I was doing the SW7, W2 and SW2 but the program was dropped due to a lack of interest. When it was posted in the trainz fourms on how many people wanted a Melbourne tram to see if it was worth go ahead got no replys and project dropped.

What a shame I didn't see the thread. I'm really enjoying your steam trams bearcat as well as the rest of your work including your Boorowa route. It would have been great to have SW7, W2 and SW2 trams in Trainz.

Admitadely I haven't checked the Trainz Forums much lately.

Paul at his site paulztrainz has released his Melbourne W7 class tram and is working on a mulhouse Citadis tram.

Are any models of the original Melbourne Citidas trams going to be made also are there any screenshots of the W7s?

Click on this link below for pictures of the W7 that Paul has made.

It could be possible Paul could do an original citadis and others if there are people interested.

If someone can re-skin the Citadis and Combino trams on the download station, even though the models themselves arent overly accurate- that would be better than nothing Very Happy

I'm going to get around to buying some of his Z classes eventually, i just hope that seeing as they're payware they have a proper cab view etc...?

the W7 looks okay, but one of the panto's has to go! lol And perhaps he could use photo's for the logo's etc and signage on the side? Plus the 'red wheels' have gotta go! Looks alright for a BETA model.

Hey peoples, its really easy to repaint things your self with a little bit of playing with these programs..... ive since been repainting things galore trams and roads etc.

The first opens the tga files and allows the to be sent to editing program (i use gimp)

http://www.softpedia.com/get/Multimedia/Graphic/Graphic-Editors/TGATool2.shtml

PROGRAM LINK IS IN THE FIRST POST WINDOW:
http://amabilis.com/eve/forums/a/tpc/f/62110741311/m/10110414911?a=tpc&cdra=Y&s=2396098374&m=10110414911&f=62110741311

the second program makes texture files which alot of items use.

a few pics of things i have done

Hey.

I could maybe reskin the citadis trams on the dls to the yarra tram livery. But I can't find any photos I can texture it with. And I won't be able to get them because my area has no trams.

If someone can get photos of the sides (and front and back would be a little extra but not required) I could reskin them. Very Happy

And where are these Z class melbourne trams for download? Question
