Chris Sawyer Locomotion -Sleepstone to Broomworth part1

[ArcRaven13]

These/this is a mod(s) right?

[zimmlock]

@ArcRaven13 Right

[LegoMovieMan44]

What do you use to record?

[zimmlock]

@LegoMovieMan44 use HyperCam2 to record, the scenario is Penninsular World

[LegoMovieMan44]

Thats alot of trains.

[LegoMovieMan44]

What scenario?

[mbta145]

is this the download

[eyekandygirl]

where do i get those trains im dying 4 them!

[zimmlock]

@eyekandygirl amitrains there you can find a lot of addons

[MrJetstar98]

@zimmlock which folder do you put the add-ons in.

[zimmlock]

@MrJetstar98 all go to ObjData folder

[zimmlock]

@3601Ruben okay you have to select all .dat and drag them in it-wrapper, that ll out put 2 files normal and non breakdown or what ever you have selected, the content of that file you have to copy in to your object file and over wirte all. Then the non breakdown ll not work in your saved games, unless you remove a train from the tracks and replace it. I dont see my train stops verry long at a station.

[zimmlock]

@3601Ruben Ruben, dont drag a saved game in the wrapper, you have to drag .dat files from you Objdata folder in the wrapper

[santapaulateen3501]

Dam it I can only get the money and date MOD

[zimmlock]

@santapaulateen3501 look at AMItrains

[zimmlock]

@3601Ruben there is a tool named lt-wrapper for locomotion, with this tool you can remove the breakdowns, visit tt-forums lots of info there, mods, additional trains, scenarios, tips and help

[sniperkillheadhunter]

BNSFandSP that train is first away

[sniperkillheadhunter]

zimlok that is right my oom has more than 50 meter of LGB

[eyekandygirl]

@zimmlock i wish i were u <=(

[BNSFandSP]

Why is the loco next to our train tender first at 3:22?

[zimmlock]

@BNSFandSP because its reversed

[sniperkillheadhunter]

@BNSFandSP that train is firts and short

[AceAviations2]

Cool video, and I have 3 things to say about it.

1. I have the game and I didn't know about any custom stuff.

2. I've used similar systems and ran into MANY problems, I don't know how it works for you.

3. The long time for travel cuts down on the vale when it finally reaches the station, so you're losing money.

[legomaker8]

what senario? and what downloads u use?

[zimmlock]

@legomaker8 Scenario: Peninsular world, mods most of Plastikmans and the german station set

[TheTrainman888]

do you think you can send me a zip file of those engines with those sounds?

[zimmlock]

The map has the same size as allways, but the landscape zigzags over the map, this way its like you are on a hudge map.

[Boyninja616]

How did you make the map so huge?

[Animefan6201]

Dude.. you are the rail king!

I've played the game before, and I could never reach such awsomeness with my trains...

But, what is the point of said trains blowing their whistles before entering a tunnel?

[zimmlock]

@Animefan6201 Thats normal in real life, train allways blow there whistle before entering a tunnel

[dougchristilund]

is that a bigboy i see in8:54?

[zimmlock]

@dougchristilund No its a UP 2-12-4

[ron177188]

dang i play this too it not like this

[KNGarver]

Ell, I wish I had this mod. My son plays the game a lot, and he says he's tired of trains 20 miles down the line stopping for trains on the other end.

[DragonGamer9]

@KNGarver I wish I remembered where I put the disk. D:

[TheTrainman888]

how did you change the whistles on your engines?

[Suppersin1994]

Do you have another part?

[sorrow2112]

Yay I'm Not the only one who plays this game!

[about82chipmunks]

this was the first computer game i ever got and that was back in 2003 now its 2011 and im still playing it

this beats COD HALO GOW any game you can imagine this game would beat it

[3838jr]

nevermind i found it :-)

[zimmlock]

hycam2

[TheIronlefty]

what recorder?

[zimmlock]

its with a lot of add-ons you can find most of them at amitrains

[1011340]

what version that is because i have it but there are different stations and differends building(not all) but do you have some special version or what?

[51HHMD]

I got this game again a while back and there's this annoying thing with the signals. Like if a train leaves a station and a signal tells it to stop and the train that is also gets stopped. Or it will stop even if there's no train near.

[51HHMD]

@zimmlock Do you have any way to like send them to me though? Because I'll buy them off of you or something.

[51HHMD]

Do you thi

[3838jr]

really, where do u get this?

[51HHMD]

Hey, where did you get these? Can you send them to me? I am tired of the original sounds and etc. and I would love to have these. Just give me the link.

[zimmlock]

@51HHMD there is no link i made them like this my self

[Dudefish55]

I love this scenario! I just downloaded it a week ago. One question though. Every time that I make a sloped track, my fast trains slow down to 60 mph to go up or down it. Is there a way to change this with locomod or a download so my trains don't have to slow down?

[zimmlock]

@Dudefish55 the best way is to use the "highspeed brickbridge" you can find at the tt-forums viewtopic.php?p=378719#378719

[Alanzu1]

Thiste mapa esta muy simple, todo el terrano esta flato, hay no ningun reto, ni competencia aqui, tryta a otros mapas con mas reto.

[celica825]

where do u download this?

[algopa94]

amazing!

[sixstrings2]

Wow, with all those tracks inner twined It must have been terrible to set up the route waypoints..........

[baneskrbic]

Too bad you cant use same trains or vehicles after long time.A fix or rebuild option would be great in new locomotion as well as new vehicles(models not types) and maybe planing so I can first see how the road or rail will look like than build it at once instead segment by segment.

:\ I have to give 3.8\5 for Locomotion.Not a wast improvment from its predecessors.

[zimmlock]

@baneskrbic There exists a tool that makes your trains non obsolete, its name is IT-wrapper for locomotion. There allso is a tool to build while the game is paused named Autopause, these two make life in Locomotion a lot more easy.

[PSNPete1991]

@zimmlock Where could I go about getting these?

[zimmlock]

@Waffliner Hey, you have no flow, trains have to wait to long and turn around go to tt-forums locomotion department there are many more screenshot maybe you can learn from them.

[JettRaider]

I own the actual game, but this is so much better.

[erdna569]

Can someone give me some pointers on this game? i always end up llosing money and profit and usually go bankrupt

[zimmlock]

@erdna569 Start with a single track short line, preferable transporting coal, deploy 1 train with 4 cars, now extend this line to make it a loop to have roro station, buid a second load station and extend the unload to 2 track, deploy a train at the new station, slowly extend the trains with cars 6 or 8 is enough, deploy 2 more trains one on each load station. Now its time to be patient and to pay back your loan totaly, if you can build a tram in a town it helps. do not borrow any more money.

[erdna569]

@zimmlock my main problem is with placing the signals,most of the time i see the single signals but im not sure which way to place them.

[klm88a]

Very complicated route, usually TRAINS ALWAYS lost their way WHEN MANY ARROWS on stations

[klm88a]

What programm u captured this video . wtf,my fraps did black video only in this game.

[zimmlock]

@klm88a i use for all my clips hypercam2. My trains dont get lost, it depends on the way you build your tracksystem and how you place your signals.

[ShypkusPIes]

Do you use trains only, or do you use all sorts of vehicles?

[zimmlock]

@ShypkusPIes i use mainly trains and trams, trucks and busses i use as scenery, i have a few scenarios i use airplanes and ships i do not use.

[laytonj519]

Zimmlock, how do you make stations that long?

[zimmlock]

Hi there it takes me about a 100 game years to build all of this and i run the game at least for an other 100 years, improving all track work, i dont have the savegame any more, to bad i lost it.

[legomaker8]

How long did it take you to build this whole rail line, and how much cash did you have?

[DotCmaker01]

at wich year is this??

[legomaker8]

how do you get the downloads for the steam locomotive?

[jaws12413]

where did you get the Daylight?

[sUpErShIeFbOy]

why isnt it pulling the daylight cars

looks like its pulling the empire builder

[zimmlock]

no i didnt, but you can add them with LocoMod if you want.

[time2die99]

@zimmlock How do you do this upgrade from the old locomotion, i have the original....where can i download or get the add-on to make it look like your upgraded locomotion. please respond

[12194Carlos]

You didn't released the Serpent Scenario with these kinds of trains?

[legionofdoom2009]

Locomotion sucks. OpenTTD is infinitely better and will only keep on getting better as time goes along.

[darksniper720]

I suck at this game

[TheDaggelito]

wich is the biggest city by population

[fierknight]

how do you do so well any tips

[zimmlock]

@fierknight Build a system not short tracks, connect all industry to the system. Allways build 2 loading stations at each industry, preformence and production ll increase.

[MysticDragonForce]

@zimmlock What do you mean by 'building a system'?

[unknownguy44]

@fierknight dude, just start by building trains, u should have lots of cash to do almost anything after

[TheAcamapichtli]

aber ein solch langer personentransport lässt die preise auf null sinken -.-

[zimmlock]

@hectobar They are available at AMItrains dot co dot uk dl plastikman's stuff, the Dekosoft-UP pack the gantrys are in the provo scenario

[hectobar]

@zimmlock Much apreciated my good man! and sorry to hassle you but this map seems incredible huge?

[zimmlock]

@hectobar Hey you can find the gantrys at AMItrains. co. uk dl all Plastikmans stuff. To have them in game you need to edit your trackst.dat or install the Provo scenario

[DarkWolfe117]

i would like to know how to get a free copy of this :) i lost mine and i really love this game ): i want to play this again ): ): ):

[leia3427]

i have a question, how do i add .dat files to the game i read the readme on most my packs and they dont give a good enough explanation. please respond!

[zimmlock]

@leia3427 it depends if you have a installer it ll add the .dat to your Objdata file if not you can just copy them to your file. Dont forget, before you start to add files to make a backup of you original objdata file.

[baneskrbic]

@leia3427

erm...put .dat in Data folder.Go to Scenario editor and under vehicles (if its what you mean) tick your vehicle from list.You can edit scenario than tick those new vehicles and overwrite with original.After the date of inventing comes,new train will show up in buy menu :p

MAKE BACKUP!

[Fabiolycose54]

yee

[Danhelll]

How come your train doesn't lose speed drastically on ramps/curves?

[zimmlock]

@Danhelll they do but not to much, i use highspeed track and enough locomotives, i allso try to avoid building ramps and if i have to not more than 1 in a train lenght

[zimmlock]

Its just many years experiance in building tracks

[leia3427]

How do you come up with these layouts they're amazing :D!

[DesertRidgeline]

The thing that really blows in thei game (not really seen here in the video of course) is the crazy trains that the AI builds. They build more rollercoasters than the do train rails.

[sUpErShIeFbOy]

you have a lot of trains how do you get so much money (no mods or cheats off course) to buy all these trains and tracks?

anyway, its an awesome video!

[51HHMD]

Were you controling the train or just following it?

[legogeek55]

hi Zimmlok,

Can you do a tutorial soon on the highly advanced lines? (and BTW very nice trains!) not to mention that how do get the higher number of trains you can select in scenario editor?

[Alfonzia18]

is there a easy way to get alot of money

[zimmlock]

there is a cheat program named Loco Trainer that can do the job, but its more fun not using it, start with running coal and a tram in a town. That ll do the job

[Alfonzia18]

@zimmlock how does it works

[meaddictproductions]

how do u make a nice bridge like that like right at begining? me its just an ordinary bridge... or is it a mod -.-

[zimmlock]

Thats a combination of two default bridges

[zimmlock]

Hi, in the beginning it was me who added running sounds to steamers, i had individual whitles to, now Plastikman uses several sounds of me including the runningsound.

[kingmush3602]

Hey, zimmlock, one question.

How did you get all locomotives to have the

blast pipe running sound, is that a Plastikman update to the Megapack?

[3838jr]

what mod is this?

[alkamos]

hey nice video but at 1:47 can u plz tell me the site u got that grass ramp cuz i use to have it but i cnt remember what site i got it from

[zimmlock]

Select the passenger base plate at the trackselection and just do like you build a bridge, there you can select the station roof. Sometimes it doesnt fit then you have to move your station one or two tiles.

( i dont remember the year)

[lrac000]

what year is this

[lrac000]

I got THE SERPENT but i has a lot of mods and how do u get the station roof

[railfanatic844]

I realised that you used Empire builder coaches instead of daylight coaches. Why?

[mananmater]

shiity game

[hugothenerd]

Looks exacly like RCT

and thats good :D

[Videomaker326]

This is same make/owned

[hugothenerd]

A mod?

[Paublo79]

thats the coolest thing ive ever seen

[vblogger08]

i have that game it's awesome

[loydrafols]

dude can u PM me a link of the mod i kinda screwed up my locomotion game k thanx :D

[zimmlock]

The name of the map is THE SERPENT you can find it at the tt-forums locomotion section, saved games and scenarions.

[zimmlock]

Hi, this map is unfortunatly corrupted. But i have uploaded (yesterday) to the forums an upgrade of this map and it ll be released as a scenario aswell in the near future.

[howfarwecame]

in my game, everythings reliability goes down after a while, but i have so much stuff that i dont want to replace it all. How do i fix this?

[TehBenshiGuy]

Oh, you really gotta upload more videos like this. I'd like to see a few 50s diesel action, like some F7s and GP9s and RS3s fanging around.

[TehBenshiGuy]

Try lurking on the Transport Tycoon forums and ask there.

[MetroidMaster56]

How did you manage to get stations that accommodate such long trains, and how did you get the signals to pass over several sets of track? Is is also possible to get large outputs of commodities like oil, coal, and iron ore from the companies? Those are some amazingly long trains, and the track is so complex, you are really good. 5/5 stars.

[TehBenshiGuy]

I might have an answer for the last question. When you make a long train, sometimes it won't let you put it on straight track. It will however maybe work on a curve or a medium length bridge. That works for me anyway

[MetroidMaster56]

But Zimmlock has really long stations, how did he do that? And where did he get Gantry's?

[TehBenshiGuy]

I reckon he must've fiddle around with the files or something, I only know it goes 16 tiles long.

[MetroidMaster56]

And how did he get his long trains to fill up so fast?

[TehBenshiGuy]

I've no clue there, it takes say 6-8 months for an ordinary 30-car 1965 hopper coal to fill up, but if you put a few coal mines together so they can all be linked by one station, it definitely increases the production rate, I know because I've tried this. Works with iron ore, grain, livestock and oil too.

[MetroidMaster56]

Sweet , thanks. Is it possible to make all the trains selectable?

[TehBenshiGuy]

No, there is a 224 game limit when setting scenarios. It sucks. =(

[fffmalzbier]

How log did it take to build the landscape ?

[zimmlock]

You cant  expand the map, this map looks bigger than normal because the landscape i made is layed like a serpent

[FAKJoshi]

awesome, respect :-D

[wwwKx]

incredible :D 5/5

[looppia]

what i mean is if you look at 0:46 there are lines that end with buffers, its purely cosmetic, they look nice when you have sidings etc. am guessing its a patch or something

[zimmlock]

the buffers are infact signals drawn as buffers, you cant just add them you have to make changes in your trackst.dat file.

[Hodnux]

Wow, I'm impressed :D

[looppia]

How do you put buffers on the end of tracks? i have the uk version

[Hodnux]

If a station is at the end of the line, it automatically has buffers in effect

[optimuspenguin2]

cool

[zimmlock]

Yeah its worth asking :-) in a attempt to create a larger map i have made a world that consist out of 5 penninsulars, i do not bridge the water and drive all along the rim, suggesting its a bigger map.

[bennythenoob]

Why does it look like you have got a bigger map than me? It may be due to that the train window is smaller than the locomotion window, but it's worth asking. =)

[jimmyp42002]

LOVE IT! Dang, what a networks there lol

[pergold]

you play locomotion better than me.

[MilwaukeeRoad261]

where did you get the Union Pacific FEF's?

[ps4games]

I like how you stack your trains in this one. I was actually going to reinstall Locomotion today and play it over the weekend. Then decided not too. I'm going on vacation on Tuesday for three weeks, so I guess I could go back into it when I return. I have some map building skills like yours..good map, good variety landscape.

[MilwaukeeRoad261]

where did u get the union pacific 4-8-4s?

[zimmlock]

Sorry i have to disappoint you, there is no "open" version of locomotion, i played TTDP and OTTD before but i like the locomotion more because of the look, regardless the limitations it has compaired to OTTD. BTW i am the creator of TTRS.

Best regards

Zimmlock

[lobotomius]

I tried to convince myself once again to Locomotion thanks to Your movie, but unfortunately, I'm too much accustomed to OTTD possibilities :(

And indeed it looks much better.

TTRS is very neat and I like it very much :)

[lobotomius]

Massive network!

Btw - is there a open source version of this game, like Open Transport Tycoon Deluxe? I just love OTTD, but this game looks even better.

[ohiosouthern]

where can i get all of the Engines and buildings.

[WrongRoadRailways]

Where did you get all the mods for Locomotion?

[Dog0ffHisLeash]

10 min to get from one side of the map to the other.... insane.. nice network. It would take me a month to build all that.

Nice steamers by the way :P

[zimmlock]

Muwah, this is part 1 it goes only have way.

So its even worse than you think, LOL
