Hi
I think there is a bracket missing on the first (rear) coupling..... and one too many after the second (front) coupling.

The tender .sd file has no ESD_Bounding_Box info.

ESD_Detail_Level ( 0 )
ESD_Alternative_Texture ( 0 )
ESD_Bounding_Box ( -1.400411 -0.026177 -3.85 1.353055 3.994470 4.3738385 )

Hello,
I started with Jon's bounding box info, and shortened the boxes a little to exclude the buffers. Here are my values:

engine: ESD_Bounding_Box ( -1.400411 -0.026177 -6.8738385 1.353055 3.994470 6.2738385 )
tender: ESD_Bounding_Box ( -1.400411 -0.026177 -3.65 1.353055 3.994470 3.7738385 )

Coupling worked fine on front and rear end.

Another thing I changed was the direction of the front view in the cvf file because parts of the FreightAnim were visible in view #1. (You sometimes find the front view turned too far to the right for a better - but not realistic - signal visibility.)

Direction ( 6 12 0 )

Keep on steamin'!
Dietmar

Edit: I've just noticed that the car on you screen seems to be from the FDB_Mk1 set. I also used these cars for my test run. Out of the box these cars have automatic couplings. I changed them to chain (and the brake system to vacuum). Could different couplings be the reason for your problem?

Hi guys :D

I had a problem with this loco too but I think I may have fixed it now thanks to the advice on this page :D It appears it was the fact that there was no bounding box info in the tender .sd file.

the author might wanna make a pathc soon :D

Cheers,

Dark
