Hey can someone help me make a 3d model of a SEPTA Silverliner 4 or 5 in a 3D Model format like this train model here on my Gdrive I'm trying to add the septa silverliners to a new game called Densha De D Shining stage and I don't have experience at making trains in a game so I'm wondering if anyone could help me make a Silverliner 4 or 5 in that Format like the Mizuma 1000 series. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1tzPUhv ... sp=sharing

I forgot to add these photos as well for this but I'm wondering if it's possible if someone could redesign the mizuma into a silverliner 4 and lastly what do you guys think of the mizuma 1000 series?

Speaking here as a novice modeler; nobody is going to want to do work for you for free.

Are you trying to model a Silverliner IV or V? Because it looks like you're trying to model an Almond Joy.

That is true but I am willing to pay someone to make one for me

No I never model this train before, it was a train that was already in the game last year and i took these screenshots from the game.

You may have better luck in the Simulator sub-forum here. Also make sure to note which simulator you're using. Speaking from experience, the Trainz, MSTS, and DTG sims all have content creators that do commission work, but you usually need to reach out to the community associated with each sim. I don't recognize the simulator you posted screenshots from, but reaching out to the specific online community for it would be a good start.

Doing a quick Google search I found a Discord and Reddit community, I would start with them and ask around to see if anyone has modded the program.

If you were open to a different sim, you might want to try Trainz. I used to be a content creator way back when, and it is a very easy program to 'mod'. There's a massive community that creates both freeware and payware content, including several groups that do commission work.

Even further back, in my Microsoft Train Simulator days, I do remember some freeware Silverliners were made for that sim. Check out the Train-Sim website's freeware downloads, they should be there. MSTS still has a very large community for such an old sim.

I'm in both english and japanese server and none of them know how to make vehicles but i have a friend who can put it in the game but he needs a model of a silverliner so he can be able to put it in the game with the rest of things but there was modding with the game but not with making a vehicle but some know how to add colors but not make a whole train.

I moderate over at Trainsim.com and yes, we are alive and well. While almost nobody uses MSTS anymore aside from a few holdouts, the community sourced OpenRails.org platform has 100% compatability with MSTS routes, equipment and content. It's a huge upgrade from MSTS's 2001 platform.

And yes, there's also a freeware Silverliner, but that can't be manipulated for use in another sim.

There is a ORTS model exporter for Blender if you want to create a newer model.

Can I get a link to the silverliner freeware and also i heard that the train i sent all the way above was made in unity the 2019 version and how will the model turn out if it goes through blender?

What's in the file library is a compiled model in the game's required runtime format. It is not something that you can open in Blender or another modeling tool to modify.

You'd need to create a member ID and search the file library for "Silverliner" if you're interested in this for running in OpenRails. It's not going to work in your Densha game.

If you want to build a model in Blender, that's probably your best option for something that goes into the more mainstream game platforms like ORTS, Railworks, or Trainz.
