Metro North M7A for BVE (Request)
« on: January 16, 2012, 03:55:21 am »
I see that there are very talented BVE train creators on BVEStation, so I was wondering if anyone here would be willing to create an Metro North M7A with cab for OpenBVE. I am willing to give detailed cab photos, train sounds, etc and may be willing pay a small fee for anyone that can complete the task. A lot of the American content for Open BVE is subway related and though I enjoy operating subway equipment, it would be nice to operate something close to railroads. If you are interested feel free to write on this thread and I will give my email. Thnak you.

I do believe we have an M7A for BVE/OpenBVE. Not sure about where to download from.

As I live literally next door to Croton Harmon yard, I may work on an M7A in the future (no promises though). However I have a lot of other things on my plate right now that are both BVE and non-BVE related.

If you want i'll try to make a basic cab that can be handed to Mr. Railfan if he has time to work on this so that he can implement advanced features onto the cab.

That train is no longer in the public domain, as it's creator has pulled it from the web.

Thank you all for answering. I will have plenty of cab photos by the end of the week (Sunday probably) Are there any specific angles needed?

Unless you are making a 3D cab, then no, only a forward facing view (From driver's perspective) is needed.

The best pics to get is : while sitting down in the chair , looking straight out , at both sides [left , right ] and down . That's how i get my cab photos. covers the majority of what the TO sees.

Ok so instead of M7A cab photos I decided to get M8 cab photos. Should I just post them on here or send to someone?

Here's two. I have plenty more angles and other shots.

You should take the picture from an angle so that the entire pressure gauge is visible, otherwise not bad!  ;)
