add the texture file across to, you may have to use the PEVSoft Image2TGA to change the texture file

Checking the kuid from the screenshot it doesn't exist on the DLS and is not listed on the kuid index either, neither is the author, is this your own creation or payware from somewhere?

Re: I am having trouble cloning an asset in TANE SP1
Thanks greeni my first trainz was 2010 engineer edt. I upgraded to TANE deluxe edit. which has been updated to SP1. I have created basic layouts but I want to be more adventurous I have 3dsmax but I don't know what I'm doing, I can't find any tutorials online. your suggestion was over my head sorry.
Thanks clam1952 I am trying to clone an existing asset called Huge brick wall for my own personal use and I am not intending to upload it to the DLS.
Regards Patrick

Re: I am having trouble cloning an asset in TANE SP1
OK, taking a wild guess here? Have you changed the image file? firstly it needs to have the same name as the original tga or the texture.txt file needs changing to point to whatever the image TGA is, it also needs to be an uncompressed TGA, most image editors save as compressed, should be an option to save uncompressed.
3ds Max ?
Some general info on the wiki here http://online.ts2009.com/mediaWiki/inde ... ith_Trainz
Basic model for Trainz in Max: http://online.ts2009.com/mediaWiki/inde ... ainz_Asset
Video of how to create a simple model for Trainz https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=svEDpWSN9JI
Trainz Max Exporters : http://online.ts2009.com/mediaWiki/inde ... _Exporters
This is for Gmax however it is very similar to max when it comes to making stuff for Trainz http://44090digitalmodels.co.uk/tutorials/gmax2.html
bit more advanced http://ianztrainz.com/bump-mapping-in-3dsmax/ also has some gmax tutorials that could be useful.

Thanks I am really grateful I will work through your suggestions, before I try I think the uncompressed image file sounds promising I will let you know how I get on.
