Unrecognisable Eng Files

[davidaward]

Hi all,

it may seem a while since I've posted on here- a long time in fact but I've finally decided to get my act together and finish my version of Ravenglass and Eskdale Railway. However I am having problems. I have several eng files (which I might add are heavily modified by me) which show up in activity editor and consist editor, but not in the selection menu when I fire up MSTS. If I use the locos on an activity it comes up as 'UNKNOWN'. Copying similar eng files but changing file names has no desirable effect either. Another of my eng files freezes on the activity even when selected, but works OK in explore mode when selected.

Apologies if these are old questions, but searched have given no useful results and i really would like to sort out these issues and finish off this package, as I would like to share it with whats left of the community.

Thanks in advance for any help

Dave

Hi Dave
I think the 'Unknown' comes up if there are upper/lower case differences between the names (5 times in an eng file)

solved instantly for one of the locos- will apply to others later

Thanks
