I prefer the first one, myself. quote> Or as i've just done on my freight lot, use different train props Kralore

I personally think that it's a mistake to use them instead of the ones Gizmo28 created.quote> Sorry, realized my message may have got a bit confusing near the end. It's Gizmo's Maxis Train car props that are not working when your Original Replacement Engines and/or Cabooses are also being used. Kralore

It wasn't like this when I created the lot. After about an hour scratching my head (and removing all the custom files I had in my game LOL), I discovered the problem. I knew it had to be a conflict with something I recently installed. So to make a long story short, Trolca's Original Replacement engines and cabooses conflict with Gizmo's Maxis Train Car Props (I just started using original replacement engine and caboose last week, that's why I never saw the problem when I originally created the lots). As and example, If your using River Haven Original Replacements for engine and caboose, the Gizmo's Maxis Engine and Caboose prop will have the River Haven textures trying to apply on the Maxis model. The end result is very funky and distorted looking graphics. I have redone my Simcity Rail lot and switched to Gizmo's ST-Members train car props instead of the Maxis train car props. I have also fixed a few other things I noticed with both the Simcity Rail and the CP Rail lots. It should be available on the exchange shortly. Kralore

Date: 5/24/2004 6:15:04 PM Author: Trolca - Regarding the new BN caboose, I have 2 issues. - I don't really see it in game, or any of the bay line caboose files I'm using. All of my freight trains seem to be caboose-less. This could just be amazing coincidence. - I do see the new BN caboose pop up among the autospawn freight activity at Kralore's Freight lot (non-cp rail version). Here, the skin on the caboose is all messed up. BN logo on the roof, yellow railing paint is on the side of the car, etc. Anyone else with this caboose seeing these problems?quote> I will take a look at that lot tonight to see if I messed up somewhere or if something else is going on. I used gizmo's Maxis_Traincar_Props_E-V3.dat for the non CP lot and he has said the maxis dat is done slightly different then the other train prop dats. If an update is needed I will post one as soon as possible. Kralore
