Re: Dutch train set Reply #2 – March 12, 2009, 08:32:09 pm Cheers, it still needs ventilation on top, and 2 pantographs. Also, one drove around in a fancy red colour for raillion(german transporter). Quote Selected
Re: Dutch train set Reply #3 – March 12, 2009, 09:08:27 pm Added 2 panthographs, lights, just so people know where the loc is going and ventilation on the roof and front cab. Quote Selected
Re: Dutch train set Reply #4 – March 12, 2009, 09:20:55 pm What shall i say?More! Much more of those nice vehicles!By the way: Overheadlines are still needed. :/ Quote Selected
Re: Dutch train set Reply #5 – March 12, 2009, 09:26:04 pm It should become a set for the dutchies among us(and those looking for more ). I only got this view though, so this one isnt done yet. Needs more time.Is anyone working on those overhead powerlines? If not i could give it a try, any template i could use or guidlines i need to follow? Quote Selected
Re: Dutch train set Reply #6 – March 12, 2009, 11:23:07 pm I think the yellow/blue graphics of NS are perfect for this Pak!Especially those cute Dog-nose p****enger trains. Quote Selected
Re: Dutch train set Reply #7 – March 13, 2009, 08:48:02 am aah yes the famous old mat 54 trains(material 1954). Shame they dont drive anymore, and there replacements, the mat 64 are also about to disappear in 5 years. Fortunately there is a museum that always gets the old locomotives and keeps them in driving condition if possible. I went there this summer and i must say its fantastic to see all of the oldtimers still in there fullest glory. Indeed, the sharp-contrast blue/yellow are perfect for this pak ^_^ Quote Selected
Re: Dutch train set Reply #8 – March 13, 2009, 09:34:11 am I got it to compile and work in PAK 96. I think the locomotive is still a bit too big, but il try and remove the wheels first so that it will sit a notch lower. That should atleast improve the visuals a bit.EDIT: Ok, this definitely improved the view, along with modifiying the vehicles length. Although it might look bulky next to standard vehicles.

Re: Dutch train set Reply #9 – March 13, 2009, 03:32:29 pm Its done Its just a beta version, price/performance wise, and the graphics probably also need some tweaking. I could use some feedback/help with that. Quote Selected
Re: Dutch train set Reply #10 – March 13, 2009, 03:38:50 pm D a m n, i can't test it at work (right now) and on my girlfriends computer (today and weekend). I'll do on sunday evening.Actually there's nobody working on overheadlines. It's still on team to-do list. If i can help you, i could give you the source graphics from the tram overheadlines.And: I think, we need two-sided overheadlines. Quote Selected
Re: Dutch train set Reply #12 – March 13, 2009, 04:03:04 pm Well, here's the source. Please note that these powerlines were fitted for diagonal roads. The powerlines for the big railway needs "real" diagonal powerlines. I hope you unterstand what i mean. My english isn't the best. I'm curious about the next vehicles!

Re: Dutch train set Reply #14 – March 14, 2009, 12:01:31 pm Can you give me the source for the loco?Can I choose some pixels, when I think small thinks are wrong?I will put the loco in the Pakset. Quote Selected
Re: Dutch train set Reply #15 – March 14, 2009, 12:11:58 pm Sure! Would you like the photoshop file, or the source png? Il send the PNG first with the .dat i can always send the photoshop file later on .EDIT, here are the source files for all that want to mess with it: Quote Selected
Re: Dutch train set Reply #16 – March 14, 2009, 05:15:20 pm Thank you very much. I use GIMP and so is the png the best. Quote Selected
Re: Dutch train set Reply #17 – March 24, 2009, 07:46:16 pm I have tested your loco. The loco is to big. The other are (I think) 1/3 smaller. Quote Selected
Re: Dutch train set Reply #18 – March 24, 2009, 10:01:46 pm It indeed is rather big, I think i should try and redraw it a notch smaller. Quote Selected
