I'm a die hard steam lover. British steamers have nothing wrong with them, but they don't look and perform the same as the American steamers.

I'm not talented at GMAX or whatever, so could someone make a consolidation or something?

A lot of these have already been created for MSTS and Trainz. Bug those creators to do RS versions. Most of the work is in creating the basic shape files and that's already been done on various 3D programs. If you have these you can output them to ANY simulator.

Unfortunately, the guy who created that wonderful Big Boy sold the rights to Trainz (I think). Don't think they would want to convert it for the "competition".

I'm willing to convert my Union Pacific 9000, Camelback, PRR Decapod, PRR K-4, and Atantic as soon as someone figures out how to convert Gmax shape files and ACE textures for use in KRS and tells me how. (I'm a modeller, not a computer software hacker)

I am becoming concerned that the European version of KRS has been out for some time now and I'm not aware of any new rolling stock being available...only repaints. There must be problems.

there is new equipment being developed it just takes time
because the sim is a whole new ball of wax for 3d modelers

with this one
different modeling programs & formats
different rules
different blueprints
different texture types, different ways to texture models etc
not to mention the 3-d cab with all its animation & motion

like myself i am sure that there were alot of people waiting on the mk1 patch & NA rdsl tools before relly getting started on building models

were getting there just be paitent

There must be problems.This was because there was a bug in the 'object set filter'. This has been addressed in the patch (oh sorry, we're supposeed to call it 'upgrade') and if you look over at UKTrainsim, new stuff has started to appear.

I'm assuming you are converting from MSTS?

If not, I want those for Trainz.

Yes, from MSTS. But I did convert my Camelback to Trainz and uploaded to the Auran site. It might still be available. There were several significant issues with the conversion and I just could never get enthusiastic about Trainz (though I purchased two versions) so I loss interest in converting the others.

Hasn't been a month since its debut... and yet people are complaining about their wants already!

Yeah, I have it. MSTS to Trainz conversions never went really well.
