HŽ 7123 / DB 612 Train


Note: the front train display shows the name of the line and the side display shows the next stop.





The RegioSwinger was first manufactured by Adtranz in Hennigsdorf, before it became part of Bombardier Transportation in 2001. The train is in use in Germany with Deutsche Bahn as class 612 and was introduced to Croatia with Croatian Railways as HŽ 7123 or InterCity Nagibni (ICN) in 2004. The public shortened that name, so it caught the nickname nagibni (swinger) in Croatia, and became known also by that short name, due to commercials.

In this picture lights are on, but in game red DB version doesn't have lights.
Is it a bug or it's a feature?:)

Mod picture is from TpF1... for TpF2 I removed lights from all vehicles.

Have you considered making a train HŽ series 7023?

In fact, we have plans for 6112...

Mod updated to version 1.4

- added running lights (headlights & rear lights)

Mod updated to version 1.5

- small bug-fix for running lights

Hello Danny,

I just recognized that most of your vehicle mods lack of the proper amount of animated sitting (and eventually standing) passengers.

I start "complaining" with this mod as a placeholder for all the others

The capacity value (of course divided by 4) and the max. amount of real passengers differ very much.

The BR 612 would have 24 passengers in 1st class (your mod: 32 counted seats, capacity value 88 / 4 = 22)
Okay, this is not that bad, but that the animated seats are more than the capacity / 4 is not very common, most mod devs have it the other way around.
So, the BR 612 in 2nd class got 36 counted seats and a capacity of 96 / 4 = 24

This sums up to a capacity of 46 as mentioned in the OP for the normal two-car-setup.

Yes, in real the BR 612 got 24 seats in 1st class (well, it is a fraction of a car) and 122 seats in 2nd class (the rest of the first car and the whole second car).
This sums up to 146 - not 46.

Of course in TPF a fraction of a car is not possible (that would be a passenger compartment) - so one car must be completely first class.

This info:
http://www.nahverkehr-franken.de/rbahn/612-techdat.html
says the car
612.0 got 49 seats 2nd class (plus 69 standing places)
612.5 got 81 seats 2nd class and 16 seats 1st class (plus 69 standing places)

This is difficult to find a good compromise, the car with the 1st class compartments got the "open coach" for 2nd class as well.

If you're not interested in adding standing places (what I can understand) I suggest that you change the cars like this as a compromise:
612.5 ("a" variant) 49 animated seats (capacity 196)
612.0 ("b" variant) 81 animated seats (capacity 324)
It's like switching the capacities from 1st to 2nd class, but the outcome is more realistic values ingame.


Why all this fuss?

On the one hand - most vehicle mods I know have a proper amount of animated passengers - or even a greater value for capacity than animated passengers.

On the other hand I use a mod that literally counts the seats (or standing places) - all that are and one of those are counted and the result is multiplied with 4 to get the real ingame capacity.

This mod is made by me - and not officially released yet - I did it mainly for myself.
But it is attached to a forum post here:
https://www.transportfever.net/index.ph ... post285555


Also your buses have a very low capacity compared to animated seats - like the IC bus; 132 capacity / 4 = 33 compared to 48 counted seats (which seems to be a realistic compromise of the R07 models from 2013 with 45 seats and from 2017 with 49 seats).

I also suggest to increase the capacity values of all your vehicles to fit to the amount of (realistically modeled) seats.

Hello,

Really nice train, but there is one little thing: Could you please add the reversability feature so that the train can drive backwards? This would make it perfect

What about the latest HŽPP livery?

There is no HŽPP livery for that train.

I though this one

It's not possible right now because it requires complete change of UV maps and that will affect all trains.
Maybe in future...
