Gr1m\u2019s Generic British Engines Pack v2 For all your generic steam engine needs!<\/p>\n
Note that this mod is intended to replace the first version of this mod. There was a major restructuring of files behind the scenes, and a regular update would have broken a lot of people\u2019s saves. Install this mod, replace your engines, and remove the previous version.<\/p>\n
This pack has 55 \u2018generic\u2019 engines in it designed to represent some of the common engines found on pre-grouping railways in the UK.<\/p>\n
And all 55 are available In 3 liveries \u2013 the blue shown above, as well as an unlined \u2018freight black\u2019 style livery that was common, and a gold-lined red livery as well.<\/p>\n
21 of the later locomotives are also available in BR Green, BR Blue and BR Black liveries as well.<\/p>\n
I\u2019ve also included placeable assets of all of the engines. These assets are also available \u2018as new\u2019, or in fully aged and rusted variants for adding to your sidings, scrapyards, workshops and so on.<\/p>\n
So uh\u2026all in all? There\u2019s 165 different engine variants. And more than that for placeable assets.<\/p>\n
To save on file space, but not my sanity, the models are made up of a bunch of common meshes, and everything\u2019s kind of cobbled together in the .mdl files. Its a bit complicated, but the long and the short of it is that the entire pack shares a bunch of common mesh assets, and everything is mapped to the one set of textures. Which saves on file size. So you get a lot of mod for a fairly economic file.<\/p>\n
These engines cover from 1850 right up until 1950, so you\u2019ll see everything from early 2-2-2s, all the way up to some big 0-8-0s and 4-4-2s, and a big Pacific, a couple of Black 5 inspired engines and more!<\/p>\n
There\u2019s also an absolute ton of small tank engines and shunters for your sidings and freight yards and such.<\/p>\n
I\u2019m not going to list all of the engines stats below because I\u2019d be here all day. But rest assured I\u2019ve taken multiple attempts to try and balance them around each other (however the early locos *are* OP compared to vanilla, because the 1850s economy is broken anyway)<\/p>\n
Features:<\/p>\n
-55 original engines, based on common UK engine designs ranging from 1850 \u2013 1950
\n-All engines come in 3 liveries \u2013 a generic lined blue livery, and an unlined generic \u2018freight black\u2019 livery and a red livery with gold lining.
\n-A total of\u00a0160 engine variants to choose from
\n-Full aging and recolour support. Detailed dirt and rust accumulates as the engine ages.
\n-Engines are sorted in a depot menus to reduce purchase menu clutter. Due to the large volume of locomotives available, they have been split between 5 menus for 25 year blocks.
\n-Small file size and .dds compressed textures, to help with load speed.
\n-Lods to reduce GPU load.
\n-Placeable rail assets (also with lods) allowing placement of the full engine, or just the tender or locomotive if you wish.
\n-Aged\/rusted versions of placeable assets.
\n-Moddable engine numbers \u2013 edit the number of the train and the number will display on the side of the locomotive.
\n-Don\u2019t like a specific livery? You can now disable it in the in-game mod menu to further reduce depot menu clutter!<\/p>\n
