CSX SD70 Whispercab by Merlin75 - Won't Show Up!

I downloaded and installed the CSX SD70 Whispercab repainted by Merlin 75; however, for some reason it won't appear on the track when I click on it on the inventory list.

I did as the instructions said and copy/pasted the SD70ACe_BNSF_Whisper.GeoPcDx file in to each of the Engine Folders, yet it still won't show up on the track when I select it from the inventory list.

Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

Might work or might not but have you gone into settings -> tools and cleared the cache this believe it or not has worked for me 9 times out of 10 when I've had downloads not show. I can't do another RWP or anything as I removed Railworks to make room for flightsim as I plan on playing that for a bit.

I'm wondering if this problem is because of which exact DLC that SD70ACe_BNSF_Whisper.GeoPcDx needs to come from?

RSC has repackaged the SD70s over the years in multiple packs and it can cause complications when trying to do something like reskins, sound packs etc.

The current location for the BNSF Whisper SD70ACe is the "SD70 V2 Volume 2" DLC. But there are older packs with that exact same engine in it.
Ergo the file path can be wrong in some of the bins etc.

A person needs to know exactly which DLC the skin was made with.

Copy the SD70ACe_bnsf_whisper.GEOPCDX
from
Steam\SteamApps\common\RailWorks\Assets\RSC\SD70Pack02\RailVehicles\Diesel\SD70\BNSF_Whisper\Engine
and paste it to
\Steam\SteamApps\common\RailWorks\Assets\RSC\SD70Pack02\RailVehicles\Diesel\SD70\CSX5417\Engine
\Steam\SteamApps\common\RailWorks\Assets\RSC\SD70Pack02\RailVehicles\Diesel\SD70\CSX5418\Engine

As you can see it is SD70Pack02 and the GEO must come from the BNSF loco in pack02.

Yes, I went back and reinstalled everything and did exactly as described, yet it still doesn't show up on the tracks *!sad!* .

Anyhow, thank you for addressing this *!!thnx!!*
