==========================================

First of all, if you didn't yet, unzip "SD40-2W Widenose v1.zip" to your usual downloads' folder, then follow the instructions.

To INSTALL the Normal pack (210m headlight range):
1) Open the folder "SD40-2W Normal";
2) Execute the file "RW_AssetSetup.exe".

It's done!

===>>> However if you have a very good rig you should try the Extreme version!!! <===
To INSTALL the Extreme pack (450m headlight range):
1) Open the folder "SD40-2W EXTREME";
2) Execute the file "RW_AssetSetup.exe".

If you have a low/medium machine and usually getting low fps running TS2012 with TSX On, you can try the following version of our Lightings: "Higher FPS". In this optional version, the light projected by headlight won't cast shadows, as normal headlight does. When not casting shadows the performance of computer (with TSX On) tends to be the same than using the default headlights (casting shadows). With this optional version doesn't matter if you turn headlight on/off, your fps tends to be the same. Try the "normal" version first, and only then the "Higher FPS" version.

To INSTALL the version "Higher FPS":
1) Open the folder "SD40-2W HFPS";
2) Execute the file "RW_AssetSetup.exe".

You are ready to go, with higher fps, though not casting shadows, remember it!

To DE-INSTALL the pack, and restore the RSC default assets:
1) Open the folder "SD40-2W Restore Default";
2) Execute the file "RW_AssetSetup.exe".

********** EXTRA INSTALLING NOTES **********

DETAILED INSTALLATION GUIDELINES.

In case you are not used to TS2012 installing stuffs, here goes a notch by notch guide:

0) Close the game if it is running, it is recommended for precaution only.
1) Copy the file pack "SD40-2W Widenose v1.zip" to your usual download/install folder.
2) Unzip (be sure you unzipped indeed) the pack file. In Win 7 if you try to install when still zipped, you will recieve a screen message warning you to unzip before running the RW_AssetSetup.Exe, otherwise it won't work effectively.
3) Go to the "normal" (not zipped) folder "SD40-2W Normal".
4) Execute the RW_AssetSetup.exe (beware of problem described in #2 above).
5) Will show a screen with the path of your TS2012 (like "C:\Program Files (86)\steam\steamapps\common\railworks), check if it is correct, otherwise change it to your default path using the "......." buttom.
6) If Railworks path is correct, click the buttom "Install to Railworks". Then will open a MS-DOS black window saying the blueprints packs are being deleted. And finally a screen saying "Your package has been installed", click OK to finish.
7) Launch the game (.NET 4.0) and "Start Train Simulator 2012" (no need to clear cache, but you can, if you want), and go check the freeroam Show Case in Barstow to San Bernardino Route.

ESPECIAL MANUAL INSTALLATION GUIDELINES.

Windows 7 have a feature to read the zipped files like if they were unzipped, but in fact they are still zipped. You can see pics files, read documents etc., but you CANNOT run any sort of install *.exe because it won't work. You will see the RW_AssetSetup.exe running with a sucessful message at the end, although in fact the pack wasn't installed correctly because it didn't get to copy the files into the \railworks folder.

Some Windows versions (including Win 7) have a limited number of characteres to be hold in the path name, and some install paths of game are long, causing for few users problem to install.
We have heard, as well, that some users are having problem to run some old versions of WinZip (for example) in Win 7.

If you are experiencing problems to install our pack, you can try these steps (alternatively, and only if normal installing failed).

To (re)INSTALL MANUALLY the pack:
0) Close the game if it is running, it is recommended for precaution only.
1) Open our normal (not zipped) INSTALL folder "SD40-2W Normal".
2) Copy and paste the "railworks" folder of our pack into your "(....)\Steam\steamapps\common\" folder.
3) Launch the game (.NET 4.0) and "Start Train Simulator 2012" (no need to clear cache, but you can, if you want), and go check the freeroam Show Case in Castle Rock Route.
