Is that a oopsie that the bottom container single stack sits higher than the double stack? I think maybe yes?

I thought so. I'll mess around here. Probably just have to move it down. I already looked and yup it's not sitting on the ribs.

Yeah its an oopsie. I pointed it out in the other thread about their arrival and someone said you should be able to adjust where it sits inside the well.

I have it fixed and I'm sure they will do the same. I will follow up. Now on to re-paints. I think the way this is structured we will need to make a new car for a new load. If anyone has any other ideas speak up before anyone goes any farther on making stuff.

Buzz, When I decided to paint the many semi-trailers, I contacted Stephan (GreatNortherner) to have his consent to distribute the .GeoPcDx file and freely alter the necessary parameters and links; thus providing file structure which reduces file redundancy and, more important, easier to keep track and manage. I'm in the process of doing a second package and I find this approach quite efficient and tidy.

For the said containers, whereby the graphics and logo are so numerous, it would be ideal to place each category of container in a distinct folder, i.e. 20ft, 40ft, tankers and 53ft. thus in each of these folder one would have a .bin, .geoPcDx file (+ any adjunct file if necessary), and the texture sub-folder. I would even go further, place these folders with the RWA folder structure so all could be easily linked and CENTRALLY located, i.e.;

RailWorks\Assets\RWA\Containers\20feet\APL.bin + APL.GeoPcDx

This would be a perfect place to archive the many repaints that anyone willing to share their creation.

In conclusion, it would be a big help if you could have the consent to distribute the .GeoPcDX file and it would not change much as the container in the package is not the main attraction and should not reduce the potential market.

Unfortunately the containers here are not child objects so one needs to make a wagon for each different container paint. If you have that puppy take a look at the file structure.

Oh well, what a disappointment. **!!bang!!** Why such shortsightedness? we had long TOFC consists on the Feather River Rte with faceless vans - boring...
and it would have been so simple to provide a child option !*hp*!

Since you have started repainting, then I'll pass and may decide to focus on Canadian liveries.

What if someone took the empty Husky Stack and made containers as child objects for it?
