Yeah nah we gotta get the Cuban railway liveries

wraith kiln
#

that's been the GDR-one, i guess.

#

"Ferkeltaxe"

ocean roost
#

Wohooo

#

But its the Vt95?

bright flame
#

Im going to do this

#

😂

wraith kiln
#

there's no visible difference between VT 95 and 98 at OTTD-Scale.

bright flame
#

what..... 😀

#

just dosent feel right

ocean roost
#

this is very important 🌚

desert python
#

Doesn't E19 too dark on red one? 🤔
Also not happy with black lines on 181... Not sure why one is missing.

#

Great one!

ocean roost
#

Wait

#

i noticed something odd about the ICE 1 layouts...

#

Until 2002, when the new livery came for the ICE 1, they had 8 B coaches, one WR and 3 A coaches

#

after that, they had 7 B coaches, one WR and 4 A coaches

#

the LDV-ICE has 6 B coaches, one WR and 2 A Coaches

#

maybe you can change it @wraith kiln

wraith kiln
#

Although more "realistic"(cursed word), I guess this would cause more confusion than necessary. I'd like to leave it as is for now, and keep possible changes for sometime later.

wraith kiln
desert python
#

Maybe, or maybe it's too dark on that screenshot

nocturne wyvern
#

do we have that 261

ocean roost
#

nope

modest forge
#

just wanted to ask how do you guys create the models?

stray nova
#

A tool called magica voxel

#

We then convert them to sprites using a custom script made by Timberwolf

ocean roost
#

its done

#

Current state of new Luggage Cars

ocean roost
#

The next luggage coach is in progress

ocean roost
#

Oy, just a spoiler for my next projects

stray nova
#

Use the liveries I already put up

#

For the RS1

#

Its the same design

ocean roost
#

i´ll

modest forge
outer saddle
#

search the timberwolf tutorials on youtube

#

isk if that is the one. i remember it as multiple video's but may be wrong

modest forge
#

found them, but he doesn't explain how to calculate the length

#

for example, i want to model the ET 2010 (https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/ET_2010), which is 37.03 m long, 4 m high and 2.65 m wide (i couldn't find measurements for the singular cars). how big would i make the model?

stray nova
#

66 64px 4/8
82 80 5/8
98 96 6/8
114 112 7/8
132 128 8/8
148 144 9/8
164 160 10/8
180 176 11/8
198 192 12/8
214 208 13/8
230 224 14/8
246 240 15/8
255 256 16/8

These are the Vox to in game pixels

#

With the proportions to the actual train

#

I think we did it so that 60cm is 1 vox

#

But don’t quote me

modest forge
#

k thx

#

uhm 60cm/1vox would make the train 4.4 vox wide

stray nova
#

You could work back and figure out the length of a train and count the vox in that length

quaint stump
#

Hello, I found all the cargo aging periods of wagons and passenger cars in GETS are default. Could you add longer periods for 1st-level passenger cars, ICE, and refrigerated wagons? This is important because in the newer version of OpenTTD, long time transit would be no profit. Thanks!

wraith kiln
#

I might add that somewhere down the line, but currently it's not on my list of things. Mostly since I neither know of a documentation nor do is there some go-to values.

quaint stump
outer saddle
#

I would do percentages above and below default.

wraith kiln
#

I know how to code that, for sure. But knowing the default value doesn't necessarily make you know a good value for a 1920-s express coach.

outer saddle
#

but yeah you need to determine a balance first... with a big spreadsheet probably

wraith kiln
#

Yeah, the balance is the main problem. That takes a lot of time, and time is unfortunately a very scarce resource on my side ATM.

mortal bobcat
#

Multi-voltage GETS when?

wraith kiln
#

German chancellor Olaf just announced that beginning 1910, all German trains are converted into multi-voltage trains 😛

#

More seriously: I saw your multi-voltage sukts (great work btw). Multi-Voltage stuff might be an option, but same as cargo ageing: time is a scarce resource atm

mortal bobcat
#

Fair

#

I wouldn't mind making a PR if someone makes a list of what voltages different locos have

stray nova
#

Oooooh ummmm that should be pretty simple just going through wiki looking at voltages

wraith kiln
#

Even simpler: everything that's not a "18x" or "19x" should be 15kv 16 2/3 Hz

#

Questions that rise up:
-Do we just do Multisystem as "ELRL"?

  • How about running/purchase cost - needs changes?
  • additional models? As of per today there is no need to distinguish between vectron and MS-Vectron, etc.
mortal bobcat
#
  1. Would be SAAE and then ELRL If it isn't ac 15 and 25 only in which case it would use NORD
  2. Would be separate issue imo
  3. I am Lazy so would just do multisystem
wraith kiln
#

2 and 3 are kinda connected to each other. I do think, there should be a difference in costs though. (even if that's cosmetic, money doesn't matter...)

Gimme some time, I'll think about all that Jazz.

stray nova
#

That’s all that goes for visual differences

#

The 2 panto one should be done and we already have the 4 panto ones

desert python
desert python
wraith kiln
desert python
#

Well, yep. 4 panto... MS vectron then...

desert python
wraith kiln
#

did it ever get a new front?

wraith kiln
#

Success for SMITS.

Also works with NuTracks, SUKTS, Timberwolfs Tracks and CZTR. What else should it be tested against?

mortal bobcat
#

xUSSR rails maybe

#

Do you have any locos which can use 15 and 25 kv only?

wraith kiln
#

like AC only, no DC? nope

#

all the Multisystem locos are "everything that's a wire"

mortal bobcat
#

ok I thought I saw some on wikipedia

stray nova
#

Well

#

I think 800v ohel would like a chat

mortal bobcat
#

oh no

wraith kiln
#

There you have the reason for not digging TOO deep into that stuff.

stray nova
#

There are some wacky voltages that use wires

#

Really wacky

wraith kiln
#

Most modern locos at least have the option to order them with the desired voltage

stray nova
#

Like realistically it should only be between 3k DC and 25k AC

#

Those two should be global standards

#

Plus 800v 3rd rail

mortal bobcat
#

why would you ever want dc tho?

stray nova
#

Less power required?

#

Idk

wraith kiln
#

xUSSR works, too.

Only thing that doesn't work is V4 CEE tracks

#

but that's since V4 does define it's own ELRL-type AND additional voltages. Don't think there is a way to work around that, but i may be corrected.

stray nova
#

Doesn’t Dutch tracks have a decent multi voltage system?

#

Or am I being dumb

wraith kiln
#

Ah you're right!

stray nova
#

I remember it having good details with axle weights also

wraith kiln
#

on dutch tracks, 15KV-trains run on 25KV, sicne it doesn't define 15KV-rails., but not on standard DC-rails. Multisystem engines run on all available tracks.

stray nova
#

Hmmmmm ok

quaint stump
#

When using dutch trainset without dutch trackset, Eurostar does not speed easily

wraith kiln
#

that's fine for me - 25KV-AC is the fallback if Trackset doesn't define 15 KV

#

the way it works right now is 15KV AC -> Falls back to 25KV AC -> Falls back to "has wires"/ELRL. enough compatibility if you ask me. Other opinions valid ;)

quaint stump
#

But the question is how dutch set regards the default electrified track

wraith kiln
#

default in netherlands is 1,5Kv DC, therefore everything works as intended.

desert python
#

Speaking of voltages...
Tri-phase when? 🤣

#

Die Triebwagen 2051/2052 der Preußischen Staatsbahn waren zwei Triebwagen für den Versuchsbetrieb auf den Versuchsbahnen der Zweigbahn Schöneweide–Spindlersfeld und Oranienburger Versuchsbahn.
Sie gelten als die ersten Triebfahrzeuge in Deutschland, die mit Einphasen-Wechselstrom mit dem Stromsystem 6 kV 25 Hz betrieben wurden. Bestellt und geba...

#

That's what I thought

nocturne wyvern
#

it was also quite hard to get AC onto the wires back in the day

#

it simply was cheaper to get DC

#

until it wasnt

#

something about keeping the hz consistent

desert python
#

Early 25 kV AC locos had mercury convertors, thus gas masks were required in initial start up and in case of fault.

#

Germany had lower frequency (16 2/3 vs 50-60 Hz), thus didn't need convertors in locos but had to have them on power sub-stations.

#

In some cases dedicated power stations were built

outer saddle
desert python
#

Rectifiers it is... Didn't know how those called in English.

outer saddle
#

its was just easier to put the big heavy rectifiers in a building along the track then in a loco. making the loco much simpler

desert python
#

DC have higher loss over distance and catenary itself is more expensive (much more copper required).

But locomotives themselves were simplier.

outer saddle
#

yes and there are a few more DC issues. because above can be solved by going high voltage DC. (25kv DC for example.) But there was no tech yet to switch HVDC, because arcing. Nowadays we got stuff like Solidstate switches for HVDC, and DC longdistance transmission has actually less loss then AC.

desert python
#

But you don't want to fry your passengers, don't you?

mortal bobcat
#

don't those require cooling?

desert python
outer saddle
#

everything requires cooling. big part of loco's is just cooling

desert python
#

There were 6kV DC tests in USSR which were unsuccessful.
A lot of arching and burnt wires aren't great for daily use.

#

To make things worse - early 50's EMU were used that had trapaulin roofs...

outer saddle
#

yeah that is the issue with hvdc and a panto. you get arc much easier causing welding effect and melting/damaging the panto and wire. An AC arc much easier self extinguishes.

desert python
#

That's aslo a reason why there is no DC HS rails anywhere.
Max speed is 250 km/h, usually never goes above 200.

outer saddle
#

well you could easily go above it.

#

French ran over 300kmh record runs under 1500v

desert python
#

You'll end up with either broken panto or burnt wire with 3 kV

outer saddle
#

its just not worth it, the wear and heating of wires make it much more compicated then just useing AC.

nocturne wyvern
#

the 10 kv ZHESM electric trains required atleast half an hour of doing nothing in a station to make a trip from rotterdam to scheveningen
in the summer this could be up to 2 hours

outer saddle
#

sound more like a design flaw of inadequate cooling.

nocturne wyvern
#

I believe it was the highest voltage used at the time

#

for a train

#

no wait in 1904 the swiss started with 15kv

outer saddle
#

I wonder how the electical schema of the motorcars looked.

nocturne wyvern
#

I believe the utrechts archief might have that

outer saddle
#

10kV 25hz. sounds like it may have used AC motors. Nvbs and likely utrechts archief yes.

nocturne wyvern
#

the location of all the westhinghouse leidingen

#

presumably the brakes

outer saddle
#

Before or after rebuilt. they were extensively modified.

nocturne wyvern

1908

#

schema luchtdruk schakeling

outer saddle
#

May very well have been the orignal electric was a small tapchanger transformer and AC motors. The original motors werent powerfull, so it could all be pretty compact.

nocturne wyvern

1925, last edited 1941

outer saddle
#

1925, thats when 1500v already

nocturne wyvern
#

they were rebuild in 1926

#

but considering it was edited in 1941, means that it might still be rebuild

outer saddle
#

yeah and the design drawings will have been made before the actual rebuilt

bright flame
#

Hi! Does Germany have these trains?

nocturne wyvern
#

no it doesnt

bright flame
#

Ok thank you

#

DB cargo has some in romania and I tought that there were in germany too

outer saddle
#

They are romanian 25kV loco's these cant even run in germany.

#

Idk if the greencargo sweden transmontana's are allowed to go into germany???

#

There are transmontana with austrian approval i think.

nocturne wyvern
mortal bobcat
#

They can according to Wikipedia but I doubt they do as they are mostly used for heavy steel trains iirc

#

seams they aren't fitted with danish atc

bright flame
#

I think there is a smaller variant of these locos. I think that ones can run on 15kw

Guys, i was playing League of Legends recently... aaand what does League and those Trains have in common? 😛

stray nova
bright flame
#

These are the locos that they own

#

I think that this is a separate company, that was funded by DB

nocturne wyvern
#

they have a subsidiary for every country

bright flame
#

Oh

#

Also, do you want to put the ludmilla or br 232 in the newgrf?

nocturne wyvern
#

the 232 did operate in germany, so thats coming some day

bright flame
#

Oh ok

#

Thx

desert python
#

Not soon as it's DR stuff.

stray nova
#

Don’t do DR shit yet

#

We need to finish DB

desert python
#

Only 112 may end up in GETS as I understand, because it was co-founded by DB and DR and was manufactured after merge.

bright flame
#

Yeah, I understand. There is very much work

desert python
#

Modern: 152, 102, 127, 128... All others are early and we are pretty much covered there.

stray nova
#

Wdym? Because the only recent thing I done is ICE-L

#

Or the talgo set

desert python
stray nova
#

Can’t be much more steam and wagons left

#

The Restaurant cars aren’t in yet

#

Sleepers

#

Lint, Better Flirt 1, Flirt 2, Kiss 1&2, Twindexx, IC2

#

That’s pretty much all the modern shit I can think of atm

#

Flixtrain is in

#

Maybe we could do Locomore and the Connex Connected set

#

MAK Di6

#

This consist is cool

#

Plus the advert Connex traxx i did. ages ago

outer saddle
#

Di6 is cool

wraith kiln
#

Sorry, late to the party again.

Concerning GDR-Stuff: If you guys draw stuff, I'll code stuff.

Concerning missing stuff:

  • more EMU's
  • more DMU's
  • more Steam Engines
  • more Goods Wagons
  • still a few coaches missing
  • Sleepers
  • Restaurant Cars

I'll hopefully be back with more time at my disposal within the next two weeks, so there'll be a speed up in coding.

stray nova
#

@wraith kiln u good with starting a DDR set?

#

I have Y-Wagens and Halberstadt done

#

Plus mitropa dining

wraith kiln
#

Yh, sure. I'll set up some code stuff in the next few days.

stray nova
#

Hell yeah

ocean roost
wraith kiln
#

I guess they count as "more DMU'S" ;)

ocean roost
#

Okay, then i correct myself: We need more DMU´S!

stray nova
#

LINT is really needed

ocean roost
#

aye, totally important

#

and desiro

stray nova
#

Yes

wraith kiln
#

Coding update: 182 and 183 done, ALEX-Stuff done, VT95 done

#

Next steps: VT96-trailer(s), Talgo, Dosto's and BR 102.

stray nova
#

I’ll do Dosto Alex tmrw

wraith kiln
#

Sven already did one :)

stray nova
#

Ah ok ignore me then

wraith kiln
#

just didn't code it before i'll do your new dostos ;)

stray nova
#

Yeah looking forward to seeing the HKX one

wraith kiln
#

same here, they be looking great from what i saw.

stray nova
#

This intrigues me

ocean roost
#

The mint luggage car is also almost finished soon, so we have about 5 more luggage car liveries (Dms and BDms)

Mint Dms is done and in the cloud

#

Ah

#

Its 798 btw 🙂

ocean roost
#

new livery for 2nd generation dosto 🌚🌚😂

stray nova
#

Is that actually 2nd gen?

#

Or third because that looks a bit more like a 3rd to me

wraith kiln
#

I'm coding the Bi-Levels. - @stray nova there is Nah.SH old and new, what's the difference? Or should they be used together?

stray nova
#

Old ones were painted in like 2015

#

The new ones have started popping up in the last year or so

#

They also look way cleaner in every image

wraith kiln
#

ah, thx. so old will be introduced in 2015, new ones in 2023

stray nova
#

Yeah some of the designs in this newer livery are for twindexx

#

I still haven’t seen an old lok hauled Dosto with the new livery and branding

#

If we ever do a bus set then yeah I can see this being really dann useful

Hello! Whats with this train lifetime is it supposed to be this long?

wraith kiln

No, that's an (already reported) bug, that'll be fixed in the next release.

I think I should fix the cargo age period independently. And I succeed.

wraith kiln
#

current coding status. Dosto 2nd Gen are WIP, DVT's will come later (Nah.SH needs to be drawn first :))

stray nova
#

do they have classic dostos in Nah.Sh livery

#

only twindexx

#

i could do fictional one

wraith kiln
#

you're right, i can't find a pic of them....

#

apparently the do nah.sh Dosto's and red DVT's:

ocean roost
ocean roost
wraith kiln
#

but while you're here: Do you know something about "Wagenreihung" of the Talgo-Trains?

ocean roost
#

Actually.... yes

#

wait´ve to look up the source material

wraith kiln
#

no hurries :)

ocean roost
#

Well... meh not really tho...They send us some flyer about the ICE-L but, they dont published a fix layout yet

#

But they have 17 coaches, so i suggest, one dining car, 5 first class coaches and 11 seconds class coaches

wraith kiln
#

that'll be "realistic" enough, i guess.

ocean roost
#

They have 85 seats in first class and 477 in second

#

so it would be four first class coaches and 12 second class coaches

#

they have a bike compartment, for eight bikes...

#

Wait

#

im doing some math right now

#

they have 24 seats in the bike coach

#

they have about 15 seats in the special faciltiy car

#

and they have 40 seats per normal second class car

#

44*

#

so those 12 second class coaches would cover it perfectly, then 1 dining car, and 4 first class coaches with 22 seats each

wraith kiln
#

Nice, thank you!

stray nova
#

do the 4 first class ones count towards the "DVT"?

ocean roost
#

oof i dont know

stray nova
#

so is it 15 with the dvt

#

i would think it is

ocean roost
#

ah now

#

no*

#

its 17 coaches, and the dvt is included

stray nova
#

ah ok

#

that makes sense

ocean roost
#

jooo

#

just a little question

#

Is the 403 planned? (the old one)

wraith kiln
#

Variations on a recurring Theme: Dosto finished

wraith kiln
ocean roost
#

märklin just published this, would be an interesting steam loco

ocean roost
stray nova
#

"Oh i might buy that"
"Oh...."

#

marklin is so damn expensive lmao

wraith kiln
#

I've got guitars that've been cheaper... :d

stray nova
#

i was looking at starting a Z guage layout and gawhdamn

#

its insane

wraith kiln
#

Z? That's fiddly AF. If ever, I'd do N scale. But even if it's cheaper, it's still expensive AF. Model trains really is a rich guz hobby nowadays:D

stray nova
#

yup

wraith kiln
ocean roost
wraith kiln
#

Had N scale stuff years ago, and that's even been to small for my meatfingers. Also, I wouldn't have the space for a proper layout 🤣

stray nova
#

hence why i wanted Z

ocean roost
#

ofc it isnt ready yet, but thats my plan for my layout, i´ve to set all tracks, but the sizes and the is final

#

I´ll also built it modular, so i can seperate it, when we are moving in the future

wraith kiln
#

I'm currently finalizing the Talgo.

Two questions:
1.) What's the official name now? I can find ICE-L, ECx, IC2 and right now i'm kinda confused.
2.) Should it be coded as an EMU/fixed consist or as loco + fixed set of coaches? First would allow reversing, second would allow to haul it with different locos.

bright flame
#

I would choose second, to haul it with different locos

stray nova
#

Loco with rake not a fixed set

#

And call it the ICE-L

#

What’s the loco classification?

wraith kiln
stray nova
#

Yeah so have the loco separate as BR105 and the set separate as ICE-L

wraith kiln
#

Alright. then lets have some lunch and some code.

ocean roost
#

just a little pic

ocean roost
#

There will be the Br 105

#

But they will also use the Dual-Mode Vectron for the destination Westerland-Hamburg and Oberstdorf-Augsburg

#

For the ICE Hamburg-Oberstdorf and Berchtesgaden, there will 2 trainparts, of 17 coaches each

#

so with 13,1 meters/ coach x 34, you can expect the length of such a train

#

Maybe, they will also produce other compositions with less coaches tho

wraith kiln

We're faster than the original - Talgo done (Testfile uploading to Testdrive)

I made it when I was doing the eurofirmas

Still Rheingold needs to get done

wraith kiln
#

Reason Diner Cars ain't in for now is mainly: there ain't enough to cover whole timeline. I wouldn't release with only three dining cars from 1950 onwards

ocean roost
wraith kiln
#

Yh, I'll need help on newer ones, but I good quite good sources for anything before 1980ish. That won't be in the next release (once at home, I want to pick up some loose ends on goods wagons first). But if we agree, that could be the major thing of the version after that.

ocean roost
#

perfect 🙂

wraith kiln

Ooof:D

stray nova

That was fine

Plus it’s one of the cool ones with the panto

#

Was debating weather to do it with panto up in a loading sprite but eh

stray nova

Shit shit shit shit shit shit

#

Ffs

#

Why did I do the IC graphics instead of ICE

desert python
#

ICE was done already

stray nova
#

Was it?

desert python
#

408 (ICE3Neo) is almost same as 407 (Velaro D).

#

All visual changes were with doors and I believe I made all wagons to make both 407 and 408

#

Yep, on drive.

ocean roost

ICE-Ts are badly missing

stray nova

TD’s more

#

If we are gonna add them DSB livery is required since they were still DB even then

ocean roost
#

I would love to draw the DSB livery then 😍

ocean roost
#

if i can find time and Motivation, i could draw this Talent2 livery

#

@wraith kiln just as a reminder i did 3 more talent liveries

im referencing on this pic

wraith kiln

looks fine for me :)

#

Isn't it the longer one? or was that just the sleepers?

ocean roost
#

uuuhm

#

i dont know 😒

#

the dining car is about 2 meters longer

wraith kiln
#

then it should be 1/8 longer i guess.

ocean roost
#

well..., i cant do that tho...

wraith kiln
#

shall i enlarge it or do you want some guidance?

ocean roost
#

If there is a tool, sure, i would be happy to do it by myself

wraith kiln
#

Allright, just lemme know if something is unclear, i'll do it in german then.

so first, OpenTTD-trains are measured in 8th's. this means, you can't just go ahead and make it as long as you want. To make it worse: GoRender doesn't exactly convert vx->px.
No worries, attached table will help. Just remember: Trains ALWAYS have to match exactly one of the vx-lengths in the table. We try to stick to a scale of 10vx = 1 Meter. If you do smth, rather make it bigger than smaller.

#

So the standard Schürzenwagen are 214vx (or 208pixel ingame or 13/8 tile lenght) - next step would be 14/8 lenght. This measuers as 230 vx.

Size of the actual voxel is in the upper right: Lenght, width (always 42vx!), height (doesn't matter that much).

#

just go there an make it 230 vx in lenght.

#

should look like this now.

#

switch to "Orth"-mode to have plain sideview and center it next:

#

center view is the icon 2 left of "orth" - that circle with an arrow.

#

if you got that down, switch to "Marquee select" - Hotkey: M. Now you can select a bunch of voxels. I'd suggest splitting the train somewhere "plain", so you don't have to redraw details.

#

did i like this:

ocean roost
#

Oha okay

#

ty very much, i´ll doi it after my game

stray nova
#

I use box select because that can be used for more precise movement

wraith kiln
#

on the right side there is an edit-Menu with quite a bunch of handy options. Pick "loop" to move your selection around the given axis. In this case: X-Axis.

#

Move both parts to the ends.

#

Franken-Schürze! Now, we need to fill up that stuff in between.

#

With the marked icon you can select a "face". This means, you'll extend/erase/paint all that is connected with the same colour.

#

like this. on Windows, ALT+Leftclick let's you pick up the color, btw. Now just extend until it's full.

#

Ta-Daa! you may now start with details

ocean roost
#

do you took it into the cloud? I would like to try to copy that coach by myself

wraith kiln
#

no, sorry i didn't save it.

ocean roost
#

its okay, then´ve to do it by myself x)

#

uiiii 🙂

stray nova
#

@ocean roost @wraith kiln do we have a euro runner done?

#

I like ALEX quite a bit

#

Having that would be cool

wraith kiln
#

nope, no Eurorunner

stray nova
#

Right ok what dining cars can people think of that we need

#

I have some DR ones done if your willing to add them to standard GETS

#

But yeah

ocean roost
#

After my game

#

i can line up some dining cars x)

stray nova
#

Yeah I would but I need a list of what we need

#

Vagonweb isn’t great atm

ocean roost

i´ll do it ^^

#

Those are the schürzen dining coaches

You can do these

ocean roost
#

yes 🙂

there are tons of coaches

#

the ARkimbz, you can do it as a InterRegio, InterCity and even a Flixtrain livery

#

there is even a new one

stray nova
#

Yeah I did these

#

WRmz 135 was cool because they have a panto

wraith kiln
#

how about these? (not complete)

stray nova
#

This should be easy

ocean roost
#

@wraith kiln Ty so much for that easy tutorial ❤️

wraith kiln
#

Nice!

ocean roost
#

aaaand only, if u have time

#

how can i copy one side of the coach, to mirror it on the opposite side?

stray nova
#

Select it using the brush select and go to the right hand side panel and click on mirror Y

#

You can also just click on mirror Y and it will mirror the whole Coach down the centre line

#

You can use any selection tool but it’s better to use brush since you can find tune it more

ocean roost
#

oooooh TY!

ocean roost
#

how does it look?

#

The Font "Speiswagen was too small for doing in detailing

exactly what i ment. Looks really good!

desert python

I'll change it, when im.home

desert python
#

you can change it on one and copy it to others

ocean roost
#

i can? oO

desert python
# ocean roost i can? oO

I always do that! Use box or other selection tool, press ctrl+c and swap model. Press ctrl+v and volia! Another neat thing is that if you don't unselect what you've copied you mae eraise everything except it with ease

but a warsteinerone would be good with the loco and container wynd made

stray nova

That’s all well and good but this could massively add to the amount of Eyecandy wagons

#

Also what the fuck did I draw that was beer related?

wraith kiln

Guess he's talking about the Warsteiner G2000 and the matching Container.

next one probably will be trapaulin versinos

wraith kiln
ocean roost
#

hehe 😛 shoudnt be a problem 🙂 Also international Liveries, or just german ones?

wraith kiln
#

Guess it'll be better to focus on German ones first.

ocean roost
#

okay

wraith kiln
#

But anything european would fit i guess.

ocean roost
#

so i´ll do those ones, when i´ve enough time

desert python
#

side note: trapaulin you've sent are different models

wraith kiln
#

@desert python do you want to Do the 6-axle ones or shall i?

desert python

shouldn't be hard to apply trapaulin from Rils to Shimmns though...

I´ll just do the liveries :x

Süd-Thüringen-Bahn Shuttle is almost done

#

i´ll also do the Erfurter Bahn Shuttle directly after that

wraith kiln

After that one, please let me check how much we have first. I'd like to avoid having too many of them ;)

ocean roost
#

after that?

wraith kiln
#

Yh that should really be the last one.

#

Combined with the others we then have 12 different liveries. I'm quite sure that's more than enough:)

ocean roost
#

i think so as well 😄

#

Erfurter Bahn is also done ^^ Its in the cloud

ocean roost
#

For those who are able to draw Steam locos: The Br 23 would be a good addition tho ^^

ocean roost
#

50s

#

i wanna recreate this train so badly 🙂

desert python
#

Hm... If BR 50 is done - shouldn't be hard to convert.

ocean roost
#

Maybe, there can be a "Theme" for the next update: "Neubau-Dampfloks" with the Br 10, 23, 65, 66 and 82

wraith kiln
#

well, teh "theme" for next update is restaurant coaches, isn't it?

ocean roost
#

Oooi

#

Right

wraith kiln
#

Regioshuttle's in, ET 87 in, released on Bananas (had a day off today):

ocean roost
#

I do a reddit post, about the update

wraith kiln
#

So we're gonna start with Restaurant Cars now, right?

Shall they only impact running cost or should i add something for cargo ageing, too?

stray nova
#

i think it should be an option

#

you could do both

wraith kiln
#

guess you're right. If it sucks i can still delete it :)

And: I never forgot about all those - they'll get coded quite soon :)

#

so cargo_age_period is default at 185. i'd increase that by 25% if a restaurant car is attached. Any other opinions?

desert python
#

Restaurants nullify running cost of other coaches but have a high running cost themselves

wraith kiln
#

Like twice?

ocean roost
#

Yup, should be okay, Dining cars uses also a lot more power than passenger cars (passenger cars 18V and dining cars 90 V)

desert python
wraith kiln
desert python
wraith kiln
#

4 coaches vs. 4 coaches + restaurant

wraith kiln
#

More data - seems to have a rather linear impact over all distances/speeds:

desert python
#

That's not likely it will be in game.
Train length is usually a limiting factor, so try 4+1 vs 5 (or better give a tile-limit for a train).

wraith kiln
#

i tried again with a different factor for cargo aging. And this seems to have a rather low effect at all

desert python
#

Same goes to distance vs time.

Cargo decay effects are offsets and are more noticeable on time-consuming travels.

wraith kiln
#

Factor up by 50 raises income by only 400ish

desert python
#

You may not notice anything of travel is too short or too long time vise

desert python
wraith kiln
#

why 90km/h?

desert python
#

That's how it works

wraith kiln
#

would be more logical to me to use a higher speed, since the Restaurants go into express trains

desert python
#

Cargo aging is noticable if your cargo spoils completely

#

In your tests passengers a "fresh" all time

#

They didn't have time to "spoil"))

#

If you don't like 90 km - use 60! Why not?)

wraith kiln
#

cause 90/60km/h is not the use-case

desert python
#

It is for a feature you applying)

#

Otherwise - replace restaurant with coach

#

It will give you more money

wraith kiln
#

okay, new test: 1000 Tiles distance. i'll try again 120,150,200km/h

#

after that i'll add 90

desert python
#

We did a lot of test fo xUSSRset few years back when were implementing cargo aging for different coach classes and with speeds over 120 km/h you need 800-1000 tiles long fully loaded trains to have any significant difference...

wraith kiln
#

first run at 200 shows 99k /w Restaurant, 72k without

desert python
#

Keep in mind you need excessive amounts of passengers waiting at stations without transfers to make it as accurate as possible

desert python
wraith kiln
#

4+1 vs 4

desert python
#

Try vs 5 as well

#

I bet it will give more money than 4+1

#

Well, according to your run... Should be aroun 90k

wraith kiln
#

at 120km/h its 74k vs. 39k

desert python
wraith kiln
#

Okay, so after all, Running Cost is the main influence a Restaurant Car has, and Cargo aging is that neat little sideeffect for the ones with 16*8k Maps :)

desert python
#

Cargo aging is bad as it's pretty unpredictable, have low impact on short time vise travels and may screw up with other sets (if any uses different values, looking at yiu, SSB set!).

wraith kiln
#

screwing up with SBB Set is not my biggest fear. Both don't really match concerning the scale.

desert python
#

It was in one JGR online game where anyone who used SSB wagons had drastically lowered income, because cargo in those insta-spoil.

wraith kiln
#

neat :D

#

So, do we need cargo aging as a factor? or is it wasted energy for little to no outcome?

desert python
#

Literally train with 0.6 of capacity and lower speed had x2 income yearly

wraith kiln
#

oh damnit :D

desert python
wraith kiln
#

allright, than i'd leave it at 1,25 default.

desert python
#

In most cases using one more coach instead of restaurants will be better.

wraith kiln
#

not if you want shiny red trains:

desert python
desert python
wraith kiln
#

they'll definetly be in, that's for sure. i'll calculate running cost 3,5the matching coach. That should keep the barrier of "i need restaurant" quite low.
Cargo aging will be 1,25
default - for now. If all of that turns out to be bad decisions: Code can always be changed :)

desert python
#

I'd say add more, balance later! 🤣

#

I should have a lot of restaurants models btw...

wraith kiln
wraith kiln
desert python
#

Do we have any 60's Reingold stuff?

wraith kiln
#

not (yet)

desert python
#

Anyone planning to do it?

wraith kiln
#

not as far as i know

desert python
#

Have 2 types of restaurants, 2 paintschemes of dome cars and all other wagons...

#

I.e. 2.5 full sets of Reingold of 60's and repainted TEE ones.

#

Will take a picture of those later... And probably make a models.

wraith kiln
#

well, that'll be another highlight of the set itself :)

On Reddit u/Zwangsbremse made a post about yesterday's update and in the comments I asked how to contact the developers of GETS. He told me about something in the developing section of this server, not sure if he meant this or if I miss something, but I guess you read my critic here.

First, your project is great and I would like to help you somehow. I have basic coding skills, but have never tried to do anything with openTTD. 6also don't know how to do visual arts. But what I do have is a lot of knowledge and I also work for DB. That's why I would like to be part of your team, to support you.

One thing that really annoys me when playing long games with GETS are the expiring dates. The BR120 never expires, while the BR101 has a limited lifespan. However, in real life the BR120 is already retired and the BR101 still has a few years to go. I guess you already have German train enthusiasts in your team, so I wonder how mistakes like this can happen.

It would be nice of you patch this and keep going on with the GETS project. It is great!

desert python
# whole root On Reddit u/Zwangsbremse made a post about yesterday's update and in the comment...

Hello!
Yes, that's where it is!

Garlic is one who code here and if you willing to help - ask him.

If you want to try to make graphics - it isn't that hard. MagicaVoxel is a tool used here and it's very easy to learn. If you'll have any questions with it - ask me.

BR 120 was one of first locos to be coded and had lifetime of 255 years until recently 🤣. It's not related to enthusiasm, more to lack of testing and feedback. It may still have some issues. Thanks for noting!

wraith kiln
# whole root On Reddit u/Zwangsbremse made a post about yesterday's update and in the comment...

Hi There,

yes, critics are read and answered over here - so thanks for that and all the praise :)

Concerning the code-base, NML (the language, gets is written in) isn't that much complicated. The code is split up and quite easy to maintain. Have a look at the Github: https://github.com/GarlicBread42/GETS

For the train-knowledge, help is always welcome. I've got a good chunk of sources for older stuff, Wikipedia and the "Obermayer" as well as "Carstens" provide good technical data. What all of them do not cover to a full extent is that modern stuff - so if you're fine with it, there will be some questions.

For the expiring date: I try to match the vehicle life with the date of "Ausmusterung" - going out of service - in case it is a short-living one. For the longer ones i just take 40 years. Model life (the timespan, how long the vehicle is available in buy menu) is quite complicated to calculate and even harder to test. I do know that this isn't optimal at the moment, but i honestly didn't care too much for this issue. Guess it's slowly time to change that one.

I started a game with GETS in 1925 a few days ago and I have an idea that I also had before, but the update made it more important.

I have no idea if this can be implemented, but certain trains should be limited in number. Right now I unlocked the E19, one of my favourite trains, and it has potential to kill the variety. It is the fastest and one of the most powerful locomotives you have in 1939 and to be econimical it would be the smartest to replace every locomotive with the E19. When I started playing GETS a few months ago, in that time period I bought a lot Henschel-Wegmann-Züge because once you unlock the E03, there are no waggons that would allow the E03 to reach it's 200km/h top speed and the Henschel-Wegmann-Zug is the fastest you can get. (I actually don't know what they have done in real life. I guess they had special permissions for some Avmz or similar)

Having prototype vehicles only aviable in a small number would make them special, just like it was in real life. Also you would need to carefully choose where to use them in your network. Yes, it is just a game and in the base version you upgrade all trains once you have a new one. But in my opinion this could be a very interestening feature.

What do you think about the topic?

desert python
#

That would be interesting, if OpenTTD supported such limits.

wraith kiln
#

Concerning the topspeed: Until 1977 the whole DB-Network was capped at 160km/h. Even E03 wasnt allowed to go faster. Until the early 60s top speed was even lower with a max of 140. Rheingold stock had a special allowance to go 160.

Concerning your idea: nice idea in general, but not possible like Simo333 mentioned as the game doesn't have a mechanic to count vehicle-IDs on the map. Generally speaking there is a million ways to play that game and I don't want to implement features that'll limit other players too much:)

whole root
#

Okay, so the people who want it more realistic need to count them by themself. And while it is true that we had a limit of 140km/h for a long time, the E03 was going regularely 200km/h in 1965. It was just a small section between München and Augsburg where Siemens tested the LZB signaling system, but it is worth mentioning.

desert python
#

lol, forgot lights...

#

hm... is it intentional smoke in front?

I guess noone tested E19 as well...

However after 10/8 theres some compression and 12/8 will be the longest vehicle

the 052 is form of the Br 50, and after 1968, where they got their Computer Numbers, they got the Br 050, 051, 052 and 053

#

is a form*

#

And Btw... there is also the Br 42

#

and then there is the Br 41, who got in 1960 numbers as 041, 042 and 043 and 044

#

1968*

desert python
#

In other words: total mess

#

🤣

ocean roost
#

aye xD

#

But just hold on:

#

Br 41 (041, 042)

#

Br 44 (043, 044

#

Br 42 ( didnt got an EDV-Number)

#

Br 43 (DRG and only DR)

#

Br 45 (didnt got an EDV-Number)

#

Br 50 (050, 051, 052, 053)

#

Br 52 (didnt got an EDV-Number, but the DR operate them till the 80s)

#

Br53: Various Länderbahn Locos

#

Br 53 0001 (Complete different shit)

desert python
#

This one?

ocean roost
#

Yes

#

but wait

#

there is also this xD

desert python
#

But is this 53?

ocean roost
#

the "other" 53 in comparison

desert python
# ocean roost

Oh, wait... It's same but with condensation tender...
I have one!

ocean roost
#

Yes

#

And the 53 0001 only was a mysterious Prototype

#

But yeah, the 40s and 50s numbers are a pretty mess, because then 70s made them worse

#

the*

#

And im missing the 39 tho, such an important loco in the 30s till 50s

ocean roost
outer saddle
#

hmm what made the paint it this color

#

green/grey version of weisse lady

ocean roost
#

but also with this livery inspired

Small Coding update:

Added Eurosprinter, Integral and (new) BR 189 + UIC-X Half-Restaurant Cars.

#

now the Dining Cars get kind of complicated and i could need some help.

This is what I've got so far:

Arm 216/ UIC-X Half-Restaurant is introduced 1954. thats the one, which is drawn.

1962: "Rheingold-Buckelspeisewagen" -> this is clear.

#

1964 is WR4ümh-64/Wrmh-132, looks like this:

I've found this one as DSG, as DB in plain red, TEE-colors, popfarben, oceanblue and "old" IC-colors.

#

Also: "DB Fernverkehr" - white ones with only red window ribbon.

#

does anyone know if they got recolourd/Rebuilt into smth else?

#

After this, there is 1966 "Arm 217"-> Kakadu's with straight roof, the ones wyndbain did. They've been in blue/red and TEE-colors.
I'm not sure, if they've been rebuilt, but i think not -> please enlighten me :)

#

After all, i'm missing the Interregio-Bistros and white IC Bord-Bistros. They seem smth different.

stray nova
#

these have been done already

#

or should have been

wraith kiln
#

i know they've been done. I'm trying to put them together in some kind of accurate and useful way from both gameplay + "reality" aspects

stray nova
#

oh right haha

#

well

#

just spit balling here but since these bistros are kinda worse than full bord restraunt cars they should only have a 50% decrease in running costs rather than 75%

wraith kiln
#

good idea :)

long frost
wraith kiln
#

3-part Eurosprinter?

long frost
#

Regiosprinter

#

Forgot it has a different name

desert python
#

Looks easy to make

#

Except that one

wraith kiln
#

ah gotcha, that one :)

wraith kiln
#

Back to Dining Cars - this is what i've go so far. I'd appreciate if you could take a look into it. Am i missing something?

#

(green= in game, grey=planned, orange=sprites done, but not coded)

wraith kiln
#

my perspective. i'm not in the position to speak for other people ;)

ocean roost
ocean roost
# wraith kiln these

i dunno, who was a fan of flixtrain... BUUUT the Master Coach of the Flix Train, Coach 100, is a modified ARkimbz

#

And, you forgot the ARkimbz of the Berlin-Warsaw-Express

#

and this is the ARkimbz in the Nachtzug-Livery

#

And here the BWE one

wraith kiln
wraith kiln
ocean roost
#

and the dining car was calles "Treffpunkt" and was quite visible in the train park

#

Here is an example

#

it was a WGtmh

wraith kiln
#

puh, where would that fit in the given types?

#

regarding the straight roof + the windows, i'd put that into Arm 217. Otherwise it would kinda fit into WRtm... idk yet

#

updated rooster. that's very full.

ocean roost
#

Aaah, maybe, its also time for modern post coaches now

#

And you could also add the half baggage and baggage cars i drawn earlier

ocean roost
wraith kiln
ocean roost
#

so its a bar type care

#

okay 🙂

wraith kiln
#

sounds like "special passenger coaches"

ocean roost
#

yup

wraith kiln
#

special passenger coaches != dining coaches i guess. So, not relevant for above table.

ocean roost
#

this is also a WGmz btw

wraith kiln
#

Another Song from the Future, i guess.

ocean roost
#

aye

#

Then i would draw the Deutsche Weinstraße

#

Rollende Weinstraße*

#

an d that could be a topic for the next ones as well x)

wraith kiln
#

i remember having that Kombiverkehr Book lying aroudn somewhere....

ocean roost
#

btw new livery for the dostos

wraith kiln
#

did they buy that from a primary school?

ocean roost
#

ideenzug of the südostbayernbahn

stray nova
#

i can do that

stray nova
#

its an attempt

wraith kiln
#

That was fast

stray nova
#

not really

#

oh well maybe

#

uploaded now if someone wants to test it in gorender

#

i have no idea how the mountains will look

wraith kiln
#

not bad, not bad at all.

#

if you're satisfied, i'll code this after dinner.

stray nova
#

yeah sure why not

#

its a decent addition

#

looks ok

#

use the ones on the drive they are updated and have correct first class areas

wraith kiln
#

done, new file uploading to the drive.

stray nova
#

@desert python are u gonna get the twindexx done any time soon?

gritty condor
desert python
wraith kiln
#

White or beige lettering?

acoustic lion
#

Not sure which is more accurate, but the beige looks much better imo

outer saddle
#

beige

desert python
#

Beige, maybe 1 shade brighter?

wraith kiln
#

1 brighter ain't possible, it's already the most bright beige :)

desert python
#

There is always yellow!

stray nova
#

its a start

#

very early design if someone wants to check it

wraith kiln
#

Side Window looks Good. Area around the Buffers must be wider.
Front window is too low.

And after all you're doing much better than all my previous attempts :D

stray nova
#

u think front is too low?

#

if anything i think its too high

#

redone the area around the buffers

wraith kiln
#

Not dure if it'll work, but I'd try to fill the blue line and move up the grey by one.

#

Sorry im on mobile:D

stray nova
#

like this?

wraith kiln
#

Better!

#

Ill give it a render once I'm home if you like.

Sorry for being picky

stray nova
#

no no

#

no issues

#

was asking what i could do better haha

desert python
#

Can I take a look at latest version?

stray nova
#

rekon that looks alright

ocean roost
#

Well...

#

when there is a Twindexx

#

There is a InterCity2

stray nova
#

i won't do it for a while but if u want the sprites are all here too be modified

#

should be reasonably easy

ocean roost
#

aye

desert python
#

I'd like to try some changes to front of Twindexx... Looks a bit wider than should.

stray nova
#

most updated versions are now on the Gdrive

desert python
#

In few minutes. Still from phone

ocean roost
#

We dont have the VT24/Br 624 yet? 😮

#

It has an interesting Gesellschaftswagen

stray nova
#

arent these italian?

desert python
#

Welp, Twindexx head powered wagons are shorter than all others...

nocturne wyvern
ocean roost
#

There was a similar DMU tho

stray nova
nocturne wyvern
#

this is something diffrent

stray nova
#

i realise now

#

they are similar tho

nocturne wyvern
#

this was the original before nose rebiuld

stray nova
#

I'm aware

ocean roost
#

The 624 was the Predecessor of the 614

#

They also could share the coaches of eachother and got coupled together

nocturne wyvern
#

the later the rebuild, the flatter the train

outer saddle
#

It's not a rebuilt. It's just a later series

#

668 vs 663

stray nova
desert python
#

Changed front part only... heavly

#

changed bottom a bit more...

#

Cut it to make shorter or not is up to you.

#

oh, there is two voxels on the roof I've missed... whatever.
