Hello all, today i downloaded howiemcdavid's LNER Gresley A3 Flying Scotsman - USA Tour (<kuid:618901:100451>) for trainz 2012 (build of the model is 3.5) and i was greeted with a large amount of errors
i went into edit in explorer to try and fix these errors thinking they were just errors with compression and all the images themselfs are missing
I'd like to know if i should copy the pngs of edh6's flying scotsman into these as a makeshift repair as it appears to just be a modded version of edh6's model

You can use PEV's Images2TGA tool to convert the .texture files to .tga & .tetxture.txt files; then get rid of the .texture ones (but not the .texture.txt ones!) There is a tutorial available on the download website.

thats the problem thou, the image files themselves are missing as the maker of this edit saved them as .png, which trainz 2012 doesn't supportPerRock wrote:You can use PEV's Images2TGA tool to convert the .texture files to .tga & .tetxture.txt files; then get rid of the .texture ones (but not the .texture.txt ones!)

So open each png and save it as a uncompressed tga and edit each texture.txt file and change png to tga. png files are present as just downloaded it to have a look.
It's a reskin of edh6's Flying Scotsman which used tga's, reskinner was informed about this when he originally uploaded the reskin some time ago and seems to have ignored the problem.

They are there if you download into TRS19, maybe TS12 is deleting them as incompatible.
Suggest you contact the creator of the reskins as clearly they were not created or tested in TS12.

Suggest maybe delete, run a database repair and clear out the cache\internet folder, corrupt downloads can get stuck in there and re-installed when re-downloading, then try downloading again.
Or try downloading it from the Web DLS and import it.
