Dynamic brakes are either regenerative or rheostatic (or both). The RhB GE 4/4 ii has thyristor drive so the traction motors are DC and as such...
I just got the Arosa line but I can't find a manual on the store page or in any of the game folders (although iirc manuals aren't usually...
I picked up Munich-Augsburg over the March sale and being a fan of high speed/long distance trains I thought I would mostly spend my time in the...
On most European trains I don't think is very common, although on some UK EMU/DMUs they have "enhanced emergency brakes" that do give (iirc) 30%...
I read that some of the BR425 had magnetic track brakes installed to improve braking performance during autumn (the conditions solicitr mentioned...
I may have worded my post in a confusing way, I do think the 423 have realistic brakes (at least according to what I've read) but I'm wondering...
I've noticed that the BR425 in Munich-Augsburg (via HRR) brakes much more strongly than the BR423 that comes with the route. For example: When...
As far as I know, you should bail off the independent brakes at the same time as you apply the train brake (i.e you never want the brake cylinder...
That's sort of the point actually. The Goods setting apply and release the brakes much slower than passenger timings because they are intended to...
I've been running the Railtour time table services on the Southeastern High Speed route and I think I have encountered a few bugs. 1. The...
That's a bug. A yellow light would indicate the next signal is red and this requires 1000 Hz magnet activation. In the video the 85 light does not...
Do you have any knowledge about how these unit oil trains would run? By that I mean start point/end point or crew change point on the route and...
Oh, right. Shelby to Havre, not Shelby to Whitefish. I noticed a scenario pack was made for this route, have you tried it? Very interesting! I...
Wow, I didn't know that route existed! I have the old Marias Pass, is it a completely new route? I was looking at the other Milepost routes...
Thanks, everyone, for the help! The patch fixed my issues. I have slightly off topic question: I'm almost done with the CMP scenarios and while...
Thanks Anthony. Maybe that's what I was doing wrong in my initial scenario, I used Lead+Trail+Trail-car...-DP1+DP2. Do you have any ideas to why...
Hmmmm. I encountered some weird issues in (a modified version of) Scenario 3 (going down the grade, can't remember the name off the top of my...
Yeah, I read that part and followed it (in terms of DPU setup) but the freight cars were the culprit ;)
Thanks for the suggestion! It worked. My JR freight cars were about a year old so perhaps there are updates to make them compatible with the...
I'm trying to build a scenario using the CP AC4400 from Searchlight simulations (steam version) but I can't get the DPUs to work correctly. My...
Hatt's off to the guys at Searchlight Simulations. The AC4400 is fantastic. Something really cool is that they have managed to implement curve...
I appreciate the straight forward information, Protagonist. Are there any plans or the possibility of future plans for something like a physics...
The distance meter (if implemented) would either measure the distance travelled by the locomotive from the point at when the button was pressed,...
It shouldn't be centered in neutral unless the acceleration is actually zero. Drag, rolling resistance, slight upward gradients etc will all slow...
I don't think the bolded part of the quote is quite correct. Available traction does not depend on momentum. It depends on mass (which is...
Thanks for the tip! It worked.
I think my drivers are a few months out of date (from april) so I'll try updating them and report back. Although, with how bugged everything is in...
Weird to make the same mistake twice. Maybe it was Microsoft Train Simulator (released in 2001) he/she meant :D
I have Nvidia
Ever since the new update with MSB being included I either get a CTD when clicking on the route or sometimes I'm able to get into the route menu...
I have to say, seeing the videos with cab sway turned on makes it look very "arcade-y". A person couldn't stand* inside the cab at line speed...
There is some thought that has to go into interpreting these numbers if you are DTG (or anyone trying to simulate the train) this is because the E...
I just tested the AFB on the BR185 and I confirm the same. I will say that the AFB commanded deceleration is quite realistic (the real one in...
They will (except NEC).
Weird, maybe it's bugged on PC but not on XBOX, or did you check on both? It is so weird, the physics was quite good (I think, real drivers can...
1. The HUD AWS/warning light seems reversed. When the AWS flower is lit up after starting the train or when passing the AWS magnet for a signal...
I would disagree that it was fixed. Yes, the weird throttle behavior was fixed (after something like 1 or 2 years) but the brakes are still...
I really don't think camera acceleration is a good gauge of physics realism... The TSW camera acceleration isn't even that realistic, just check...
Hey, no problem. Most of this stuff is super esoteric so it is quite expected to miss details etc. By the way, I found a video that I thought was...
Was this an old graph from DTG or is SimuGraph available or are you (DominusEdwardius) a developer? Also yes, the German locomotives are fixed in...
I follow everyone else in thanking you for the feedback! I have a question about the brake suggestions. I read somewhere a while ago from a 377...
That looks very interesting!
Wow those are interesting looking graphs. How did you get them, I you don't mind me asking? I retested the brakes on RSN. Test train was the...
I don't see why they would need to make it this complicated? The test route is not supposed to be realistic, just a way to test trains. In Test...
I've only briefly driven the freight train scenarios for the Muff mod. Are some of these actually following stopping services? "On East Coastway...
I can't find Q008 in the timetable. What time was it?
For me what is most entertaining when driving trains is when you are following another train and have to anticipate adverse signal aspects and...
We have something similar in TS2021 (Testtrak), so I'd love for it to be in TSW as well. Ultimately I'm still holding out hope for some kind of...
I'm planning on compiling a relatively short .pdf that can be uploaded/sent to DTG. My aim is to very explicitly describe how to change the...
Yeah, I think that's the route I used, I just wish I could fit a Sand Patch train there haha. I did some testing of the coal train under mediocre...
