@SS Edmund Fitzgerald - I'm not doing any more on Transport Fever 1. I redid this mod for Transport Fever 2, but didn't include the 1366 class as they were quite different and there were few made.
SS Edmund Fitzgerald 8 Jul, 2023 @ 12:08pm 
Can you do the GWR 1366 class?

I too would welcome these in Transport Fever 2 in the future. I am not in a rush for them so take your time and do it when you can mate :).

@MarkusMalice87 - Thanks. Yes. I'm currently doing express passenger stuff. Then more tank engines after that. So hopefully February or March. It'll be a complete rework, so far far better than this, which was my first mod.

Love these Panniers. Is there any plan to remake or port these over into TF2 in the future?
BritishRail60062 16 May, 2020 @ 5:59pm 
Great add-on. Thanks a lot.

I SEE DUCK

@excr - That's true, it was my first mod, so quite lacking compared to later ones. It mostly doesn't actually have texture maps, e.g. just solid colour textures. I've previously started reworking it, almost from scratch, for TpF2. It's uncertain how soon after the game's launch it will be done, but it will be much better once finished. Thanks.

Hey JK, do you have any plans to revisit the pannier tanks at some point? The texturing isn't quite as good as your later GWR models which is a pity since I use these little iconic engines gratuitously! As always, grateful for everything you've shared.
TotoDG 31 Aug, 2018 @ 2:07am 
Quack! Quack! Quack!

Now that it's out of my system, this seriously is a good locomotive.
JK  [author] 10 Jul, 2018 @ 9:24am 
@Legdig - It doesn't currently include a placeable asset version. This will be added at some-point. Similarly for the others that don't yet have them.
Legdig 10 Jul, 2018 @ 9:15am 
Hello, I have a question to ask about this engine, some of your other engines have static placable varients like the star and the 69. Are these available for the pannier or do they just come in at a later date? I play the game in the early years mostly.

DUCK!!! *Thomas and Friends*
JK  [author] 16 Dec, 2017 @ 8:39am 
@Multiplio - Thanks. I've fixed that now.
@jepirie04 - I wasn't able replicate this issue on any of them. Maybe try unsubscribing and resubscribing to the mod if you're still having the issue.
Multiplio 16 Dec, 2017 @ 8:13am 
It does work on new games though - it just broke on my existing save
Multiplio 16 Dec, 2017 @ 8:12am 
Unfortunately the reversed version of the GWR one is still broken for case-sensitive systems:
GWR_5700_(R).mdl references "vehicle/train/gwr_5700/..." when it should be "vehicle/train/GWR_5700/..."
I've changed it on my local version and that has fixed it. :-)
Glenn Muskk 23 Nov, 2017 @ 5:42pm 
this little one is really cool. but on one of the other train locos that you made, the trains buffers go through whater its connected to. either its the train or its just my computer.
JK  [author] 31 Oct, 2017 @ 12:33pm 
I've found I'd made mistakes in yesterday's update that would cause an error on a case-sensitive file system. I've corrected it now, apologies if anyone was affected.
Multiplio 30 Oct, 2017 @ 2:28pm 
Great!
JK  [author] 30 Oct, 2017 @ 12:20pm 
I've just updated this, fixing the issues mentioned below, adding lamps etc and reversed versions of the Rebuild and BR models.
JK  [author] 10 Sep, 2017 @ 11:38am 
@Multiplio - Thanks. I need to update this with lamps (like I've done on most of the others), so will probably fix that at the same time. I also know how to fixed the 1st person camera to face the right way now, so will probably do that too.
Multiplio 10 Sep, 2017 @ 11:17am 
I love this! One problem: the connecting rods on the backwards facing engines rotate in the wrong direction (the wheels are fine).

Other than that it's perfect! :-)
LIGHTTECH2 11 Aug, 2017 @ 10:50am 
dank je wel
JK  [author] 26 Jun, 2017 @ 2:56pm 
I've no plans for other railway companies.
DPT Wanderer 26 Jun, 2017 @ 2:36pm 
@JK are you possibly going to do LMS/LNER/SR.? cause i could offer a sugestion for the SR the LBSCR Class E2
JK  [author] 10 Jun, 2017 @ 7:13am 
@afallentree - Yes, these are both planned, at some point.
@Colonel Success - I think I've already covered GWR saddle tanks with the 1076, which is typical of a range of similar GWR saddle tanks that later became pannier tanks. There were a small number of other 'GWR' saddle tanks they got from other companies, e.g for working docks. I might do some side tanks at some point, 1400 has been suggested, and there were various similar 'Prairies' (5101 etc) which would be something different. But having a had quick look about; the Hunslet Austerity 0-6-0ST is similar to my 1076, and many were made and preserved, so I could maybe do a version of this in the very distant future.
Dell Conagher 10 Jun, 2017 @ 6:44am 
Saddle tanks?
afallentree 10 Jun, 2017 @ 6:36am 
Will you try modeling any of the bigger GWR classes like the City or castles class locomotives?
JK  [author] 5 Jun, 2017 @ 9:35am 
I don't have plans for that. Currently it doesn't have a proper texture map.
DPT Wanderer 5 Jun, 2017 @ 9:00am 
is there possibly going to be a London transport livery ? a number of the 57xx were bought by London transport
JK  [author] 19 May, 2017 @ 9:22am 
@Multiplio - I suspected it might be case-sensitive related. I think I went with all lower case on the later ones, but I will have to correct this one at some point. Thanks.
Multiplio 19 May, 2017 @ 4:15am 
Update: Yep that fixed it! Just rename Wheel.msh to wheel.msh and Wheel.msh.blob to wheel.msh.blob
Multiplio 19 May, 2017 @ 4:05am 
I'm on Ubuntu (Linux) which probably has something to do with it. I have done as you said and it still crashes. I think I've found the problem though: Linux is case sensitive and the actual file is called "Wheel.msh" whereas the mod is looking for "wheel.msh" (as shown in the error message)

I hope this helps!
JK  [author] 19 May, 2017 @ 12:49am 
@Multiplio - What's your operating system? Can you check if the file actually there? You could try unsubscribing, restarting your PC, then subscribing again.
Multiplio 18 May, 2017 @ 3:02pm 
Nope - I've tried it by itself and it still crashes with the same error.
Multiplio 18 May, 2017 @ 2:56pm 
Unfortunately it causes the game to crash when I buy it:

cannot open res/models/mesh/vehicle/train/GWR_5700/wheel.msh: No such file or directory

I have a few other mods - maybe it's a compatibility error?
Dell Conagher 14 May, 2017 @ 2:06am 
THX for the saddle tank, JK!
JK  [author] 14 May, 2017 @ 2:02am 
@LSV Xenoglossicist - That would good to get in the game. It's pretty straightforward once you know how, but the information on how to do it is scattered about. I think I'd try do a crude guide covering the basics and linking to the various infos.
@Dan1 - Yes. I only plan to do GWR for the foreseeable future. In fact, there might be another published by the end of the day...
LSV Xenoglossicist 13 May, 2017 @ 4:18pm 
NICE. I had modeled a mogul in blender but i have not idea how to import to game. :(
Dan1 13 May, 2017 @ 1:47pm 
Will you be doing any more GWR engines
Northerner Transport Hub 10 May, 2017 @ 12:13pm 
ok, they are still nice and I downloaded both locos. As you were saying, its consideration for the future and maybe the 14XX tank engine will be on your to do list. That does not need complex animation for the drive system as there are only 4 driving wheels at the front, 2 either side. The 14XX is an unusual locomotive. As used in Thomas The Tank Engine as Oliver
JK  [author] 10 May, 2017 @ 10:46am 
@LONDONMIDLANDZZ - I *hope* to do some of them eventually. I plan to do some 0-6-0 and 4-4-0 tendered locomotives first as these don't need complex animation for the drive system.
Northerner Transport Hub 10 May, 2017 @ 9:01am 
ok. Can u make a castle, hall or king class locomotives as olton hall would be good
JK  [author] 9 May, 2017 @ 1:49pm 
I've just updated this with custom colours (except BR), better texture (shine), better safety valve and better icons.
Northerner Transport Hub 5 May, 2017 @ 10:12pm 
and the 14XX is nice. I saw 2 panniers at Didcot Railway Centre (Were not opperational)
Northerner Transport Hub 5 May, 2017 @ 10:11pm 
hey dude really gr8 train. Need GWR King class though
Northerner Transport Hub 5 May, 2017 @ 10:10pm 
@An lowa class battleship its there are two ways of doing things, the wrong way and the great western way!
ΞCNΛLUBMΛ 30 Apr, 2017 @ 7:50pm 
Hey man, I was wondering if I could help you improve the model of this pannier tank. The model right now is absolutely excellent, but you have missed a few minor details. I have loads of spare time and I would love to help you make this model shine. I have sent you a friend request if you would like to discuss this further.
JK  [author] 27 Apr, 2017 @ 1:04pm 
I've just updated this with an earlier version; GWR 0-6-0PT Rebuild, 1910-1930. It's just a variation on the theme, but fleshes things out a bit more.
