---MSTS EMD-1 CAB----

Hi, thank you for downloading my EMD-1 cab.

I hope you will enjoy it.

This is a photorealistic cab for the EMD Engines like the GP9, GP10, GP15, GP18, GP20, GP30, GP35, GP38, GP40, SD9, SD24, SD35, SD40, SD45 and many others, not the dash-2. 
Have a wide vision angle for a better realistic experience like the real life, six diferents modes of cabviews, three speedometers to choice.

All ace are my own creations except for the Right and left view original from Microsoft/kuju (reworked for me) and some controls and display indicators.
Combined control original concept by Dwight Mitchell and Ken Powers.

TO INSTALL:

1.     First and most important BACKUP and I do mean BACKUP the entire folder of the engine that you want to use this cab in. If you don’t do this first SHAME ON YOU!!

2.     Unzip this file to the drive where MSTS is located (normally drive C:). This will create the directory
       x:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Train Simulator\TRAINS\TRAINSET\\EMD-1CAB

       Where x:\ is the drive where MSTS is located

3.	In the sub-folder “ALIAS” of this file are six cvf files

        EMD-1-DS.cvf----------------Low nose cab with Digital Speedometer.
        EMD-1-SS.cvf----------------Low nose cab with Single Speedometer (neddle).
        EMD-1-MS.cvf----------------Low nose cab with Mix Speedometer (digital and needle).
        EMD-1-ND.cvf----------------Low nose cab (without) No Dinamicbrakes.
        EMD-1-HN.cvf----------------High nose cab.
        EMD-1-HN-ND.cvf-------------High nose cab (without) No Dinamicbrakes.

4.	Choose one of the files in step 3 and copy it into the cabview folder of the engine you want to use this cabview in. If your engine does not have a Cabview folder then create one and then copy the file into this folder.

5.	Now the tricky part. Open your eng file with a Unicode text editor (Wordpad for example) and search for CabView (*):

      NumWheels ( 1 )
	MaxTemperature ( 120 )
	MaxOilPressure ( 90 )
     (*)CabView ( GP38.cvf )
	MaxDieselLevel ( 3600gal )
	DieselUsedPerHourAtMaxPower ( 60gal )
	DieselUsedPerHourAtIdle ( 10gal )

       Replace the wording GP38.cvf with the name of the file you used in step 3. 
       For example:  CabView (EMD-1-DS.cvf) or (EMD-1-HN-ND.cvf) etc.
	
6.    Look for the following lines (*): (Skip this step if you are using a Non-Dynamic brake engine )
	
            Brake_Dynamic ( 0 1 0.025 0 
                NumNotches ( 1
                    Notch ( 0       1 Dummy )
                )
            )
         (*)Combined_Control ( 0 1 0.5 0.5 throttle dynamic )
	    DirControl ( -1 0 1 1 )
            BellToggle( 0 1 0 )
            AWS ( 0 1 0 )

     Add the line that starts with: Combined_Control ( 0 1 0.5 0.5 throttle dynamic )

SAVE THIS FILE!
