The required animation file is missing from your asset folder.
I have repaired similar errors by finding a similar asset with the animation file. Then use copy and paste to place this file in the appropriate folder. Then save and commit

I downloaded Ridgeway Roundhouse,<kuid2:210518:1110:1> and it has no errors. It doesn't have an animation file but uses spinner.im for the turntable.

G'Day Bob, thanks for the information, although that one is not the one I was having the problem with I will try to use it instead.
Regards and thanks.

G'Day All, I went into surveyor and the round house was working when you use find asset it shows up OK. I would rather not rip it out as I would have to take the turntable out as well because the replacement item is complete with turntable.
Can anyone tell me how to fix it so I don’t get any error, the folder contains the config file and a folder with all of the graphic files in it, here is the config file.

kuid:43955:28007 is an early Trainz kuid of kind "mocrossing". This was originally intended for use with animated crossings and normally used an anim.kin file and therefore expects to see one listed in a mesh-table container. This kuid doesn't have a mesh-table so the simplest solution is to put one in. To fix kuid:43955:28007 select it in CM and pick Edit - Edit in Explorer. Then double click the config.txt file to open it in Notepad and add the following lines:

mesh-table {
default {
mesh ridgway_roundhouse/ridgway_roundhouse.im
auto-create 1
}
}

Also delete this line:

mode0 "Ridgway_Roundhouse"

Then save and commit.

G'Day All, well I feel like a bit of a dunce the answer was staring me in the face all of the time and only that I read another post along the same lines I may not have realized.
The error line says in brief:- ridgway_roundhouse/anim.kin' (no resource).
And that is exactly what it wanted, I did a search files and folders got one and shoved it in the folder with the graphics in it and all is well in the sim world. I visited the round house in surveyor just to make sure and all was fine.
It seems sometimes we cannot see the forest for the trees.
Thanks for all suggestions and help.
Regards
Barrie

Thank heaven for knowledgable people like you Bob.

I was struggling with this error in most of Eldwane's (and some of Mike Banfield's) road intersections. They are made as mocrossing objects. This solution clears the CM3.3 error messages and means I don't have to find any anim.kin files to shove in (if I understand it correctly).
