Does anyone know if there are any prototypical cabs available for the modern Aussie diesels? (ie late-60s to modern-day). All the stuff I've downloaded seem to use a modified Dash-9 cab, which I don't think is very prototypical, at least not for late-60s/early-70s locos...

I've done a cab view for the Victorian high nose T (early 1960's) and low nose T and H class (late 1960's) locos.
Both are available in the MSTS section of my site.I've also done the B class cab, but this is 1952 so I guess it doesn't count as 1960's onwards --Victorian Railfan Web Site:

Do you know how to reverse images and use the cab editor? If you know how, you could try to reverse the images in whatever cab you want to turn Australian, then use the cab editor and move around the images, or you could combine cabs too. Alpha channels should work if yu must do this. However, you'll need to know how to use the cab editor and you'll need TGA tool - I forgot the links to these websites, but if you need these, I'm sure someone else on this forum can help.
Google, Google, Google!
Simplest answers are always the best!

I found out that the NSW 82 class has a very nice cab (by NALW, it seems) that looks like it would be prototypical for most late-80s to present boxcab-style Aussie locos. Other than that, I see there's a new cab available today
