Hello.

So you may have noticed that there is no more WIP in the title, that's because I'd like this thread to be more comprehensive of all the mods with Italian setting.

First: my personal WIP right now is the ATR 100! This streamlined 3-cars DMU was built in 1936 to 1940 and was supposed to be an elite way of travel, featuring a kitchen, postman office, retractable tables, elegant decorations and speeds up to 160 km/h. It was meant to be the Diesel version of the ETR200, the fastest and most prestigious train of the Italian Kingdom. Unfortunately braking technology inexperience lead to the lowering of the max speed limit to 120 kmh, otherways it couldn't stop safely.

Only 9 units were built, of which 4 were bombed in the War and one was destroyed in an accidental fire due to a technical defect of oil spillage, which was never fixed.

In the 50s this unit was repaired and the remaining were refitted with first class seats only. It has also got the famous grey-green livery, the same as the Settebello. That's why it was unofficially renamed "Trebello" because it had only 3 cars.

The DMU's career ended in the 60s, when it had become clear that it was too expensive to run and too dangerous due to the continuous breakdowns and possibility of engine fires (in fact, one unit caught fire in 1961).

Second: I've wrote it in my Discord channel, but I'll write it here as well:

"I'm having some ideas to make some secondary mods, all by myself, regarding Egyptian trains. The problem is that I can't find almost any info on contemporary passenger carriages. Have you got some? Model name, orthogonal schemes etc. are welcome! PM me or find my channel in the Italian server"

Third: I started a very tiny project to update a mod of TheMetroMan94 regarding the Italian catenary of Doschi (ex DomTrain) , hope you like it.

As I told you, the ATR100 has always been my dream.

I hope to see it also in 1/87 modeling: having it for TF2 is a beautiful thing for me.

Even if in reality it was not very successful, for the mechanics of TF2 it would be a "standard bearer" of fast transports on thermal traction lines.

A bit like the SVT 137 of the German Railways, his same age, and also built in a very similar way, again with three cars, on Jacobs-type bogies.

SVT 137

Another thing.

- FS FFa: two conjoined FF cars for fast freight local trains ----> No. This is a prototype for transport cars. Covered double wagons.

The "Stückgut-Schnellverkehr" of the Italian Railways were made up of wagons with faltenbalg, like this one in the photo.

These wagons were also used together with passenger trains, for the fast delivery of packages and mail.

Update on my old FS freight cars:

the pack is growing

done so far:
- FS L (short open freight cars): with cabina del freno and without, and with rod
- FS F (short covered freight cars): with cabina del freno and without; and with different ventilation
- FS FF (large covered freight cars): with different ventilation
- FS FFa: two conjoined FF cars for fast freight local trains
- FS Ts: F with sliding roof (prototype?)
- FS Hg: refridgerator
- FS LL: large open freight car
- FS LLk: large open freight car for coal/coke
- FS M: small tank car
- FS PPa: trasporto automobili

is it too much?

This pack will be a must.

It will be interesting not only for Italians, but for all Europeans who love this game.

Only two signs on the wagons.

- FS Hg: refrigerator ----> White livery until the early 1950s, AFTER in ALUMINIUM livery.

- FS PPa: trasporto automobili ----> This wagon was used to transport cars on passenger trains, not for cars leaving factories.

I would say that the Pack can be considered complete.

Actually, a flat wagon with bogies, with stakes, for the transport of wood and iron bars may be missing (typ Poz).

But that's my idea.
This does not mean that it should be put in this pack.

Anyway a huge GRAZIE to Sandra for the great job done.

Photo of the PPaut wagon:

When i come back home I want to write my impressions.

Hallo, I tried again, maybe I'm missing something.

The game doesn't crash, but I keep seeing this (look the screen).

Please, can you explain to me if I have to copy commands to show the bogies from the m-wagen folder to the packwagen folder?

Mauri

Yoshi.

THX a lot for your post.

I wait......

Mauri.

Hallo.
One request....

Here's what I mean:
Zweiachsige (Holz-)Rungenwagen Olm/Elo

Licaon, Yoshi, these wagons are still very beautiful now, very interesting their dynamic loading you created.

Why not convert them for TF2?

Furthermore, even the Italian Railways (FS) had some of these wagons, it would be interesting to repaint them.

What do you say?

I really hope that one day we can have them on TF2 as well.

A big hello and thanks for your attention.

Mauri

Thanks Tom.

I'll try to see ...

Won't it be a problem with some "scripts"?

Grazie! Ciao.

Mauri

Hallo to all!

I would like to ask you for quick help if you can.

I managed to easily convert DB MODwerkstatt's M-wagen from TF1 to TF2 with the utility of EAT1963 and it runs perfect.

They are obviously for my personal enjoyment.

I was not so successful with Trunky's packwagen.

The bogies are still the Minden Deutz, but they are not seen in the game.

This is the link of this mod:

https://modwerkstatt.com/downloads/packwagen-m-wagen/

The packwagen appears in the game, the game does not crash, but the carts and wheels are NOT seen.

Do you have any ideas to suggest?

Thank you and sorry for my request.

But I would like to learn ....

Thank you....

Mauri

Problem solved!

I deleted the kkstb_lights.hdr file from the converted machines, got the same file from the BBO Rh. 81 made for TF2 by Franzl and inserted it in the 170 and 280/380.

Now they work beautifully.

Thanks for the invaluable help.

Ciao.

Mauri

Ok, thanks MaikC.

Zitat von Franzl

The textures format I use is always 2^n.

I got this error during convertion of some of my mods too, it seems to be related with some strings in a .mtl file which are no longer supported in TPF 2. Normally I got this problem when alpha materials (in case of sb 629 for the labeling) are used.

Try the mod converter and copy the content of the sb_629.mtl into the sb_629_alpha.mtl.

Cheers, Franzl

....And this is the final solution?

Here the message of error after that I haved retry....

Hallo!

The same problem for me on conversion of Obb Rh.170 and Rh. 280 - 380 (for my personal use).

The errore message Is:

INVALID MATERIAL TYPE: REFLECTIVE_NRML_MAP for both locos.

Any suggestion?

THX for this moment.

Mauri

PS

- It would be wonderful if Franzl converted these fantastic models to TF2.

We of the Italian community officially ask to him for permission to do some repaints, given that some of these locomotives have been part of the Italian State Railways.

Exactly!

These beautiful locos were used between Florence and Pisa and Rome.

Ciao.

Mauri

That's very interesting also for us!

The FS (italian railways) have been these locomotives in number of 25.....

Please....Don't remember us for this version!

Mauri

That's your FIRST real work!
And it's very good.

Grazie.

Mauri

Spettacolare!!!

Thank you Rocco!
