Looks very good! If the numbers were on the cab, you should be able to use the auto numbering setup. I have some different colored GP38 number sets around here, what color should they be?

They should be black Mike, but I dont know how to add them. I didnt notice till i was ready to post the pic up above but this model didnt com with numbering on the cab side.. weird.. I assumed it had them, but, i was incorrect..

I just checked and all the rest of the gp-38s are numbered.. perhaps another bin file mistake on my part??

Not a mistake. In some cases it is intentional. Mike hides the autonumbers when they are not in the correct place and make the repaint a singleton or part of a small range of static numbers.

I dont have Mikes update installed yet.. I couldnt find it.. The Engine i cloned ( CO-1 ) loads up fine, numbers and all.. I havent set up the GP38-2-MT bin file yet, and dont know if that would cause it or not, but i did make sure the didgits.bin file was set up correctly.. I'm not sure what to do here..

Start with one if MadMike's Ts2012 updated repaints. Then you can see was he has done (and you get lights).

I found Mikes update, and that fixed it.. I copied over the RI textures, and edited the bin file and everything is good. all thats left is changing the color of the numbers, and why the right numbers arent showing up even though i edited the numbers.dcsv file.. I have a sneaking suspicion that for the numbers, i missed something in the bin file.. We'll see.. Thanks for the suggestion Papa.. and thanks to Mike for a great update :) :) ..
