GP15 Problems
by buzz456 » Sat Jun 30, 2018 6:07 pm
I'm sure someone has had this issue and resolved it. I'm trying to load a couple of Steve's GP15s. I have both the 'new' MP loco from DRB and the 588 from Mike and Dan. They all show up fine as well as a Conrail one I got from somewhere however Steve's shows up when I place it but as soon as I do the save they disappear I have three different D/L and they all do the same thing. It doesn't matter if I do a F2 and then save or a direct save. Poof on save. Any of you have any suggestions?

I have no problem with the MP , CSX 1505 and 588, CSX 1550 showing in game. However, I have no lights at all. Just D/L the 588 15 min ago.

Hey Buzz, are they the Conrail Units of Steve's.....?
Try this...check and see if there is a fittings folder in the units that are disappearing ( they may have ditch lights ). If so, check the dmv_ditchlights02.bin file for this string
DRB_SimStuff\NA\RailVehicles\Diesel\xxxxxxxxxxxxx\Fittings\[00]dmv_ditchlights02</GeometryID>
Make sure the "xxxxxxxxxxxxx" name is the name of that particular engine folder that is disappearing.
HTH you...!!
