*** Installation ***
A) “Normal” pack (210m headlight range): 1) Install the CSX_YN2_SD40-2_v1.0Normal.rwp file through the Package Manager.

Note: If you had installed the Normal version, for example, is recommended (not obliged) to uninstall the Normal and then install the X-TREME to keep the “Select Package” list clean.
C) “Higher FPS” pack (doesn't cast shadows) If you have a low/medium machine and usually getting low fps running TS2012 with TSX On, you can try the following version of the enhanced Lighting: "Higher FPS".
In this optional version, the light projected by headlight won't cast shadows, as the normal headlight does. When not casting shadows the performance of computer (with TSX On) tends to be the same than using the default headlights (casting shadows). With this optional version doesn't matter if you turn headlight on/off, your fps will be the same.
Note: If you have an average rig try the "Normal” pack version first, and if your frame rates deteriorate or are lower than the "Higher FPS" version.
Installing "Higher FPS": 1) Install the CSX_YN2_SD40-2_v1.0HFPS.rwp file through the Package Manager.
Note: You are ready to go, with higher fps than Normal version, though the loco will not be casting shadows. Important!
