I assume you mean the exterior images or roll-signs?

You could try taking pictures? I don't know.

Or you could try navigating around the forum, and actually look for, and find their development topics. I'm just saying.

I am going to use the R62A as an example.

1. Go to the Railway\objects folder.

2. In the search bar, search for "R62".

3. Get any .b3d or .csv file you want and open it with a text editor.

4. Throughout the document it should say "Load r62aside.bmp" and "Load r62afront.bmp" and/or something similar.

5. Search for all the images that are listed throughout the B3D file (Yes, all the exterior images you need should be in the objects folder aswell), create a new folder in the train folder and call it "cars", and copy and paste the B3D file along with all the images into that folder.

6. Open up Notepad (or any other text editor) and write down this coding:

[exterior]

0 = cars\*name of the B3D file here*
1 = (same as above)
2 = (same as above)
3 = (same as above)
4 = (same as above)
5 = (same as above)
6 = (same as above)
7 = (same as above)
8 = (same as above)
9 = (same as above)

So basically just write in "cars\*B3D file name*" for all the numbers.

7. Save that file as "extensions.cfg" into the train folder, and you are good to go with the exterior. Hope that helped :)

The best solution is to take the picture yourself.
Go to an outdoors station, stand on the platform facing the train on the track going the other way, take the photo showing the entire train car at a straight angle without any tilt or shift.

It's as simple as extracting to your Train folder.

You can either highlight the train folder in WinRAR and click Extract, and navigate to the Train folder and extract it to there, or you can just drag the folder directly from WinRAR to the Train folder

by Train folder you mean pre-train in the data folder?

No, the Train folder in the OpenBVE folder (OpenBVE\Train)
