At last!!!!! My USRA switcher pack has been upgraded. You get the 0-6-0, 0-8-0 and bonus Vulcan 2-4-2 saddle tank (Think Percy)

Is that RW&A included in there too? I was getting ready to paint that. Looks great!

I'm having issues with the switchers. I deleted the originals, then installed the update. All I'm seeing in the editor are the couplers. I looked at the .bin files, and all referenced files seem to be in the correct places. Any suggestions?

Tenders are appearing fine.

The little Vulcan appears during edit, then seems to be invisible in play mode, with just the couplers visible.

Hmmm! a problem. That sometimes happens when there is some references in the audio files are incorrect. I cant see anything at this end though. As all three are affected the problem could well be in that area. I am afraid I can't reproduce the problem here.

Let me do a compare check and make sure all the files are properly referenced.

Edit: The problem with the Vulcan is in the particles section, narrowing it down now. (is deleting entire blocks of code accepted troubleshooting?)

Edit2: Stack smoke and the generator smoke both break it.

I found the issue: For some reason the 'ParticleThing.GeoPcDx' file was not included in the Particles folder on the final build out. I borrowed one from one of your other locos and all seems to be fine.

I have updated the Switcher pack, adding the ParticleThing shape file to the particles folder. Things should work now.
Sorry for the problems.

Dick.
