sd80/90 mac pack NOW AVAILABLE

[BNSFdude]

So I can put in as many control values in the BPE now?

The pack is completed as of right now I was going to release it by tonight. I'll release this and do an update that plays with the controls and adds more to the cab. I wanted to make that computer interactive but I dont know what the other screens are.

All ya gotta do is ask! I can help you out with that, since I frequently use the other screens at work.

Hey guys,

I just released it. MERRY CHRISTMAS.

There will be a service pack in a couple weeks to add more functions to the computer system. As of right now the computer displays all the stats like you would expect but I want to add more interactive functions to the layout.

Ian, thanks for great Christmas present!
It looks awesome, and sounds are excellent too.

Found some issues, emailed to you

[eyein12]

heres the dimlight fix. that's what you were describing I overlooked that in the BPE. as for the high resistance I'll work on that with the upcoming service pack.

thanks

one more thing:

-reverser handle works the opposite way
-when throttle used from keyboard (A/D keys), throttle position on HUD display (F4) doesn't change

[eyein12]

I fixed the reverser animation and the dimlight its in 1 download with the pack. No other fixes will be made until the service pack is released. If you want the reverser fix re-download the file from my blog. those in the future need not worry about these two issues.

dang it, I will have to wait until Jan to get it. (Steam sale kinda made me broke for a bit. )

These are very nice locomotives Ian, thank you, I like the hornsound, very haunting in the darkness of night, quite spooky......

Cheerz. ex-railwayman.

[eyein12]

Yeah Anthony did a great job on the UP horn. Its my favorite. Thank you! :)

The whole sound pack for this is very very good.

The engines look and run fantastic. I like the way they don't take off like a jack rabbit. The Trinity covered hoppers are very sharp.
Sort of miss the Heads-Out view from the cab, as I use that a lot. Will put many miles on these guys.
Thanks for your work.

Headout view fix
Coordinates are exactly at driver's head level (I copied them from driver's eye coordinates from Cabview.xml)

copy it into C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\railworks\Assets\EYEIN12\ORLANDO\RAILVEHICLES\Diesel\SD80(90)MAC\NS\CABVIEW
unpack and override existing SD80MAC headout.bin, SD80MAC headout.xml

also, delete Blueprints.bak in
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\railworks\Assets\EYEIN12\ORLANDO
(or other folder where your game installed)
and restart the game

also, everyone can make own non-standard headout position
edit X,Y,Z coordinates in headout.xml . they are in meters, and notation is different from 3D geometry standards
X - offset from centerline of the loco to the left side (negative) or right side (positive).
Y - height
Z - length offset from center point of the loco. positive - towards the cab end, negative - towards the rear end.

"Awaken 1977" Thanks for the Head-out view. Worked like a charm. Its great to deal with helpful people on this here forum.

I uploaded scenario for Horseshoe curve, to test traction characteristics and dynamic brakes of SD80MAC with 13,000 tonn coal train

I think pulling power is OK , but dynamic brake is overpowered - I applied 3%-10% and it was enough on 1,8% downgrade of Horseshoe west slope

also I'm going to do some youtube clips, to boost Eyein's sales
