Hello, I've been unable to make any locos move in Free Roam, whether in a sandbox or timetable mode. The 47, for example, has an 'alarm' light lit on the desk... Has anyone else had this situation?. If so, how do you fix it?. Thanks.
As many could use the freeroam mode on PC for some time now using GodMode, we've found there is rolling stock that just does not work with it. You may wanna try if I'm Stuck helps.
I’ve had the same problem in both TVL and NTP with various trains. The Class 66 and 101 both seemed to have brakes stuck on and wouldn’t move at all. Much the same with a 47. Then another 66 ran ok on TVL after a physics reset, but it’s brakes would not operate and I had warnings that automatic brakes needed to be set to cut-in. I found I was unable to change this setting and whatever I tried they always reverted to cut-out. Eventually I used god mode to spawn a class 66 in NTP and thankfully this one behaved itself.
There should be no difference, TSW FreeRoam is triggering the exact same UE command to spawn the loco as God Mode - probably you have just picked a different 66 than before?
Ah yes I think that’s right. I’ll have to check it out again tomorrow and note down which ones are working ok. It’s a disappointing start because those two routes are still my favourites.
It's all a little odd, the 47 I mentioned earlier was from the Northern Trans-Pennine route too. I have however managed to get it working when in 'On Foot' in Timetable Mode.
I've got a similar problem in free mode with the br185 on vorarlberg route at bludenz. At the beginning i was thinking that the problem was the voltage, but after some try i found that was an issue with the afb that prevent to release the brakes even you are on light loco. At the moment the only solution i have found is to set the afb at maximum and drive normally as every service. I'm on Ps5. I don't know if is a known bug but maybe i can help someone with this. (It's good to check with others german locos too if the afb have the same problem)
I don't have TSW4 yet, but are they spawning cold or running? Either way may have to go through start up procedures (ie.engine start plus anything else that needs doing)
The ones I tried were all spawning running and should have been ready to roll. I tried shutting down the 101 engines in TVL and on restarting it was still stuck. A physics reset didn’t help .
I was attempt to drive a ICE3 (BR 403) in free roam, but the train itself have no reaction and no sound of electrical equipment working, even though the pantograth has raised, and the circuit breaker has closed.
Make sure it’s on a route equipped with 15Kv 16.7Hz OHLE as in contrary of Scenario Planner, you’ll need the right voltage for the train. I tried with the 406 by selecting the “LGV 25Kv” and it doesn’t work as well, it wasn’t programmed.
