And one more. ADVICE 40 -> (current speed limit) ADVICE 45 in 3 Minute(s) -> (next speed limit warning) Time: 17:03:26 Really useful bit of kit. Updates in real-time as you drive.
still they kept the notch in the dash, now a convenient spot to put your drink in, spilling it all over your pants when the cab lurches other than that, the replacement cabs looks really nice do they influence the scripting of the various HST enhancement packs?
They only build on top of the features in the various EP's adding the 11 cabs throughout around 30 HST sets spanning a 20 year period.
Didn't you see the stream the other day? We're all working flat-out to try and get this out to you by Christmas eve (no promises, but we're working very hard at it)
So that means I'll have to wait for next years AP Class 43 MTU pack as I understand? Or simply asked: Can I use the cab pack with only VAL and VP185 AP pack?
If you don't already have the MTU EP you'll be missing out on a lot of what the pack has to offer. On the upside, these will be compatible with AP MTU 2.0 EP in the future.
HST Modern Cab Pack Now Out! Merry Xmas eve everyone, we are pleased to announce that the long awaited update to the HST cabs are here. These are for VP185 and MTU cabs. Those who had previously bought the VP185 Cab Pack will receive this update for free. Please note to obtain this pack you will need to install version 1.5.5 of the launcher from the website as I made a change to correspond with the updated product title and image. Trying to install this with v1.5.4 or below will result in errors due to changes made so please make sure to update to 1.5.5 before trying to install the pack. Check it out here: https://alanthomsonsim.com/product/hst-modern-cab-pack/
£13.99 with the sub discount is amazing value considering how hard you have worked on this. I was fully prepared to pay more, and would have done so happily. Merry Christmas, and thanks for working so hard getting this done for Xmas day
A very nice product, the visuals are stunning Here are a few defects I saw: - Speedo off and ETS light on the wrong button, as seen on the ATS stream the other day - Time on the DAS only refreshes about every 2 secs, so some seconds are skipped - As your pack handles both '7 Cities' reskins, you can get a false train installing, then a scenario using it would start and show no train with a broken cab. Could it be possible that the installer checks for the presence of a reskin before installing the cab for it? Thanks!
I'm also having trouble using it with the Major Wales VTEC/LNER reskins. The cab just doesn't work at all, and defaults to the old cab. This is a shame because those are by far and away the best quality reskins for VTEC/LNER.
The pack doesn't support those sets just yet. There are a few issues to whip through with a small post launch patch - I'll look to include these as part of that patch. Hope this helps.
That would be fantastic if you could, as those reskins are superb. All else is well, and looking amazing here BTW.
I love the way your train sim looks. Your settings are spot on. Awesome job on the cab too I should be getting it soon
Thanks. I use ReShade and RWEnhancer Pro. I can give you settings if you want... let me know in a PM... best not mess up the thread with off topic stuff

Ahh... Ok... I thought I'd done something wrong installing the LSL skin. I'll be quiet and wait for the update
Hi dunkrez, since the latest update I seem to be experiencing lagging with any scenarios using the cab update pack. Even with a non demanding route such as Western Mainlines this seems to be quite notable (down from 40 -50 fps to 10 - 15). Any non HST scenarios seem to be running fine. Please could you look into this when free, thank you.
I have no FPS drops that I can notice. Although, all is not rosy here.... Since I re-installed everything the other day, none of my VP185s use the new cab... not one of them. I've re-installed several times, and nothing. Only MTU variants use the new cab. It's not like It's something I'm doing here, as I'm using the ATS installer, so I have no control over what is installed or where, and there's no file to download to install in manually. I'm at the mercy of this installer, which seems to totally ignore all my VP185 HSTs because.... reasons. (shrug) All was well when it was only the VP185 pack. This seems to be since installing the "modern" pack on the 25th. Why is there no manual install option?
I no longer have any VP185 cabs LOL. I hate the ATS installer. Not the first time It's caused me issues.
There are VP185 cabs in the EMT VP185s, and the LSL VP185s - I'll add more over time no doubt, but it was important to represent what cab went in what properly.
No, you misunderstand. I have literally no VP185 modern cabs whatsoever I'm not blaming you... I think the ATS installer has just had some kind of psychotic episode. I'm gonna roll back a couple of back up versions and start again I think.
Oh, I get you! Sorry, cross purposes there Hmmm... well, I just submitted MCP v2.4 to beta, hopefully will be close to having all those creases ironed out soon enough.
It would be good as Pookeyhead suggested to have a manual installer rather than relying on the ATS version.
Much much better, I was having to turn on the cabin light in tunnels or at night just to see the speedo (no HUD thanks to the advance speed warning thingie) now I wont have my sleep disturbed by an annoying interior light.. :p
