Cab Editor Question.

  • Hello!
    I have a question for people who know how to use Cab editor.
    In train simulator, there is a SD40 loco(BNSF# 7171), which can be seen, put in a consist, but is not player-driveable. I want to copy the SD40-2 cab (since it's almost identical) into that engine, so i can drive it. How can i do that? Any ideas would be nice, thank you.

  • you need a modified Eng file to make the Sd40 driveable..

    you can find this file by searching http://www.train-sim.com

    or contact me Via email.. I'll mail it to you.. along with a texture file to correct the length of the locomotive..

    once you've swapped those two files within the SD40 folder, its easiest to copy the cab and sound folders from the GP-38, and paste them into the SD40 file..

    and you're done :)
