By default none... The maps need to be updated to include this text in the RRT_Trains_XXX.xml files:

Code: Select all

<Train>
  <szName>TAG_NAME_GP7</szName>
</Train>

Re: Need help with a map

It is still crashing. The only other thing I did was to indent it with XML Notepad 2007. I checked it over with XML Marker, and found no problems. Its not the formatting of the XML files... Here is what I did to get it working: 1) renamed to ElMexicano (remove space in name, updated XMLs) 2) Stripp...

For some reason after I fooled around with customizing a loco in game, no matter what I do I can't get the in-game loco's to show up in their default colors. A clean install should have fixed that... About the only thing I can think of is that you have some file someplace in the CustomAssets tree w...

OK, got the GP7 skins to work by moving the GP7SkinPak.FPK file to the main CustomAssets folder where all the other FPK files reside. Make sure you are using the 1.0a version of the installer. It should be installing it directly into CustomAssets. The 1.0 installer put it into a subdirectory and I ...

Re: Parameter list project......??

like what's up with the 'gender' tag in Names.xml - what would happen if I changed it to 'F' for Female? - The Gender tag is most likely only used by the people who translated the Names_XXX.xml files from english to other languages. Some languages have different gender formations for the words. Suc...

Great idea. I had thought of doing this myself, but don't have the time with all the new mods I'm trying to put together. I actually have most of it already written up with the new installer version 0.06. This contains an FPK parser (currently limited to just getting the TOC for the FPK, but adding...

Based on the suggestions in this thread (the causes of CTDs) I will write up a program which validates the maps contain all required mods. This includes FPKs and GLOBAL XMLs. I will also include a new macro which can be executed as part of a post-install validation step for the installers.

did you get them to show up atani?? I know at one time I tried them without the installer and it locked up the game. If you install via the latest installers it should work now.. I had a bug in the GP7 installers which caused CTDs. I reuploaded a fixed version (I forgot one file and put the FPK in ...

Re: CTD variations...?

Gang - In my (yet to be fruitful) endeavors I've encountered 3 'types' of CTD (not counting the CTD's once you've acutally started a scenario) Most if not all of the CTDs are related to a resource loading issue. A couple examples I have found so far are: 1) invalid XML file 2) FPK file in a subdir ...

help me with this--
I'm using the Buildstuff Victory Condition;
So far I have only seen OwnStuff conditions with industries.

I would suggest using that instead. An example can be found in the EAST_ONT scenario.

This should offer some encouragement :)

FYI... FPK files must live in the CustomAssets directory and not a subdir!

Anyone try these? did they show up?? I installed the GP7 this morning but no amount of fiddling with the train and traincar xml's with my BC Gold modern era map will get them to show up. I looked at how choobacca and big papa did the new trains in their map and tried to do the same with the gp7 but...
