CN RS3 geopcdx wanted!

Unread postby jtousign » Mon Mar 25, 2019 9:06 pm

Hi, I would like to know where to find exactly the geopcdx file according to the repaint CN RS3 in the File Library. After some tests I have not succeeded. After install It is listed in the scenario editor but not showing up on the track. *!rolleyes!*

Is this a reskin of the Britkit RS3 by Dick Cowen? If it is then it would be in the original files from him. It lists for $5.00.

Yes It is a repaint of the Britkits RS3 into CN colors. I already have the default RS3 from Britkits but the geopcdx from this engine is not the right file. I'm ready to pay 5$ for the correct model with the right file but which one is it????

I think you will find that when you pay, that file is overwritten by another file

Thank Chris, if I remember well I have paid the basic Rs3 from Britkits long time ago but not sure. For instance I have installed the Sea Board Costline RS3 recently from the engine repaints in the library requiring the basic RS3 Geopcdx also and this model works just fine. So I wonder why the CN doesn't. Frustrating finally! *!rolleyes!*

My bad, I just realized Rick Kfoury based his CN repaint on the Britkits RS3 payware.
The file is "RS3-dlh-RW3.GeoPcDx".

Not this time, Buzz! Rick made no mention of this in his readme, I found it by looking at his other repaints.
I updated the description in the file library.

Here is the specification from the ''read me'' file for the CN RS3: ''IMPORTANT: You must copy and paste all the .GEOPCDX files from the original model to the folders they belong to. Otherwise the reskin will not work.'' Then I thought the original model was the basic model. My bad. Why not writing the exact geopcdx file name when proposing a new repaint? Anyway I will get ridd of that RS3 finally. !*salute*!
