I had a similar idea for a map I'm working on, The Catskill Mountains. I may lower the prices of goods in addition to slowing the rate at which they're made, as well as exxagerate the price differences between engines. A Mogul may cost $100,000, while a Consolidation may cost $200,000. Upgrading tha...

Concerning the colors of trains
Every train I make is blue. That bums me out, sometimes. I mean, they look so cool in the roundhouse (except, of course, for the puke-green A1) but then I spend my hard earned cash on them and they show up in game with a fresh coat of blue paint. It's almost like false advertising. I've been dabblin...

Don't let it get you down, Snoopy... the way I see it, this game is a diamond in the rough. There's so much potential, and it could have been such a great game... But the maps are tiny (Playing football in the bathroom, someone once said), the routing is awkward, there aren't a lot of maps released ...

How to make a .fpk file
How do I make a .fpk file? I can open them up with Dragon Unpacker, but how can I make my own?

Thanks for the offer Choobacca, but I finished my boxcars before I saw it. I did the same thing as you did as far as making the hatches up top invisible and smoothing out the roof texture beneath it. I'm still not 100% satisfied with my modern boxcar yet. Was there any trick to making the taconite c...

I got it. :D I just worked it through bit by bit and it ended up working. First off, make sure that your .nif correctly references your new skins. To check this, copy the original (TGV) .nif, then change the internal references to your custom skin. Load up the game, and if the TGV uses your skin, th...

Don't they call that "I'm da Man now and my pride is this is making my head swell, and I think I'll step out a bit to get noticed more" :?: Or is it the new kid on the block (in the roundhouse) getting antsy and saying "Pick me, pick me, oo, oo, pick me!" I'll have to check out my single engine ver...

tried it again trees did show up appears you have to play somewhat aggressively don't mind that what exactly happens when you place the express passenger service lown the east coast? The express passenger line is just another victory condition, it gives you a few more points on your ending score. A...

Hey, Stormfather here, author of Manifest Destiny. Version 1.3, which should be out by the weekend, includes a whole slew of changes, including Canada and Mexico, another era, some new trains, and the biggest oversight of them all, Pittsburgh (with a steel related Victory condition to boot.) If you ...

I've never played RRT2 so I can't be of any help with your question. I learned how to play SMR with the demo map. Omega 552003 ported it over to the full version. I think it's a better map for learning than the Southwest, if you want to check it out, look for 'Demo map ported to retail' in the Mods ...

Not to familiar with those logos, but can you make it bigger and put the AMTRAK at the top edge with the rest clear? I was planning on making two versions of the skin. One would bear both the amtrak color scheme (the red wite and blue in the picture) and the AMTRAK markings on the front and sides. ...
