P2 Cock O' The North Help

[nickman222]

Hey everybody. I recently tried to download the P2 locomotive from the DLS. However, one of the mesh files in the deflectors made it faulty. There are newer versions and I tried to download them. Can anyone help?

Actual Error:

Unable to load mesh file 'p2_deflectors_shadow/p2_deflectors_shadow.pm'

Please help!

You need to download Pevs PM2IM tool from here: http://members.optusnet.com.au/~villaump/pevsoft.htm
Then find the file location of the loco, find it in the pm2im tool and convert it. Please ask for any further help

I have a Mac and that is a .exe file. Is there any other way i could fix it?

Oh, thought you were talking about TS2010, sorry. You could PM Pev, he made it and may have something to suggest.
If i think of something i will post it.

sorry

According to your profile you have TS2010 which is a Windows program.

Have you got access to a Windows PC where you could install PEV's PM2IM program, make the correction in TS2010 then make a cmp file of the loco and import it into your Tranz Mac.

I do not have a Mac therefore I cannot verify if this would work.

You don't have to create a shadow for this loco to clear the fault. Simply open the loco's kuid for Edit - Edit in Explorer (or whatever it's called in MAC) then edit the config.txt file to add a mesh-table. If you don't know what that is then copy and paste from here. Then save and commit.

mesh-table
{
  default
  {
    mesh                                "P2_Streamlined_body/P2_Streamlined_body.pm"
    auto-create                         1
  }
}
