    Mystery Structure

    Hello, I was installing some scenery upgrades, and all is going well overall, your Editor makes it easy and fun to work within the different routes.
    However, I have this "Shadow" showing up as can be seen in the picture, in your Editor it does NOT show up so that I can remove it.
    It DOES show up when in the SIM, again as can be seen in the picture. Any idea on how I can address this and find it, so that I can remove it?

    Thank you for any assistance in this matter.

    It looks like a bug in one of your shapes. It appears that it is visible only in OR.

        Yes, it is only visible in OR. I guess I will have to delete what is there and re-do it. Not a big deal, but it is weird. It is a building that I was going to place but decided it was not right, so I deleted it. Is it possible that Delete only deleted the Texture File portion?
        Thank you both for quick replies.

          How did you delete it? Via RE or TSRE? Then the Shapes s file and Texture ace files are not deleted, just the object reference in the World file. Or did you delete the Shape/Texture file and not via RE/TSRE?

            When I went to delete it, after finally finding it, I found that there was only a "S" & "SD" file and no Texture file listed for it in S-V. So I deleted it from inside the Shapes folder.

            There have been a few buildings like this, with only S & SD files with no ACE files associated with them. I have eliminated or redefined most all of them now. This surprises me, I thought that without a defined ACE file you would see nothing.

              It could have EASILY used a different objects ACE files... (I should say re-used). Are you sure the actual S file had no internal text reference to an ACE file?

                Ha Ha! I love M-P References Pete!
                But there were NO references for an ACE file, and it is not the only one in the Metro North Route. A very fine route by all standards!
                As I have found with some of the "older" free routes from here, scenic items are old and reused too many times. Thanks to the many people who make New Scenery items for us we can "re-Populate" these older routes with more modern items, still within the time-frame of the original route.
                For anyone who reads this and is interested, Download this Route! It is Fantastic!
