How do you add them?

For the Challenger.

If you have the Gtrax 4449 or Berkshire, the headlight code is in the .bin file. Cab lights are a dark art at this point, I plan to work on it for the GP7. Once I get it to work, I'll post a thread about it.

Cab lights are here. The key: be sure to download the DRB_SAL-GP7-TS2012 file so that you'll have the lights to use.

The last four lines in the matrix are the critical ones.

Code: Select all
<e d:type="sFloat32" d:alt_encoding="000000606666F23F" d:precision="string">0.8000</e> --- 0 is center - anything negative is to the left (facing front) in meters, positive is right
                              <e d:type="sFloat32" d:alt_encoding="0000008014AE0140" d:precision="string">3.5000</e> --- 0 is track level - height is positive in meters
                              <e d:type="sFloat32" d:alt_encoding="000000C0CCCC0C40" d:precision="string">3.8000</e> --- 0 is the center of the loco fore to aft - negative is to the rear.
                              <e d:type="sFloat32" d:alt_encoding="000000000000F03F" d:precision="string">1.0000</e>


Hope this helps.
