So what? It looks very good, just like it should.

We need to create like GP35's and other things that you see in america!

Lemme guess... you also complained that the Skoda, Trabant and Mini aren't american cars?!?    

Really, bmgarcangel... I don't think OFP depicts America as battlefield scenario... so why the heck should the trains be american?!?

because american trains look more industrialised like the Dash 13 or Dash 30 dont remembger the number

If they're not used in the scenarios covered, what's the use?!? To have unrealistic trains?!? No thanks... if we're gonna have trains, better they fit into the picture!

I hope, that there'll be a second trailer soon, with the new engine in action

We've also some other addons in work and some planned, so stay tuned, work is going on ;)

Second trailer

Release the island with the trains and we would all be happy

Hello,

Just a suggestion here:

Often times on trains you will see multiple engines on one train. I believe they are used as braking... For an example see the link at the bottom of this post. If it wouldn't take too much time, do you think it would be at all possible to make extra engines that would act like the cargo cars? I mean an inactive cosmetic one that could be attached behind the main active engine?

Two models would be needed, one forwards and one facing backwards. I hope you understand what I mean, If not, then these links should suffice:

This one is really helpful:

Now, I know these are North American trains, but I do believe the same could be done with European trains.

Just a suggestion, Keep up the good work.

They are used for more Power ;)

[GRUSupergerbil 0]

I thought that too. I have a friend who is a crane operator on the Union Pacific railway and he told me they're for braking.

No matter. I've seen it where smoke is coming from all engines and it made me wonder if that guy knew what he was talking about.

Once again, good work.

More and new trains won't be included in this actual projekt, because:

-Phoenix Island is too small for such a big train, related to the OFP islands it's large, but 256*256 islands, that means 12.5*12.5 Islands are really to small for trains, like on the photo ;)

-The government of Phoenix Island hasn't got the money, to buy such a train and keep it running!

But I wouldn't be against another project in futur, after the AEF project, when my modelling skills are better, actually i'm handling with the brsbb tuts, so i'm not anything worth in that sector ;)

perhaps a 512*512 island, with new buildings, and with a bigger train, like on that picture. but that's just speculation

Great news guys! Hey, maybe you could ask Snake Man, author of PMC_Euro island, if you could use that island and put a train running on it, it's a 25km map, pretty cool, lotsa space where to put a train on!

[kavoven 4]

Hehe, good idea, but I would properly do a complete new island. with the experience i got from phoenix island, which is now nearly two years on my computer, I think the new island would be even better then PI

Nogova today stopped ordering trains from Europe and Russia and has decided to buy the better Dash - 9's from Santa Fe & Burlington Northern, they will be buying 9......and they will be buying 6 GP-35's from Rio Grande

Dash-9

GP-35

Ah... That's too bad.

Oh well, perhaps in the future.

Although, multiple engines doesn't depend upon the length, but the weight of the entire load.

But, you also brought up the money issue.

Anyway, keep it up!

I totaly agree

I would be happy with a dl link

Don't waste your time with uploading srceenshots

Upload the train and the island!

btw: the train looks great

Wauw!!!

That is starting to look very good.

These trains can be made as long as one wants, right?

I'm all giddy and mushy feeling inside.

[Lenin 0]

Cool. When we will be able to test it?

[Odin -AEF-Kampa- 0]

If everything is ready ;)

[Lenin 0]

And when it will be?

i did hear u had been working on a steam engine but because of advanced scripting u have shelved it, i would love to see one tho as the look far better than diesels do have any dev pics of it?

[GRUSupergerbil 0]

Upon further reflection of the last batch of screens I noticed in number 8 that there were two engines in the screen.

(I swear this is the last time I'll ask )

Could you just put the extra engines in for those of us who wish to have unrealistic scenarios?

It could be the same train model, just extra so we could have more powerful looking trains?

I don't want a new engine model, I just want extra ones that can be attached on the same train to make it look like it has multiple engines functioning.

Sorry to bug you again, but I am REALLY interested in this.
