For fun I did some research on how this would (realistically) be achieved in Train Sim World. After departing Fulda the ICE 1650 diverts to the...

If you look below the seat on the left there is a red screw valve called "Transmission Override". Turn that valve and now the engine control air...

There is a delay if the engine start is aborted or if the engine is stopped that prevents you from immediately restarting the engine. This takes...

I'm not sure what you mean "stop the brake from releasing". Regarding the penalty brake: you can't. It is a safety feature to protect the...

Unless you are overspeeding and the overspeed protection triggers I have not experienced this myself (and I programmed the physics and simulation...

It's the roll prevention. When coming to a stop with the locomotive it will cause a traction lock within 2.5 seconds and the roll prevention (1.3...

Unfair to put you on the spot but give me your top 3 or 5 most impactful .ini-settings :D

The plan is for these to be manual, yes :) Uh whoops, that was meant to be a reply to the Zg2 sign question. Regarding the keybind door logic I...

Okay after some investigation I know what the bug is, and how to fix it. Firstly, the good news: it is only a visual bug (if you check the MFA...

I was told by a BR294 driver, though I might be misremembering (because I was more focused on the physics data :D ) that Fz1 meant that you would...

Can you clarify this part? What are the issues with stop markers at Frankfurt Hbf?

This is a bug with the audio on the locomotive (and your video is the first time I've ever seen this bug), rather than the gameplay pack. We are...

You should be guided through inputting the train number into the GSMR, after the PZB/LZB test and before contacting the signaller. I just tested...

That's correct. 1. ZWS: Only supports a loco + cab car. 2. ZDS: Only supports two locomotives. 3. ZMS: Supports up to 4 locomotives. DB forbids...

It's possible that what you played was actually a TRAXX :D. Zusi really shouldn't be used as a gauge for realism (other than perhaps safety and...

The BR232 is developed by a different team (headed by Maik) than the BR145 Expert. Could you clarify what you mean by "I'm not sure what the...

I can't say for certain since I didn't make those decisions but my guess would be (and which has been my own thinking when I had to make such...

It substitutes on quite a few routes. Not sure I'm allowed to say exactly which ones at this moment, but it's definitely not just Dresden-Leipzig...

This will absolutely something that I put a lot of thought and experimentation into. I can't really say more at this point. We'll see ;)

Since Lukas already leaked some of our planned features in the TrainSimPlay interview (in German) I might as well list them here ;) 1. Realistic...

Not initially. The feature requires both several art changes and per vehicle setup. It is definitely the ambition that the BR 101 Expert and...

If you want to play the 2022 (original) Kassel-Würzburg timetable with the BR101 Expert substituting the original BR101, or if you want to play...

I actually received the TSC-X controller yesterday. I haven't tested it yet so I can't give a review for those that are thinking of picking it up,...

We are planning on making an Expert timetable for Leipzig Dresden. As for when: it will be released along side the BR 145 Expert, that's all I can...

That’s correct. Any timetable post Rush Hour that have layers with Zacns wagons will depend on DRA.

My hot take is that a route DLC doesn't need a new locomotive included with it. I'm very picky about the locomotives I like to drive, and the few...

I am happy with the LZB curves we have simulated. They are based on a combination of Ril 457 data and the BR101 LZB diagnostics page for the...

We discussed this earlier (I can't remember where, perhaps someone can help :) ). Essentially the game uses the same parameter to check if you are...

Not really. Expert mode will make a big difference in terms of difficulty (since it enabled the fault simulation), but the underlying physics is...

I would love a variant with 4 levers, and I'd pay extra for it :)

If the automatic pantograph selection is malfunctioning, you can revert to manual selection at the back wall of cab 1. This switch would also be...

I don't see the relevance to TSW.

As long as the ASG ("Antriebssteuergerät" = traction control computer) is active for the given traction motor, slip detection and prevention will...

I'm very happy to hear you enjoyed the scenario, I'll let Fabian know :) Regarding the auto-completing steps these were intentional to show what...

The MFD version has a digital display instead of the analog gauges and MFA indicator tray. To input train data you would use the MTD instead of...

I'm raising this thread from the dead since I'm curious, now that there's been some time since the BR 101 Expert patch was pushed out and also the...

What does "brakes went crazy" mean? There's not enough information in your description to identify the issue. If you can describe it in more...

I gambled that there existed a non-insignificant segment of the player base that share my interests (study level simulation). I think so far the...

I'm speaking for the core system now, rather than the BR 101 Expert. For trains to behave correctly w.r.t adhesion inside tunnels the track have...

[ATTACH] This is a screenshot from a recording at 130-140 km/h where the force per TM averaged ~ 12.5 kN :)

The adhesion simulation was totally reworked with the recent physics patch, and all of it was based on tests and recordings of the real...

Unless you played an IC service from the original 2022 timetable by mistake I can guarantee that the train was all Expert vehicles :) There are a...

Respectfully, I think this criticism is much less valid today than it was at release. The BR 101 Expert has layers on: 1. Dresden-Riesa 2....

What service was this? I definitely changed the stop marker for all the IC/101 services and also the freight (moved back things to leave about a...

We have no current plans for a UK (or US) Expert locomotive. That doesn't stop other third parties (or DTG) from making a UK/US Expert DLC, and I...

This is caused by (in my best estimation) a core bug with the periodic/cycling behaviour of these switches. In certain situations the value skips...

It's very unforgiving (we joked that it should have a black colour for difficulty rather than red). My advice would be to keep as close (or even...

It looks like you haven't pressed Enter ("E" key) to open up the menu.

That's the same crash I talked about earlier. Essentially it's due to the gameplay pack trying to access a function that doesn't exist on the BR...

I just submitted a change to both* of the MFD BR 101s to now match the MFA variant in terms of the speedometer. Regarding the HUD speed behaviour...
