Short version:

Download PEV's Quickshadows tool, create a shadow mesh for each of the bad assets, and use CCPlus to add the mesh.

It should do - be aware though that it may create a large box-like shadow.

Errors?

That shouldn't happen.

What errors are you getting?

You will need to use Task Manager to close the program.

Did you read the tutorials given on PEV's site?

i can't edit in CCP because trainz will reject it because it has progressive mesh

That problem can be fixed using the PM2IM tool.

Sounds like a problem with your system.

If possible, can you provide screenshots of the errors shown? Someone (possibly me) can then have a look.

If you are not sure how to do screenshots, use Alt and PrintScreen on the error window, then paste it into Paint or a similar program.

You will need to upload it to a site like ImageShack to get the required link to post here.

Also, what is your operating system?

Those tools are currently the only way of fixing these issues, unless you are the creator of the assets.
