Generic British Carriages - Dual Tone

Description
Generic British Carriage - Dual Tone

This pack contains five generations of generic compartment carriages typical of British railways in the late 19th to keep your passengers travelling in style. Each subsequent generation of carriage comes with slightly upgraded stats, top speeds etc.

Furthermore, every generation of carriage has a number of variants as well. At the bare minimum you'll have a brake carriage, a couple of mixed third class/brake carriages, a third and a first class to work with.

All in all there are 27 usable carriage variants in this mod.

To reduce menu clutter, this mod shares a menu entry with my other carriage mods.

Hi Gr1m, I'm finishing a small addition/adjustment that allows the cars to carry mail instead of passengers. Its only for my personal use, but if you'd like, I'd be happy to send the completed adjustments to you. Its 99.9999999% you and 0.0000001% me. It's up to you bud, otherwise I'll just keep it to myself as a personal customization.

quick update to fix the availability date of the assets, and reduced some redundant files, reducing the overall file size significantly.

UPDATE: Re-did the assets menus to reduce clutter, as well as some minor mesh fixes and tweaking files.

I also combed over every variant and redid the door placement to that they should all be much more flush with the carriage.

UPDATE: Added some extra placement functionality. Assets will now be able to be tilted using the o,p,[, and ] keys.

UPDATE: I've slightly updated the textures and colouring. I thought the original texture looked a little dusty and washed out.

Also, BENCHES.

Yep, the carriages now have seats for passengers to sit on, not just float there.

Brilliant, Thankyou. Thankyou for these beautiful carriages, they feature on nearly all of my passenger lines on my UK Map.

Oh, and on the off-chance you want to change the capacity for the Single tone versions as well, you'll need to follow the same process, but for the files located in:
Steam/steamapps/workshop/content/1066780/1939655980/res/models/model/vehicle/waggon/

@Prediter: You should find the .mdl files in Steam/steamapps/workshop/content/1066780/1939656506/res/models/model/vehicle/waggon/

You'll need to open the .mdl files in notepad or something like that - Don't bother about changing the files with 'menu', they're just dummy entries for the group menus. Scroll down to the bottom of the file, you'll see something like:

cargoEntries = {
{
capacity = 88,
seats = { },
type = "PASSENGERS",
},

Just change the 88 (or whatever entry is next to capacity) to the number you desire, multiplied by 4. So if you want a passenger capacity of 20, the capacity line should be 'capacity = 80,'

Don't forget the comma at the end either.

Hope that helps!

I love using these but I really want to change the capacity of each car.. Where are the settings located for the passenger capacities?

Just so you know, the early bogie rear brake for both the single and dual tone pack is incorrectly described as a front brake.

Also, a small detail, but most old British coaches I've seen have black painted ends rather than wood as well.
