LocoTool Frontend II is a very useful tool that allows you to easily many aspects of a vehicle or cargo type.  It uses LocoTool, but adds a user-friendly interface.  It runs as a separate program, with a list of all vehicles in your ObjData folder on the left side and their information in the left pane.

 

How to use it:

 

1.  Extract LocoTool Frontend II to a place that is convenient for you.

 

2.  Double-click the .exe file to run it.

 

3.  The program will check your object files (this may take a while).

 

4.  Click on any vehicle from the list on the left and change any information you wish.

 

5.  Click Export to .dat when you are finished editing a vehicle, and direct Frontend II to your Locomotion ObjData folder.

 

**Note** You must export to a .dat or save to a .xml before selecting another vehicle to save your changes.
