  • Citaro Bader I saw your video. One thing - I do not know german, so I pass the sound. But I saw you have answered to the comment under the video. Correction - LVZ is not LS90. LVZ is LS IV. LS90 come later.

    Also, there´s no need to switch on the 3-phase converted, while on DC 3kV. That converter is there only to convert 1-phase current to 3-phase current for oil pumps for transformator cooling system. Which is of course not used while on 3kV.

    Thanks for the correction. I take it as a advise for the next Video. *perfekt*

    I know. I mentioned that later in the video (minute 40). The converter wasn't active, for example, even in the quick start mode of the 372. Unfortunately, I can't remember why I inserted it in the 230. ^^

  • I actually have one more feature request, not sure how difficult it is to implement this.

    Currently, the default state of catenary system and train safety system depends on the type of loco. But if I create a scenario in CZ with the 230/180, or in DE with the 372, I might want to pre-select the catenary and safety system appropriate for the country.

    This could be done by adding parameters to the vehicle number, e.g. "3kV" or "15kV" or "LVZ" or "PZB".

    And, I haven't found anything in the manual about this, is it possible to change the brake mode (R/P/G) in-game?

    The new sound is great, but unfortunately the engine sound outside only gets quieter when the distance is far away. For example, if you have a train with 6 cars, at the last car it sounds like you are right next to the locomotive.

    New sounds were created by Dominik and I believe his sound curve for volume is set on ListenerDistanceSquared or something like that. I ask him what is needed to change. We'll see...

    R/P/G change is done automatically according to the train lenght. There's no such thing like setting it directly. DAKO BS4 does not have it (not in model and neither in reality).

    That pre-selecting you mean only for AI? I plan to make an update, so this could be implemented. I have no idea if this can be implemented for player controlled loco, never created any scenario. Tell me, is it possible to change the name for loco when creating scenario??
