    Big problem.

    Alright, now i have an AFT4449. The good part is that it loads into the Simulation. The bad news is that the rods don't stay connected to where they should be. https://gyazo.com/7bf72a045ab7606974c9bb1fdaa59a0b

    What is the zipfile name of this model?.
    Beer is not a matter of life or death, it is much more serious than that.

        Hi sabalz,
        You MUST quote the exact file name!! There is no such file with the name you gave - the correct name is : aft4449update2.zip

        I have run this loco in MSTS, Open Rails and Shape Viewer and in each case, the rods animate correctly.

        Incidentally, the tender for this loco is erroneously shown as Type ( Freight )

        Of course, if you're referring to a different download, please give its full file name.

        Cheers,
        Ged

          None of the AFT 4449 models I have looked at so far from this library show the problem your video displays.

            It told me to rename the file, and I don't remember the file name. But I think the creator who made "aft4449update2.zip" made what I showed you. If not, I'll redownload to see it's name.

              The readme in aft4449update2.zip only tells you to make a consist and name it how you want. The animation while not perfect does have the rods tracking the connection point with the wheels. The only thing I can say is that if you are seeing what you showed in that video, there is probably something not quite right with your computer system.

              EDIT: I would like to know what the FPS is when that happens. That can be seen on screen by pressing F5.

                  That is getting a bit low for Open Rails. You can see if lowering some of the settings helps. That is done in Options. Turn Dynamic shadows of first and see what difference that makes.

                      17 is a bit low. What kind of hardware do you have?
