played a bit today and looks like they completely changed the multilevel cab car upper screen... you cannot now really go into other selections, BUT it shows line voltage, tractive effort/braking effort and if you zoom in a little bit, you can actually see the mode you got engaged on the loco, D for diesel and E for electric... havent checked how it shows for ALP46, this is how it looks for ALP45
Why after the patch loco starting with the bell of shutting engine in electromode in Hoboken? Without patches, we started in diesel mode, which is correct. After the previous patch, we started in diesel mode, but with the pantograph raised. And now the diesel mode has been completely lost somewhere. Is this some kind of joke? AI 45-DP run in dual modes at the same time. It makes both diesel and electric sounds. Yes, you fixed the coupling, but at what cost... Could you please stop breaking things while you fix them?
The one that keeps confusing me about this loco is how just about all the starts in Hoboken I've had so far begin at electrified platforms, and the whole route up to Newark is on tracks also used by the Arrow III... I think I've only had one service start at platform 18 where being in Diesel mode would make sense. The entire loco really feels underserved by not having the Montclair-Boonton branch
Ps5. The buzzer on the Alp45 is now silent after the patch. Please, bring back the audio for the buzzer!
Ps5. The latest patch also broke announcements on the ALP45. I no longer get the in cab “the next station stop is…” Btw they work fine on the Alp46. DTG Adam are you guys aware the last patch broke the audio for the buzzer and in cab announcements on the Alp45?
Good, Im glad it’s not just me. Noticed it last week, the day of the update. Good ol’ DTG, breaking as they fix.
If you zoom in closely, the coupler that are holding the Multilevel isn’t connected to each other. Very short coupler and is not good tbh
Thank you for bringing this up. We've submitted a Jira ticket for this and pinned the devs for awareness
Would like to put focus on this point as it's still not fixed, and it renders the loc completely unusable for free roam on any unelectrified US route. Which happens to be most of them. Bit of a shame. I just thought I finally found my "private" multi-purpose loc
the 13th november patch really messed up the ALP-45DP, that's the truth imo, you guys should roll it back to the 28th october patch at this point I don't even care about the coupler gap anymore, at the end of the day it's just a visual bug
So I had opened the ticket then devs asked to repo the steps, I’ve tried on dev and on Xbox X and spawned the ALP45 on freeroam on LIRR2 and was able to path with no issues on both. If you have any video showing the issue as I wasn’t able to repro the issue . Thanks
Just did some testing: - If I spawn one of the formations with a cab car it lets me set a path - If you uncouple the cab car then it does not let me set a path - If you spawn it originally as a light loco it does not let me set a path Tested on PC Steam on Midland Main Line route (though I imagine it happens on every unelectrified route/wrong type of electrification) (Deleting the electrification requirements in the ALP45's RVD file should fix it)
ok I confirmed the issue. I took a capture and updated the Jira. Good news. Item has been assigned to a dev to work the issue in the future. thank you for the info
