    There is an updated TSW3 version of the Livery Manager. The old version doesn't work with 3.

    There is one little problem- TSW3 uses a different livery file format than TSW2- it's compressed- and Raging Lighting hasn't been able to extract metadata like the file name etc. So for now all the liveries in TSW3 are listed as "unknown." The program allows you to add names yourself, but I don't know how to figure out what they actually are (is "Unknown Livery 1" a Clichfield SD40? Or a blue BR 146?)

    Hi everyone. I am hoping that someone who uses Raging lightning's TSW3 Livery Manager can possibly suggest a solution to my problem. Other people must be using it so I am assuming that something is wrong. The old version used to work but since I have installed the new version (following a reinstalltion of TSW3) I cannot get it to work. I can correctly identify the directories (set library/ set game) and import files but when I click on Save it does not work and produces the error message: "[Err] Unable to save liveries. Object reference not set to an instance of an object" . I am ok with file structures but fairly clueless with coding! Can anyone suggest a practical solution to try that might work. I am assuming that I cant just 'paste' the livery files somewhere? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
