Just a few facts about public transport settings

I have decided to write this manual for anyone who wants to mess with public transport in Lost Heaven.

-All settings of trams and elevated trains, such as speed, acceleration, tilting rate and such are controlled by the SCENE2.BIN – so for each part of game, you have to change its scene2.bin to see the changes.

-The useful thing for editing scene2.bin is hexadecimal editor, like Hex Workshop or similar.

-BACKUP, BACKUP, BACKUP! – that is the most important part.

Basics:

First, you have to find the part, that you want to edit, in hexadecimal code.

It looks like:

73616C696E6132 - this means "salina2"







0022 - "just spacing"







AE0A0000000800000024AE1F - "nothing useful"







000000 - "zeros"







00 - "this number controls the number of attached cars - 01 for 1, 02 for 2 ..."







00000000 - "zeros"







00008841 - "distance between cars (default value is 17) - edit if you want to use different traincars"



00000041 - "DO NOT CHANGE THIS!"







398E1B41 - "this changes the speed (default value is 9.27777 for tram and 12.5 for elevated railway)"







0000803F - "this might be tilting, but I am not sure about it yet."







00401C4621AE3D00000023AE0E000000 - "and this we don't need in this tutorial"

Don’t forget to keep the copy of your original scene2.BIN file.
