universetwisters Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 Hello fellow modders, I've been looking at the files for IV, and it shows there's a "subway hi" and a "subway lo" models (or something along the lines of that). Are these the same models or different ones? Like, if I were to change one, would the other change? I'd like to take one of the models and change it into a full-sized coal train and remove the stops on its path to give the impression that theres a train scooting about the map! thanks in advance, Phil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monster875. Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 i guess the "subway hi" is for the subway trains OVER the ground. and the "subway lo" is used for under the ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought about that too, but do they use the same model or different (yet identical) ones? It seems a bit odd that there would be 2 of the same model Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monster875. Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 look at the stuff there's on the both front and rear, it's the difference:P also the crap inside it is different from the other Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for your help man, I'll turn one of them into a rake of coal cars. As far as the locomotive itself would go, perhaps i can make a seperate model for it and attatch it to the front or something? Or is it more advanced than that?

monster875. Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 it's hardcoded into the game. but u can try making a locomotive with wagons work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
universetwisters Posted September 11, 2012 Author Share Posted September 11, 2012 so, make seperate articulated models and make a new path for them? That might work...And it would give the mod a more "alive" feel! now i just gotta find out how to make locomotives and train cars in 3dmax anyway, thanks for the pointers! Anything else i should know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
