Would these count for bug reporting?

I'm new to Open Rails and I like it so far. But every time I run a train with a cabcar on it, excluding the pacific surfliner cabcars, I get an error message talking about a fatal error has occured. The error says: System.IO.FileLoadException: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Train Simulator\TRAINS\TRAINSET\3DTrains_Metrolink\Metro link_610.eng. This even happens with the Coaster Cabcars as well. Also, I can't get any of the lights to turn on on any of my 3DTrains F59PHI's. The only exception is the red light. The headlights won't turn on. My Coaster F40PH-2C's lights work, but the ditch lights won't flash or turn on. Is the explained above above worth reporting to the ORTS team? Thanks to the Open Rails team on their progress so far.

If you have logging turned on, a tick box on the main menu page, OR will generate a log file on your desktop. This will list everything that generates an error or a warning in that session of OR. It also identifies in most cases exactly what is causing the error thus giving you the information needed to fix it.

As to bug reporting or not, that depends on which version of OR you are running as version numbers go up on an almost daily basis as known bugs are fixed.

If you have not been to the Experimental downloads page for the latest weekly offering, go to http://openrails.org/experimental.html and download the OR_X.zip file and install it. Try your cabcars, F40s and F59s again and see if the errors are still there.

Yeah, I've got that on my desktop. I just got the experimental version. Every cabcar except the surfliner cabcars dont' work. The ditch lights work just fine. I better report this bug then. I forgot to mention which version I'm using. It's V0.9.

....I forgot to mention which version I'm using. It's V0.9.

That's the current release version, not the experimental.

Download the most recent Experimental (X1916) from this URL http://openrails.org/experimental.html , install it (your current v0.9 won't be affected) and see if you continue to have this problem.

Cheers!

I got the experimental version already. The Bombardier and Rotem cabcars still don't work. Flashing ditch lights work. I'll have to do a bug report. It's probably something minor.

I wonder if it has anything to do with aliased cabviews and what's actually contained in the cabview file? Perhaps my files have an incorrect parameter that MSTS lets by, but ORTS catches.
