SP AC-12 Pack (Outdated)

Description
This mod pack is outdated! For an updated version with more locomotives, please visit this link:

The AC-12, known also as Southern Pacific Cab Forwards, were articulated steam locomotives built in 1943 and 1944 to haul heavy freight trains over throughout the Southern Pacific system, notably Donner Pass. The locomotive had its cab located in front of the boiler, to keep the smoke and soot away from the crew members while it went through long tunnels. The locomotives were all retired by late 1958, with one example (X4294) in preservation.

This pack features 3 locomotive variants and 2 tender variants. The locomotive has smoke, lights, custom wheels, and both locomotive and tender feature LIVERY SUPPORT! To make a livery, you must copy the template file of the original models (AC12 White rims; AC12 Tender), paste it in the custom assets folder, and modify it to your heart's content. Franks (the creator of the game) has a guide which goes into more detail than what I have the energy to write. I'm not sure if the template is the greatest, however I tried my best. Feel free to post suggestions to improve the template, so my future work can be as high quality as I want it to be.

In regards to future projects, I plan on making Timken's Four Aces and UP's main steam excursion fleet in the "near" future (I'm not sure in what order yet...), and I already have some more ideas for long term goals. You'll just have to wait and see. :-)

This is not a request, but more me pitching an idea to you: what a pack of "common" passenger cars? Just a pack of eight of each or so common Heavyweight and Lightweight cars from Pullman and ACF that were used by most if not all roads. As nice as it is to have new engines, I would love to see more passenger car designs.

And hey, if you're doing the Union Pacific excursion engines, it might be worth while to make some new Union Pacific passenger cars to go with them. I know-I know, building rolling stock is probably not the most exciting thing in the world, but I feel like RL is lacking a lot when it comes to passenger equipment, and it would open up so many new doors that were previously locked.

as someone who has been to the museum who holds the last of thees things, I can confidently say that these are epic! Keep Rolling on man, you are amazing at this. (PS I will 90% be making a livery of these)
