So i got a penalty brake but a cannot recover from when I touch the screen it just keeps saying driver mode doesn't press relevant button to release penalty any would good. Thanks
Same problem here. ATB can not be released. No Button works, the display can not be used because it is not interactive. Trying to click the red "ontgrendelen" button only results in "Driver Mode" messages on the right hand screen. This sucks massively, only workaround is restart the scenario/timetable.
Same problem on Xbox Series X, TSW6. According to trainsumulatordriver video TSW SNG3 Sprinter How to setup and drive with safety systems tutorial it worked in 2025-03-24, but that was PC and TSW5 time. How is it possible to break as trivial things as simple button press between TSW versions is beyond comprehension.
(I am on PC) Is this a Dodeman (deadman) emergency brake or ATB emergency brake application? I can succesfully "ontgrendel" (release) the ATB if I set the brake lever below the ATB cirterium (30% brake). This is the white circle with two circle arcs around it on your main screen bottom left. So for ATB. - Reverser forward. - Set brake greater then the ATB criterium. - Press the "ontgrendelen" button. - Brake release, continiue journey.
Hello, In my case it was ATB brake as I was not braking fast enough. As per youtube video I had brake at maximum. The problem I had only on the first scenario "Groningen Hero". In the second scenario "Maintenance Madness" I also had automatic brake applied by ATB, but there I was able to release it with "Ontgrendel" button as intended. So it does not work only in certain conditions... Following your advise tried intentionally to get AFB braking. Seems that problem was in fact that brake was in "Emergency braking" position, not the "Max Brake" = 100%. When in Emergency brake then white circle with two circle arcs does not show up and "Ontgrendelen" button does nothing. But when press right trigger on controller (throttle) to move from emergency to 100% then that white icon appears and brakes can be released. So probably not a bug after all. Just need to know train behaviour and be careful when playing with game controller where going into emergency brake is easier than playing on PC with mouse and virtual controls on screen. DEXCON Thanks for help! Next time will know what to do instead of restarting scenario. Dainis
Great! Gald everything worked out! Could have made that mistake myself as well ! Just in case, the same applies to the Koploper (ICMm) as well. Brakes in position 3 before you can release the ATB. Happy driving and best whishes!
