okay this conversation has exploded, it means everybody want to change stuff, for me i would like to change the number limitations, like bridges, stations, signals, industrys, i am not verry into more trains than 224 because in reality i end up using just 10 different, in general the most powerfull. I am allso not yet looking for a way to extend the map, that would be nice but is not realy needed in my eyes. The most wanted change for me would be a kind of PBS like in TTDpatch and OTTD. its verry annoying that on a 2 track system wen 2 trains go strait one has to wait at a signal if there is a switch between the tracks.
I realy get sick with this EULA mumbojumbo Locomotion 10 years old you can buy it for 5 euro or DL it for free so i dont see the advantage for ATARI there any more. As most people know Locomotion is based on Rollercoaster Tycoon engine, en because this game is more popular there exists more entrance to its source, maybe this is a way to get to know more.

Okay ill bumb this 2008 old topic, because i want to find a way to get into the .exe of locomotion to alter a few things in game. I know if i write this at tt-forum ill be cut off direct, for some reason its not done to suggest hacking the the .exe due to copy write. I have searched many time the net to find solution, but never found. But i know only one person who know the program, because it is he who made Locotool and locomod, these programs communicate with the .exe and are build with knowlidge about it, his name is Josef Drexler (no need to ask him any thing i allready did, doesnt work), the same persone who wrote the ttd-patch.
So what it is i look for, i look for people who understand programing, like the game, and work together, to form a group and see what we can achiev, as far as i know is the game written in x86 assembler code with a little C++, i dont have the software but i think best way is to decompile the exe to C++, even if we are not able to change someting i want to look inside to have more knowlidge of the game (limitaions, classes, flags and so on) and maybe make a new locomod that can do more than the mod can now.
Best regards

In any case, if you change a sound and make a mistake, you ll hear a jetengine sound. this is allso the case when a sound is missing in game. to find out what sound you have to look for you best open you game in locomod, and select the vehicle that makes the jetengine sound, at the right side in locomod you can see what that locomotive needs to run properly, like railway track and sounds, then you know what you have to look for.

I am working on a turntable, it ll not realy rotate but you can drive on it.
Before i continue drawing to make other angle views (dont use a 3D program) i would like to solve a little problem. For some reason i have 3 triangles where the image drop off. How to solve this.
I have used the Passenger stations set to get this in game, and have changed the size of the images, i think that is the problem, only where to ajust this.
