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...
I hear you, and I'm undecided on what the best design is here, but remember that you can get PZB or LZB interventions due to the analog gauge...
LZB Übertragungsausfall (LZB transmission failure) can happen when driving in the timetable if the fault simulation is enabled (the probability is...
That is due to wheel slip. Unfortunately there is a mismatch between the MFD variant and the MFA variant. On the MFA variant the HUD speedometer...
The idea that we will only upgrade already existing locomotives for Expert DLC's is definitely not something that came from us. We will absolutely...
Thank you for the crash report. We were able to narrow down the cause to a missing revision of the BR 101 Expert DLC (it seems to be running an...
I'll touch on the timetable part since that is what I was responsible for on the gameplay pack (Fabian - aka Foob - did the scenarios): - the...
There are four light loco BR 101 services, one of which requires a startup at Fulda (it is a two part service where the first part has you drive...
OpenMinded noir I'm not sure if what you described is the actual problem or a misunderstanding, because I don't recognize all of the supposed...
You are correct that the plan is to redo the Frankfurt-Fulda Expert timetable rather than fix each issue on the old Expert timetable. I have...
There are more short services than long ones (as I wrote above), but by your "99%" I thought you were confusing FTF with Frankfurt S-bahn which...
Are you confusing Frankfurt-Fulda with S-bahn Frankfurt? It's not really correct, depending on your definition (and objectively incorrect if we...
TSW7 will introduce three never before featured regions: - Iceland - Bhutan - Suriname You heard it hear first! (Don't share this with anyone or...
It's on the list of known issues and I'm working on it, but don't expect a patch until after TSW6 releases :)
Fair enough! I could have been more clear. :) Sometimes I feel like I would need to clone myself to be able to realize all my plans :D Maybe some...
I'm scratching my head at your reaction to this poll. The poll is about Expert timetables, which so far means timetables that are duplicated (or...
I'm interested to hear everyone's opinions on what German routes they think are best in terms of driving freight trains. :) I will admit that I'm...
Having a simplified EBuLa that grabs destination names and timings like the PIS does is possible, but you would still need a map (the data...
The fault simulation is enabled in two ways: 1. automatically when you take a seat or spawn in a BR 101 or Bpmmbdzf Expert with Expert Mode...
I see. It is likely that consoles haven't received the hotfix yet, and only PC has. Hopefully the fix will be out by the time the Kassel-Würzburg...
CNL-AI is the City Night Line AI-layer. It requires Hamburg-Lübeck and Linke Rheinstrecke. The LFR coaches I picked because they looked the most...
Not quite sure what's going on for you because what you described is not intended (and I'm not able to reproduce that either). Having to press a...
Thanks! Seems like it was patched quicker than I thought. Not too happy about that Bpmmbdzf thumbnail though... :D
That's interesting. Any chance you could take a screenshot of the train selection screen in the Mannheim-Kaiserslautern Expert timetable?
I can't speak to the E94, but regarding the BR101 Expert missing Raildriver support that is still something I plan to implement, but it's been...
95. Shutdown feature can permanently lock the cab or machine room doors if it is initiated when doors are open. Status: Work in progress....
I kept my word, but perhaps not in the way you anticipated? ;) I am hopeful that you will agree that I made the right decision when we are ready...
I answered your cold start question here: Br101 Expert: Cold Start Considerations. | Dovetail Games Forums I will look into the cooling fan...
