Did you look at the How to install engines section in the download library?Also, did you follow the readme of the designer? Some come with install programs all the way to only the ace files which are the paint scheme only for the engine and you need to do all the other stuff.Your question is to vague for an answer.David Klemm

Feb-01-02, 02:48 PM (EST) 2. "RE: using downloaded loco's " I'm going to take a wild guess at this.Most locos and rolling stock have to be placed in the "Trains" folder, in their own private little folders (see the Readme instructions). THEN you must go into the consist editor (MSTS or ConBuilder from the library section) and make a consist using the new loco. It can be used by itself, or connected to other locos and cars. A few loco downloads come with consist files already provided. Just copy those to the "Consist" folder, and go. You must make up a consist before the new loco or car will appear or work. Good luck.
