CR GP35 Set

This is a set of two Conrail GP35s, numbered 3645 and 3669. This set requires ownership of the
ATSF Locomotive pack Volume 2 from Streamlines (now included in the ATSF Superpack)

NOTE: Installation requies minor editing of shape files.

INSTALLATION:
_____________

1. Extract the two included folers to the TRAINSET directory of your Trian Simulator installation.
(ex. C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Train Simulator\TRAINS\TRAINSET)

2. COPY the following files from the SLI.ATSF folder to the CR_GP35_3645 and CR_GP35_3669 folders:

- SD40_GLASS.ace
- SD40_INT.ace
- GP35c.ace
- SF_GP35_2854.s
- CABVIEW folder
- SOUND folder

3. Rename the shape files to match the names of the .eng files inside the CR_GP35_3645 and CR_GP35_3669 folders.

ex. SF_GP35_2854.s to CR_GP35_3645.s and SF_GP35_2854.s to CR_GP35_3669.

4. Now for the fun stuff. Decompress the two shape files so that they may be viewed in a Uniocode format using the program of your choice.
For example, RouteRiter and Zipper are two programs that work well.

5. Open the shape files using a text editor (notepad works) and search for this line in each:

prim_states ( 11
prim_state 1_-_Default ( 00000000 0
tex_idxs ( 1 0 ) 0 0 0 0 1
)

6. Change it to look like this:

prim_states ( 11
prim_state 1_-_Default ( 00000000 0
tex_idxs ( 1 0 ) 0 0 1 0 1
)
^
( It's this one right here: ^^^ )

7. Save and compress the shape files.

8. Create a consist with your new locomotives and enjoy them!
