What is that error for???

Post by ImCanadian »

:( I still don't understand with the program of Microsoft Train Simulator even after 2 years simming the Train Simulator. There is no problem to startup the program of Microsoft Train Simulator but after the Route & Activity Selection of 3DTS Cajon Pass Route there is an error message and I have to close the program because of numerous clicking to keep telling the program "Yes" to load the program on my computer. Now you will see the error at below and hopefully someone can help me to solve this problem. Otherwise I can't run that activity on the route that I picked.

Here is the message

Error: continue?

Failed to open texture file

Trains\Trainset\US2Freightcare\7truck1.ace


Now did you read the error above and I know that is a default wagon, US2Freightcar3 from the folder of Trainsets in TRAINS folder. Now what are they talking about the missing texture for the wheels or trucks?? Is that correct?? If yes, ok now where do I find the ace file of 7truck1 in the trainset folder in TRAINS Folder so I can copy and paste the ace file into US2Freightcar3 folder. I did look up through all USFreightcar 1 to 8 and don't see that ace file. I was puzzled with this and don't even understand what is the program of MSTS talking about the missing texture?? Hope that someone can help me with this to solve the problem.

Thankyou

Do a windows search of your trainset folder.

7truck1.ace is a truck (bogie) texture and is included in TSM. It is widely used so you should find it easily.

It is not used by any default item so you need to check that wagon file name again.
