Re: Florida Gold Rebuild/Upgrade

FEC F9 A&B FEC-F series engine set 01 complete. I built this with the BB construction kit. The B unit was backwards from the kit...but that is no biggie, I just rotated it -90%. It looks okay and I must say those construction kits are well thought out. Thanks Snoopy, Bobby and others. I really like...

Re: Florida Gold Rebuild/Upgrade

Thought I might also mention that I am always testing the games saved game feature. When I return to a save point...I open up my MyGames/SidsRailRoads/Saves folder and click on the saved game links, right from the desktop. Plus I also test the Auto Save links in the same fashion. I simply click on t...

Re: Florida Gold Rebuild/Upgrade

Thanks. I am trying to stay as close to the real thing as I can get. I have rebuilt other cars for food, key lime pies and a couple others. There is a mix of standard and reefer cars, the larger size. I just ran a test scenario game play. The game ran smooth. I had no issues. I am doing my testing o...

Re: EMD SD70ACe

Very nice Rodea. I cannot wait to try out your new map. What size have you made your new map? The Island landscape looks like it will be a great map.

How about a couple more screenshots of the map as teasers. :D

Re: Florida Gold Rebuild/Upgrade

The Green SAL units came from these and a couple other photos. This green color scheme was used on F A&B units as well. One photo shows some sort of self powered Baggage car. http://CrimsonSun.cc/Green_SAL_08.jpg http://CrimsonSun.cc/Green_SAL_011.jpg If anyone else has any shots of SAL engines, pos...

Re: Florida Gold Rebuild/Upgrade

Thanks Karsten. The Orange Blossom Special E unit is almost complete…I might get the last of it done tonight or in the morning. Darn thing has some mean curves and stripes on that engine skin. I need to tone down the shininess of the passenger and mail rooftops on this green set. I made them from th...

Re: Florida Gold Rebuild/Upgrade

Just whipped-up this passenger and mail set to match the green Seaboard Air Line E set. I am sure this color scheme was not used...but it looks nice and matches the engines.

Re: Florida Gold Rebuild/Upgrade

Just about done with the green Seaboard E A&B. I have to have better stencils/lettering for the Seaboard name on the side of the engine and cars. There are new cars for transporting oranges and limes…no lettering as yet. http://CrimsonSun.cc/Seaboard_Green_01sm.jpg http://CrimsonSun.cc/Seaboard_Gree...

Re: Florida Gold Rebuild/Upgrade

Thanks guys. Dropping them off at the next stop and adding them back gets the job done without erasing the train. This allows the train to stay on the same track easier. I must say, these larger sized box and reefer cars I have fell in love with. They fit so nice on this size 20 map. I also like the...

Florida Gold Rebuild/Upgrade

Florida Gold is being rebuilt/upgraded. Thought I might share some of the development as I go. First off…Bobby and Snoopy were kind enough, while I have been ill the past couple years, to make a Sam2 version of the old mod. I will provide that link on this first thread post for those who wish to pla...

Re: Basin And Range 2-maps CIC build Size 13-16 -18

All better. The main download link on the first post has been updated with the new files...just re-download the map files...throw out the old one. This should get this size 18 map running far better than the last group of files. The saved game feature has improved as well. You can now load the game ...

Re: Borneo_NO, all otheres_YES

Don't forget laloha...you can play the maps in TrainTable mode. You get tons of money, don't have to worry about conditions and take your time playing and building.

Have fun ! :D
