USA Pics

Download the new F7 in AT&SF, it works in 09 but the "A" gives a texture error and the back two steps need a fix(A only B is OK). I see only one fan working out of five, is this the same in 04/06? Also mars light not working. Other than the above a fine model.

what kind of texture error? i probably missed this because it is normal for it to have an error flag in 06 due to cmp being stupid. oh, null.tga does not have a texture.txt file, this is part of the light. in 09 this should show no errors but in 06 you will always have the error flag, nothing can be done about it.

what steps 'need a fix' what does that mean?

it is normal for only one fan to come on when you are idling the locomotive. the others will activate when you heat it up enough, and of course the larger one will activate once the dynamic brakes are on. contrary to popular belief in the sim and modeling circles where all fans are on all the time, the real thing works this way too. ;)

the mars light should work when you press 1 on the keypad.

WCL. That is a pretty nice scheme. I should be able to do it, but I need you do to me a favor it you can. Would you be able to get me a pic of the logo on the front and the logo on the rear side.

By the way, mine give me an error in 09. I don't care about the error because it doesn't appear to do anything.

yes it appears to be a missing texture.txt file for the null.tga texture. null goes on a really tiny square that the light corona is attached to. you would be lucky to ever see it.

Let me know if these will work:







It will for sure beat this old set

Since the government came out with the National Rail Passenger Association Act; all interstate passenger rail is now run by Amtrak. to help make everything look more uniformed Amtrak repainted their F7 units they acquired from the takeover.

(I'm not done painting the B unit; and the A's #s)

Ah, the late Reading scheme. That is a pretty nice pic, though I am not a huge fan of that particular scheme, though once it gets weathered and darkened it doesn't look that bad. No offense to CincySouthernRwy, but his Reading stuff is a little on the bright side, something that I had to tweak to get right with my stuff. Which reminds me, I have to upload my tweaked GP9M. The one that I have on the DLS isn't dark enough, but I keep forgetting to update it. That and the reskinned lights for the U30C are the only thing that has made it to the DLS so far. My SW1500 reskin and my U30C reskin are still awaiting processing. (Is this normal?)



I do have to agree that your screenshots are getting better.


Edit: Sorry for the double post. Now can someone answer me as to why my replies are bumping at the top of the page, rather than where they should be?

Just a few more things have to be done to mine. Gotta find the part to make the headlight black and change the handel bar colors and I'll be done with the A unit then I'll go the B unit.:)

Cheers,
