@hauntedclipp I am in the process of updating all the E8 mods, that includes the LUA scripts, so hopefully that'll resolve the issues. fingers crossed

I've been having the same issue as MandoARC since the release of your beautiful E8 reskins, and thus haven't had the pleasure of using them in-game. I've made sure the Demonstrator E8 and soundset were listed before any reskins, but yours are the only ones butting heads with the demonstrator unit to result in a complete crash to desktop. I've noticed that only your reskins retain the options of using labeling (line name, company name, train #, none) that the demonstrator unit uses. Could that be the source of the issue?

I have the same problem. Even if i start a new game only using the engine sound, the E8 base mod an the reskin it crashes telling me there is a problem with the EMD demonstrater unit.
I actually have the same problem with the Central of Georgia, Great Northern and Northern Pacific skins too...

@clarksoon, the Southern E8s rely on the base set—which would be the EMD E8 mod—for everything but textures, and the models themselves. The base set has to be loaded first, before the mods that have it as a dependency.

Forgive my first very inexhaustible comment on the mod problem ^^"

The mod crashes when used together with the base mod of the EMD E8, it says that there is a problem with the "demonstrative" model of the base mod
