@excr: the v3 mod replaces this, yes

Is this replaced by the V3 mod, or are they compatible?

UPDATE: Added some extra placement functionality. Assets will now be able to be tilted using the o,p,[, and ] keys.

Hey Gr1m, loving these wagons. Is there any chance of getting a tank variant as well? I know that I can load liquids as barrels into them, but I'd love to be able to have tank wagons in my fleet as well.

They look great!
ANd they are overly profitable due to being fast and light. Could you please make an option so they are in par with vanilla wagons of the same era and capacity, thus going at 50 kmh and weighing 10 tons?

Oh awesome! Glad to hear it :D

I've found the problem, I had left the original brake van selected. I removed original mod then started the game, ignoring the red warning. Game loaded OK!

@Norfolk_Chris: I can't seem to replicate the issue on my end. I haven't even seen that bug before while making this, so I'm not sure. I'll keep trying to replicate the issue, but it might be worth loading up a new game with the mods you use and seeing if it creates the same issue or something.

I've had a problem with my game crashing when I try to load it. The only changes to any mods yesterday was to this mod.

"Error message:
Group" has 2 materials but mesh has 1 groups
This error is usually caused by modding. Some resources contain semantically incorrect data."

Has anything you changed that could cause this? I used both wagons and assets from this mod last time I played the game

UPDATE: The covered wagons doors are now fully animated and cargo will visibly load into them like the other wagons. In addition, I've added variants of the covered wagon as placeable assets with their doors open and the cargo visible inside. Mix and match with the 'empty' version (which has the doors closed) to add a bit more visible spice to your freight yards!

All of the placeable assets have also been slightly adjusted to that they line up slightly better as well.

Looking good! Although I reckon the wagons would look better without the metal side doors as side doors were less common and usually wooden if they had them. Especially the one and three plank waggons.

Thank you for this and all your other mods, they're all top shelf.

Just to say thanks for the clarification re the Brake Van. Suspected it was a game limitation, wanted to be sure. :)

@power man: If people are primarily interested in the brake van, then the old version of this mod (just the brake van and covered wagon) is still available.

maybe you could do the brake van as a stand alone mod?

Works a treat, OCD intact, thanks.

Thanks for quick response, I'll check it out.

@ricblack49: Just updated the mod, so the wheels should be right now.

It's good that you decided to leave the original up, not just because what some people may prefer, but also because by taking old mods down you would be breaking the savegames of many people if they didn't bother to make a copy of the mod in the mods folder and use that copy instead of the workshop version. Some modders still don't understand this and get a lot of hate from people when they delete something.

Thanks for this rustic looking mod, adds a bit of charm to the steam era. It sounds like you're busy but I have noticed a visual glitch on the Covered Wagon... the wheels run a bit high & don't appear to turn, the rest are great.

@ajax_post: I intentionally left the brake van out from the list of the other freight wagons as it functions differently and doesn't carry any cargo.

Unfortunately it's because of the fact that it doesn't have any cargo that it doesn't show up in any of the refined searches (aside from searching by name or letter). This is an issue that's existed since TpF1 IIRC and it's just a kind of annoying quirk that can't be avoided :P

Not sure if this is intentional, unavoidable, or an error in categorisation...

The Generic British Brake Van does not appear in the Generic British Open Wagon group, nor 'all wagons' but only if you select all depot option (locos, wagons, etc.)

Very noice

Wonderful work! With this, making true multi carrying services will be a breeze! Thanks for them!

P.S. Yeah, I'm still making mods. I'm just currently working on something that's sort of breaking my balls at the moment, so this is a bit of a small side project to take a break from that :P

!IMPORTANT! Please note this is intended to replace my earlier British Brake Vans mod and is therefore incompatible. I just chose to leave the original mod up in case some of the decisions made with this version of the mod weren't to everyone's liking.
