I'm quite convinced this mod no longer works. I'd love to be proven wrong though because I really wanted to use Zekiarsu's HCMT trains as actual metro vehicles in game. I've added them to the mod's xml file but when loading into the game nothing is changed.

no instructions on how to actually use it.... weird

Hi. I put new train onto the list but they are not converted. Anyone could help?

Thanks a lot!

This mod works?

Is there a mod to allow converted train stations to allow inter-city trains, they aren't showing up to my converted station.

Is it possible to convert metro train to normal train with this mod?

Hey Bloody Penguin, is Mom getting an update soon? I'm about to delete it.

Is there an option for converting Passenger Trains to Freight Trains? I've found a few I'd like to use, but the engines are only in-game as Passenger Trains

HI BP, it has come to my attention that this mod isn't converting Trains into Trams at least (as i am concerned), as i have tried (and previously succeeded) in converting Blue Thunder's Cityline P3010 Train. But after the Airports DLC update, i can no longer select the P3010 to run in my city. I do hope you eventually come round to resolving this anomaly, and do take your time as i luckily have a stopgap!

Hello author, how do I use this mod?  There were no buttons to tell me to use them:meepyikes:

If anyone else knows how to use it, please let me know, thanks!

Sorry for asking question, but I found out that after I added certain amount of new train asset into the config, all train assets disappeared from the metro train option list. Is there a upper limit for the number of train asset converting?
dgrad598 Oct 22, 2021 @ 2:25pm 
Any way to make a train station converter so I have the option to do underground metro or train station via Mom? I don't know how to change it in asset editor.

Say what you want, but all i ask is for a video tutorial...

Is this good with train station dlc
Mescatron Jul 4, 2021 @ 1:30pm 
With this mod you will be able to automatically convert existing 'metro'-trains into real metro trains.
...
So if I enable this Mod, A real Metro Train will appear in my Living Room?

Does this alter the Matrix Coding? LOL

Starting up with a modified config (to get more vehicles converted), I get an error message saying it switched to the default config. Does this override my modified config?
Gerishnakov May 13, 2021 @ 3:20am 
Config file not being generated on reaching game main menu, nor on loading a save.

这个和mom不是一样的的吗,简单理解就是mom可以直接选择轨道,是火车到还是地铁道。

Lots of people are asking if this can convert trains into metros. It seems like it can. Can it go the other way, however, and convert metro trains into passenger trains? I have some PATCO Speedliners that I find really good for metros - but my transit system revolves around a single elevated four-track TRAIN line, rather than a metro. Most of the real trains I've found are too long for its elevated platforms, but under MOM, the Speedliners fit just right.

is it possible to use custom steam trains as metro?
Sparktite Feb 6, 2021 @ 11:14pm 
So are there instructions on how to use this mod? Like is there a ui button somewhere that i press to convert back and forth? I thought i read i should use botht this and metro converter which i thought would allow me to sorta do what metro overhaul mod does like switch a metro station to work for trains and vice versa.

Hi,
Does not appear to be the point of the mod, but would it let convert Passenger train to Cargo train (or the other way)? I suppose this is a change of class Passenger train to metro train ?
I actually know how to build a new train only based on existing one, I want to reuse engine, change trailers, but it will not the class.
Any hint how to create a new Cargo train from scratch, I guess i can find the props for engine I want?
thx
tonyhou1998 Aug 26, 2020 @ 11:19pm 
I subscribed this mod but no such option ever showed up after I loaded the map with this mod on. Is there any way to fix this?
benwbc Jul 25, 2020 @ 6:39am 
Ive accidentally run the train converter mod and I now cant transfer my metro trains back from their converted train statuses... anybody know how I can fix this? I have unsubscribed and deleted the xml files from my computer.
drum Jul 15, 2020 @ 3:56pm 
Of course you still need the hook even if you have harmony
limpoup Jun 20, 2020 @ 2:49am 
Where can I find these codes?
MOREOPTIONS Jun 11, 2020 @ 7:10pm 
Am using Harmony, will I still need the hook?
LC_352 Jun 6, 2020 @ 2:28am 
Actually,I want to convert metro tracks into train tracks instead...
SergJack May 11, 2020 @ 3:46pm 
Is it possible to convert local non-published train assets to metro? Can the mod be setup so that it converts all trains to metros?
richardk92 May 9, 2020 @ 8:44am 
Since the release of the BVU metro railway mod for pantograph trains, I´m wondering whether a functionality could be added to this Train Converter mod to convert trams into pantograph metros.
Lukeandsilver May 7, 2020 @ 8:13pm 
My TrainConverter-Config.xml file is empty except for a "0". Did I do something wrong?
mahersalame Apr 13, 2020 @ 4:54pm 
so it's either this Mod or MOM?
tonycat333 Apr 8, 2020 @ 9:07pm 
does this work to convert train vehicles into metro vehicles.
Mr.MaoMao Apr 2, 2020 @ 12:08am 
i can't find the converted metro in my game. i subscribed the new mom and can only use m100 in my game although i subscribed a lot japan trains
RedDog Apr 1, 2020 @ 8:52am 
If I want to edit the config file, how do I find the the workshop-id for the asset?
NSFI Gaming Apr 1, 2020 @ 2:58am 
@bloodyPenguin My city project needs a metro line with stations overground. I have an object from the original Tram. But I cant build stations for tram underground.
potato24x7 Mar 31, 2020 @ 11:08pm 
@BloodyPenguin no I did not need to as it was checked earlier, the train (sound central delta) was converted as tram through the xml before update. But thankfully unsubscribe, deleting the xml, resubscribe and doing the necessary line add to the newly created xml did the trick. It has something to do with the old xml file.
nhatanh0475 Mar 31, 2020 @ 6:08pm 
First: I have alway want to know.
What do you mean convert Metro Trains into Metro Trains? Aren't they the same thing?
Does this mod incompatible with less Steam?
The mod will generated the config file on first launch ( getting to main menu is enough )
BloodyPenguin  [author] Mar 31, 2020 @ 4:57pm 
@NSFI Rommel Currently not supported, what assets do yo have in mind?
@potato24x7 Hmm, I didn't change the file format. Did you check the options - is the tram category enabled?
NSFI Gaming Mar 31, 2020 @ 4:37pm 
Is it possible too, to transform a Tram in Metro ????
potato24x7 Mar 30, 2020 @ 2:37am 
@BloodyPenguin did the configuration file change somehow. My previously converted train-tram now again back to train. AVO updated recently.
Marquillotuca89 Mar 29, 2020 @ 5:19pm 
Oh, seems like you already did it!
Marquillotuca89 Mar 29, 2020 @ 5:18pm 
Thanks a lot!
I will notify the mod creator!
BloodyPenguin  [author] Mar 29, 2020 @ 4:10pm 
@Marquillotuca89 Yes, that should be the problem. All mods use version 1.2. Then it's the mod that breaks this and other harmony mods
Marquillotuca89 Mar 29, 2020 @ 3:11pm 
@Bright European is a theme that I created with Theme Manager.
And yeah, it just happened again.
I've read that the Customize It Expanded! creator used Harmony 2 instead of 1.8 that I've read, it's the version most mods use. Could it be the problem?
BloodyPenguin  [author] Mar 29, 2020 @ 2:14pm 
@Birght European 2 Ok, please let me know if it happens again. Such an error indicates that some modder (probably a beginner) uses the wrong version of harmony and it breaks all other mods that use harmony.
