An Overfreight railjet livery lets players customize their electric locomotives with real-world inspired České dráhy (ČD) and ÖBB paint schemes inside the Roblox simulation game Overfreight! by OneSkyVed. Creating and applying these designs requires a specific locomotive UV template, an image editor such as Canva, and an active Roblox decal asset ID. Once prepared, the livery is applied through the in-game train configuration menu for a fee of 5 Gems.
How Custom Liveries Work in Overfreight!
Custom train modifications were officially introduced to Overfreight! in June 2026. The system allows players to personalize both locomotives and rolling stock beyond the default map-based paint schemes (such as the Green livery from the Flatlands map or the Beige livery from Twin Peaks).
Customization is managed through the train configuration interface:
- Gem Cost: Customizing an individual train costs 5 Gems.
- Customizable Elements: Players can apply custom liveries, custom 3D meshes, mesh textures, custom wheels, and adjust positional offsets and sizes.
- Configuration Sharing: The game supports full setup sharing through dedicated "Import configuration" and "Export configuration" buttons, which bypasses the need to manually re-enter mesh offsets and texture parameters.
Because Railjet trainsets in Europe are traditionally pulled by locomotives such as the ÖBB/ČD Class 1216 Taurus and Class 362 electrics, Railjet skins are designed specifically for the game's electric locomotive models.
Locomotive Specifications and Compatibility
Overfreight! features two diesel and two electric locomotives, alongside special reward variants. Railjet liveries are made for the electric category, which requires electrified tracks across the entire delivery route to function.
| Locomotive Name | Real-World Basis | Tier | Top Speed | Length | In-Game Cost | Rail Electrification Required |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Diesel Engine | ČD Class 740/742 "Tomcat" | 1 | 80 km/h | 13.6 m | $3,250 | No |
| Faster Diesel Locomotive | ČD Class 750/754 "Goggles" | 2 | 110 km/h | 16.6 m | $20,750 | No |
| Electric Locomotive | ČD/ZSSK Class 362 "Fast Eso" | 3 | 140 km/h | 16.8 m | $120,750 | Yes |
| Rusty Electric Locomotive | ČD/ZSSK Class 362 | 3 | 91 km/h | 16.8 m | Gift (Badge) | Yes |
| Faster Electric Locomotive | ES 64 U "Taurus" (ČD/ÖBB Class 1216) | 4 | 230 km/h (300 km/h via research) | 19.3 m | $650,750 | Yes |
The Tier 4 Faster Electric Locomotive represents the real-world Taurus platform (ES 64 U / ČD/ÖBB Class 1216), making it the exact match for both the Czech (ČD) Railjet and Austrian (ÖBB) Railjet livery designs.
Step-by-Step: Creating a Railjet Livery
To build an accurate ČD or ÖBB Railjet design, players must format their artwork to match the game's UV unwraps. Community livery creators, such as Bunny Originals, document the process using graphics editors like Canva:
- Obtain the locomotive template. Community tutorials specify using the "electric 2 UV template" for modern electric engines.
- Open Canva or your preferred graphics program, select the option to create a custom-sized canvas matching the template dimensions, and upload the UV template file.
- Draw or arrange your livery elements—such as the dark blue, light blue, and grey striping for ČD Railjet, or the signature red and dark grey tones for ÖBB Railjet—aligning them with the template boundaries.
- Export the completed design as a clean image file (PNG or JPEG) to your local device.
Uploading the Livery to Roblox
Overfreight! reads custom paint schemes using standard Roblox decal asset IDs. You must host the finished livery image on Roblox before you can load it in the game:
- Navigate to the Roblox Creator Hub page in your web browser.
- Go to the Creations section.
- Under Development Items, select the Decals tab.
- Click Upload Asset, choose your saved Railjet image file, give it a title, and submit it.
- Once the upload finishes processing, open the decal's details and copy the numeric Asset ID from the URL or asset menu.
Applying the Livery In-Game and Troubleshooting
After obtaining your asset ID, join Overfreight! to apply the skin to your train.
- Open the train configuration menu for the target electric locomotive.
- Ensure you have the required 5 Gems to apply modifications.
- Paste the decal Asset ID into the livery input field.
- If you are pairing the livery with custom parts, enter any relevant mesh IDs, texture IDs, or offset numbers (or paste an imported configuration code), then confirm your changes.
If your train does not display the livery immediately after entering the ID, it is typically a temporary rendering delay or loading glitch. Community creators advise rejoining the server and reloading the train to resolve the issue.
Frequently Asked Questions
How many Gems does it cost to use a custom livery in Overfreight!?
Customizing a train costs 5 Gems per train. This fee grants access to the configuration menu where you can input custom liveries, meshes, and textures.
Which template is used for Railjet liveries?
Livery creators use the "electric 2 UV template" to align designs for electric locomotives like the Tier 4 Taurus (ČD/ÖBB Class 1216).
Why is my custom livery not showing up on the train?
If the skin does not appear after inputting the asset ID, the asset may still be rendering on Roblox's servers, or the game client may have experienced a temporary display bug. Rejoining the game and re-checking the train configuration will usually solve the issue.
Can diesel trains use electric Railjet liveries?
While you can technically input decal IDs on customizable trains, the UV mapping corresponds to specific body layouts. The ČD and ÖBB Railjet liveries are made to match electric models like the Tier 3 Class 362 and Tier 4 Taurus, meaning they will not align correctly on Tier 1 or Tier 2 diesel hoods.
