    CRKB_FJG Missing Texture

    I have Paul Charland's CRKB_FJG route installed (File ID 88313 for reference). I've downloaded all 5 parts and have them installed. It also calls for X-Tracks 3.2 and New Roads 4.0, which I also have. But I'm missing a texture and can't figure out what it might be. It's obviously a switch stand, but the Log doesn't identify any missing textures. Not sure if I missed something in the install, or maybe this texture belongs to a different set other than what the route calls for....? I have it installed as a stand alone mini-route. Any help identifying this texture would be appreciated (and I'm completely unclear on how to search for said item in a route editor, so please don't suggest that without also offering an exact step-by-step process....)

    EDIT:
    Well, I found it. It's not a missing texture. It's the MarbleSlab.ace texture tied to the GRSC_SwitchMachine.s shape. The texture is basically a white or very light grey square, and is applied in such a way so that it looks like there is no texture. I changed it to give it a little more "body," but the way it's mapped makes it really hard to be realistic. And the name of the texture makes me wonder if it's also tied to other random shape files in the route.... But that's pure speculation. Anyway, this is about the best I could do, and it's not great. But at least doesn't look like the texture is missing.

    I also found errors with the route, such as one of the activities is missing the main player srv file

      For me, this texture MarbleSlab.ace is also included in routes SoCal and PRR_EAST_REG-2 as light gray.

        Yeah, I think it's a "generic" texture used by many shapes in routes. I changed the name of my custom texture and then went into the GRSC_SwitchMachine.s shape and changed it to point to my texture instead of the MarbleSlab.ace texture, then restored the original MarbleSlab.ace texture from backup. Several of the other switch shapes in the route point to a dark or light grey bridge texture, but that didn't look great on this particular switch shape, either.

          The switch machines were painted with aluminum paint and where pretty clean in the shots I worked from,. The marble texture was something I made years ago, was not aware of others using it but that's OK with me.

          What's the activity that was missing a player service? I can't remember having anyone else mention it was missing?
