    TrainSimulations UP_SD70_Engines

    Hi,
    Has anyone had a problem with these engines showing up in the Electric section when you install them? If so, how did you fix them to go into the Diesel section?
    Thanks, Tim

    Yes, have not gotten around to investigation/fixing it. More that likely, the include file path strings are not being read correctly by the TSRE Con Editor. Bottom of my list, because I know what they are, and they do show up in the lists. IF you do figure it out, please post here for lazy bums like myself.
    Cheers, Gerry

      Okay, wild guess because I've run into this a few times before. Do the engine files have the line Type (Diesel) in them? I've found that if TSRE cannot find that or a different Type entry, it'll just default to a wagon, or a electric if it knows it's an engine.

        The " Type ( Diesel )" line is buried pretty deep in the includes on the SD70M's.

        If you don't have the includes, it won't have a type.

        I just checked the ones I have, and all show up as a diesel.
        If you like what you see here at Trainsim.com, be it the discussions and knowledge in the forums, or items available in our library, I hope you'll consider a paid membership to help support keeping the site operating.... Thanks!

          Eric,
          How far down the engine file is that so that I can check?
          Thanks

            Okay, I got it, lol. I re-installed it, and it worked fine. Maybe I was missing something from the first download.
