Second doors are not necessary, since in this type of locomotives (as there are no exterior aisles such as ES44 or SD40 - 70, the machine room is accessed from the central door located in the cabin) and many do not have a second door such as P40 and all Russian models type 2TE and ES5 ... - And I wait patiently for your 2TE10, it's my favorite Russian locomotive in Train Simulator.
I may not release 2TE10, cause according to my current requirements it fails badly. Need to make it deformable but, this train body structure more like a bus, After I finish rebuilding DMM512 (F7) i will rebuild gondola and tank wagons to beamdrifter's wagon standards.
With the desire I had from 2te10 ..... Ok The deformable tank would be great, I like it, I play with it and I prefer it more for the Russian hitch the SA-3, it works very well even without hooking the nodes, only with the editor you approach them well, the wedges and when pulling them with the locomotive pulls them very well, even when they derail, they only disengage if there is enough strength to do so. Could you add the SA-3 to the other equipment to the parts selector? Suggestion: With the 2te10 you could use the method of your deformable wagon that you have in your videos since it is the same, (Bus type) And you can also reinforce a little the central beam of the chassis, (the beam in which the hooks go) that is almost indestructible and rarely twist when a train collides. Good job, I have all your train mods and they are great ....
Sa-3 you mean hook? Then i will rebuild wagons i will add to them and maybe to which i will not rebuild. --- Post updated --- Current state of Train Jbeam. No tow hooks, no extra parts. and frame bending everywhere)))
Yes, Hook, or hitch, that meant but it is a GoogleTranslate thing, here in Cuba we use the BuckEye Type-E, our locomotives are mostly all Russian, we currently have TEM4-K; TEM2-TK; TEM15-K, TGM-4, TGM-8, TGM-8km "These are being manufactured by SINARA", We had the TE114-K (My Favorite, I liked driving the most, but there is only one left in the Museum) ; M62 just one remains, and the Chinese DF7G-c and DF7K-c (the "c" and the "K" in the Russian means they are for Cuba; but they all come with Type-E). We also have Americans. The image looks good, with a little hard work and patience you can finish it, and I see that the total weight you achieved since those models are in that average weight (GM-EMD FT “A” = 104Ton; ALCO PA-1 = 92.6Ton; GM-EMD FP9-A "A" = 115Ton and EMD-F7- "A" = 123.4Ton "B" = 117Ton). There you have in Short Tons (US measure) 115.6Ton. It's okay. It is in average weight. Do not hurry to finish them, the more time you spend in them with better quality will remain .... Note: Why don't you make contact with BeamDrifter, between the two they would make a very good team, and could they help each other with their projects?
I already contacted beamdrifter even before his sd40 release. and thanks to his train and him this train uses his train powertain system of course with his permission. I am bad at all this engines etc. and his system too complicated for me. I'm happy what i manage to adapt his train system on my train. I'm not in a hurry with the train its a project for me mostly.
That is good, because its system is quite approximate to the real one, mainly the traction of the locomotives, and as for that do not say that you are bad, it is simply something that with a little in-depth study you can get to understand, for example I am not Modder, I do not even have 3D modeling skills or Lua and much less JBeam, but nevertheless I have managed to adapt some mods and even fixed them a bit, just by looking at the Lua and Jbeam, I do it for myself, I do not publish anything, mainly because they are not mine and for a little traster does not mean that I am Modder, but I do adjust them according to my needs.
I mean it is not good enough. It has same physics skeleton-like F7 now. But F7 will be better. DMM 512 (F7) complete 80%.
You need to do more hard the central beam, in the case of the BeamDrifter Locomotive in the Main_Frame, so that it does not bend in half, since this part is the hardest thing these machines have, even in a frontal impact between two of these, it is very difficult to bend so much. Kinsmet Head on Collision, In this the Locomotive collides with the tail of another train Arminto BNSF Wreck, Arminto, WY. There was nothing left over the central beam. sometimes they bend but it is very rare to happen.(These models were weak right behind the cabin)
I agree. BUT. This crash test was on 260+kph on both trains. On your pictures the max speed was i think 100+ kph f.e. F7 max speed is 120kph. So nobody really knows how they will bend at these speeds.
In the picture of Kismet, this locomotive took a direct impact, between two trains (his own and the one that came in the opposite direction) of more than 8000 tons each. So more or less we could have an idea of the force needed to bend them in U.
Ok. I understand. So My fixes are next. I made a stronger middle part and front. But I think it will bend but not so much. Tested on speed from Dmm512 200kph and WLD - 150kph WLD weigh is 180 tons Dmm for now 125 tons. Maybe I will fix smth in the future but for now I happy with the results. This is animation click on it to play But I'm very happy with my wheels they are not going to spikes in a crash )))
That is great, it is destroyed but it does not double as much as WLD (This I have it and I strengthened the Main_Frame, and when hitting at speeds of 80-120km / h only the stairs of the ends and the sides of the front parts are shielded and rear). For me ... You can leave it like this, (Although it is not the same to see it, than to experience directly) but it looks and behaves well. As for the weight, that's fine, the weight of F7 is 123ton, then if in the future you make Unit "B" (117Ton) they would already be 240ton combined, and going face to face with WLD would be very different results. !!!!Nice Work!!!! Edit: That skin is great ...
Thanks. About skins. Is it ok? If I take official skins and make them like a custom? Remove naming of transport companies etc... I saw a lot of stuff like this - like not Union But Onin express? The coupling system ready. Most jbeam getting from WLD cause it works fine and no needs to tune perfect to suit to WLD wagon and locomotive. --- Post updated --- Train number "Generator". Manual. I don't include letters cause it will increase time and I have no idea which letters to use and some trains have 1 letter 4 digits. So this is a game and i simplify this function.
Yes, they would look great with the original colors and change the names but ...., it would be nice to keep the original paintings. Although personally I do not believe that any company of Railways has time to walk saying "Hey ... Do not use the paint of my locomotives in your MODS" Yours for example was always with "Rio Grande" Have you ever been told something? .. Most train games use the original paintings (at least all I have Train Sim World, Train Simulator, Trainz 12, 2019, including Farming Simulator 17 and 19, The Modders make their locomotives with original paintings) and there has never been any problem with the Modders "I have not seen the Railroad Company that respects those things", I see no problem with that .... You can use 4 numbers only, that's how Locomotives are listed in almost all countries, mainly in USA. This is here in Cuba in the 50s, an ALCO 1600. "4 Numbers" When the Russians arrived we started using 5 numbers where one says something about the Locomotive. This for example TEM-4K 51015, It's me driving it "Left Up" and "Right Up" is the cabin of a TEM2-TK 71078. They are old, have more than 40 years of service, but do not leave us lying anywhere, it is rare that they break up by rendering service "when they sometimes fail, we fix them ourselves, at school we study them thoroughly and it feels good when You know you fixed it yourself "... they are very reliable. The first number "5" tells me the type of locomotive traction example: "2" is Steam "3" is Diesel-Hydraulic "5-9" is Diesel-Electric the second and third number "10" tells me the power in HP (multiply by 100) Example: "10" = 1000 HP "25" = 2500 HP "08" = 800 HP ex: 38085 "TGM-8" the fourth and fifth the park number (that is the number of that locomotive model)
Train number "Generator". Manual. I don't include letters cause it will encrease time and i have no idea which letters to use and About skins i save original colors but change names. No more Rio Grande = will be RiGrand and Santa Fe = Sanata Feet ). About russian trains we have a lot of them. Train is ready about 90%. I will change sound also.
If you want, I can came with names in spanish to mock them up, as a spanish (or spaniard?). Rio Grande and Santa Fe are very recognizable names for a spanish speaker. So I think that It would be nice to have something that at least sounds spanish. Like "Rio Grande" = "El gran Rio" or "Gran Rio" [Gran means Big in old Spanish and is still used in names of places like the Gran Canarias islands] For "Santa Fe" , I think that a saint name in spanish would do the trick. But I need to find one that if doesnt sounds a lot alike, at least makes sense.
