TOPSIG iPortaling

Hello Everyone,

Charles34 and I did some testing tonight with non default consist and found we could send a non default consist through iPortal. Something I had heard was not posable before, which should make it easier for us to select and set cars for the upcoming iPortal sessions.

Yep, I have been sending myself random none consist cars, as long as both installs have the equipment it should work.

Was actually refering to thea non default load in a train car. we added stuff that was not in the car's default product list and then sent it through the iPortal to see if the other person would recieve it. so far we have been sucsessful.

Ah... that is good to know.
 
I'm getting my industries and everything ready. I should have a list out today sometime.

trainsim1995,

Don't forget I need your equipment list (kuid numbers and names) 4 engines and freight 6 cars. You can also include passenger equipment up to 10 pieces including engines. And third make a wish list for future updates . This list need not be everything you are going to use just the equipment you want to exchange with the rest of the group. I will be making consists (iPortal*.cdp) for everyone to load so you have the equipment that will be exchanged. I will also be making a generic consist of equipment not road specific.
 
Just to help I've added some more INDs to my route to give people a place to send there product to or where
to get it from.

Well, when GN1996 and I originally tested this back when the idea of multiplayer/iportaling had just started, we found that the cars would stay loaded like you said. However, if it is not loaded when sent to another player, the setting (added product) is removed from the car. Unless that was changed in SP1 or one of the hotfixes, but I would bet that its the same as 49922.

that is something that we would have to check yes, but you may be right as far as that goes
 
OK guys we are only a week away from our first iPortal session. If you have not already submitted your equipment list please do so. Also I need kuids and car names!

1) Up to 10 freight cars
2) Up to 4 freight locos
3) Up to 2 cabooses
4) Up to 8 passenger cars
5) Up to 2 passenger locos

I will also have a generic consist for none represented road cars, private owners and cars that more that one person requested.

Last minute submissions run the risk of not making it into the session.
 
ok here is my final industrial list.

Produce:
-lumber - (built-in) - 10 cars
-woodchip - (built-in) - 10 cars
-Automobile (invisible) - (built-in) - 16 cars
-40ft Trailer 2 - (built-in) - 10 cars
-crude oil - (built-in) - 12 cars

Crap... it looks like my iPortal's are broken and so far I have not been able to fix it or gotten an answer from N3V (surprise surprise) :'( Hopefully I will be able to remedy it before this weekend as I am looking forward to the op session.

Looks like you did the SP1, I got the same problem.

OK the consist are posted on google docs.

[Original URL removed]

Let me know if you have trouble downloading.

Load the CDP and place your consist. You may want to look at the generic consist also just in case one of the cars you wanted are there. The rest you just need for interchange

Ken

Edit: A few assets need to be fixed (surprise surprise).
1) DRGW SD50 replacement CDP in Team speak if you want the fixed version
2) GG1 Tuscan needs gg1 kuid:-13:139 to work. If you do not have it download it from the DLC
3) National type b -> kuid2:58422:50126:1 need config.txt fixed
anim "anim.kin" has extra spaces in it, remove the spaces and commit
4) MWFood -> kuid2:30671:9021091:1 needs thumbnail name fixed. Thumbnail is there.

Only problem I have are those ugly SD40's in my consist. Im only using this EMD SD40-2 CSX YN2 <kuid:473973:100523> as it is higher quality and has auto running numbers.

You gave me this one "CSX SD40-2 <KUID:473973:100523>", I probably went by the name and did not double check the kuid so will do an update soon. V2 here we come...

Edit: I have changed the iPortal consists and also update the CSX one. They are now separate so I can apply fixes and updates easier.

Let me know if there are any problems

I'm not quite sure how to download the new updates as the link takes me to a page where all of the files are shown. When I click on one of the files, nothing downloads. Is there some sort of special secret to getting these files?

On a more related note, I'm looking forward to the first session! Hopefully all goes well and no mishaps occur. Jib, are you going to set up your Teamspeak server for use or should we just use iTrainz chat?

On a more related note, I'm looking forward to the first session! I will be checking my commodity list to see if there are any similar to that of others, and then I will use the commodity the other person has listed. The purpose of that is to get more commodities moving around.

When you click on one of the CDP's it should display a page that displays "no preview". In the lower right corner you should see "download open" buttons. You can click on either one to get the files.

Let me know

Well I am still having problems with my iPortal on this user ID. Sometimes it works and sometimes it does not so I may or may not be able to connect this coming weekend for our session :'(
 
Looks like I am in buisness, tested my iPortals last night and this morning and they are working. Hopefully it stays that way.

What time tomorrow are we going to start JIb228?
