TS-MFD Modulares Führerraumdisplay (MFD) inkl. EbuLa für Train Sim

vR loco's...

the vr BR110 / 480 wittenberger steuerwagen has the MFA lamps ouput in the controller list... PZB_LM_85 and so on,

But the vR BR120 and BR112.1 do not... i read on page 20.. that Maik Goltz said "Nein ist sie nicht. Sie basiert auf LM Steuerung mit Nodes und nicht als Controller."

So... is there a way to read these 'nodes' ??

I prefer to drive only vR loco's due to their amazing physics and operation, they are ideal to be driven with a home train driving desk where the MFA is on a seperate monitor.

p.s, on the BR112.1 and i think ohter loco's the 'TAV status' lamp for the door locked T light.. it has a 3 position output on the controls list... 2 = on, 1 = flashing, and 0 = off.
how would i set that up in the 'Tuer LM' entry on the lok Konfigurator?

ahh damn,

The vR BR110 and it's 'Bnrbdzf' wittenberger steuerwagen have the data available too, things like 'PZB_LM_85' 'Sifa_LM' etc... i just need to work a bit more translating the list of "Bezeichung's" to "Controller Names" so i assign the correct items.

However:
My current favourite loco, the vR BR112.1 uses the 'nodes' it seems, as does the BR120
there has to be a way to get at that data...

years ago i played a little with something called 'outgauge' which read the code of any game and found the bits that made gauge needles move and lights to come on... that was for then connecting real car instrument clusters to the game using an arduino... i did similar with my Omsi bus cab, but thankfully Omsi was written to allow easy access to all the games data with a simple .dll
So maybe outgauge might be able to sniff out the 'nodes' data stream.

I'm playing with the BR112.1's engine .bin files, trying to add bits of code from the BR110, changing the calls to ones i can read in the simulation .OUT file, in the hope i can find the triggers, i can get the 'new' control names to show in the Lok Konfigurator... but they dont do anything, So i don't think it will be that simple,

I think there will need to be a bit of code that listens to the 'nodes' written, but i'm way out of my depth here,

The most i managed to do was add an entry to the engine .bin files for the 'open doors' command, and then have a switch click sound assigned to it, so pressing the 'T' button is no longer silent, it clicks on and off then the doors open,

One last thought... I use the 'TS 2017 raildriver and joystick interface' to control the trains from my driving desk and siatek throttle quadrant... that program reads the 'engine script . lua / out' files by modifying them a little, reading and then injecting code into them,
i wonder if that's a way to get the data we want,

It would be really nice if virtual railroads would write a little program to get the data out of their loco's for us... i'd happily pay for the upgrade to each of their loco's i own (i also wish they would update their older loco's, again i'd pay happily for the updates.

Thankyou, so it looks like some vR loco's wont be able to display fully working MFA's then

i am using https://www.makeuseof.com/tag/…droid-apps-root-required/ to make my tablet hide the bottom navigation bar, it can also hide the top status bar (showing battery charge, wifi, time etc) but it shows a grey bar instead at the top... but using 'immersive mode' allows the EBula especially to look like it is a real unit rather than an app running on a teblet

I'm really sorry to do this... but i am trying to translate the 'lok konfigurator' into english so i can work out what things i am looking for when assigning the control data to it, can someone have a look at this very long list, and correct where i've got it wrong, and give me ideas to the ones i have no idea about please??.

i know that as i'm using only vR trains, a load of things in the konfigurator wont apply to my trains... i am seriousely thinking of getting the chris trains railjet as it looks to be the most advanced train yet for train simulator,

P.S, i will be making a donation as soon as i get paid next week as this program is transforming how i play train simulator, and i'm sorry for all the questions.

Brilliant, thank you so much, it makes sense to me now

Now to have some fun with this amazing thing.

Entschuldigung dass ich nochmals nachfragen muss. Aber kann es sein dass in keinem der vorhandenen ICEs der LZB Balken im MFA angezeigt wird? Gibt es hier für eine Lösung oder funktioniert das allgemein nicht? Vielen Dank schon mal.

Schönen Gruß Nicolas

Sofern ich den Kram auch mal mit ner neuen lok Konfig hinbekomme mach ich en Tutorial xD

Aktuell bin ich wohl zu blöd so ne Lok Konfi zu machen.

@Sillo - Auf Eurer Webseite fehlt das "Fahrplan" Tutorial. Ich wollte mal einen erstellen, aber die Uhrzeiten im EbuLa ändern sich dann immer - echt blöd. Wenn ich das System dann mal richtig verstanden habe, läuft es bestimmt auch...

BTW @'Sillo' - geniale Umsetzung - dickes Lob und ein Mega Dank!!!

Ich meine die beiden ICE3 und den ICE-T die verfügbar sind. Das MFA funktioniert soweit bei beiden. PZB, AFB, Sifa etc. wird alles angezeigt. Nur der LZB Distanzbalken wird nicht korrekt angezeigt wenn man in der LZB fährt.

Gruß Nicolas

Habs per PN geschickt.

Gerade mal getestet. Leider ist alles noch so wie vorher. Es funktioniert eigentlich alles bis auf den LZB-Balken der die Distanz anzeigt.

Also die Loco Config hab ich in den Ordner wo die anderen Loco Config sind und der Lok zugewiesen. Stimmt das so? Habe es mit dem ICE-T und dem ICE3 versucht. Leider keine Änderung.

• Genauso hab ichs gemacht. Leider noch keine LZB Anzeige. Alles andere funkt.
