Blurred train graphics
I added another paint scheme for personal use to a train mod, which for this purpose I also copied from the workshop folder into the local mod folder. As the original had only one paint job this meant adding an empty, completely transparent base texture layer, and use the old and new paint schemes as decor graphics. Alredy done several times but this time I get a blurred train.

As you can (not really because with these graphics I could sell you this train as about anything from Amtrak Acela to NSW Rail XPT) the RENFE 120 class in the middle is blurred, while the equally treated 449 class on the lower track is pixel sharp. Also the 120 is sharp in Photoshop elements as well as in Windows picture preview. Only in the game it gets blurred. TKR's original graphics are now also blurred, so it cannot be an issue with my own PNG files.
Both orginal mods are by the way by the same modder TKR. Also if I download the original mod, the graphics are fine, so it must have to do with my local edit. But why doesn't it behave the same as other trains after I applied my changes?

Seems it may be similar to the issue I had with rails earlier, when you reach the maximum elements in a visible part of the grame, the excess elements are blurred. See here: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/app/1134710/discussions/1/4138312754141234573/ There was no discussion of the train mod limits but would not be surprised if there is one too.

Good try but unfortunately wrong. I put the train into my Cambodia network, which only features default track and until now no trains at all and it still is blurred.

Made another counter-test and replaced the RENFE 120 with an Amtrak Acela which is hi-res to the pixel. So a texture overflow can for sure be excluded.

Found it, my fault. Lazy I am I copied in the line for the base texture but forgot to amend the folder for the graphics. So this effect occurs if the transparent base file is not loaded.
