It does, it was their original model and I edited the mesh

Is it just me, or does this mod show up with "Urban Games" as the author?

Your mod description in game in the Mod.lua file says: "Used in passenger service, these boxcars were specially equipped for high speed service to travel as either baggage cars or express services for faster delivery times."
Had me a bit confused there for a while :p

I eventually would be interested in making the EM-1 from B&O, but the for next big steamer a buddy of mine commissioned the Y6 from N&W

Any plans on making a 2-8-8-4 "Yellowstone" or a SP cab forward?

Is 844 going to come out soon?
themeatballhero  [author] 6 May, 2021 @ 9:35am 
Definitely

will this be updated at some point?
themeatballhero  [author] 31 Jan, 2021 @ 8:02am 
theres... a lot of issues with this. i found out after talking with some guys
Saber 30 Jan, 2021 @ 6:45pm 
I still have the problem of the lights not working, other then that a great mod
themeatballhero  [author] 7 Aug, 2020 @ 6:08pm 
Yes 844 is on my modding list. Maik is doing 4449
Saber 7 Aug, 2020 @ 5:10pm 
Have you thought about adding UP844? Or maybe even doing a full SP Daylight set?
themeatballhero  [author] 7 Aug, 2020 @ 7:56am 
Hm! Okay I can think of a couple of ways that could be a problem, I'll look into it!
themeatballhero  [author] 6 Aug, 2020 @ 10:45am 
hm
not sure what would cause that, its linked to the default light texture. Screenshot and link to your stdout?
Saber 6 Aug, 2020 @ 8:55am 
the headlights arent working for me >.<
themeatballhero  [author] 8 Jul, 2020 @ 8:08pm 
Yeah I should add a texture update is planned. It definitely needs more of a rough look to it.

But like my description says, this mod will eventually receive a massive overhaul as I obtained the plans for both the big boy and challenger, and these boys are tiny compared to prototype specs

Fantastic model, but I agree with the others. The textures are a bit too glossy, even for a "showroom" train. The textures on the UG version feel very nice in terms of gloss and brightness, so maybe something similar to that, but with the new textures instead?

Also, are the sounds supposed to sound super sped up when reaching higher speeds above 50mph? Cause it honestly sounds rather jarring to here it sound like (I'm not an expert on steam locos so it very well be like that irl)
themeatballhero  [author] 17 Jun, 2020 @ 5:36am 
@dourbracken, I'll take a look at that!

All, I added a "planned updates" section, so please read!
Dourbracken 14 May, 2020 @ 12:02am 
Also, the wheel centers seem to be off center. as the coupling rods spin the circle on the hub moves crazily around the wheel.
Dourbracken 13 May, 2020 @ 11:56pm 
Awesome mod! I just wanted to note that the wheels have a weird tint change as they roll, maybe a reflection issue?
themeatballhero  [author] 11 May, 2020 @ 8:15am 
of course! thats what makes it so attractive! its a different variant and I figured itd bring some variety to the game
USAFflight19 11 May, 2020 @ 8:05am 
nice to see you added the eximental smoke deflectors on 4019
Echo-six 8 May, 2020 @ 8:40pm 
yep its fixed keep up the great work:winter2019cooldog:
themeatballhero  [author] 8 May, 2020 @ 7:00pm 
update pushed
themeatballhero  [author] 8 May, 2020 @ 6:19pm 
okay good catch! i have the problem too, i already know the issue ill push an update tonight
Echo-six 8 May, 2020 @ 2:03pm 
and same thing with 4014
Echo-six 8 May, 2020 @ 2:03pm 
4019 only two doesnt work on the rear set of wheels and im in testing braunch
themeatballhero  [author] 8 May, 2020 @ 4:56am 
If you update to the testing patch the wheels situation is resolved, and thanks! :)
Othelos 7 May, 2020 @ 8:41pm 
i was just gonna say something about the wheels but my god man the model is to die for i wish i could do this kind of work
themeatballhero  [author] 7 May, 2020 @ 5:07am 
This is a problem that is with the wheels animation event that the devs are aware of and actually have fixed in the recent testing update. All my steam models use them as they sync directly with the wheels
KillerRsa 6 May, 2020 @ 10:29pm 
Not sure if it only me but with the 4014 some of the wheels dont have turning annimation, wheels are static?! Otherwise very nice models
Not_A_KGB_Agent 4 May, 2020 @ 9:42pm 
fun fact is saw the real 4014 we got a picture and ill tell ya these things are insanely big and the whistle as it passed by almost knocked me over
Boko Disraeli 4 May, 2020 @ 6:56pm 
Very Cool! Great job improving on the UG work.
themeatballhero  [author] 4 May, 2020 @ 6:02pm 
ah you found it! yes its a WIP but I'm going to do what I did to this eventually. New textures, new sunds and new animations. The model seems decent, just have to upgrade the couplers.
Boko Disraeli 4 May, 2020 @ 5:35pm 
Is that a replica skin for for the 9000? Is it a wip or something I can't seem to find on the workshop?
GardienOFAsguard 4 May, 2020 @ 11:54am 
i'm in 2000 without end of train
key house 4 May, 2020 @ 11:12am 
Really love what you did with the grouping, this makes things so much easier. Great work as always! Keep it up!
themeatballhero  [author] 4 May, 2020 @ 10:52am 
also check your stdout
themeatballhero  [author] 4 May, 2020 @ 10:52am 
what year are you in?
GardienOFAsguard 4 May, 2020 @ 10:08am 
I have download and activate the mod but is not in game whay...?
themeatballhero  [author] 4 May, 2020 @ 7:47am 
yes i am! i havent stopped working on any of my models, and i still plan on releasing every one that i have announced, The E7 is getting skinned by mohawk.

As far as the glossy i get that =) maybe ill tone it down in an update
n.chiri 4 May, 2020 @ 7:40am 
I'm looking at the model in Model Editor and the textures look a bit too glossy for a steam train... I think I will continue using the vanilla model instead. But nice job nontheless. Are you still working on the turbine loco?
GardienOFAsguard 4 May, 2020 @ 2:38am 
my gad thanks !!! nice work !!
themeatballhero  [author] 3 May, 2020 @ 7:00pm

modelcitizen 3 May, 2020 @ 5:57pm 
A must-have mod! Great work on this one.
themeatballhero  [author] 3 May, 2020 @ 5:26pm 
yes, my bucket list includes making atsf 3751 as that was made in 1928
