I'm also not looking at starting any new mods just yet, and I'd prefer if requests weren't made in this thread. Thanks.

I've just upgraded my LBSCR K Class mod with a pretty significant upgrade, but I'm still probably going to tinker with it a little more before I'm fully satisfied with the upgrade. I'll probably move onto the H1 Atlantic at that point.
Also, on a side note, and an admission of just how new to modelling I still am, I *just* discovered the perks of setting sharp edges and how that makes smooth faces work better. So I'll be going over everything and fixing that now, too. >.>

Hey mate. I have plans to see what I can do in regards to the LBSCR L class and subsequent rebuilds to the N15X engine.

You are the defacto Southern and LBSCR guy at the moment so I wanted to make sure I am not going to cut in front of you if you already had plans for the L Class.
Nah, go for it. I only wound up being the LBSCR guy sort of by default because if you're going to do one Stroudley engine, you might as well do them all (since they're fundamentally the same, just with different wheel arrangements).

I'm probably going to be busy updating my existing mods for the near future anyway. Beyond that I don't even have any semblance of an idea of what to do next.
I've just updated my LB&SCR H2 Atlantic (my earlier post was a typo, look at me not even knowing my own mods >.>) with all the new bells and whistles - liveries, placable assets, model upgrades and texture edits etc.

Next on the list is some hotfixes for the DX goods and Generic Brake Van mods. Then I'll start to tackle all the Stroudley engines.
On a bit of a whim, I've started working on a GNR O1 2-8-0. Dunno how long it'll take to finish, but it's in the works. :P

I don't know if you need them, but in my Peppercorn A1 I have a soundset that might fit your project. If you want to use it, feel free. I think there's 1 or 2 unused whistles to choose from if you want. Hope it helps!
Neat, I'll look into it - sounds aren't really my forte, so I'll take whatever help I can get, lol. Thanks!

Hi gr1m, hope you don't mind me treading in LB&SCR territory with the A1 Terrier. I've had my Dad's model of it for a while and finally decided to get around to porting it last night...
Nah not at all! I had no plans of making it anytime soon anyway.

I hold no sort of 'claim' over LB&SCR engines or anything. If someone wants to make one, go for it. Hell, if you want to make something I've already released, go for it. xP
Steve Emfore 50 20 May, 2019 @ 10:03am 
Hey Mr Gr1m, could I use your tender for the LNER 2-8-0 in an update I'm brewing for the GNR Atlantics? It's probably a lot closer to what the engine had than what I did.
Sure, go for it. Just be sure to credit me and it's all good. :D
Steve Emfore 50 21 May, 2019 @ 2:17am 
Will do lad, cheers!
Steve Emfore 50 21 May, 2019 @ 2:20am 
I also saw you were interested in a Garratt, I have a proof of concept 2-6-4 + 4-6-2 that was adapted from the Prussian G3. If you think it will help you let me know.
@SteveM4: All I'm going to say is...watch this space. :X
