Please pardon my ignorance but what is an LOD issue? I ask because I wish to know if it affects performance and I have to re-purchase.

If you've already purchased one of the 3-bay coal hoppers from RRMods, you'll need to log into your account at guido73.rrmos.us, go to your purchase and re-download it.

I really appreciate the effort y'all put into the rolling stock, but still refuse to purchase any because of your reskin policy. It really does a disservice to a community that is built around third-party content. You guys have a great looking pack of PS 4750s, but so do Searchlight. Why would I buy a pack that I can't even repaint and release when I could just use a free pack of similar quality and reskin all I want? That's just my two-cents. Obviously, its your business and ultimately your decision, but that's my observation as a dev in this community.

Thank you, that's fine. I would still like to know what an LOD error is though.

It stands for Level of Detail. Below is a link to what it actually is in more detail.

Don't think the OP asked for your input. It's their prerogative to set whatever policy they see fit in terms of reskins.
