Hi all,
I used XTrkCad to design my first n scale layout... a modified scenic ridge that I posted awhile back in the N/Z forum...
Anyway, I ended up using some of the misc Unitrak package pieces (1 1/8 and 1 3/4) which where not actually in the XtrkCad Unitrak parameter file library. You could have used a piece of the 90 crossing for the 1 3/4, but I wanted the correct part numbers to come out in the parts list and also needed the 1 1/8. So, I have modified the default "kato-n.xtp" paramter library for XTrkCad. I just replaced my default library. You could rename it and load it as a custom library, but I did not bother to do this... The additions were very simple and no need for making things more complicated!
I have attached the file in two versions... as a text file (.txt 46kb) as it is one of the allowed formats for uploading to this forum. You would have to rename it to kato-n.xtp and put it in the parameter sub-directory of XTrkCad... and as a zip file (.zip 7kb) that will extract to kato-n.xtp and need to be placed in sub-directory mentioned above.
Use either one... and happy designing/dreaming...
If there is a better place to upload this to, please advise... I did not see a "download" section for this forum.
Happy RR!
