I'm new to the Trainz fourms and i can't seem to download the Baltimore & Ohio 2-8-8-0 Steam Locomotive on my download helper because of a strange cow noise that happens when i press the start button.Is there something wrong with it.:(

I had no idea that there was a large wheelbase loco's like that on DLS ! Nice find !

Do you have any other interesting finds on DLS or elsewhere, in large steamers and super cool big locos ?

I am downloading presently in TRS2006 DLH, and the "cow" never said "moo" to me. The "moo" means that you have temporary downloading problems, or your 100 mb quota is used up today.

Edit: WoW...There are other goodies there (2-8-8-2) search under: Author ID: #45588 CincySouthernRwy

I saw the locomotive listed in my railyard but when i clicked on it.It didn't show the object.I tried clicking the info button and the screen goes black.My computer says it is an error and i have to terminate the game.:'(
 
I was able to download the bogey to my game but the locomotive download says it is missing some dependecies and i'm not sure what that means.An error message pops down the CMP and says it couldn't find anything at the download station.:(
 
After downloading and committing Baltimore & Ohio EL-5 2-8-8-0 7145,<kuid:45588:2100> you'll see it is missing these 2 dependencies:
bogey-2 <kuid:96914:504742>
enginespec <kuid:96914:51474>
These are part of bdaneal's USRA 2-8-8-2 (Mallet) that you can download from http://www.steammachine.com/bdaneal/gbdl.htm at the bottom of that page.

I went to the website and downloaded the 2-8-8-2 Mallet and i noticed the B&O Locomotive is still missing one more asset.Is there anything missing that i should know about.
 
I tried downloading from the steam machine website and the CMP won't download anything from that site.Do i need to change my settings or is it something i can't fix.Help me!:'(
 
You need to go to the site, select USRA Light 4-8-2 (Mountain) for download and select SAVE and point to a temp folder. When it finishes, open CM and select Import CDP and point to the temp folder to select the downloaded usral482.cdp file.

Where can i find the import thing on my CMP,because i can't find it on my computer.Also,i put the 4-8-2 on my CMP and the Baltimore & Ohio 2-8-8-0 is still missing the asset.Can someone give me step by step instructions on how to get the right files on my CMP.I would like some HELP please.:confused:
 
The file is kuid:96914:55479>.It's when the Baltimore & Ohio Locomotive is pointing down with a black arrow inside the download helper,on my CMP.I believe i have the other three files for it when i downloaded the 2-8-8-2 Mallet and the 4-8-4 Mountain to my CMP.
 
I got all the assets to the B&O,but i downloaded it and it still doesn't show on my game.Am i suppose to download the rest of the files from what i got at the steam machine website,because i already tried that and the CMP won't download stuff from that site.
 
The Trainz Content Manager (CM) can only download from the Download Station. When you go to other sites and download to a temp folder, you then have to use CM's import function which is listed as a selection in the File menu. If the file in the temp folder has a .cdp extension you use File - Import CDP. If the file in the temp folder is a kuid folder of files, you use the File - Import Content option.
After importing anything, click the CM Open for Edit tab and if the new imports are listed, right click one and pick Select All then press Ctrl M to commit the kuids. After they are committed you should check all of them for errors (!) or missing dependencies. Ignore Warnings but fix the Errors.

well that is not as bad as i have it.

None of my scenarios work,

When i try to build a railway it goes mental,

My screen keeps freezing,

my controlls suddenly lock,

And my game can't even connect to the content manager to download anything.

To make it even worse at the moment when i try to install service packs it comes up with an error. :'(
 
Alright,i modified all the assets from the steam machine site with the green triangle showing they all been modified.Now what am i supposed to do next.
 
I went to try TRS 2006 and i finally have it on my game now.Thanks for the help.I can't wait to ride this beauty.:udrool:
