    Good day

    I would like to use the semaphores from the add-on (DTG - European Loco & Asset Pack Add-On)

    I am specifically referring to the German Sem (De_Sem_Main_HP 1T) shaped semaphores

    Is there any manual instruction on how to set these semaphores to work?
    After setting them in the editor, I mark the beginning and end on the track, but I don't really know what to set in the options on the top right to make them work
    The S1 signal is constantly displayed for me and I can't force them to display S2

    I am probably doing something that I haven't configured to make it work, so please give me a small tutorial or a link if there is a guide on the web on how to configure it correctly

    https://drive.google.com/file/d/1tTtyz4Bd538J9N_0xUDNgfRMHutNs1T4/view?usp=drive_link

    In the
    reference-signalling
    manual I read:

    If you go to the 2D map (press 9) you should see a red dot representing one of the signals and a green dot representing the other.

    I only see red and no green

    So I'm doing something wrong in the settings

    I would appreciate any help to make it work

    Best regards
    Witold

    There are two types of HP1 in the game
    One is DEs_Sem_Main_HP 0T.bin and the other is DEs_Sem_Main_HP 1T.bin

    With the 0T version there is just a Signal link to place just after the signal

    With the 1T version it is used where a line joins between this Signal and the next one
    The first link is place just after the signal and the second after the junction
    The system checks the points are set correctly and the track is free before clearing.

    Thank you very much for your quick response

    Now it works fine, I had too short track sections for testing and I didn't have a locomotive on the track :)

    I have one signal in DTG - European
    and I also found Deutsche Formsignale V9.8
    and it is supposedly a corrected and improved version of the one in DTG - European
    Is it better to use these DTG - European or Deutsche Formsignale V9.8 semaphores
    so that they work in version 2024

    Regards

    I have no idea what DTG - European means - the signals I mentioned are in Kuju/RailSimulator.

    Look at German Signals on RailSim.de
    Some of them have a Readme file to explain how they work
    You would also be able to find out answers to your questions - you can post in English or German.
