Generic British Engines Pack v2

Generic British Engines Pack v2

For all your generic steam engine needs!
Note that this mod is intended to replace the first version of this mod. There was a major restructuring of files behind the scenes, and a regular update would have broken a lot of people’s saves. Install this mod, replace your engines, and remove the previous version.

This pack has 55 ‘generic’ engines in it, designed to represent some of the common engines found on pre-grouping railways in the UK.

And all 55 are available In 3 liveries – the blue shown above, as well as an unlined ‘freight black’ style livery that was common, and a gold-lined red livery as well.

21 of the later locomotives are also available in BR Green, BR Blue, and BR Black liveries as well.

I’ve also included placeable assets of all the engines. These assets are also available ‘as new’, or in fully aged and rusted variants to add to your sidings, scrapyards, workshops, etc.

So uh…all in all? There are 165 different engine variants. And more than that for placeable assets.

To save on file space, but not my sanity, the models are made up of a bunch of common meshes, and everything’s cobbled together in the .mdl files. It’s a bit complicated, but the long and the short of it is that the entire pack shares a bunch of common mesh assets, and everything is mapped to one set of textures. Which saves on file size. So you get a lot of mods for a fairly economical file.

These engines cover from 1850 right up until 1950, so you’ll see everything from early 2-2-2s, all the way up to some big 0-8-0s and 4-4-2s, and a big Pacific, a couple of Black 5 inspired engines, and more!

There’s also an absolute ton of small tank engines and shunters for your sidings and freight yards and such.

I’m not going to list all the engine stats below because I’d be here all day. But rest assured I’ve taken multiple attempts to try and balance them around each other (however the early locos *are* OP compared to vanilla because the 1850s economy is broken anyway)

Features:
– 55 original engines, based on common UK engine designs ranging from 1850 to 1950
– All engines come in 3 liveries – a generic lined blue livery, an unlined generic ‘freight black’ livery, and a red livery with gold lining.
– A total of 160 engine variants to choose from
– Full aging and recolour support. Detailed dirt and rust accumulate as the engine ages.
– Engines are sorted in a depot menu to reduce purchase menu clutter. Due to the large volume of locomotives available, they have been split between 5 menus for 25-year blocks.
– Small file size and .dds compressed textures, to help with load speed.
– Lods to reduce GPU load.
– Placeable rail assets (also with lods) allowing placement of the full engine, or just the tender or locomotive if you wish.
– Aged/rusted versions of placeable assets.
– Moddable engine numbers – edit the number of the train and the number will display on the side of the locomotive.
– Don’t like a specific livery? You can now disable it in the in-game mod menu to further reduce depot menu clutter!
