If this project died, I think I would die. :'(

OMG, dude chill the crap out seriously dang dude...... It's only been 2 days. People have lives and they do not involve updating you because you seem to lack patience like the rest of us. I swear kids these days think things should be done faster or be done when they want it done......

Whoa... I didn't mean it in a give me way. I said I'd die "if" it died in a humorous way. Sorry.:o
 
Truth?? I do think that's not at all the truth, I await this project quite happily, and can pre-occupy myself with other things, but I don't think it should be done quicker because I want it done quicker. If Ivan wants it done quicker, he can make it quicker.

Saying all kids are like that is like saying all Americans love donuts, just because Homer Simpson (one person) does

Some kids are gimme's but I'm not one of them. Nor is santafebuff, or Isaacg

First... I never said all kids. But most people are never patient anymore and they want things done faster and when that happens s%&t gets f%@k up. Just look at the Xbox.... So do not jump on my case.
Second..... Isaacg is not a kid last time I checked he is actually older than me so that I think you need to rethink.
Third..... I never said anything about you nor do I know you. But I do now and from what it looks like, it kinda seems like I really wish I don't know you.....

Who says all Americans don't like donuts? I am an american and am proud to like donuts.
 
This is... awkward? lol

For the record, I am a 'kid' still, at least according to Florida statues until I turn 18 on December 6(and a very anticipated day that is). BUT, I as far as being a 'kid' is concerned, I guess I'm not one of those types. I've already graduated high school(in college now), have a debit card, and a job(searching for one that is). The transition from childhood to adulthood is a very gradual process.

And... I'm American, and I don't particularly like doughnuts(supposed to be donuts, but donuts doesn't look right). Then again I'm not what you would consider to be an 'average American', especially where food habits are concerned. American, being a nationality(of the United States), is comprised of many ethnic groups from Chinese to Egyptian and Italian to Norwegian. Basing an idea(which, isn't entirely factual) that all Americans like donuts would be stereotyping based upon the iconic, or archetypal view of an American. Then again, stereotypes also hold a grain of truth in them, but its not smart to generalize based on stereotypes. I do like snacking on a jar of Greek Kalamata olives though :mop: :D

Moment of fame and monologue aside, I am very excited to see this new addition to Trainz come to life. I am sure that Ivan will bring out the best in these. I've been to the Windy City, and had the pleasant experience of taking a ride in these cars on the BNSF racetrack between Hinsdale and Union Station in Chicago. These (and Andi's R stock) are a nice surprise to see, I don't come on here often anymore, and Trainz hasn't been touched for a while(it now shares a pedestal with CivCity Rome), although I do play now and again. I will be looking forward to it's release. Gracias, Ivan :wave:
 
18 year old kids these days have no tolerance for the impatience of younger kids these days. But then again, how would an 18 year old know if they were ever different? :hehe:
 
Hey people. Thx for being interested in this project. My PC is ok and running. But there havnt been updates. I only need a photo for make the bogeys because i dont know how to make they and i havnt found any pics showing they. So if someone knows of a photo of the bogeys please contact me via MP. Thx for all

I did a Google Image search under: Nippon Sharyo bi-level car... and Many Metra Bi-level cars came up. This would be my best friend for looking for the axles or if someone else has a close up picture of them.
 
Those look similar to these on this bi-level car.
They are built ins and can be found in both TRS2004/TRS2006

They don't look exactly like that...
I never said they were, I said they were similar

Here are two screenshots of the bogies close up

Bogie 2 this has 4 springs between the wheels

Bogie 1 this has two springs one near each wheel

those trucks are SOOO outdated it is not even funny.

I could easily find something that better. Hell if someone would animate trucks for me, I could make something more detailed.
 
New start, better future

Hi everyone, i know that i havnt posted here since buffff :p. But i have restarted the project, see the pics below. I have done all this afternoon, isnt much but is a good start. The project isnt dead or stopped. It has been restarted and see the diference. Since my last work with the cabcar i have learned some and i will improve a lot my model. I am going very fast but i have now 10 projects (a c44, some rolling stock, some stations. another trains and a spanish subway line with their own trains and track-stationwork) So i ask for help to export, animate and all the possibilities that i can bring to the cabcar. Wait here for more updates







Greetings from spain
 
well......this........is..........AUSOME!!!!!! It looks like it's almost done. Maybe I can help. I maybe an expert of Gmax (help from yukonzoom), 3DS MAX (help from funforme3), and Blender. I'll help with u and all other projects. After all, I'm gonna restart working on my MP36.
 
Cant Wait.. hmmph all i need is a stupid FCT to get me a few MP36's and a couple of F40's - not a big fan of fan of F40's i had one catch on fire infront of me the other day while shooting pictures in Hinsdale (woo hoo) smelled like diesel fuel burning. But on the radio i heard "METRA 191 Looks to be a good fire for roasting marsh mellows on board your locomotive hold up at Congress Park MP 12.2 and evacuate the train" and i heard on 154.250 the local fire departments "Brook Field Fire Department respond to Congress Park for train on fire. Unknown size at this time". This rail line has funny things happen to it all the time like a container loaded with 85in Flat Screens almost falling over on to Gilbert Ave. or hearing "ATTENTION METRA COMMUTERS,YOUR TRAIN WILL BE 10-30 MINS LATE DUE TO TRACK MAINTENANCE" and of course the white ford F-350 comes and stops gets of the tracks and we WERE supposed to be in CUS a half an hour earlier when we arrived
