If a diesel/electric is wrong, it should be fixed.
what is it with you and butts lately :p

back on subject.

i wonder why chris did that with the steamers though.

Back on subject....

I updated all released Dekosoft packs.
It is a little tricky to update compared to the new patch tool but updateable...

For a new install:
Install each Dekosoft pack starting with the Union Pacific Pack first.
Choose web update only on the last pack you install to save bandwidth and time. (all the updater's for Dekosoft get the same file anyways)
install with web installer after the last pack is installed.

For an existing install:
Make sure you have the latest version.
Run the installer for any pack and select only "Web Update".
after the web install has started, use that to install the UP, BN, BNSF packs and the Provo map.


What is patched:
Typos in all GP40's and Union Pacific Coal hoppers.

New locomotive:
UP EMD SD60M

Provo map update;
SD60M added and old style gantries activated.
North American sets and then some...
US SET Ver 3.1.0 updated ~ Amtrak Pack 3.1.0 ~ US Passenger/Metro Set 3.1.0 updated~ Auto Factory 2.6 ~ VIA Rail Pack ~ LTD ED1 Conrail Alcos ~ LTD ED2 NJ Transit ~ DBR E60 ~ TGV Duplex ~ Umbrella Corp. ~ Comboios de Portugal~ Dekosoft UP/BN/BNSF Sets ~ ICE // MegaPack = 1.0.3.

Oh lovely. I was going to ask for a SD60M or SD70M, but I didn't want to come across as demanding. I'll be downloading the new patch ASAP. :D

Hello mister plastikman,

I have a question about the latest update/patch.
I want to manualy check if the update i did perform was succesfully executed. Wich file/files (i think just one name should be enough) do i have to look for in the ObjData folder to see if it was succesfully done?
I´m not shure if i corectly updated the files. I used the exe´s in the Chicago_Locomotive_Works folder. NorthAmericanPack_WEB_install.exe + Dekosoft_WEB_install.exe
The only thing that is not very successful in the wireless version : Bungee Jumping 8o

If you look in your scenario list in game, the Provo Utah map will be 1.1 NOT 1.0.

also, you will have a DK UP SD60M in your train list in scenario editor...
North American sets and then some...

@ plastikman

The updating went wrong with the use of the exe´s i mentioned before. When i used those exe´s there is also no option to tick a box for the web update. There where no files to be found after the installation process wich you have said.

After an hour i redownloaded both the USmegapack and de dekosft pack and installed them both again and there was the optionbox from the webupdate. That went oke for me. After the install process the files that you´ve mentioned before where in the right place.

Thank you for your help and the updates/patches.

I do not have an idea I had to start a new topic or I could say it here, but here is my question:

In the Provo Scenario there is a US flashing-end-light device and when I put it on the tracks an error occured. I tried many times, but I keep getting the error. Does someone knows how I can solve this problem. Here's a picture (I couldn't get the game on the picture):

attach it to a car or engine before you place it on the rails, and it won't crash.

yeah it was never meant to be placed on the rails by itself, it needs to be attached to something.

I hae changed the speeds on the flippers and they worked for me, put them on mine cars and made them look like they were dumping coal into coal trains.

I am having a problem. When I try to install the stuff, the installation window comes up, but the install button does not show up.
I downloaded the UP pack Version 1.0.5.
What is the problem?

This is a known problem that Plastikman was in the process of fixing before his computer took a dump. You must have Vista or Win7 right? And the button is there but no text right? There is no fix for it until Plastikman rebuilds the installer. I know he did some of them after I told him about it but don't know which ones he did. You'll just have to guess at which button is which. You'll either install it or exit.

Tattoo spoke correctly. That is the problem that I am having.
How long will it take till Plastikman fixes the installer?

It will take the exact amount of time he takes before he fixes the installer.

Irrelevant.

Segueing into something else, I've been thinking about all the things missing from this pack (don't we all). Normally, all I would mention is the 1930's GE Steam Turbines and the 80/8080 Coal-Fired Turbine (what a mess), but I saw an Espee U50 in there. That means that SP versions of all these monsters can also be included. As I recall, they had (in addition to the U50s) some DD35 boosters, and the DH-643 diesel-hydraulics. Stats posted tommorrow.
