Warning: This asset requires a shadow mesh, but the mesh table does not contain one.

I keep getting this error from some of the older content for trainz. How would I fix this problem, If it is possible?

Sounds like your using 2010. I get the same message and ignore it. The difference being the object doesn't cast a shadow.

Thanks for the info "fran1". Though these errors annoy me. I am hoping to find a solution.

Pev has a shadow making tool.

You can if you want to put a shadow mesh in the body shadow file and a mesh table in the config file.
The errors are minor, same as the missing texture txt files.

Thanks.

You won't thank me in a couple of days, but you have fun.

What do you mean?

One tip I will give you. Clone the original first, then if it goes pear shaped the original is still usable.
Ok 2 tips.
Find a loco with a shadow (in body shadow file) copy/paste to desktop.
3 then.
As above a loco with a mesh file in it's config. Make an exact note of it.
Use both the above in each loco you want to alter.

Enjoy the rapid ageing process. You'll see what I mean.

Shadow mesh? Oh, that. I usually just ignore it. Who needs shadows, anyway?
