--------------------------
INFORMATION:

The RS1 is a brand-new FREEWARE locomotive for MSTS, made with Abacus Train Sim Modeler. The 8/26/08 re-release adds the later v2.0 shape which corrects the nose smoothing issues.

This is the developers' edition for reskins - please understand this is an undecorated locomotive.

--------------------------
RESKINNERS:

RS1templates.jpg....digram of parts that can be removed with an alpha (transparency) channel in .ace files.

PLEASE remember to alpha-out unused details before releasing your model! The RS-1 model has a number of alphable details as outlined in the RS1templates.gif file - please make sure to use the alpha channel to remove the details you do not need.

You must have TGAtool2 by Martin Wright (available at http://fly.to/mwgfx) to open .ACE texture files. It is suggested, however, that you use ACEit from 3DTrains.com, which contains Martin's TGATool2 packaged within it.
