I had a problem like that when I was building my engine in TSM, and I was able to solve it by completely redoing the loco's hierarchy. It took me a while, and I had to replace some parts, but it worked.mrWM734current project: B&O R.R. "Atlantic"

I assume that this occurred when you tried to creats a MSTS object. If so, it could mean there was a problem converting a texture file to .ace. Make sure all polygons are textured. There is a function in either the part or poly menu called "Search for untextured polygons". Run than and if it finds any, they will be selected when done.Read through the conversion report carefully. It is easy to miss problems reported there because there is so much information.Cal Rasmussen

RE: Strange TSM error

Make sure that you have the windows version of makeace located in the UTILS folder in MSTS. Otherwise, uncheck the Compress Texture command in TSModeler.This could also be a path problem in which TSModeler can't find the source or a destination folder for the files it needs to process or it can't find UTILS folder in MSTS.SRV Ron
