Re: WCML North - 25 free scenarios in one pack!

If you're stuck in the should I, shoudn't I camp? Here's 3 little words for you...download it now! I've just ran the 1997 - 09:10 Aberdeen-Plymouth by KeithThomson. If the rest of the pack is as good as this scenario, you're definitely in for a treat. Nice simple run, but it's the little touches that do it for me. Approaching Carlisle, I was on externals and thought I had a sound problem with the sound of a diesel reverberating. Looking around I could just make out a diesel in the distance just outside Carlisle yard making it's way slowly along the track. Got into Carlisle station, another surprise waited...but I'll let you discover that for yourself. Like I said, little touches.

Well done to everyone involved!

Have the wheels on the Oovee buffer pack mk3s alway rotated opposite of each other? One bogies wheels rotates the right way while the other are rotating the opposite way. First thing I noticed in the 1997 scenario.

I have an invisible train (the player driven Scotrail 156) in the Helensburgh-Edinburgh Central scenario. Curious thing is, I have all the freeware packs installed and nothing is detected as missing in RW_Tools. Anyone know what's going on there?

I of course strongly encourage you to support UKTS and become a premium member if you don't want to wait for the slower free download queue to get this pack. Premium membership is only £3 for a month of unlimited downloads. Even better value is a years membership for £20!

However, I am aware that not everyone is able (or wants to) be a premium member and as the Freeware Packs are for the benefit of all (not just UKTS premium members) it will be uploaded to the alternative Freeware Pack hosts towards the end of the weekend (unless a bug or issue is found). The only reason for the delay is so that the web site hosts do not waste their time uploading a file only for me to update it a few days later.

Please do consider premium membership but even without it you will be able to download and enjoy the pack without any queue's quite soon :D

Looks like you need to copy the correct shape files for that particular reskin. For obvious reasons, they are not included in the freeware packs.

No idea on that one. Never noticed.

This can be a resource issue. If you have loaded and played a few scenarios and then started this one it might be that resources are in short supply. Please could you try the usual exit game, clear blueprint cache and reload the scenario.

Can I also check that you did install the pack by just running the installer and it installed to the correct location (ie railworks folder). The installer does NOT include the GeoPcDx files as Manuel points out for DLC reskins. However, it does copy the files to the right locations providing they exist and you have installed the pack to your RailWorks folder.

I know some people extract the contents of the pack and install by hand. If this is done then the installer will not have copied the GeoPcDx files to the correct locations. I have no issue with this being done of course but I can not provide support for this.

If none of the above applies and clearing the BP cache does not work then please uninstall / reinstall the pack making sure you check the folder the installer says it is installing to.

Thanks.

I've just checked: the GeoPcDx files are missing for some reason. Which directory are they coming from for this reskin?

The installer was run properly, incidentally, straight to my Railworks installation.

They've also not copied for SPT-Orange, but they have for plain SPT.

Curious :D

From the readme of the sepreate download.

Copy From
C:\Program Files\Steam\SteamApps\common\Railworks\Assets\Oovee\BRClass156Pack01\RailVehicles\Diesel\BRClass156\Default\Engine)
and copy Class156_DMS.GeoPcDx & Class156_DMSL.GeoPcDx

Paste to
C:\Program Files\Steam\SteamApps\common\Railworks\Assets\Oovee\BRClass156Pack01\RailVehicles\Diesel\BRClass156\Scotrail\Engine)
and Paste Class156_DMS.GeoPcDx & Class156_DMSL.GeoPcDx

If have any other issues with that scenario please PM me as one of my ones. I have noticed that reskin can be rather fussy sometimes.

Yes, that's solved it, Chris, thanks.

Strange how the files didn't copy.

There should be a batch file that the installer runs here:
C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\railworks\Assets\UKTS_WCML-N_Scenario_Pack_1_Installer.bat

Edit it and add a "pause" command at the end

Code: Select all

pause
Then run it and when it finishes scrolling down, scan back up for any errors.

Nope, no errors.

I've just run it manually after removing the files in question and the copy routine works as it should. I wonder if it never ran from the installer for some reason? Anyway, it's all dandy now, thanks :D
