I cant see a post anywhere on this so I guess I'm gonna be the first? Anyways I want to make the cab numbers on the SW1500 invisible but keep the numberboard numbers. Anyone know how to do this?

Yes. You go into the numbers files. You will (without looking by me) see that there are two numbers there. Determine which one is the one for the cab side and alpha it out. If this is all Greek let me know. I bet there is already some that are that way. If there are just substitute those number files for the one on the loco you want to change.

Back up your numbers into another folder and try these. Ididn't test this so if it doesn't work let me know.

Which number is the one on the side of the cab and which one is from the auto number? I can fix that.

If the red ones are the autonumber it's looking at some numbers other than the ones I sent you. They would be white not red. If you want maybe you can send me the loco bin file so I can figure out what it's looking at.

I used the UP switcher for the repaint, so thats what the file is referencing. I didnt know which .bin you needed so I included both in separate files (just in case)

Look in your texture folder. There is a numbers bin in there. I suspect it's still looking for the UP numbers instead of the ones I sent you. The call needs to be for the OKI-whatever. *!greengrin!* FYI the scenario remembers the numbers on the locomotives so you need to delete it and then restart the game to change the numbers.
