    Screenshots (click to enlarge) are too small to read. See if you can upload ones that are readable, 'bout the size of the ones I uploaded, or larger.

    Maybe someone else can read them, I cannot.

        The screenshots Gerry showed us are bigger than yours. It looks like you have actually reduced yours to a miniature and they are definitelt far too small to be of any use.

          Take the shots again and don't make them so small. The ones Gerry uploaded are 10 times the size of yours when opened to view.

            Hi there RRfan,

            I don't have OR installed on my laptop, but I do remember a problem I had some time ago regarding some Streamline models not showing up in OR. Seems there was some problem with the .eng files that the sim didn't like. I can't remember what it was, but maybe this will tickle someone else's memory and can point you in the correct direction. I do remember, however, that this issue was covered sometime ago in this forum.

              He reports: "I have over nearly 100 locomotives that I can operate just fine in MSTS but only 25% of them show up in Open Rails."

              Not likely that 75% came from Streamline ?

                On the OR initial screen there are 4 buttons at the top: Add, Edit, Remove, and Tools. Click the Tools button and choose Content Manager. When the Program opens, select your main MSTS install. Are the consists that have these "missing" engines listed? When you click on the Consist in the left pane, does the engine show in the list of Cars in the consist in the right pane?

                Since none of the people (and myself included) who have tried to help don't feel like counting the number of engines that display as drivable in MSTS and in OR and comparing the number, how about posting the foldername and filename of a few of these missing Engines and maybe some of us have the same engines installed and we can see if they show up for us in OR.

                  Do your consists have invisocar ? If so, and length of that invisocar equals zero, the consist doesn't show in OR at all.
                  I have edited my invisocar eng file so that the length is greater than zero, say 0.01 m - this helped me.
