Yes, the setting is in the ENG file. For a diesel you can have two exhausts setup, but you have to know what you are doing....one extra " ( " or " ) " and you're in trouble.

Ok it has two shown in msts but only one in OR. Can you show me how it should look for OR so I can compare it and hopefully fix it?

It's possible the in MSTS it has two different kinds of exhausts and only one is implemented in OR currently. A link to the loco would be great. :Neeeedsleeep:

ok I do something simple first. The GP9 #604 from Dick Cowen for Rich Garbers Canton route.

this is the "Exhaust Line from the .eng file:

)

Exhaust1
(
0.09784 5 -0.858
0 1 0
0.1
)
Exhaust2
(
0.09784 5 -3.0
0 1 0
0.1
)
)
)

Wagon ( Ctn-GP9-604 )

When you do a 'paste' of a section of data into the ENG, be careful of the parenthasis ().

The .Eng file was already complete I just copied and pasted the line here for it to be viewed to see if it can be fixed to show both exhaust plumes in OR because as it is now only one shows.

ok I still can't get it to show two exhaust. Lets look at the 3DTS_SJVRR_GP9_1754. It came with the Tehachapi Pass add-on. Everything I have tried results in an OR error of the .eng file.

I got it to work. not sure if it's right or a glitch but i named both the exhausts in the eng file as Exhaust1 and it seems to work.
