CTA Chicago Skin

Post by edcolon17 »

Hi guys - sorry for the active posts but I'm pumped I can run this now! Because of this, I've made a skin for all my Chicago EL fans. Not perfect, but it's just for fun:

Also - does anybody know how to replace these skins in activity mode? Everytime I open the .act file and try to replace the model skins, the activity stops working and goes into explore mode.

Thanks!

Looks nice ;)
For a better result you have to remove the windows out of your repaint and give them the same color as around the windows.

For the special repaint in a activity:
example:
<consist start="VRW1">
<train pack="RET" file="5200.xml" number="5204">
<cab id="1" enabled="true" ai="735"/>
<pantographs raised="true"/>
</train>
</consist>

The bold part is where you can give a train a specific number.
