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...
I only skimmed the articles/threads you linked so forgive me if I'm misreading here but would you agree that what you linked shows a correlation...
How about this claim:
And now it is unbroken :D
It is not realistic and definitely not intended. But I have never been able to reproduce it on PC (I just tested it right now and had no issues...
The AFB Confirm keybind issue was caused by a new "Input Identifier" being added. What this means is that rather than having the "hardcoded"...
Train data is usually only input when the locomotive is first started up, the formation is changed or if there is a fault. In TSW there are mainly...
This is incorrect. Simugraph has nothing, directly, to do with the jumper cables. That is handled by special components that run independent of...
Having something like you describe in the game would be really great, definitely agree on that. Another thing (maybe more prioritized for me...
I noticed nobody has picked up on this line :D Extensive Fault Simulation if enabled. Any speculations what that could entail? ;)
I see. That might be tricky to implement since it sounds like it would require core changes (i.e. depends on DTG). I think picture-in-picture is...
Don't the different camera views work recently well for this purpose? Sometimes they're ordered in a poor way so that you have to cycle several...
Just to be clear, the ETCS variant of the BR101 does not actually have a functioning ETCS IRL. Also, as of yet, there are no German routes in TSW...
I mean 1988 to 1992 is quite huge as well. There was a certain wall that fell in that time period :D
What exactly is DTG doing here, since it's a TSG product?
It is located either on the left back-wall (MFA variant) or inside the screen (ETCS/MFD variant). The developers of this are not confused about...
That's probably quite optimistic :D I'm definitely not the best widget designer, that's not my expertise by any means, but I have some experience...
Affirmative :) The panel is basically identical to the one inside the IC cab car (not sure about the Metropolitan cab car though). The BR101 is...
Bingo :D Take a look at the rear wall of cab "1" in the BR101. That's the ZDE (train data input) panel for the MFA variant. The MFD variant has...
No idea. It's an issue with the coaches, not the loco. I'll inform DTG that there is an issue, but I would still recommend making a ticket since...
Because you were (a) In monitoring mode (basically the 70/85 cycling flash) (b) already in motion First one is semi-realistic, second is fully...
Separate names with a comma.
