...that is interesting- even with some frame drop using the higher setting, the lowest frame rate you now get masks the stuttering. Is all of that...
...I’m sure you know what you’re talking about- too bad DTG didn’t consult with folks like you to proof some of the procedures in their docs...
...just curious- have you tried uncoupling from the cars then recoupling back up to them after running into this issue? I ran into this same issue...
...you guys are both welcome, thanks for posting about your success.
If you're in a Caltrain/UP or older CSX loco (not the AC4400), the MU-2A valve is located on the bottom left side of the engineer’s stand near the...
Welcome to the forums! What Train Sim products do you own at this point, and what platform are you running them on?
I definitely like this proposal- would really like to see this added someday. It could be a standalone route, or simply tied into the existing...
...no problem, glad this resolved your issue! I also see you’re new here... welcome to the Train Sim forums.
...thanks for the response, Sam. I do have a couple of follow-up questions for you (or any other manager-director folks these questions should be...
...I was really (really) looking forward to Sand Patch Grade in TSW 2- I’ve been waiting to get my hands on that 4400 for some time now (being a...
I have to say, I pretty much agree with everything you wrote. The lack of proper docs at the release of a brand new product- plenty of bugs in it...
...can you supply a pic of each side of the loco you’re running into this issue on? I found the following thread (link below) on a similar issue-...
In reality, the TSW 2020 docs already had some issues (some procedures not called out at all, other procedures called out but missing critical...
Yeah, this is definitely not a critical issue... just cosmetic really. With all of the other issues already going on related to TSW 2 right now,...
...on your point- I’m also not sure that the braking effort actually falls (or should) once it reaches its peak at 20mph or so. Based on the info...
...I found some other reliable info on the web that stated that dynamic brake effort *starts out* at min effort at 0mph and rises from there to...
...nice write-up on this issue, glad you filed something here on it. Even if this is an issue that just affects a single platform (let alone all...
I like your post on this topic, and I’m glad you’re raising this as an issue. If you’re right- and I’m sure you are because it sounds like you’ve...
...thanks for looking into this for us- appreciate the help! This should be an easy issue for the devs to recreate on their side... it seems to...
I’ve got a hunch about this: What if they don't render any of the containers unless you’re actually looking at them- possibly to save load on the...
...if you ever change anything in your DPU pair (on either engine), it might reset the Banking radio in the lead unit at the front of the train...
...lead unit checks: MU-2A valve set to Lead or Dead Cut-out valve set to Freight, auto-brake handle fully released Dynamic brake and Independent...
...glad you’re good to go- having functional DPU units in the rear will def help get your trains up those long grades! Otherwise they’re just dead...
...that’s a good question about the indep-brake, and whether or not the indep-brake in the DPU set mirrors the indep-brake in the lead at the...
...can you comment on what issues people are still running into related to DPU operation, provided they’re configuring their trains properly? I’ve...
...you could actually set the auto-brake to Cut-out in the lead DPU unit if you wanted to, but once the Banking radio is turned on in the lead...
- Make sure the rear set of locos is set up as a standard lead/trail pair (radio circuit breakers on, but both radios turned off) - Then set up...
...I’m so busy paying attention to the signals and keeping to the timetable, I definitely missed this sign. Thanks for the info!
...just curious: When you run this journey under TSW 2020, do you have the same issue with the other switcher? Or does it work correctly, and you...
This is still the only service affected by this bug as far as I know... this bug is related to the double-length ‘Special Train’ which only...
...some add’l pics of the unit trains, the DPU units are halfway back in the oil train. Glad you liked the pics! Oil train: 2 MU’d locos +...
I’ve been wondering about that as well... I just assumed it wasn’t an actual g-force meter- though I’m not sure how they would measure...
...thought you might like these- pics of my two unit trains in Hamilton Explorer. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
I really enjoyed having the freedom to build whatever I wanted to in Hamilton Explorer with available stock- I wish they had free roam scenarios...
I used the Hamilton Explorer free-roam scenario in Oakville to build a couple of unit trains there (as a proof of concept), using available...
...if previously working DPU units no longer function after restoring a saved game, try turning the Banking radio Off then back On in the the lead...
...this procedure looks totally correct to me- I’ve been posting pretty much the same instructions in many other threads in these forums over the...
Yep, I like this idea too... I’ve also noticed it can vary from 2 to 5+ min to get the pop-up to give up the train service- have no idea what’s up...
...just clarifying an important point here- The circuit breakers for the banking radios must be on in the lead unit up front and in the lead unit...
Ok... so it looks like you *can* set up a single loco in the back of the train as a fully functional helper unit... I just did this in my Hamilton...
I think everything looks good with your settings, but a couple of other things come to mind though: 1) I wonder if the brake lever movement in...
You might need to check with other folks here on whether or not the brake handle actually moves (is animated) when the loco is in banked mode... I...
...hey- glad you’re good to go, and thanks for the post! And now that you and others know how to do this, you can help other players get up to...
Bingo! I first ran into this exact same issue in Oakville Sub (with my ‘Hamilton Explorer’ saved game) in TSW 2020- and it happens every time I...
I just did some digging on the web, and found info that suggests that the GE ‘Locotrol’ device (the device that handles the banking between the...
