Holy smokes! That's a beauty! I can wait, too.

Not sure they ever made a narrow gauge Willie.

Re: My 3DC locomotives in 3' NG

Been experimenting with steam leaks and came up with these two tiny ones.

The whistle is using the smaller of the two but is a bit hard to see.

Re: My 3DC locomotives in 3' NG

Simply put, I can't have it in "time" or "speed" mode while simultaneously in "anim" mode. I'm having similar problems at the present time but, I'll figure something out eventually... I may need to go with 8 attachment points to get things working. You'll need 12. LOL :D

Re: My 3DC locomotives in 3' NG

Well, I got some steam effects attached to the cylinders, thanks to Norm, again but I now want the steam to stop when the train starts to pull off. I've been playing around with all the different adjustments and modes in the config file according to the CCG but all to no avail. I can't stop it, now....

Re: 3DC rolling stock in 3' NG

Just a note to say that I have officially released my Blacksmith Car and couplers. Everything seems to be working as planned but I'm going to wait on releasing them anywhere else for now. Who knows, something bad may still pop up that I've overlooked. Direct link, http://www.geocities.com/thegrindre...
