Question: does anyone know of any sizable modern rail-barge models for this game? I intend on keeping the barge from CVP on the route, but I would like to model a larger barge operation somewhere on the route if possible.

Hi Jack
There is one in the TrainsandDrivers dlc "Alaska" but it is big and has containers on an upper deck see picture below. It is "moored" at Whittier in the dlc and is called "Fairbanks Provider" in the "domestic" assets list. The loading bridge is in the "Bridge" assets as "Whittier Loading Bridge". I took a second screenshot to show that it is not a "fixture".

The only other one I know of is from a German company and is a single track on a ferry ship that carries a 3 coach passenger train from Germany to Denmark but is mainly for Autos not railcars.

Hi Buzz456,

I've installed your version of QMI G12 diesel and I've a different version of the said loco without the "QMI" medaillon logo nor the nb. 10'. I've checked all the texture file and I'm still confused. Herewith is my version of the QMI loco ...

EMD G12 CN-QMI.jpg


Now, find the probable texture file, named "text_decais" (as I'm assuming the g12,geopcdx is left unchanged ) :
Text_decais.jpg


Your help to unravel the mystery would be appreciated and may I ask a big favor. Could you, please, share any photoshop .psd file that you may have as I would like to do a version of this loco in the a vintage olive green and gold CN color scheme.

Let's start with the G-12 ????

Thanks, Bernard

Is your path to your locomotive Assets\DieselWorkshop\EMD G12 Series\RailVehicles\Diesel\QMI? It looks like your game is looking at the CN loco by the number.

Look in the texture folder and see if there are several textures dated 2023-12-22 such as the text_cabine etc. The engine bin files should be that date also time 17:45.

Bin and textures screenshots. Both of us are having the same issue. Maybe these can help.

It all looks OK. I'm pretty confused. Anyone care to chime in here who got this thing loaded OK or do we need to update the upload?

Odd! but I found the mystery of the infamous "QMI G-12 nb.10" loco missing logo and its 10 loco cab number. !*brav*!

QMI G-12 992.jpg


I've to fix the bad cab number and before I post any fix, I've got to check with Buzz, as he may want to repackage the asset.

... on my way to further investigation !*cheers*!
