Cab Cars

[jiggywatt]

I've been changing out some consists on the Surfliner 2 route for nicer looking rolling stock. For some strange reason the trailing cab cars are not showing up in OR. They work in MSTS. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance...

Explain "Not showing up"

If you mean not displaying when running the Sim, then ZIP up the ORTSlog.txt file and post it.

Just not there... missing alltogether.

There seems to be something strange in the .eng file. Pls. attach file Surfliner_Metrolink\Metrolink_610.eng here.

Ah, this is the frequent problem of the empty effects block, which the ORTS parser does not like and which is also mentioned in the OR manual under the "Known issues".
Remove all lines of the .eng file from 471 to 488 included (that is the Effects() block). That should do the job.

Point of order... that comment really wasn't necessary. If you don't have something nice to say, don't.
