DieselWorkshop - ALCO RS-3 Series

[ENR3005]

Poking around today it's just amazing how many railroads had RS3's.

We had them out here in BC to the mid 80s as branchline and yard power, although a bit modified as one can see in this photo as the British Columbia Railway / BC Rail liked to do with all its equipment. Neat units and a nice replica for the sim that I look forward to trying.

From american-rails: original owners

Chances are your favorite railroad had them at some point in time

***Ironically the UP was one of the very few that never touched the rs3, but bought it's cousin, the rs2

Now available in the file library.

How good is this engine? Physics, sound, model, controls?
I'm interested but I don't want to buy an inferior engine that I will never use.

I give it a A pretty much on everything except the sound which is fine other than just like my question about making the G12 sound louder the sound is fine but too soft. This needs to be fixed and no I haven't talked to Martins about it yet. Maybe he will see this.

[buzz456]

I think I have the sound thing sort of worked out. Stand by for news.

Very good the RS-3, I love it!!

Some repaints will come soon!

Great job Buzz.
Any ideas as to how to make the number system 3 instead of 4 digits. Putting an x in front or after doesn't work.interested in your sound experiment as that is the only fault I can find, alright if in the 90s or 2000s but much too quiet for the 60s!!

[buzz456]

I installed the RS-3 three times and I have any DieselWorkShop yet in my Assets!

Look for [DW] MLW RS3 etc.

So what happened when you put the x in front of it? And did you remember to uninstall it and re-install? You know the scenario remembers the numbers unless you take it out and put it back in?

[mindenjohn]

X before 3 digits results in a 3 before the digits. X behind the digits results in a zero after examples x334 becomes 3334, 334 becomes 3340. Altering the dcsv file does not change anything.
Have a great Independence Day.

[buzz456]

OK here's what I did. Made a blank texture and named it X. Went into the dcsv bin files and added number X. Added X to front of number. Wola!
