You can edit the cab in any program like paint.

Paint is Basic and can lead to some Quality Diffencies.

Any Image Editing Program can be used as long as it supports BMP and can draw Blue Pixels. PSP or Photoshop is better if have it.

As for the configs, read the ones with other trains + the plugin docs and you should pick it up in no time.

I know this isn't the thread, but did the sound.cfg replace the train.dat? If so, how does the train get it's sounds configures in the way it should sound. IE: If you have 3 motor sounds, if they are in the wrong sequence, the train will sound wrong???

No...

Train.dat does everything it used to.

Sound.cfg however now says which sound does what

So when you had BVE4 you had motorx.wav. Now you can call them whatever you like so long as, in Sound.cfg, you say that mysoundx.wav should be the motorx sound.

Ah right, I see!
