    I'm getting an error message - Essential folder is missing -" ....BNSF_ET44ACH_3301\openrails\..\..\Common.inc\L ocomotives". Any advice would be appreciated.

      Hi Curt C,
      the problem is in the .eng file in the Open Rails folder, the problem is solved by inserting the common.inc/Locomotives/Brakes folder in the Trainset folder and here the Std_Loco_Brakes.inc file and common.inc/Locomotives/Couplers the Std_TypeF_Coupler.inc file. I have these two files in the trainset of the atsf seligman route, I copied them and everything works.
      hello from Roberto, Italy​ (excuse me for my english language).

        I think it is referring to the Common.inc folder which comes with some of the OR physics conversion I have made. These are basic starter kits, public domain, you can reconfigure or modify them to suit your needs. Here's a link to one example in the library:



        Other people have uploaded conversion kits for the Feather River, Sandpatch, --- search the library for all the kits.

          If you prefer to not use all the OR physics files, common.inc folder, etc and stick with the basic MSTS engine files....just rename all the "OpenRails" folders found in the parent locomotive folders to "NO_OpenRails" and problem solved for now.

            It Also has black spots on the wheel treads. Looks kinda bad. Still hopeful for a good Payware one.

                  Forgive me please. I'm missing something about the solution for this problem. But the ET44ACHs appear in the TSRE consist editor and the consist file but not in the sim. What am I missing?

                      The zip file needs to go into the Common.inc folder, then into the Locomotive file folder Std_Eng_ES44AH_195-952t.zip

                        Yea It would be nice to have some of the Et44's and some more modern well and spine cars with current Containers. Tiger trains or Trainsimulations would be good candidates. Too bad diesels west isn't around anymore

                            Yes I have them all but, they are dated. I would like to to see some of the newer containers that are not in the library. Like the new Yellow, wall-mart, Xpo logistics, etc.
