Correct textures for rolling stock aren't being used?

[bnsf_bear148]

I've been working on some reskins for the base Seligman BNSF Grain hoppers. I have completed the reskins, however, when I try to view them in TSRE consist viewer, instead of showing the reskin, it shows a transparent car with white squares. To create the reskin, I found rolling stock files, copied them, edited them and the final folder for the reskin looks like this.

Everything seems to be correct, but when I try to view the rolling stock, the .dds texture doesn't show. I feel like its a texture linking type problem because when I drag the original texture from the car I was doing the repaint on and dragged it into the same folder as the reskin, it showed the original car texture and not the one I edited. I'm very confused about this and any help is appreciated.

I apologize for the low quality screenshot.

Do the hoppers you are using already use .dds textures?
If they are older cars you may have to uncompress the shape and edit it to use .dds.
We are unable to see what the attachment 83307 is. It's the wrong format for the forums.
If you try to run them in OR any errors will show up in the log. That will help with the diagnosis.
Need more info.

if you are changing the reporting marks to reflect your repaint, you also need to decompress the shape file and make a change in the image section there as well, and re-compress it.

I think that may be the issue. How can I de-compress and re-compress .s files? Also, attachment 83307 wasn't very important anyways, it just showed the files in the car folder. If you still would like to look, Screenshot 2022-06-16 021947.jpg.

Nevermind, I figured it out. I just used S File Manager and Archibald.
