I have seen this with other goods. For me the problem was that the train car was not specified in the RRT_TrainCars.xml file. Just check your RRT_TrainCars_Demo.xml and global RRT_TrainCars.xml files to make sure the Fish Car is there. All parameters must be in RRT_TrainCars.xml to completely define the cars.
Since the Fish Car came with the game, I would assume all the resource files are there (Fish_Car.kfm, Fish_Car.nif, Fish_Car_dummies.nif) and buried in the TrainCars0.FPK.

choobaca - I've not messed with this map, but when I was working Hill Valley Steaks, it took me 20 minutes to figure out that I hadn't added the 'Cowhides' car to RRT_TrainCars.xml.

You are most probally correct in your thinking.

here's what is in the global for fish. All this has me confused LOL I was never real good trying to see errors in stuff like this.

<TrainCar>
<szName>Fish Car</szName>
<szGood>Fish</szGood>
<szModel>Fish_Car.kfm</szModel>
<szDummyModel>Fish_Car_dummies.nif</szDummyModel>
<szGroundClackSound>AS3D_CLACK_PLANET_GROUND</szGroundClackSound>
<szBridgeClackSound>AS3D_CLACK_PLANET_BRIDGE</szBridgeClackSound>
<RunLength>30</RunLength>
</TrainCar>

This looks good. Now try copying this into RRT_TrainCars_Demo.xml and delete the lines that say
<TrainCar>
<szName>Fish Car</szName>
</TrainCar>

There may be another global RRT_TrainCars.xml somewhere in your CustomAssets directory that is trumping your global file. If this is the case, I will have to change my stance on global files in the XML directory since too many maps are including them and interfering with others.

uno momento, don't you mean delete everything but those lines??? You need RRT_TrainCars_DEMO.xml to know about which car it is. Giving it the content without the name won't work.

I looked in the Demo folder and at the TrainCars XML, did a serch for Fish and nothing came up!

I swear I saw it in there earlyer. But I added the:
<TrainCar>
<szName>Fish Car</szName>
</TrainCar>

to it and I have fish to deliver! no more CTD.

I have no idea how that got changed??

Sorry, I meant for him to replace the abbreviated XML block with the full XML block in case there is another RRT_TrainCars.xml file interfering. If there are no other RRT_TrainCars.xml files interfering, dwax shouldn't have to do anything.

Ok, looks like problem solved. Missing train car strikes again.

dwax · Post by **dwax** » Wed Feb 07, 2007 11:35 pm

I know what happened now.

I took the Trains XML and Traincars XML from snoopy55's Hill_Valley_Mess and just changed the file names so I could have all the Loco's, and the TrainCars XML never had the Fish code in it. That explains why it CTD.

I think that taught me a lesson. Will know what to look for next time.

Thanks guy's for helping!

Sure, blame me

I had to take the fish out as I couldn't get them to work and the map would CTD with the fishy stuff in it.

And unused fish tend to stink

Haha. I went to go update the wiki with the new map installers and what do you know they've already been done. Thanks Anati.

Yeah, I finally jumped into the Wiki and saw a few of the maps were missing still so working on a few of them.

Is this map out dated now as I was told in another post. I would like try it and see if it is the same as the Demo I got before i brought the game.

Smr Simple!
