HeyI downloaded Deweymitch's M420W cab and I have a few problems. I want to add some stuff to it and can't get it open in the cab editor. What causes that problem???? How can I fix it??? Help would be appreciated.Redfox

RE: M420W Cab

Hey Redfox
I think I know what the problem is and it was an oversight on my part. If you look in the cvf file for the line EngineData it probably reads EngineData (STLA3569)or something similar. I believe if you change the STLA3569 to match the Engine ( ) in the eng file this should work. I have had this problem before and was told to do this and it worked. Normally, or the default, was GP38. Hope this helps and works.Dwight

RE: M420W Cab

HeyThanks! It works well! I'm going to add some stuff to it and I'll post a shot of what I've done. I'm thinking of updating the speedometer to a Q-Tron Computer like in the M420Ws of now (well, some of them ) and some other stuff.Redfox
