[New vehicles] Multiple unit extravaganza July 25, 2010, 11:54:36 pm To fill in some gaps in the 1980s and 1990s with respect to multiple units, I have produced graphics and .dat files for the following:Cl**** 150 (DMU)Cl**** 317 (EMU - overhead AC)Cl**** 455 (EMU - 3rd rail)Cl**** 456 (EMU - 3rd rail)The sources are available to download us (site down, do not visit) ]/Multiple_uint_extravaganza_2.zip]here. These units will be incorporated into the next release of Pak128.Britain-Ex for Simutrans-Experimental. Please note that the sources also contain alterations to existing .dat files, particularly the cl**** 153, 156 and 158, all of which are modified to be able to couple properly to the cl**** 150; bugs for coupling those units to each other are also fixed.I am also currently working on some older, pre-nationalisation suburban EMUs which should be of benefit to users of Simutrans-Experimental who may struggle to find appropriate units in the early years.

Re: [New vehicles] Multiple unit extravaganza Reply #4 – July 29, 2010, 08:43:10 pm Nice work with these graphics although I would say that the 456s look like they have a vertical front end in the side-on images when in reality they have quite a pronounced slope (much more so than the 319 which I guess you used as a base?).

Re: [New vehicles] Multiple unit extravaganza Reply #5 – July 29, 2010, 08:45:26 pm Ahh, yes, I did use the 319 as a base - I wasn't aware that they had a different rake at the cab end. How much more of an angle do you think that they need? Quote Selected
Re: [New vehicles] Multiple unit extravaganza Reply #6 – August 02, 2010, 02:50:10 pm Not too much - just enough to show it's not completely vertical. You may even be able to pixel edit the two views that matter and just remove one or two columns of pixels at the top. Granted, it's a rather subtle point though... Quote Selected
Re: [New vehicles] Multiple unit extravaganza Reply #7 – September 12, 2010, 05:20:00 pm I spotted a couple of bugs in the source here when I was getting them ready for loading into the standard release. In the 317 and 455, the rear driving vehicle dat points at the images for one of the middle vehicles. Quote Selected
