Inlandsbanan - Now at Beta

[Big Vern]

It has been a long 4 months but I'm happy to report that my Inlandsbanen route project from Gallivare to Arvidsjaur has now entered the beta testing stage. A few screenshots are shown below:













Activity creation and testing is now under way so I'm hoping at the latest the route will be released by the end of January, maybe a bit sooner.

Distribution will be via download from Trainsim.com, UK Trainsim and this site if Mats can handle the file size. It will also be available on my freeware "at cost" route compilation CD.

If anyone has timetables for the route for both the summer and winter service around 1981 - 82 and could scan or send details that would help get accurate passenger activities.

Very nice! Keep on working, and take the time you need

Edit: Spelled the word "Keep" right now...

Mvh. Daniel Odlander, UBOPGE.

Sweet, Vern![] I'm sure that as soon as it gets uploaded Hawk will do his tree and tertex magic on it.

(A little english class, it's "keep" not "ceep")

Looks fantastic! (Eller hur det stavas, grammatik-Mohammad är inte vaken vid den här tiden) Keep up the good work! Ask Fredrik if you can upload it here on E-buzz, it is a swedish route so...

Hi Vern!
It´s very fine with people on the platform. How does it go with the Y7cab?[8D]

Y7 cab is excellent, the rear view comes in handy for shunting as I have created one activity where you need to fuel the Railcar then move into the platform at Arvidsjaur. I've added the Passenger Capacity entry to the eng file and increased the coupler strength to 9N so there won't be any breaks on the longer sections of single line when you meet a set of points.

Activity creation is not my strong point so I'll be setting up a few basic activities and hopefully those more skilled at that aspect can produce some more interesting scenarios. At Gallivare I have included the triangle layout so it would be possible to run from Arvidsjaur, back the train round the triangle (wye) and run back to Arvidsjaur again. A 10 hour activity!!

For my own personal use, I've aliased the sounds to the latest Class 158 sounds available from UK Trainsim. Not exact, but much better than listening to the Kiha and the 158 has a quite high pitch two tone horn which sounds quite Scandinavian too.

Wow, Vern! Think i have to reinstall Mts just so i can enjoy your route.
Fantastic work. I certainly reqonise the terrain, although its been many years since i travelled there last time.

I´ll be sure to follow the progress!

[Big Vern]

The route has now been released.

The files are currently awaiting approval at Train-sim.com and UK Trainsim I have also asked Mat if he can accept it to the file library on this site.

I have also added the route to my CD compilation which can be obtained via my web site. www.trainsim.org.uk/mtsroutes.html

It will be interesting to see what a "Hawked" version could look like. A similar exercise took place with my Blackpool tramway route which was lovingly enhanced and improved beyond all recognition by a couple of the people at UKTS.

Now having a short rest then tackling something closer to home - Cardiff to Rhymney to give the Class 37 diesels a blast!

Hej

"It will be interesting to see what a "Hawked" version could look like"[?]

Varför har jag blivit inblandad i detta rutt-projekt?
Ja tycker Big Verns bilder ser jättefina ut, där behövs nog ingen ändring i rutten, jag har inte planerat att göra nått iaf.

In poor English[:I]

Why have I become concerned in this route-projekt?
I think Big Verns images is terrific(nice), there is probably not needed any change.
I don't have planned to do anything.[:0]

Jag tror Vern förmodade/missuppfattade nog att modifiering skulle ske med tanke på vad Jonatan skrev tidigare i tråden.

The main archive is now available on Trainsim.com however I have had to upload a small patch as Route Riter appears to have deleted a couple of shape and texture files it shouldn't have. A patch has been uploaded to fix that but it may be a day or two before that is approved.

Forgot to add, if anyone has downloaded the route the patch is only about 600kb so I can email it if required pending upload approval. Just drop me a note at vern@nospamtrainsim.org.uk (remove nospam from the address) if you want it.

Hej!
Jag hade samma problem som DJ TIMBOY så jag skickade ett mail till Vern. Han skickade mig en ny patch som verkar fungera (jag har dock inte hunnit köra hela sträckan ännu...) skicka mig ett mail så kan jag skicka denna patch till dig och andra som eventuellt vill ha den.
Den är på 703kb

Ha en bra dag
