Trouble with Harry Adkins' Tenders

Unread postby FloridaRailworks » Sun May 07, 2017 1:19 pm

So I bought the Britkits Light Mikado to use the repaint made by Harry Adkins of the SRR 2-8-2 to re-create Southern 4501. Now, someone has told me they're working on a 4501 Repaint (I won't say who), But in the meantime I wanted to make 4501 look beat up, and these repaints resembled that.

The Steamer worked fine. It had a missing texture on the wheels after I installed the repaint, However I found out a way to fix it.

But the tenders, now we're crossing into a new territory.

I'm not sure what textures are missing, I see all of them in both asset folders. So this is what I'm left with:

Is there any way to fix this? !*hp*! !*hp*! !*hp*! !*hp*! !*hp*! !*hp*! !*hp*!

I believe it's one of the decals that have the missing textures.

Looking at your pictures, I think you have misnamed textures.

One major option is to either use RW Tools, or a manual drag and drop through Serz.exe (found directly in your Railworks folder)

For the serz route, I recommend opening two windows: one to the model with errors, and one to your Railworks main directory.

Drag the tender's main bin file for dynamic numbering onto your Serz.exe file. This will convert it to XML. Yiu can now open and edit the xml file with your program of choice. Modify it to suit, save and drag back over Serz.exe to update the bin. When you go back into the sim and try the tenders again, you should then have proper numbering / naming options.

Hope that helps

Those tenders were done before Dick Cowan issued a major update to his USRA steam. I never got around to redoing the update. Will try to take a look at the package and update. Sorry for the problems.

No worries. I was unaware he did an update. I'm hoping somewhere down the line that 4501 has her own repaint.
