Jan-30-02, 07:19 PM (EST) "IC Big U-Boats" I was pleasantly surprised to see that the Illinois Central had a batch of U33Cs, so I decided to try my hand at making some out of a certain C30-7.

Unfortunately, there will be a delay in getting them to the file library. It seems that some engineers in Montana didn't know their business quite as well as I would have liked....

As soon as I get them back from the shop, I'll pass them on.BTW, has anyone figured out where the texture on the stepwells and risers comes from?Thanks,Henry Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

Do you need an U33C .eng file mod for these?

I sent the U33C .eng file last night. Let me know if you don't get it, I have had terrible email service of late.

Feb-03-02, 08:04 PM (EST) 15. "RE: IC Big U-Boats" Hi Bob,I got the U33C engine file okay and I'm planning to use it on these locos. Sent reply my e-mail, but I guess it got mangled at one end or the other. (Having some e-mail issues here too!)If you have a U36C file I could use one of them as well.Thanks!Henry Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

Ok, I know where you are talking about now. I am afraid that is mapped to the same place as about a gazillion other "underframe" parts. See the red box below:c30-7-1.bmp:
Message Areas - "IC Big U-Boats" – image 37As I am starting to learn TSM's functionality a little better, I may end up doing a version 2 of the C30-7 model after I complete a couple other models.I know this probably doesn't help much...John D. Peterson

Jan-31-02, 10:14 AM (EST) 8. "RE: IC Big U-Boats" Hi John!Thanks for the info. It's a small compromise and I think we can live with it. I was just curious to make sure that I wasn't missing something in re-skinning it.BTW, I love the painting templates that you provided for the C30-7! It's so nice to be able to start out with clean slate to work from, at least for me, anyway.Thanks again,Henry Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

Jan-31-02, 11:10 AM (EST) 9. "RE: IC Big U-Boats" Glad to help, Henry! I hope you are finding these puppies pretty easy to skin!? I tried my best to make it skinner friendly (me being a skinner first and foremost).HighBall!John D. Peterson

Jan-31-02, 12:31 PM (EST) 10. "RE: IC Big U-Boats" I'm finding them *extremely* easy to skin. That's why I currently have two almost done and another one or two that I'm considering.Henry Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top
