Hi all
I just downloaded the new 07 shunter and its showing missing textures on the cab view trims around the inside door windows. Has anyone else noticed this or do I have a bad download?
Regards.....Phill

Hi Phill,
I have the same problem. To he honest, because I'm a very occasional TS2015 user at present, I've not yet got around to trying a verify of files to see whether that fixes it...?
Cheers
Norm

This was reported on Railsim.de, if I remember correctly the missing texture is included in the market place re-skin, but I could be wrong. There is also an issue with the tail lights as well.

Well now. Having acquired the blue reskin from the Marketplace - because I'm a sucker for rail blue - and then having verified files, I can report that the cab textures are now fixed.
Unfortunately, having gone about things in a relatively unscientific way (loosely: "Oooh! A blue one! That's for me!" followed by "Ah well, since I'm sitting here I may as well verify files...") I don't know which of those two events fixed it - sorry.
(Darn it! Six months I stayed on the wagon and never once went near the Steam desktop icon. Now my wallet is cowering in a corner, glaring reproachfully at me again...)
Cheers

Dang Norm.... Was drinking coffee when I read your post and method of troubleshooting- good thing I turned my head when I spewed the liquid out during laughter - atleast I saved the keyboard.... Though my dog sleeping on the floor was rather miffed.

Oh dear - a day that began with a little innocent perusal of shiny things (“We wants it, and we must have the blue Precious...!”) has ended with tragic consequences for a poor sleeping doggie and a totally innocent cup of coffee.
It only goes to show, doesn’t it?
Right, I’m off to sign in to a Twelve Step Programme before anything worse occurs.
Otherwise, as She Who Must Be Obeyed reliably informs me, when I sleep – and I cannot stay awake forever – “Mrs Dr Beeching” will be lying in wait to ruthlessly 'truncate my network’.
Cheers

I can confirm purchasing the Blue 07 cures the missing texture on the Green 07. My wallet is €4 lighter for the trouble, i know its not a biggie in the greater scheme of things, but there is always something amiss with this lot.

It would have cost nothing to ask someone with RW Tools to check the .Geo to see just what textures were referenced, or to report the issue to DTG.

How would that fix the missing texture?

Again how would that fix the missing texture?
Purchasing the Blue BR Class 07 did fix the missing texture as Holzroller advised a few posts above.

I reported it to DTG (with screenshots) last Friday, but there is no response until now. It can't be the solution to buy the blue livery, if you don't like to do it. Class07Pack01Assets.ap need to be updated (and copy the missing texture from Class07Pack02Assets.ap) But that's the job of DTG.

Neither would immediately *fix* the issue, but in the first case if the texture was included with the green version and merely referenced incorrectly it's a very simple edit of a line of text to point to the correct location.
As for the second, how can you expect an *official* fix for any problem if the providers of the problematical asset aren't aware that there's an issue to *fix* ?
Purchasing the blue version may well have resolved it, but if that had been the response from DTG would you have been happy?
You can't moan about that lot's omissions one minute, but then be happy to make another purchase to resolve it.

Whoa . . . .delightfully interesting post, but I'm leaving this one alone for the moment. (Can you imagine if your weekly shop from Tesco was like this!).
All the best, Steve

Yeah imagine opening a can of beans and they were yellow with black stripes with texture missing written on them.
