I don't get the whole aliasing thing all the more "experienced" people here do with cabs so here's what I do, I take the longer approach which I think may be eaiser for newcomers, I copy the cabview folder into the file you want to have a new cab for, then I go back and find an engine that also uses the same cabview, I then open the eng. file, and the I copy the cabview and headout line (if a headout line is there), and the same worjs with any sound files I change. It takes up more memory so I don't recommend it if you are tight on memory. If your memory isn't that great you should try aliasing, It's a lot quicker and memory efficient to alias, but if your not too confident with playing around with the game files just yet, and just want to download a few locomotives then this would be an easy way until you understand the files in the game more than it's a 100% gain if you try to learn aliasing. I think my problem is instead of learning how to alias files first I took this aproach and you can't teach old dogs new tricks comes into effect,*I'm only 19 so it's a metaphor* and I'm too used to this way, and i have the memory to spare also.
it's all about the green and white. -BN-
