Only one of them - some kind of air conditioning 1 fault, 34Q14 was tripping continually. All fine after doing the CB/short circuit reset.
I can confirm that... I have no clue whats causing this issue.... cwf.green is this a bug or something else?
Hey, I tried the 145 pushing a Wittenberger Cab and unfortunately it doesn't work as the 145 doesn't recognize the Wittenberger. And I have a question: 145 with Nahverkehrspaket an Dostos. Sometimes at around 70 kmh and AFB the Loco kicks in the "direkte Bremse to 0,3 Bar" and I get a traction lock. Is this mentioned anywhere or am I doing something wrong? Regards
Thanks. Was the problem, that i used the quick release too long, or that i used it at all on the freight waggons? The pressure went up to 7.0 Bar quiet fast.
Because i didn't got the brakes to release in the first place. After that it was experementing and i didn't know, if this is expected, when handling the brakes this way.
PC/Steam The Expert. Simply. Delivered. scenario is bugged in the first minute already. After the simplified brake check I'm supposed to enter the train data, but at this stage only the soft keys up to number 5 have prompts. Same goes for most buttons on the right side of the MTD. Oddly enough before I'm asked to enter the train data, I can go into any menu on the MTD and all soft keys have prompts and work. Also the correct train number is already entered, but it can't be acknowledged since the E key doesn't have a prompt. Also localisation isn't fully implemented, most text messages appear in English while my game is set to German. On a German DLC.... So much for Journey Mode....
I know this is an expert loco but can you make more simpler to drive with using just basics. Just want to get a feel for it before I go full expert mode on it . Thanks
I simply disable error simulation when starting the service. Essentially, the only additional steps are to enter train data and configure the GSM-R. In this mode, operating it is quite simple.
Watch out for services that mention needing a brake test on Dresden-Leipzig, otherwise yes it's mostly just a drop-in sub - train number, driver number, GSMR train number, train data for PZB/LZB, and go.
I rode one service with old carriages on the Frankfurt-Fulda route. I thought brake problems only happened with new carriages. However, if you release the brakes at the start of the service without pressing the button for supercharging the brakes to 5.3 bar, then even the old SHIMMNS-TTU where the brake valve levers are not even modeled, the brakes simply will not release. And after applying the brakes while driving, it will release the slowest. Am I doing something wrong? Service EZ 51194 on FTF.
Thanks, I thought I might have missed something, but the two services I visited didn't have that in their description.
Push the "St" soft key on the EBuLa display, it shows you simulation options like resetting faults, activating virtual conductor and so on. There's also an option for disabling the whole fault simulation for you to select.
Can confirm yout experience. Not a single service starting with a SPAD so far. In timetable mode the loco and the consists behave as they should, apart from the right panto selection, but that's a minor thing and also gives the player something to do and watch the panto change sequence, so I don't mind. Also the brake sheet and wagon list are awesome features. (At least) Simplified versions of those two should become a standard feature so players don't have to exit to the menu screen each time they want to check the length of their consist and so on. Train length is just basic data every driver in every country needs to know at any time, countless mods have implemented it to some trains so it can't be hard to add and not sell it as a "big new core feature", but a simple quality of life update to future and current content.
Dude, you need to read the manual. I know you want to just drop in and play but this isn't the type of add-in for that. You need to learn the basics we've mentioned above by reading the manual.
While playing some services in KWG Expert timetable I noticed that the sheets always have the train number "4711". It should be the same number as in the service name (shown when you press T in game). Here is an example with service 43822: This seems to work fine in the Dresden - Leipzig Expert timetable.
Agreed. Those two sheets are incredibly well made and add so much in terms of usefulness and immersion, I'd love to see them added to (all?) other locos. Probably won't be done, but it's nice to have dreams
I'm a little confused about how the PZB mode is calculated. I ran an intermodal service on Leipzig Dresden with the new expert wagons, BRH was 85 and loco and first wagons were brake mode G, the rest of the train in P. Entering the data it put the train in PZB U, which I thought was odd for an intermodal train but whatever. I started a service (50301 I think) on Frankfurt Fulda, also an intermodal train. Same BRH of 85 and G/P brake setup, but this time the train data sheet had a VMax of 120kph written on the bottom and I still got put in PZB mode U. Therefore leaving Fulda LZB allows me 120kph but if you're doing 120 when you reach the end of LZB outside of Fulda and revert to PZB U, you'll be over speeding. Am I doing something wrong? I entered the BRA as 2 each time because the loco is in brake mode G. At what BRH should PZB mode M be active? The only time I've gotten PZB M so far was an auto train on Leipzig Dresden when the entire train was in brake mode P.
For freight trains, Brake Modes P and G are set depending on the Wagon Train Weight, or the type of Brake Sheet. The Wagon Train Weight [t] consists of the combined weight of all wagons and inactive locomotives (if any). - If the Brake Sheet uses the Timetable Class G, the entire consist (Locomotive(s) + wagons) must be set to G Mode. - If the Brake Sheet uses the Timetable Class R/P, set the Brake Mode Selectors to P or G according to the following rules: - If the Wagon Train Weight is lighter than 800t, the entire consist can be set to P mode. - If the Wagon Train Weight is between 801t and 1,200t, then the Active Locomotive(s) must be set to G mode. The rest of the consist can be set to P mode. - If the Wagon Train Weight is between 1,201t and 1,600t the Active Locomotive(s) as well as the first 5 wagons of the consist must set to G mode. The rest of the consist can be set to P mode. - If the Wagon Train Weight is heavier than 1,601t, all locomotives and wagons must be set to G mode. Page 51 of the manual.
I've read the manual and that has nothing to do with what I'm asking. I'm trying to determine if the loco should be putting me in PZB mode U so often, and more so how the train data sheet can say my VMax is 120kph yet I'm in PZB mode U which is a contradiction.
Because you probably used brake mode 2 on ZDE. This would be for the whole train in brake mode “G”. Completely different rules apply then and only then you use mode 2 on ZDE which puts your train automatically in “U”. In case of first Waggons and loco (config is called LL for “Lange Lok”) in “G” you still use mode 4 on the ZDE, as this is still a P/R timetable. I have seen this being done wrong on a number of streams (including Lukas himself). I have already given the feedback to include this info into the manual.
