Hello and Happy New Year to all. I copied and installed the GP30_02.GeoPcDx from the UP Geep 30 for this repaint but in the activity the WM GP still retains the UP livery. *!mad!* *!question!* *!sad!* !*don-know!* **!!bang!!**

You know that this has both a _nm and a _nmc version the nm being the high resolution and the nmc being the lower resolution. I don't know which one you repainted but perhaps your game is looking at the other one if you didn't do both which is why you are still seeing the UP livery.

I just checked this and the Body_nmc is correct and the Body_nm is the UP. A further complication is that they are read only. I suggest you open the texture folder click on and copy the Body.nmc file and save it as Body_nm2.TgPcDx then delete the Body_nm.TgPcDx file and change the one you saved as Body_nm2.TgPcDx to Body_nm.TgPcDx. Check it and then repeat for the other loco.

The recently posted GP9 (in Maryland Midland) has the same issue on the GP9_cabend_nm.TgPcDx file.

In the scenario editor left click on the locomotive's fuel tank and a flyout appears on the right showing the loco number (the one that shows in the consist/uncoupling/coupling view). I suggest that whatever it is (it will be a UP GP30 number) change it to (in this instance) x501 or x502 as appropriate. This will get rid of the unwanted ex UP number but will give an acceptable number in the consist view. Alternatively just delete one digit (doesn't matter which) from the number in the flyout. This will need to be done every time you load the engine(s). There is a permanent solution but explaining it is beyond me at present but I will PM you the modified files for you to just drop in.
