No bodies on RWA DLC

Unread postby Trainman42 » Sat Mar 03, 2018 1:16 pm

Hello! I've been attempting to install 2 locomotives (which I know for a fact I have the required files for) and have done as much as I can when reading the READ-ME's but when running the actual program, I can create consists with the locomotives, load them up in a quick-drive scenario, but when the game actually loads up, there's not a model for the body. The engine runs as if it was really working, it has an interior and couplers, but there's not a body or trucks running.

I'm new here account-wise but have been downloading some stuff before (but have since updated my computer and with it, lost the stuff I've used previously, so I'm rebuilding my stock).

For reference: I have the P42 official DLC as well as the US Assets (with the F7).
I'm trying to download P42 #42 Veterans and the odd-bonnets.

Can you take a picture? My guess is it might have something to do with your visual settings but it's a little hard to tell without some more information.

Looks alot likeyou're missing the geo files. These should normally be copied from the default loco to the repaint as per installation instructions.

I have copied the Geo files already as far as I know. The files were being weird while doing it and all the Engine files were single files and not a folder. I followed the directions as best as possible to see if there was something I'm missing and used YouTube and whatnot, but no information was answered.

Take a screenshot of your engine file and we can probably figure this out.

What I tried doing is unpacking the files with WinZip which was shown to be OK in YouTube and some ReadMe's.

That's why the AP's show the WinZip logo on them

(All of the BlueBonnet/YellowBonnet locomotives have the same files inside as the first photo of the bonnets/F7)

Here is your problem. This stuff should not be in the RailSimulatorUSAssets folder:

It needs to look like this:
F7 Path.jpg
You do not have the required permissions to view the files attached to this post.

On the P42 you need a path like this:RSC\P42Pack01\RailVehicles\Diesel\P42DC\Amtrak Veterans

I'll have to look at the files again, what's weird is that even with the required DTG DLC I don't have them in those folders (I watched an install video I had to dig for on YouTube for both).

All the files on ReadMe's are the same (and from what I could tell are even showing the file locations I was looking for).

Additionally, all the files have the same name as in the ReadMe's and are from the only RW DLC.



**Edit** Quick fix for OddBonnets (finally)-copy/paste the F7 file into the railvehicles file (which is weird cuz the traditional F7 worked in the longer file-folder file deep in USAssets)

What on Earth are you talking about? Make it like I said and it will work.

OddBonnets work, still issues with Veterans I'm working on, even after making that file like you said.

Of course the second I send that the game crashes for a restart and finally works. Thanks for the tips and help, I'll try to read a bit better, thanks!
