Re: freightliner66
Does it have a Readme, and have you installed it in the way it says? You might be better off asking on the site you downloaded from.

Re: freightliner66
Hi, afterlooking at the download, you need to copy default into the class 66 folder & overwrite the original, also overwrite the numbers with the number folder in the zip. AND delete blueprints.pak afterwards

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\railworks\Assets\RSDL\RailSimulator\RailVehicles\Diesel\Class66 <--it's going to be in a location like that depending on your computer.
If it is the download I think it is then it is just a case of copying the whole folder to the location above starting up railworks go to the tools & docs tab then press clear cache.
I'm sure those that know more about computers will help you of you need more information.

Re: freightliner66
The RW_Trainsim download page says:
Description: This class 66 in Freightliner liverie replaces your green Freightliner. He has the correct numbers :
The "Freightliner 66" folder should be "copy & pasted" to:-
..\steamapps\common\railworks\Assets\RSDL\RailSimulator\RailVehicles\Diesel\Class66
5(Class 66/4) 66401-405
95 (Class 66/5) 66501-520/522-581/584-585/587-599
25 (Class 66/6) 66601-625
7 (Class 66/9) 66951-957
However, I'm not sure whether you should even think of installing this - it actually contains the payware shape file, something I'm sure Railsimulator.com would be very unhappy about.

Re: freightliner66
If anybody has issues with this download accidentally including the shape file (RW-Trainsim does have a no payware policy so it would be accidental) then I would recommend deleting the shape file from the extracted archive and copying in the rest of it.alanch wrote:However, I'm not sure whether you should even think of installing this - it actually contains the payware shape file, something I'm sure Railsimulator.com would be very unhappy about.

Re: freightliner66
The inclusion may be accidental, but it does appear to show that RW-Trainsim haven't checked a file that has been on the site for over a year. I've just posted a message about this on their forum, suggesting they remove the geometry file from the archive.transadelaide wrote:If anybody has issues with this download accidentally including the shape file (RW-Trainsim does have a no payware policy so it would be accidental) then I would recommend deleting the shape file from the extracted archive and copying in the rest of it.alanch wrote:However, I'm not sure whether you should even think of installing this - it actually contains the payware shape file, something I'm sure Railsimulator.com would be very unhappy about.

Has a reputation for including pay ware assets in their download library - certainly had some in the past, but I haven't looked recently.FoggyMorning wrote:Sorry to go OT with this, but what is the issue with RailworksDepot? RSC have the site listed on their Community links page is all

Re: freightliner66
Thanks Alan
Have to say I only downloaded a couple of skins from there some time ago and ditched them quite quickly as the quality left rather a lot to be desired in my opinion. Just indulging in some idle curiosity
