There is a particular diesel engine on my several of my TS12 routes, including one of my own original authorship, that I cannot do any of the following to:
1. open the Properties dialog box using the ? tool
2. move
3. rotate
4. delete
5. drive
6. assign drivers to
7. delete track underneath them where they are parked
8. uncouple them since they are together as a pair
Several instances of this particular loco are mere images parked on the track not able to do anything or go anywhere. They exhibit no enginesounds or smoke either. None of the other train vehicle models on these routes seem to be so adversely affected where they are completely unusable. Running TS12 Extended Database repair twice in a row did not fix this issue. The problem seems to either be with the train vehicles or Trainz 12 and not the individual routes they are installed on.
There are no assets in TS12 listed as faulty either.
What happened?
I should note that I was able to ADD additional locos of this same model albeit with no road numbers on the cabs like the frozen ones have.
The b_tch of it is that replace assets does not allow for train vehicles to be replaced so I cannot even try replacing the "frozen" engines.
Should I reinstall Trainz altogether?
I do have all my route work and special modified assets backed up in CDP files.
Could my UserData folder also be corrupt?
Here is the engine model "to nowhere" on my various layouts:
norfolksouthern37's SP SD40-T2 <kuid2:45324:100012:1>
I had several instances of this engine on the same route always coupled together as a pair and each with its own auto-generated number.
I have had trouble with this very same engine in the past in other ways. I would open the route up for edit and discover that this engine had vanished on its own like a ghost. I tried to add it back but couldn't because there was no thumbnail view for it in Trains tab though its name was listed int he search bar. I then found out that Ext. Db. Repair could make the missing engine come back again and the engine worked again normally.
But hold on....I have just reinstalled and opened back up my latest route in progress from a CDP file and now this damn engine is missing from the route altogether! Not under thumbnail tab like before. So, I am now running XDR a 3rd time to see if this fickle norfolksouthern37 loco decides to come back again this time, hopefully, movable and running as normal again....tick-tock-tick-tock
please stay tuned....
