How do I get to the file.........

[josephlaban]

I downloaded some D&RGW engines from San Juan Trainz, but for one of the assets, it said " Failed to open compiled texture 'waterglass.texture' to blah blah blah. How do I get to the texture and fix it? I've gone into finder, and the config text, but I can't find 'waterglass.texture'

I'm not trying to be funny, but the error message tells you why you can't find it. "Failed to open" means it didn't find it either. There are some assets that need conversions from the older builds of Trainz into T:ANE. I am not sure how to do that, but I have a feeling someone will be by shortly to explain.

It involves processing 'waterglass.texture.txt' using a free tool to convert one file type into the other.

PEV tool: texture to TGA

I think the one you want is called Images2TGA now.

Download PEV's tools from Shane Turner's website. http://trainz.shaneturner.co.uk/tutorials/index.php/home/utilities/pevsoft-trainz-tools

If you can find the file waterglass.texture, open it with Images2TGA which should split it into 2 files; waterglass.tga and waterglass.texture.txt. Then try to Submit the asset using Content Manager and see if that works.

I had the same problem with the waterglass file and made a thread about it, but it was a long time ago. I had to make a .bmp file to get it to work.
@ HiBaller, did you help me solve the problem? I think it was you or clam1952.

It was probably Clam1952 that helped. At least, I don't remember the thread.
