Coaches do not substitute in the game (unfortunately, it is a quite heavily requested feature so maybe it will change some day, but right now this...
I'm not quite sure what the answer is to your question, except that the BR101 Expert has pretty much the full "Bremsgerätetafel" (Brake Equipment...
Don’t derail the thread please. It is meant to inform people about important facts regarding the DLC, not to debate printing :)
DTG definitely hasn't ignored us, but since this DLC is unique in that it requires duplicate timetables for the cab car to be drivable (and not...
It means what it reads :) Any new route DTG releases where the DB IC layers in will use the original BR101 and coaches. A BR101 Expert layer will...
I assume you mean the BR101 Expert, since the manual states 22 services for the cab car? The BR101 Expert also substitutes on 23 services for...
No that's not what I meant. Sorry if that is what it read like. I'll update the OP to clarify (fitting in a thread with this title I guess :D ) On...
Just a few minor things that allow the IC coaches to be detected by the BR101 Expert. Nothing very interesting and none of it will be noticeable...
I don't have an answer for you on that yet, but when I do I'll include it in some form of post release thread (as I usually do if you check my...
No, definitely not, that would ruin the point of the duplicate timetables :)
I didn't see this question before. The doors should work in free roam, the same way they work in service mode, as long as the released side has a...
With Expert Mode enabled, these are the necessary steps: 1. Input data into the ZDE (or it will run in the "Grunddaten" aka basic data mode where...
See my comment above :)
Chaos Factor has 0 affect on the computational cost, it just makes faults more probable to occur. Enabling the fault simulation would in theory...
5. The cab car will be compatible with the Railpool Vectron, DB BR111 and DB BR218 on release, more are probably compatible but I have not tested...
I responded to that earlier in this thread. The answer is no. The BR101 Expert is one of the few situations where this is needed (due to the...
I added two points, because I saw them asked in the stream preview thread and OpenMinded mentioned it here. The bad news about the automatic door...
Interesting. I haven't encountered those exact issues myself. For me it was always the opposite. For example I wanted to try to make the Vectron...
I have edited the quoted comment to say "unknown reason" because I don't know why the BR101 Expert substitutes on Dresden-Chemnitz. That is what I...
I would never recommend basing a purchase decision on future hopes, but it's certainly my intention that if there is a route in the game that...
I'm one of the developers of the BR101 Expert DLC, so I thought I'd clarify some misunderstandings that I've seen on the forums since the Live...
Just to push back a bit on what you said in response to Maik, but making no statement on the 218 since I'm not familiar with it. Füllstoss varies...
Yep, that's about right :) All coaches* have TB5. This means that the doors automatically close and lock at 5 km/h or above. This was the first...
Because it's been a while since release maybe I can give a few hints :D I'm basing this on the M9, but other than how to actually start the ACSES...
The IC coaches that come with the BR101 Expert are separate from the old IC coaches (or other similar coaches like the ÖBB IC coaches etc) so...
You misunderstand the situation. I have explicitly stated that I was not able to reproduce this issue in the editor (and later also in the PC beta...
Me trying to reproduce it in the editor/PC beta build had a very specific purpose: to confirm that it was actually fixed "at the source", so to...
Was that question directed at me? If so I think you are mistaken about my role.
I have tried the exact steps in the videos linked here to try to reproduce the bug in the editor and was unable to do so. I have also had at least...
Not sure if you meant ASC is set too strong in the game or IRL, but without divulging too much the number I tuned the trains for is based on some...
1. The cab aspects are different. If you look on the Harlem Line M7A you see that it has letters rather than speed codes (M, L, R etc). Some of...
Correct :) ATC requires a certain deceleration rate to not trigger a penalty brake application (so called Brake Assurance Rate that is indicated...
Nope. They were quite significantly changed for LIRR V2. That's not saying that the route would be unplayable without them, but your statement was...
That's definitely a bug, but I'll have to investigate exactly where the bug is located since the interface between LZB and AFB is quite complex on...
ATC = signals (it does this by picking up "pulse codes" from the track). The lowest code is 15 mph, so if you are approaching a "Stop" signal, ATC...
There's a small locker behind the drivers seat (on the left side). If you open that, there will be a parking brake lever inside.
It varies too much to give a "cookie cutter" answer. If you are departing with restrictive cab aspects or if the track speed is really low (like...
This doesn't sound like it is intended. AFB should only lock out like that if you apply brakes yourself ("AFB Fahrschalterquittierung"), but I...
That varies. On LIRR this is not the case.
I haven't seen that yellow livery before but It looks great imho!
Thanks everyone, that makes me happy to read :) DTG JD Any chance this thread could be stickied in this subforum for a while?
Manual is mostly/more correct here, if there is disagreement follow the manual. The only things incorrect that I can see with the manual are...
Note that the indication describes the state of the ATC Test itself, not ATC. It will stay "NOT READY" most of the time since while you are...
Hauptstrecke Rhein-Ruhr is my biggest wish for a German upgrade & extension. Being able to let the BR101 stretch it's legs for close to an hour,...
HVAC turns off when you lose third rail power in two-car unit and then turns back on automatically when voltage is recovered. However, the startup...
I have been watching a few streams of people playing LIRR and also seen some questions pop up. Since I was responsible for the simulation setup...
Thank you for taking the time to test this :) It's a relief to know that the Vectron is working as expected with regards to neutral sections in...
Thanks for reporting this, if it only works with Austrian network selected that is definitely a bug and not intended. I will investigate in the...
This is very surprising to me since I designed the under- and overvoltage protection on the Vectron with Vorarlbergbahn in mind. It was definitely...
Unfortunately both the livery and the coaches are wrong, even if the BR101 was introduced a few years before the route is set. The coaches are "IC...
