The Abrams tank file was a hidden, unused load in the TS Rewards military pack files. Jalsina got them onto the flatcar as a proper load in game.

Oh nice....So then I take it that his pack will soon be released

Maybe there is a way to make new models for the load with the turrent in the right position :)
But great work Jalsina

The .rwp was tested yesterday by someone else, so I think there should not be anything wrong. I am writing the readme. As soon as I have it I will pack a zip and upload it. That could be tonight. The next time Bob will post the weekly uploads, you will probably get it.

Unfortunately I can´t turn the turret 180 degrees. I am not touching the DTG GeoPcDx at all, not even the textures. The installation will be very straightforward using a .rwp. It will not require any GeoPcDx copy to "another folder" because the tank is already there in your TS Rewards (Feb).
What took me more time were the QD scenarios because they were made by hacking some consist and fragments bin files.

What could be a future work is repainting that tank in camo colors. But in that case it would require a Geo copying.

Damaged rolling stock and locos? Hell ya! Awesome idea dude!

That´s a great idea!
Those chain bracings. Where would you get them?
They are used also for military equipment.

The Abrams tanks flatcars are already uploaded.
Same for their Krellnut sounds. For this one I mentioned wrongly in the readme that it required the March Rewards.
Just to make it clear, both files will require that you have the February DTG Train Simulator Rewards installed.

Well... That will be for a Blender modelling specialist. I know of someone from somewhere in Germany that has done some interesting children lately
I have no clue how to hack the current GeoPcDx. I could try, but it would not be legit, anyway.
Not much of a topic in this forum but there is a nice Leopard tank that was recently posted (maybe in Steam or here) and that I could try doing the same I did for the Abrams but for the March Reward German flatcar.

That's a great idea, but Sibell and Luke are involved in a large project.

Actually, Leopards Leclercs and Challengers would be most appropriate for European loads.

I was just kidding. I know she is always immersed in some project.

I would just dare to bet you that NATO has more Abrams in Europe than all the other tanks you mentioned above.

EDIT:
There are these payware flatcars:

As far as I understand, there is no way to access the .GEOPCDX file. You must have access to all of the source files which means that you cannot load DTG's tank (or any other model for that matter) into a modelling program and edit it unless you are the creator/author.

You'd have to create an entirely new model of your own, export it as an .igs, and then export it to the game using the blueprint editor. Once it is exported into .geopcdx, there is no reversing the process.

The cars look fantastic! Great job!

The Abrams tank is really good and more accurate than the other three models they included in the rewards.
It was a very good job by some dev in DTG (or third party).

I think the leopard was shown in the Victory pages.

I believe the Leopard 2 I was referring before was that from Chris Trains: http://www.christrains.com/ts_product_nsslmmnps.html but was a different picture than those in the link
The Victory Pages you refer to, are something related with Victory Works?
