Thank you!

Shawn, I'm glad to see you back here.

To Jimmy Lambert
I really appreciate you sharing all those PRR paths. It's going to make it easier for myself and others who want to create activities. No need to re-create the wheel.

I have...

The consist (or activity) files would be looking for the .eng files. But openrails will still run without problem even if it does not find them.

The advanced course is to actually modify the...

Steve is right. I remember bicycling there in the eighties and seeing the water block the freeway.
Christopher

Reading the documentation has me wondering if DirectX got changed in some way that is causing problems? But here I am out of my depth.
Christopher

Something else. After some more fiddling and a rebook, I can now get "Send Main Image to Editor" function to work, but it opens photoshop with the tiny un-scaled unreadable menu font not fit for my...

I'm tearing my hair out about this and still haven't solved it.

The problems seem to have started when windows 10 updated. There were several other problems that started at the same time:
- I...

I'm really happy to see that Rutland steamer!
Christopher
(I live 90 minutes from the Rutland now, but was 7 minutes away for some years)

These look GREAT

I was thinking I should do something like this. But thinking doesn't get far without action! I'm glad you're doing it - I'm not sure I would have.

Here is a view of each tank car in this bonus. If you look closely you can see that each has unique characteristics, as per prototype (different fonts, mostly) - this isn't just renumbering of the...

I too have been thinking about you, hoping everything is ok.
Christopher

Barrie, nice to see you back. Stay safe!
Christopher

That was my thread. I still haven't solved the issue.

I love using .dds It is so much easier.

But I want to make .ace files for BLWZT customers, many of whom probably would not be able to...

I always look forward to your work, Jerry. The L&N is out of my territory some, but I am vicariously learning about it and appreciating it through your efforts.
Christopher

Nice job! I can tell exactly where I am!
Christopher

I do not see any registry entries for MakeAce or TGATool2. Unless they are under a name I don't recognize or a section I didn't expect (I looked in all the "software" folders)
thanks
Christopher

Thanks Doug.
I did reinstall the .dll's (into the system 32 folder) but it had no effect. MakeAce isn't saving the alpha layer and TGATool2 simply isn't saving at all.
Christopher

Thanks Pete
You are making it easier for me to think about taking the plunge and jumping into route building
Christopher

Yes, that would be the obvious question, wouldn't it be.

Some more testing:
- Saving with TgaTool2 does not work at all, either in alpha or no alpha
- Right clicking and choosing "open with Ace...

Hmmm. I tried a few different .ace files with alphas. None worked. However all have a common denominator: they originated in .tga files from my old version of photoshop. When opened in TgaTool2,...

Thanks to the Santa Fe Railroad Historical Society

Edit: I see you already have what I found. I guess that isn't strictly...

Pretty exciting, Tyler!
Do you have plans to work from? Would you like me to see if I can locate some?
Christopher

Fred: An acquisition like this typically happens in stages, not unlike buying a house when you have an agreement, but later have a closing. Typically deals like this involve a transaction after...

Thanks
I looked again and permissions seem fine. Using "run as administrator" has the same problem.
It is odd that it would just be the alpha channel. One would think a problem would block the...
