I'm not able to reproduce what you are stating. I just tested stopping the train in the OP. At the 0.3% uphill gradient around Victorville I made...
The train in the OP is not even allowed to head down M3 (it has 134 TOB but M3 only allows up to 125 TOB in the westward direction between MP 56.6...
Thanks for the details! Next time you're playing, could you follow your TSW2 steps until (5) but then go to exterior view and check that the...
I haven't tried that specific service yet but these are my general tips: 1. Don't run the BR185 with AFB except for holding speed right now....
You should not need to touch the FspBr to be able to move. As far as I know all the services are preset to have the FspBr released from the...
You can use the "Bremse Lösen" switch for all indirect applications, not just full service. If direct brakes are applied as well it will only vent...
The real train this service is based on uses DDm auto transport wagons. These wagons are limited to 160 km/h. I haven't tried that service in TSW3...
Pretty much, yeah. I guess the one difference is that since the bail-off function is on the independent lever you can *technically* release...
Point 2 explains it. Move the train brake lever to SB first. Regarding what caused the penalty brake application I have no idea. Did you release...
I added some extra information regarding the brake release switch in the opening post. I forgot that it was actually a feature I implemented. The...
Thanks!
That is correct. Not sure how to interpret that last part tbh :D
The IC coaches have had Mg brakes added for TSW3. They are not animated though but the physics is there.
For the last month or so I've been working on implementing some fixes and updates to the DB BR101 for TSW3. You might question why I chose the...
If the editor is representative of the game (it should be) then you only need to change four wagons: all the Kijls wagons. The reason for this is...
Even though Schnellfahrstrecke Kassel - Würzburg (KWG) is primarily a high-speed railway (as the name implies) there are a lot of freight trains...
It’s a good looking machine :D
You can't say that just because DRA rolling stock behaves differently compared to Zusi 3 it is unrealistic. There are tons of threads on the Zusi...
Yep :)
Late reply :D: Unfortunately this data (BPP and BCP on wagons) is only available in the editor. Matt showed how the debug tool looks in a stream...
That's good to hear (about the airbrakes), since otherwise it would mean I screwed up somewhere :D. The airbrakes of the rolling stock/ES44AC...
Are there issues with the airbrake physics on HSC or do you mean the traction/dynamic brake physics of the ES44AC?
Only the difference in friction - speed curves is modelled. Heat isn’t really simulated in the game (afaik), at least not w.r.t. brakes. Having...
No it’s not. EDIT: What I mean is that the BR403/BR406 does not have simulated eddy current brakes in TSW2. You can try it yourself, measure...
Hear hear! Those features are quite “costly” though. Afaik the former requires a core update and the latter requires a lot of graphical features...
Maybe I misinterpret what you mean by different brake types but on DRA we already have vehicles with K-block composite tread brakes (most wagons)...
Yep. The application and release timing ranges are the same for R and P: 3-5 seconds and 15-20 seconds respectively. Like you mentioned the...
Hilfssteuerung should work, I use it quite extensively while driving freight trains with the BR143 on DRA. There is (was?) an (apparently core)...
Btw, the Bremse Lösen button does not work prototypically on BR143 at the moment. It should vent the brake cylinder and not increase back when the...
Gotcha. Well the BR155 has not had any work on it in quite some time (afaik) so it will not have a lot of the new features, unfortunately. It’s...
From my memory, according to what the BR143 driver I was in contact with said, the Zugkraft slider only affects the brakeforce of the E-brake when...
Is this on Riesa - Dresden or another route?
You're either radiating away the heat generated on the locomotives or in each axle. The difference is that in the former scenario you only have a...
Like TrainSim-Matt mentioned in the streams, since the trains are so long you have to really plan ahead what you want to achieve. 1. Don't crest...
This is why attention to detail is important. You're taking control of a very short train with 2 AC-locomotives. In notch 8 you have a maximum...
This new information actually makes a lot of sense to me. I asked a Swedish freight train driver that I know whether G/G is ever used in Sweden....
Thank you for the feedback! The timetable was handed to me but it's definitely very possible that I mixed up a title, or perhaps they are all the...
Hey, I just made the thread that was promised before, albeit in a slightly compromised way. I haven't really been keeping up with this thread so I...
As you by now know, with the release of the Meißen branch TrainSim-Matt did a major overhaul of the timetable for the route. That overhaul...
If you compare the sound of the Class 66 and the SD70ACe you can hear that the prime mover sounds very similar, it just has a different pitch and...
Textures are only sometimes realistic. Other times they are composites of similar types of wagons or the artist have used fictional/inferred...
I'll check when I get home if I have it written down but based on some pictures I found it seems to have a KE-GP-A brake (automatic load sensing)...
Like Matt mentioned in the stream I was going to make a thread/document that detailed each service and what train formation is used. Unfortunately...
Nice info! Btw, (and maybe you meant this), but the BR143 in DRA has Hohe/Niedrige Abbremsung implemented in R-brake ;)
Has anyone tested the BR143 after the update? It should be possible to get traction now when the brake cylinder pressure is ≤ 1.2 bar.
Thank you! I'm currently making a document with all the freight services on the route described (i.e. at time xx:xx there is an intermodal train...
Yeah, I've noticed that too. Not sure if there is a good fix for it that doesn't degrade performance though (I think that is the reason for the 0...
Typo! Thanks for catching it.
The freight consists included on the route are found in my signature (Spreadsheet). Hopefully there are no mistakes, since I created them, but...
That's a good point. I was thinking that safety wise you would have a longer distance to stop, but you may of course still get a penalty brake...
