Railworks America

1503 has the later AC graphic. Originally inspired by the McGinnis era New Haven.



Now I have to figure out how to package this stuff. Repaints of the original require Dave's model to be installed even though there's no file copying as with payware.

If you need some advice or someone to look at it before you upload to the library I would be happy to take a look at it for you.

That'd be great, Buzz. I haven't a clue how to go about uploading. Still some clean-up to do, you know, delete extraneous files, bin backups, make a couple of screens, oh and make a readme. Which is better for the end user, Package Manager or RW_Tools.

Many Thanks,

.rwp that can be opened with the TS utilities seem to be the easiest thing to deal with.

That's my impression, too. But how do you not include the geo files? TS utilities doesn't seem to give you the option of selecting files. It just wraps up everything.

If that is based on the old MP GP15, it is freeware and may include the geos. There is a newer version of the MP GP15 that PapaXpress and I updated with the light beams and such.
It is also freeware.

Oh yes, you did those? I have UP588 and the CNWs installed. My Adriana repaints are the MP model in file library here. In the GP15, you know that the whole original model has to be installed or the repaints won't work. The Jesse James repaints include the original with the repaints. That's one way to do it, I guess. Like UP588, these Adriana County GP15s are single number locos because of the MP number board placement.

Anyway, when I've used RW_Tools, the GeoPcDx files are left out, or so it seems. RW_Tools will make a zip file, too. TS utilities wraps up everything in the folder into an rwp which seems impossible to edit. I guess you'd have to delete or remove the GeoPcDx files before making an rwp then put them back after doing so. Seems rather awkward to me!

Using the "trail" or driverless units here...


Many Thanks Everyone,

The point I was trying to make, is that you don't have to remove the geos at all. The only time you need to do that is when you use payware to create your models.

I get it, Mike, I'm OK with the GP15, it is the payware I was referring to with RW_Tools vs TS utilities. Sorry for the confusion.
