Problem installing CIE 187 Class

[jasonmcork]

Right so folks, i downloaded the CIE 187 class loco and i also downloaded the cab view.

i extracted both folders to the appropriate folder but i cant get the loco to show up in the consist thingy on the editor.

Now i know it says something in the readme about a bin file and mstsBIn and stuff but to be honest i cant follow it. im normally quite good at that stuff as ive been a flight sim head for years.

i just got MSTS the other day and the only addon's ive put in is the CIE stuff and everything is working grand except this loco.


All help is Very much appreciated!

Hi Jason, welcome to the forums, I've had a look at the loco and what it needs to work.
You need all the following files downloaded :-

IE Class 187 in Clean Livery [959926 bytes] - ie_187.zip File ID: 19472 Date: 06 Aug 2008 - 390 Downloads

141/181 class cab view [1110469 bytes] - mc_bgm.zip File ID: 19475 Date: 07 Aug 2008 - 463 Downloads

Sound Pack - CIE/IR/IE 121 Class locos [740792 bytes] - 121_Class_Sounds.exe File ID: 6874 Date: 03 Oct 2003 - 966 Downloads

The first has a Folder and this should simply copied straight into the Trainset Folder, the second needs the common file inside the file opening down again to the Folder "MC" and this should be copied into your common.cab Folder in the Trainset Folder and the last has its own installer and this will put the files into your common.sound Folder in the Trainset Folder.
After doing all this you must create a Consist of the engine alone in either the A.E. or Conbuilder otherwise it will not show up.
