OzoB, any chance you can post the files for any skins you didn't put in your other threads? Or are all of the individual files already available? I set up my skin folders just like yours, and it works great :D. I'd hate to have that go to waste or have to remove them for the packs to show. You can post them in your other threads, so this one stays just for the packs.

I think there is only two that i didnt post.I look into it.
I do beleave the versions # numbers are the same as the skins,
posted seperately.
I would just open the gp folders in smr\trains and then delete V3 thru V11
Then your next skin in that folder will go in v12 and start from there.

You could just leave it be the game will read the files that are not packed
before files in a .fpk... If you left it be and put the skinpack in customasst
the game will read your folders then load what it didnt find from the .fpk

One advantage of the .fpk is the game will load faster since it only has to look in one file for all the skins instead of individualy.

I am not sure if the game will read the >fpk files if there in a subfolder.
Ive never tried and iam not home now to try butt. I am positive the files work. I would check your task maneger/ Prosseces make sure railroads exe is not running then put the skinpac in you custom assets folder. See example above. Note that I still have a Trians folder with a gp38 subfolder with skins in it._v12...... If the game does crash, log off or reboot I bet it will work this time.
