My repaint won't show up.

Unread postby Csxgp38-2 » Sun Apr 15, 2012 1:31 pm

Well folks, just finished repainting the H21 from the HSC route, and made a new file with edited .bin so that it should show up ingame as H21a Capitol Coal. However in game only the default HSC hopper shows up, H21a Capitol Coal is nowhere on the list in the scenario editor. For some reason the game won't let me clear the cache, that button shows as already clicked and not able to be clicked again..So how can I get my hopper to work?
Thanks, Harrison.

Exit RW, then run it again. You should now be able to clear the blueprint cache. Once you have clicked Start, you lose the option to clear cache until you exit then rerun the game.

Thanks, now it shows up ingame, but the skin shows up as the same as default even though I created a separate folder in the H21a folder for it and assigned it a new name in the .bin file, all the textures are converted sucessfully. So why is the default skin still showing?

What are the values in the <RenderComponent> section of the following ID's: <GeometryID> and <CollisionGeometryID>?

Get yourself a good xml editor that allows you to collapse and expand sections. Helps a lot, I use UltraEdit because of a license from work, but there are good freeware editors as well.

Did you change the geometry ID in the .bin file as well? That would be this line:

<GeometryID d:type="cDeltaString">RSC\HorseshoeCurve\RailVehicles\Freight\Hopper_H21a\Default\[00]Hopper_H21a</GeometryID>

That tells it where to look for the textures that go on the car. In this case it's pointing at the default folder for the textures. So you want to change it so it's pointing at the folder where your repaint is like this:

<GeometryID d:type="cDeltaString">RSC\HorseshoeCurve\RailVehicles\Freight\Hopper_H21a\My_Repaint\[00]Hopper_H21a</GeometryID>
