Marias Pass - new TOFC on TTX90 flatcar (RSC)

Unread postby QcRail » Mon Sep 18, 2023 11:44 am

Hi All, I'm back from a long silence and with a brand new full knee replacement !!jabber!!

I need HELP to properly upload to this wonderful library a 90ft flatcar with TOFC trailers using the RSC Marias Pass «FlatcarRTTX90» freight car.
The reason is that, this new pack will have 1024x1024 mapping textures instead of the actual 512x512 texture. This choice is to greatly improve the fine graphics and texts found on many semi-trailers.

MY question : Can I include the existing «Flatcar_RTTX90_trucks_1.GeoPcDx» and «Flatcar_RTTX90_trucks_1.GeoPcDx» used to generate a one trailer version and a twin trailers
version. Note it is not the GeoPcDx used for the 90ft flatcar. This would permit me to offer variaties of the same semi-trailer compagny with different logos or colors. Furthermore, it would save disk space by not duplicating the same file for each trailer. (I have used this option, in the past, with GreatNorthener's TOFC semi-trailers packs) .

As to further illustrate my proposal, here are a few of 1024x1024 TOFC (by the way, I'm using many of the trailer companies that is within the 90000ft\NewEngland\Scenery\Equipment package).

Each of my new semi-trailer company will include 3 different options:
1. the original single trailer on 90ft flatcar
2. the original twin trailers on 90ft flatcar
3. new variant - single trailer of new co. + a total different trailer (to be stored within the «Scenery» folder of Marias Pass) !!*ok*!!

If I understand your question you ask if you can include the Flatcar_RTTX90_trucks_1 etc. Sure as long as you don't include the Flatcar_RTTX90.GeoPcDx file. The trucks model aren't going to do anyone much good without the car and you're not posting the car model.

Thanks Buzz for your quick response. I was fairly certain of the said answer but I wanted to clarify and not work needlessly **!!bang!!**

Just to titilate my co-simmers here is a new trailer inspired from the model railroad world, but newly designed by me - just keeping the logo of the famous Croocked Mountain Lines. !*YAAA*!
