Looking for a texture file

[Veristek]

Yep, another post by ol' me.

I'm trying to figure out how to fix quite a few errors with my assets on my route. I've fixed most of them, but there's two texture files that are bugging me.

1. env_metal.texture

2. glas.bmp

Any solutions for these issues?

Run the PEV tool included with Trainz. You need to setup a batch command, using the included instructions.

Here's an example of mine.

Filename: texture2TGA.bat

@echo off
"D:\Auran\TS2010\Extras\Third-party Addons\PEVSoft\Texture2TGA_con.exe" -dxt -trawl %1

Edit the path above to match your installation.

This is placed in your Auran/TS2010 (or TS2009) folder in the following path:

D:\Auran\TS2010\bin\CMPData\tools\Openwith

Edit the path to match where your corresponding folders are located such as C:\Program Files\Auran\TS2010\bin\CMPData\tools\Openwith

This command is now added to your contextual menu in CM. (CMP in TS2009). Right click on the asset, and use the Open with... item. This batch will be listed, and will execute when it's clicked on. You'll see a brief, and sometimes not so brief box appear on your task bar at the bottom of your Windows desktop.

Texture errors are often due to the texture being applied in ways that are not allowed in later versions of Trainz. PEV's PM2IM tool can correct these. If the above suggestion doesn't solve your problem, you might try PM2IM.

Hi,

I'll check out these suggestions. I do have one more texture-related question though.

Whenever I try to change the file type from xxx.TEXTURE to xxx.TEXTURE.txt to fix all these red !'s and errors in CMP, these !'s and errors go away. Then I go into TRS 2009 to play around with the fixed content. However, all the surfaces of the fixed content turned grey and featureless. Ugly as hell.

How do I fix this? A few "built-in" content have this problem and I can't re-import CDP's for those from my backup Trainz files because when I do, they become "open for edit" and then when I commit them without doing any tweaks or anything, after they commit, they get a ton of texture !'s errors. Ugh.

Could you post the kuid number of an asset that you're having a problem with so we can try it?
Also, if you have any builtin assets that are open for edit, don't commit them but do Edit - Revert.
