week.

 

[Southern1581]

Or we can start the next round now. If you guys can't find him this time I'm going to be insanely disappointed. So, where, in the good ol' main street scene, is Jimmy? Please circle your answers.

 

[AMTRAKwannabe]

I win!!!!

 

[Southern1581]

DING DING DING DING DING!!!!!!!!!! WINNER! I really should have hidden him better, but a game's a game. You'll receive a beta of the route at V6. You'll continue to receive betas at every V until the first release.

For those of you who didn't get the opportunity to win, fear not, eventually we will play Find Jimmy again.

I really should have hidden him better

At first I thought it was a billboard, then I zoomed out...

 

[Southern1581]

How did you think that the ultra conspicuous guy sitting on the roof of a building which has no access to said roof was a billboard???

 

[AMTRAKwannabe]

Zoom in, he looks flat...

 

[Southern1581]

He's wearing purple! He is obviously not a part of a billboard!

 

[AMTRAKwannabe]

Well either way I still won, and that is that.

 

[Southern1581]

Yes it is.

Fellow trainzers, it gives me great pride to inform you that the SD42-3 lives (granted it has the wrong bogies, but that's fixable)! I finally sorted out the last of the texture problems.

There are 3 runs to the SD42-3:
1st Run - Completed in 1988-1992 and 1999-2003, numbered 7105-7200
2nd Run - Completed in 2008-2013, numbered 4200-4299
3rd Run - In progress, worked on from 2013+, numbered 7207-7215 (plans are to make this series go to at least 7275)

Here is a pic of first run SD42-3 7150 in Railyard:

Beautiful isn't she? I'll do the other 2 runs soon, as well as 7176 (old scheme) 7203-7204 (Breast Cancer awareness units) and 7205-7206 (Down Syndrome awareness units). Look for more screenies of the A&SE's main workhorse soon! And also be on the lookout for the A&SE's 10 SD29T-3's, I have plans to make them too.

 

[AMTRAKwannabe]

You running all road numbers for one in standard scheme on one asset or multiple? If you add the following to the arn section you can run them all in one asset:
number_low "your #"
number_high "your #"
number_low_1 "your #"
number_high_1 "your #"
number_low_2 "your #"
number_high_2 "your #"
etc.

 

[Southern1581]

Didn't feel like it, plus I have a bit more control over it the way I did it, which is separately. All three runs are done now, seen here running through Oak Grove.

 

[bentrain14]

Which SD45 did you skin? Im wondering cause Im looking for an SD45 like that with the certain roof details to skin.

 

[Southern1581]

That's be the built in ATSF SD45.

 

[ns1997]

Wait how did you unlock it ?

 

[Southern1581]

The process is actually pretty simple but it took me about a month to figure it out. PM me.

 

[ns1997]

Ok sent one

 

[Southern1581]

For those of you who follow TNSR you know that we haven't had a release in a good bit of time. Either tonight or tomorrow, we'll be having a nice big release. We'll put out some hornsounds from NSguy, a pair of new enginesounds from me, as well as an update to my 645F sounds, we might put out a small bell pack me and NSguy put together, I might put out a few new hornsounds as well, and we might have more, I'll have to check in with the rest of the TNSR crew.

 

[AMTRAKwannabe]

[Southern1581]
