[Lefabo] German RailVehicleDefinition Mods

Hello German railway enthusiasts! These Mods make numerous improvements to the default "RailVehicleDefinition" files of some german locomotives.

1. What is a RailVehicleDefinition? - A RailVehicleDefinition is the file describing the Locomotive such as its Model file, Simulation file of it's RailVehicleClass for example. The RailVehicleDefinition also houses the substition values such as substitution geographic regions, vehicle type, pulling power and max speed.

2. What is a RailVehicleClass? - A RailVehicleClass is used within a RailVehicleDefinition to group Locomotives in the menu of the game.

3. In the case of a RailVehicleDefinition mod that changes multiple locos from different DLC: Do i need all DLC for the mod to work? - As far as I know no because the game tries to access / change data that is not there when a DLC is missing.

Download install info

• you can use all the packs at the same time if not stated otherwise

The download includes:

German_RailVehicleClass_Grouping:

• this mod is purely visual for the menu of the game so it is a bit more clean
• it strictly groups all traffic red BR 185 together separating them from the other liveries -> before half of the traffic red BR 185 were grouped with the Railpool Variant
• in other words every BR 185 Livery has its own selection tab now -> every livery uses a different "RailVehicleClass"
• all BR 143s are in one tab now instead of being split into two -> all BR 143s use the new "RailVehicleClass" DTG assigned to the BR 143 since Frankfurt S-Bahn leaving the old one unused

BR_204_RVD_Mod:

• this mod adds new gameplay possibilities for the Br 204
• this mod changes the "RailVehicleDefinition" of the BR 204 so it adds some of the same substitution values assigned for the BR 294
• in other words the BR 204 is added to most and not all services the BR 294 is able to drive
• the BR 204 is able to be used on a lot more routes now

And with that have a lot of fun with the mod!

Best regards, Lefabo
