Loco Livery

[Limskj]

Is it possible to create new skins for the locos?

[Moggie]

Certainly.

This is from the RT3 side but I think it applies to Trainmaster too. Hawk? Ned?

The link is for making complete new locos, not just skins. CTC included a skin maker utility for making alternate skins.

TM will accept alternate skins, but you are better off making custom paks. The TM Rolling Stock Developer's kit has a bunch of utilities and stuff for not only locos, but all cars.

If you have any questions about custom paks, or skinning, feel free to post them. Also, keep me abreast of what you are doing in case there is already something ongoing so it can be coordinated if possible.

I'm just about finished theCanadian express set, 1 mail car left, ad a couple of passenger coaches. if all goes well should have them done this weekend.

I intent to make a Norfolk Southern and CSX Livery Version of the SD40.

In the case of the CSX, I would like to propose that since there is already some CSX skins for other locomotives, that perhaps we could include yours with those, and maybe make any others that would be used by CSX. Juice Train uses CSX so it would be a good custom pak for that scenario, but also offer up a full livery. Could even maybe do some rolling stock as well, or a cargo icon skin that would put the csx logo on the freight cars that use the cargo icon.

As for Norfolk Southern...not familiar enough to comment.
