File: UP GP60 Patched/DRGW-LN/ReadMe.txt
This file requires that my ComCab.zip and CabSigud.zip be installed, or a good understanding of how aliased cabviews work. If Cabsignal-Cab80d.ace, which is installed in the Common.Cab\EMD\ folder by cabsigud.zip, not be found you will not get an error, but you will not have any cabsignals. Extract this zip in to a temp folder, make sure you have include path turned on. You will have a folder named DRGW-LN for D&RGW low nose locos. This folder will have the frnt ace files and sd402.cvf for this cabview. Also included is a .jpg picture of each cabview so you will know what they looks like. Copy this folder into the TRAINSET\Common.Cab\EMD\ folder created when ComCab.zip was installed. Select which cabview you want then look in it's folder for the sd402.cvf file. Find any loco in your trainset folder you would like to use this cab view with. Back up the .cvf file in it's cabview folder. Copy the sd402.cvf from folder in the EMD\ folder to the cabview folder you want to use. Rename to the orginal .cvf, you just backed up, if need be. Now the loco will use the new cab view. All work is based on Alex Hall's great work with the remake of the MSTS Version 1.2 update, for the BNSF SD-2 # 8010. A special Thank You to NALW for permission, covered by their standard license, to use and modify their Cab80b cab signal. Changes include the addition of cab signals, the Q-Tron has been modified to have a analog and digital speed indication, accelometer, and signal speed influence. Additional cab views will be uploaded at latter dates, that include low and high nose versions, as well as different road colors. Keep in mind, the folders inside the Common.Cab\EMD\ folder are the frnt.ace files and sd402.cvf files, and the .cvf file is used to alias to this cabview as desired. Just select a loco in your TRAINSET\ folder, and copy the proper .cvf from any of these folders to alias this loco to the new cabview. Back up the loco's cabview\ .cvf file before copying over the alias .cvf. Either rename the alias .cvf to match the one you just backed up. This is done as a freeware, not for sale. There should be no problems if installed correctly, but I cannot be held responsible for problems this may cause your system, although I doubt it will. Should you desire a new cabview, feel free to email me at the address below, and if possible include a picture, or screen dump from MSTS that includes a good veiw of the locos hood.
