CAB AND
SOUND ALIASING
Ever wanted to alias a new cab
and/or sounds to a certain train replacing those
it came with? If so, read on!
CABVIEW ALIASING
Here is a list of the required actions needed to alias a cabview to a train.
- Open your desired train's folder.
- Open the train's folder which includes the desired .cvf
cabview file you wish to
use into a new window.
- Copy
the 'CABVIEW' folder belonging to the train which holds the relevant cabview
to the desired train.
- Rename the new .cvf file with the same name the original cabview had.
If you download a
cabview off the internet the chances are it will be set up as a
'common cab'. If this is the case you should go to the 'common.cab'
folder in the 'TRAINSET' folder and look in there for the cab
you wish to use. Open any .cvf files in the folder into
Notepad/Wordpad and if any have lots of 'common.cab' references
then you should simply copy just this one file and place it in
the 'CABVIEW' folder of the train you wish to use it and rename
it with the name the original .cvf file had.
SOUNDSET ALIASING
Here is a list of the required actions needed to alias a soundset to a train.
-
Open your desired train's folder.
- Open the .eng file into Notepad/Wordpad & search for a line with "xxxxxEng.sms"
in it.
- Replace this with "..\\..\\Name
of train with new sounds\\SOUND\\xxxxxEng.sms".
- Further down, locate "xxxxxCab.sms".
- Replace this with "..\\..\\Name
of train with new sounds\\SOUND\\xxxxxCab.sms".
- Save the file, making sure that you have the drop down box set to 'All Files'.
