Why is the file so huge?
75 train cars as both vehicles and props means a lot of textures! Use the Loading Screen Mod to make these load into your game more efficiently.
How can I place the props?
Use More Beautification, Prop Line Tool, Prop and Tree Anarchy, and (I’d recommend) Find It and Move It. The props are now in the Construction Materials tab.
Why don’t you do real life liveries? / Can you do *real life livery here* for me?
I just really prefer making up my own versions. It gives me some flexibility in the UV map, and also lets me have fun making up something new, something funny, something that pays tribute to a YouTube series that I like (or make), and it means that I can do a bit less research instead of having to find exact real life livieries of everything.
