Second freight anim not showing up in the sim

[chosenfrozen44]

I have to be missing something or have something out of order. The handbrake is visible but not the snowshields.

Wagon ( WE_SD40-2_7347
Type ( Engine )
WagonShape ( WE_SD40-2_7347.s )
ORTSFreightAnims
(
MSTSFreightAnimEnabled ( 2 )
FreightAnim (SD40SnowShields_Exhaust_Lifter.s 1 1)
FreightAnim ( SD40FAHandbrake.s 1 1 )
Size ( 3.318m 4.768m 20.75m )
Mass ( 181.5t )
WheelRadius ( 20in )

From what you've posted looks like there is no closing bracket for the "ORTSFreightAnims" I marked the opening bracket in red. Closing bracket in green? Refer to manual section: 9.3.2 OR specific freight animations and pickups

Perhaps this will work:

ORTSFreightAnims (
	MSTSFreightAnimEnabled ( 2 )
	FreightAnim ( SD40SnowShields_Exhaust_Lifter.s 1 1 )
	FreightAnim ( SD40FAHandbrake.s 1 1 ) )
Size ( 3.318m 4.768m 20.75m )

Never saw it done like that before with 2 MSTSFreightAnimEnabled ( 2 ) and 2 anims, interesting..........

I know this will work:


Remove this:

ORTSFreightAnims
(
MSTSFreightAnimEnabled ( 2 )
FreightAnim (SD40SnowShields_Exhaust_Lifter.s 1 1)
FreightAnim ( SD40FAHandbrake.s 1 1 )

Use this:

ORTSFreightAnims
(
MSTSFreightAnimsEnabled ( 1 )
FreightAnimStatic
(
SubType ( Default )
Shape ( SD40SnowShields_Exhaust_Lifter.s )
Offset ( 0.0 0.0 0.0 )
)
FreightAnimStatic
(
SubType ( Default )
Shape ( SD40FAHandbrake.s )
Offset ( 0.0 0.0 0.0 )
)
)

------------ ---------- -----------

The Offset allows you to move it around if you want to:
Offset ( 0.0 0.0 0.0 )

------------ ---------- -----------

This will work too:

ORTSFreightAnims
(
MSTSFreightAnimsEnabled ( 1 )
FreightAnimStatic
(
SubType ( Default )
Shape ( SD40SnowShields_Exhaust_Lifter.s )
Offset ( 0.0 0.0 0.0 )
)
)
FreightAnim ( SD40FAHandbrake.s 1 1 )

FreightAnim ( SD40FAHandbrake.s 1 1 )

I am now confused. Of the two examples I have highlighted, doesn't the firsts have a missing closing bracket, and the second an additional closing bracket after "Offset ( 0.0 0.0 0.0 )"?

First Highlight: YES! That is copied from the OP and is what is wrong with the OP.

Second Highlight: NO! The first closing bracket closes the opening one on the 5th line. The second one closes the opening on the 2nd line.

Remember this line
FreightAnim ( SD40FAHandbrake.s 1 1 )

Is a MSTS code that this line MSTSFreightAnimsEnabled ( 1 ) authorizes to use the FreightAnim ( SD40FAHandbrake.s 1 1 ).

It is not to be in the ORTSFreightAnims ( area

I use this all the time

Thank you all! There a reason why you all are some of the best in the hobby! Success! Went with Rick's code and it did the trick!

Thanks again!
