I downloaded 3 engine files for the SD90mac UP8508 , 8505 , and 8500 . Downloaded the cab for the 90mac . Following the readme files I copied the cab folder to the engine file : sd90mac non-cp folder . I also edited the .eng file to read " Cabview ( sd90mac.cvf ) "Made an activity useing the 8508 as lead unit saved activity to the Marias Pass route . Went to load activity and get error message " Cab not found " . What did I do wrong ?Any help would be appriciated .Blazer

RE: Cab not found error

Check that you've got the cabview folder in the SD90mac folder.If you do then go edit the eng file for the correct cabview as you've probably done.
Might take some trial and error and as Derek says conbuilder will tell you the error but not how to fix it.

The third unit UP#8500 is a reverse unit, can only be used as a helper, delete the cabview from #8500 and keep it second or third.Jerry
