DT /Armstrong Powerhouse MK1/2's Unusable : RESOLVED

[dwaterman60163]

Hello, I am very new to these forums!

I recently purchased the Digital Tractions MK1 and Mk2 coach packs from Armstrong Powerhouse. I managed to download and install both packs successfully (or so I thought).
I also successfully created a free roam scenario with two MK1 coaches and a loco. However, upon loading the scenario and then clicking on the train the game freezes and crashes. This appears on the desktop after it crashes (if it helps):

The MK2's suffer from the same problem. I did randomly try another livery, and the 'maroon late' coaches seem to work! Strange!

Any help would be appreciated. I searched through some other forum posts, but couldn't find any solutions, if there are any forums with solutions I would gladly be informed.

Thanks in advance.

I have also contacted Armstrong Powerhouse and am waiting a reply.

Hi, welcome to the forums.

Firstly you have to work out if the problem is the stock, or the scenario.
Which route did you use?
Did you have the Kuju\RailSimulator Provider\Product box combination ticked?

Thank you for the quick reply. I checked in the same scenario that the Kuju was ticked and it wasn't! So I ticked it, and it worked fine.
Thanks for your brief help! I can't believe I was so stupid.

Like Gary said (hope I got the name right) you will need the Kuju folder ticked. The same happens with the AP HHA's if you don't tick the Kuju box.

There is a couple of files in the library by yours truly that makes the Maroon and Southern late actually have commonwealth bogies, and adds a WCRC version, passenger views and removes the need to tick the Kuju provider by moving the coupling .bin file and repathing the reference. The other one adds some InterCity charter versions. I'd say I recommend them, but it is hardly an unbiased opinion - as a new member of the forum I thought they might interest you.

I have realised why the maroon late worked, because I tried them on the Watercress Line, and that as the Kuju ticked by default. Thanks for the help, and I will try your reskins/upgrades.
