Re: Missing workmen / drivers / people
Try making a new scenario on the WCML over Shap and then try adding the same figures you are having a problem with.
If you can get them to appear on the default route then it could be a problem with the scenario you are making on the other route.

Re: Missing workmen / drivers / people
Hi Peter
I tried your suggestion about making a new scenario on the WCMLoS and unfortunately with the same result, invisible people.
I've even edited some of my older scenarios off workshop that I know included people i.e. workmen and drivers and their invisible too!
Oh well another TS puzzling situation
Thanks anyway

It might be you have some corrupt files in WCML over Shap
Because you can see the files in your folder then at some point they were extracted from the WCML2Assets.ap in railworks\Assets\keithmross\WCML2.
Open that folder with 7Zip and extract the Scenery\Characters folder and see if that makes the people appear in the scenario

...which would replace the folders and files already outside the .ap archive. Far better to simply re-name the existing external folder holding the assets then the game will use the default versions from the archive.749006 wrote:It might be you have some corrupt files in WCML over Shap

The OP might have extracted those files for a reason I don't know - and this way it would overwrite them with the default versiongptech wrote:...which would replace the folders and files already outside the .ap archive.

Or just if the were extracted by mistake he could just delete the Scenery\Characters folder

Re: Missing workmen / drivers / people
Yes, but why delete them when simply renaming the folder dos exactly he same thing?---leaving the files intact leaves a very simple procedure of reverting back to the current state if required.749006 wrote:and this way it would overwrite them with the default version

I refer you to my previous reply "The OP might have extracted those files for a reason I don't know"gptech wrote:Yes, but why delete them when simply renaming the folder dos exactly he same thing?---leaving the files intact leaves a very simple procedure of reverting back to the current state if required.749006 wrote:and this way it would overwrite them with the default version
Why else would they be extracted from the AP File?
And IF there is a problem with those files would not renaming the folder back just re create the problem?

Of course it would, but then hiding it again would fix it. It's the quickest and easiest way to see if there's anything wrong with the files outside the archive and whether the default files give the same issue.749006 wrote:And IF there is a problem with those files would not renaming the folder back just re create the problem?

Re: Missing workmen / drivers / people
Gary,
We have both given different solutions to the same problem - I'm sure the OP will chose one that works
