Improved Trains v3.5 for ATS 1.38.x ATS
This Mod adding a More realistic American Trains With Realistic Sounds.
based by PIVA Train Mod and Sounds by Drive Safely and TruckerKid.
+ my Exclusive content.
For some locomotives and rail cars add skins with logos of real companies.
Now all freight trains are drived by more locomotives, from 2 to 5 coupled head DMUs and some additional helpers in the mid and the end of the trains.
The length of trains has been changed, passenger: 5-15 cars. freight: 20-60 cars, depending on the number of sections and type of locomotives.
The max speed of freight trains: 90 KM/h. Passengers: 150 KM/h. (NOT MILES/H!)
Added realistic train sounds in new FMOD Sound Bank format.
All passenger trains added a reverse section locomotive.
also increased stopping distance for the all trains.
Changes in version 3.5 for ATS (v1.38x):
release version for 1.38
improved all new special trains types
reworked traffic density system for bigger radius of AI life, for long trains stable drive compatibility.
Please place this mod above any Sound Packs and Traffic Density mods in Load Order.
Attention!
This mod must be placed above any other third party mods that affect the trains, except for my own addons and graphic mods that change the skins or appearance of trains.
I recommend using this mod with mod Realistic Vehicle Lights by Frkn64 (this mod need higher priority than improved trains)
The Mod is not compatible with Traffic Density and Train mods (Except for mods for which compatibility addons exist)!
Compatibility Addon
The mod does not support versions of game older than (1.38x).
For this mod not recommended increase setting “g_traffic” higher than value 1.0 or possible bugs and drawdowns FPS
I am very thankful to all the co-authors for all their work!
Enjoy it and Have Fun!
