So it works.
Attached File  esc_doble.zip (39.34K)
Number of downloads: 290

Apparently OR wants that in this line
		animation ( 1 1

the first number is greater than 1. Such first number is interpreted by OR as frame count. In reality it is frame count - 1.
I wonder whether this is a correct condition or not. Not difficult to change the code here, and changing it the animation works also with the original shape file. Comments welcome.

Just to be sure, the animation speed is a whole number (not a decimal), is it? OR doesn't like that

As far as I know, OR likes whole numbers for animation speed.

Thank you Csantucci! You hit the nail on the head. I have to say that I didn't build the object myself (I have no idea what program it was built with), but I was about to do it again to make sure it worked on Open Rails. You saved me a lot of work!

Well, we all know something else. If an object's animations don't work in Open Rails it's most likely due to this problem.

Grazie mille!

Hi Carlo,
Does such a modification not have influence on the Semaphore-animation (Signals), we have had many works with the different animation-systems used between sigcfg.dat and the Signal-Shapes? Often Signalshapes with animation has here
animation ( 1 30

the first number = 1

regards
Eugen

Hi Eugen,
I don't think so. The code line to be changed is executed only for continuous animations with constant animation speed, that is with scenery objects.
