LocoMod not working

[Genje]

I have downloaded and installed some mods to my game such as the UP mega pack and the digidampfman station kits. I am trying to use these new items in a new save game with nothing in it, just landscape and industries. For the digidampfman station kits i have followed the instructions and activated the koisk forklift, new track, and all the signals/docks that go with it. I have also checked off which vehicles I want in both the objdata tab and the companies/vehicles tab. But none of these things appear in the save game after I exit and save Locomod. Why is this?

You need to check the vehicles under your company's name in the "Companies" tab, or they will not be available. (You need to do this with vehicles if you add them in after their 'designed' date.) Once they are in, the passenger and goods station baseplates should be available, along with their stations.

I have done this, but it still isn't working. Let me post some pictures to try to explain better.

As you can see, I have activated the 2 new types of track, their respective vehicles, as well as the Amtrak Acela in LocoMod. But when I open the save game, none of these appear in the game.

I've gotten LocoMod to work a few months ago. I've never had this happen before

Locomod crashes my custom saves.

Occasionally I forget to actually save the file before playing Lomo again to test it. It's also possible that the program wants you to add in the station concourses as well (if you haven't already).

Other than that, if you fail to figure it out, you can just edit the scenario itself.

I can't believe I never thought of just editing the scenario itself. Thank you.

I have a few other saves i want to edit though, so hopefully i can figure out why its not working eventually. I might just reinstall all of the mods from scratch and see if that does anything.

I don't blame you. I didn't even know it was possible until I joined the forums.

Best of luck, and feel free to ask any other questions on the matter

Figured it out! For some reason windows isn't giving LocoMod permission to save files directly into the C:/Programs folder, so the new altered save game was stored in C:/users/%user%/AppData/Local/VirtualStore/Programs

[Zakos]

If there are other users on your computer, it's possible that someone else is the administrator and only they can access the hard disk.

[Genje]

I always use my administrator account, which used to be the only account on my computer. I have recently created a new "guest" account though, so that must have screwed things up. Running Windows 7

[Zakos]

Ah, Windows 7, that makes more sense. You may just have to move the files manually when you edit them, but I wouldn't know. I've only used LocoMod on WinXP.

[Genje]

Yea I figured it out I just had to move the files manually. Thanks for your help
