Amtrak EMD F40PH Repaint Install help

Yeah... I'm having problems installing Michael Zimmer's Amtrak EMD F40PH Re-paints(fourth one down). I was able to install the F40PH locomotive without a hitch, however, these repaints have confounded me. I would use the included readme, but its but anything clear:

"This is the Amtrak F40PH Package
Rail Simulator folder into your home directory Rail Simulator copy.
Original by David Brindley.Repaint's by Michael Zimmer.
3xAmtk-F40PH Phase 2
3xAmtk-F40PH Phase 3
3xAmtk-F40PH Phase 4
3xAmtk-F40PH Phase 5
2xAmtk-Downeaster F40PH Phase 4
2xAmtk-Downeaster F40PH Phase 5"


If anyone here has installed this particular pack, please enlighten me on how you did so.

*!!thnx!!*

Sorry if I posted this in the wrong place.

1- Extract the zip file to any temporary folder.
2- Open the "Rail simulator" folder in the temporary folder.
3- Copy (or drag) the "Assets" folder to your Railworks folder (e.g. C:\Steam\Steamapps\common\railworks).
4- If asked if you want to merge the "Assets" folder, click on "Yes".

Thanks Chacal, the repaints showed up my game, finally! :D However, I'm having the same problem as SCLALINE (i.e blocky shadows). !*hp*!


P.S SCLALINE what is your graphics card? Mine is an ATI (AMD) HD 3850.

Use the texture I posted here; it just removes the shadow entirely, there's no possible fix we can make. If anyone wants to bung it in their repaints go right ahead, less work for everyone.
