TAS F40 Mega Pack not working properly.

[Brickrail782]

I reinstalled it the other day and found that the crewless Amtrak F40s don't work anymore. Without the sounds installed, they work fine. What's going on?

What do you mean that is doesn't work? I doesn't show up or it's not powered or what?

[Brickrail782]

They don't exist outside of the list of engines and rolling stock. In a freeroaming scenario, they can't be placed down and in a quickdrive scenario, the game says that something went wrong and boots me back to the menu.

[JohnS]

sounds like the engine bin files are gone or the geo files.

[Brickrail782]

I checked the files and the BIN files are still there, I'll have the cross reference the other files with a backup I made of the original files and see if anything is missing.

[JohnS]

There has to be a reference in the files or something that won't allow the models to render in game. unfortunately it sounds like you may have to unistall and reinstall the originals. The one thing also is you might be trying to add an F40 model you don't have. When you install these sound packs it adds everything even if you don't have the model. The geo shape file may not be there or may be need to copy over.

[Brickrail782]

I have all the DLC required for the pack. I'll see what happens after I reinstall the route.

[Brickrail782]

Ok, just reinstalled Soldier Summit and the F40s are working with the stock sounds, going to reinstall TAS sounds and see what happens.

[Brickrail782]

Just reinstalled TAS sounds and it's broken again.

[buzz456]

Have you asked TAS about this problem?

[JohnS]

Sounds to me that the bin files are getting replaced with incorrect paths.

[Brickrail782]

Have you asked TAS about this problem?

Not yet, I'll send an email tomorrow.

[Brickrail782]

Just got a reply, apparently, it's a problem on RSC's side, they said they are working on a way to fix it.

[buzz456]

Why would it be a problem on RSC's side when they don't exist anymore and it's a mod that doesn't work? That makes no sense.

[Brickrail782]

Here's the email that I received:

It's a error on RSC side. I have tried to fix it but for some reason it won't work. I will try to take a look into it later on but for now it can't fix it atm. But soon.
