Hi All,

I just completed a new locomotive model, and assigned the shape to a working eng file. I built a consist in TSRE Conbuilder, but the unit does not appear in OR when I start it up.

There was nothing in the log file. What would prevent OR from loading a consist (single loco)?

Thanks

Rick

Merry Christmas Rick,
Does the model open in Shape Viewer? Shape Fixer or Route Riter?

Merry Christmas Vince!

I do not have Shape Fixer or Route Riter, but it does open in Shape Viewer:

Just a guess, but did you change the wagon and engine name in the eng file? If not it might be showing up as one of two entries under the old name. I recently had something similar happen, but I don't remember the details.

I'll check, Doug, but I think I did a global replace.

Causes of items not being listed in Engine and consists choices:

Installing in Program Files, Program Files (86) and User folders. This results is CON files not being saved to Consists folder.

The case of the filename, the two Wagon lines and the Engine line must match.

No cabview for lead loco.

1) installed in C:\1MSTS

2) all lines match

3) there is a cabview for the lead loco

Charles, I'm totally stumped.

Post the ENG file so I can d/l and test it.

BTW You said you used TSRE Conbuilder to create the consist. Did you use the TSRE Consist Editor or ConBuilder?

I was using TSRE Con Editor.


I started over from scratch. I took a working eng file, edited it for the new model, and created a new consist in TSRE con editor. This time it worked. Not sure where the problem was, I probably skipped a step at some point.

Thanks!
