Lowell's Florida Trains
Lowell's Florida Trains
These are the trains from Lowell's Florida Gold400X scenario. There are 26 engines starting with the Mikado series and up.
They are contained in a simple 12 X 12 map. You can use this map to make your own scenario. You will be able to use the Terrain Editor from the game.
If you want to use the engines in your own map you have to copy the contents of the RRT_Trains_Clone400.XML into your own Trains.XML file. Also you have to copy the Train Names from RRT_Names_Clone400.XML into your RRT_Names.XML file and the Tenders from RRT_TrainCars.XML
There are seven compressed files to unpack:
The Trains1.ZIP thru Trains6.Zip these are FPK files and they should be placed in the C:\My Documents\My Games\Sid Meier's Railroads!\CustomAssets\ folder.
The contents of the UserMaps.ZIP should be placed in C:\My Documents\My Games\Sid Meier's Railroads!\UserMaps\ folder.
This is the first time that I tried to unscramble somebody else's FPK files, so any error is mine.
By the way Lowell did not compress his into an FPK. I had to do it in order to make the upload files smaller.
If you know how, you can unpack the FPK-s, it will take up considerably more room, but it is said that it will make the game's response faster.

EDIT
There is only one FPK file in the ZIP-s, that is Train1.FPK and that goes in the CustomAssets directory
Train2 through Train6 has the raw files only, so after unzipping Tran2 – Train6, please copy and paste the files (NOT THE DIRECTORY) into the CustomAssets directory. It will work; I’ve just tried it.
I am also uploading a revised UserMaps folder. (Rev 1_01) This should replace the old UserMaps folder. This will have the effect to be able to haul freight with your trains.

Re: Lowell's Florida Trains
Sorry about the delay....confusion, life in general and something about uploading slowed it down a bit. I had to break the two ZIPs down into six because I was having problems uploading. I plan on doing some testing to try and see what the problem might be.
And where did you get that MP3 song from??
And where did you get that MP3 song from??
I'm correct 97% of the time..... who cares about the other 4%....
Re: Lowell's Florida Trains
Thanks Snoopy. I am always glad to see that it's not me who is having trouble.
By the way I have the four Mikado trains also separately. I'll wait with it for a while how these will do.
They are a little over 6 MB.

Re: Lowell's Florida Trains
The music appears on Florida Gold with special permission. Please inform me if you use that music on any modded maps so I may tell you what is needed in your thread and credits. I should have caught this earlier.Jancsika wrote:Thanks Snoopy. I am always glad to see that it's not me who is having trouble.
