    "Warning: Could not find light graphic LightGlow.png...."

    Recent daily updates of OpenRails produce warnings for each and every piece of equipment that have lights defined in them. Here is a typical example of the error message that it throws:
    Warning: Could not find light graphic LightGlow.png at C:\MSTS_Routes\trains\trainset\TS_COAST_STARLIGHT_ ENGINES\LightGlow.png
    At the end of a well populated activity there will likely be dozens of such messages.
    And before anybody asks, yes, LightGlow.png is right there in the Content folder where it's always been.

    Will it really be necessary to copy LightGlow.png into each and every folder?

    Not seeing that with 1435.

    But then again I don't do updater all the time and instead download the whole zip and replace the OpenRails-Testing folder completely

      I looked in the TS Coast Starlight ( which came with the SP Shasta Route ) and ( of course ) there is no LightGlow.png .... So I am completely at a loss why Open Rails is looking there for one.

      You are correct ... the normal place is in the Content Folder --- so --- Anything else unusual happening on your system??

      The multiple Warning instances OR spews out are to be considered a feature and not a bug. ( I followed a thread about those, and stopping them is more complex than one would think -- just ignore them )

      The reference geepster made to the updater is a possibility --- there have been other instances of it doing something unusual.

        There is a bug that Carlo has already fixed in ORNYMG 161.1.
        Carlo has sent a bug fix to the unstable as well.
