!*don-know!* These don't show up in my consist editor. Do we have to copy any Geo files over to make them work? It was not in the readme file and I followed the instructions.
Thanks

The batch file must be run first, then the repaint folders must be dropped in. It worked for everyone else doing it that way. The batch file automatically prepares the skins, so all you have to do is drag, drop, and overwrite.

It will, I just want an official finished product.

An update is coming later today.

Fixes:
-Updated colors to better match the real life versions
-Updated batch file (will get to that in a second)
-Added warning labels (courtesy of Clear Tracks)

What does the batch file do?
It deletes any directories with a matching name that will interfere with the repaints. This prevents duplicates. It then recreates those directories and copies any needed files to make the repaint work. That's when YOU (the installer) overwrites those folders with those included in the download!

Drops in 1 hour 45 minutes. !!*ok*!!

Redownload from the original link to obtain the update.

Just a suggestion but the rear of the YN3/YN3b variants is a bit off. Instead of full yellow, it should have a little blue lip at the top and bottom

Good Afternoon,

I followed the instructions included in the readme to the T, but after I run the batch file, and try to overwrite with the files downloaded, it says it is unable because there is already a folder named "engine". upon inspection I find that the batch file did install a file called engine, but just that, in each folder.

any help is appreciated because I'm about to pull my hair out.

Thanks,
Luke

Copy and replace the folders that came with the download. Loud up TS Classic and the engines should appear in the Quick Drive list and in the scenario editor too.

To a degree, the instructions are a little confusing at first. But if you read line by line. the manual installation does work.
