Gp Series Skin Pack

Post by OzoB » Tue Jan 16, 2007 4:24 pm

In an effort to help People who are not good at working with game
files. Ive taken the time to make a gp series skin pack.



... To Install simply copy the GpSkinpac.fpk to your SMR customassets ...

?:\Documents and Settings\YourName\My Documents\My Games\Sid Meier's Railroads!\CustomAssets

Original skins from game are default,_v1,_v2

All the skins Have the proper _v#s

GP7 = v3 thru v11 :: (Eilewens GP7 mod required )
GP38=v3 thru v11 :: (Any new skins should start with v12)

If you Have skins already they will still be there
The game will read loose files before the .FPKs

There are 8 skins per loco not including the originals
For more pics on the Included skins view the SMR trian skins thread

BY downloading these skins You agree to the terms
These files are free to use and distribute
Provided the original readme is Included and there is no $$$ gian.

I wonder???
Should I use 7zip?? I could 7zip both files in one .fpk rite at 6 mbs.
Instead of 8 mb each

V200

Yes you can give another skin a V# Ive used.
Your game will now use that skin.
SMR reads & loads the loose files in customassets before the .FPK's

Eliewens GP7 mod required

Thats where I get in trouble. I tried to do the mod a couple times and had a hard crash. Then the game no longer works. Had to do a fresh install. :(

No dont reinstall the red blob of death has something to do with the niff files. Or you made an error in the xmls
The game isnt loading the models. If it was the skins the models would be pink. Did you put Eilewens GP.fpk in the SMRcustomassets folder


Just to make sure there is a folder in the gp7zip named interface
Did you put those files in your SMR\customassets\interface folder?
If you see the gp7 in the top right corner on the routing map you got that too

I see you have the name part from the pic so you have the names xmls right ..
I know this can be frustrating trust me Iam working on a new loco and cant get past the Red Blob of death. But this is a working mod you are doing something wrong

Just replace your xmls with your back ups and that will go away
Also double check that Railroads.exe isnt running before any changes
(taskmanager\processes) sometimes a reboot will fix that also
This game has some major buggs here Sometimes from just exiting and starting it agian later I have that same problem and I always have to reboot sometimes more than once to get it to start agian
And thats without doing any modding just restarting the game!!

ALWAYs!!!!!!!!! double check the taskmanger before doing any modding

You will only see it under processes (Not apps)

Eilewen gave very detailed instructions on adding this loco
Reread and Try agian you will get it

Please post mod related ?????'s under the MODS Talk
No Offence
But this has turned into another mod help thread rather than skins ,
Like my other thread
I will only help you if you post in the right place..

Don't let it get you down, LOL I had to just replace my files I mod, then everything is OK. I just wanted to get you trains pretty bad. I hope Sid Meier's and the team reads these forums so we can get a fix or make it a little easy to do this. thanks for trying to help. :)

No problem Just remember Ive only released skins no new trians yet
I have the red blob of death to on that project but i know its in the niffs
Ive almost got a complete working Ice trian..
If you pm me an email Ill
email you the trian and triancars xml ready to go
On second thought I have to many modifications to do that with out redoing them

Maybe some kind soul with only the tendermod,gp7,f3 a&b unit mod
could post thier xmls for others to just replace there files instead of editing them??
