All the files are dated june 23. So they could release it even sooner.

New York to New Heaven with Radiomater vegetation, kuju skies and LGVmed people.

Work in progress (from RSSLO website)

That's right. I forget to mention it.

The RSSLO E412 looks nice. They mostly do very good modeling, let's hope engine control will not be *too bad* (like BR 187). Because E412 (aka Eco2000) is a between BR 101 and Traxx, the RSSLO E412 can have the same feeling as the BR 187.

RSSLO have the FS painting, which is for E412. More about E412 : http://railcolor.net/index.php?nav=1406595&lang=1

Below, this is the other painting (Rail Traction Company) for EU43. EU43 are E412 build for PKP. But PKP did not buy them. They were bought by RTC.More about RTC color scheme : http://railcolor.net/index.php?nav=1406600&lang=1

There is also those new wonderful paintings Lokomotion for EU43 since 2016 (repainters have some job !) :

Zitat von Berliner079

@Markus Schöbel, sieht ja toll aus, was möglich wäre.
Du hast ja sicherlich erfahrungen, wie DTG sich bei "verbesserungen" verhält, wenn man diese teilt?

Mal so in die Runde, bzgl DTG-Verhalten bei Änderrungen diese kleinen Patche hier ändern ja alle DTG/RSC Strecken
http://rail-sim.de/forum/wsif/…-trees-platforms-and-sky/

Warum sollte eine derartige Änderung nicht auch an dieser Strecke möglich sein?

Anscheinend scheint ja DTG für so etwas offener zu sein, als dieser andere Hersteller "Hochwertiger" TS-Addons, der auch 3 Buchstaben hat.

I have updated my DTG/RSC German route patch for 3D trees, platforms and sky patch with Wutachtalbahn support. It takes me less then 5 minutes to *fix it*... DTG use always the same files/structure.

Some pictures : Train Simulator Screen-Thread (ersten Beitrag beachten !)

My DTG/RSC German route patch for 3D trees, platforms and sky patch now support Wutachtalbahn. With Radiomaster 3D trees, this slow speed route looks much better.

PS : Picture from last test ride (more easy with AFB engine).

Nschlechte nachrichten! The tweaked RSSLO_Gravel_2Track.XSec works great with SemmeringBahn and Tauernbahn but not with Tirol Austria. It looks like the track is higher on the ground and so the gravel bed floats on the air. I don't know how to lower it by changing files (using the editor will take far much time, too much time). My knowledge about xsec and track high is far too low. If someone have an idea to slove this, he can PM me... The goal is to attach the procedural gravel lower or to lower all the tracks (and hope it still be fine for caternary).

Enjoy winter trains!

I would be very pleased to buy a FS class E.412. RSSLO did not do the best TS engines but I enjoy some of them. RSSLO is the only editor which release modern engines like Vectron, Traxx 3 and BR 285 or original ones like OBB 1822. And I really like those kind of locomotives.

So, if it's the E.412, I will buy it day one. I hope it will have the Rail Traction Company painting.

Soon, there will be no more RSSLO track *in the middle off the grass*!!! I have tweak some xsec and without any other work, SemmeringBahn and Tauernbahn already have the enlarged gravel track bed. I have just to some tests on Tirol Austria, the lofted item is perfect on flat track. It's possible to lay gravel track bed portion of upto 5 Km in one time. I think I will place it on all the tracks.

Exemple on Tirol Austria Under work :

SemmeringBahn and Tauernbahn which already use the xsec are really great looking.

True. I do the same most time for my favorites engines. I have a data base with speed of engine at a spot with the same batch of wagons. So I can check if one or an other have abnormal performances.

If you are aware of performances, you have noticed that TS is really not realistic. Not the sole fault of the game, but also wrong values set for wagons weight, friction force, and so on. With some wagons, your engine speed descrease with no break in an important gradient. In an other way, some wagon seems to have a very very low weight and have a really small slow down when climbing a mountain.

PS : I have tested longer startup and shutdown time for engine. It's not good. If the startup or shutdown is longer, there is a time without noise.

We speak about a single engine not a EMU or DMU.
Value in simulation .bin file in () real values :
vR BR 101 : 8850 HP (6400 kW => 8700 HP)
vR BR 450 : 7500 HP (5600 kW => 7500 HP)
DTG OBB 2016 : 2682 HP (2000 kW => 2700 HP)
DTG Class 68 : 3805 HP (2800 kW => 3800 HP)
JustTrain Class 67 : 2494 (1900 kW => 2500 HP)
vR BR232 : 3000 HP (2200 kW => 3000 HP)
...

BTW, RSSLO seems to always place value in kW and most of their engines looks underpowered. No need to Wonder why now... More the engine is powerful, less the missing power is noticeable.

I have checked the simulation.bin of the RSSLO BR 285 and search the web to have informations.
http://www.mainlinediesels.net/index.php?nav=1000929&lang=en
The engine power is 2200 kW (2990 HP) or 2400 kW (3260 HP)

<MaxPower d:type="sFloat32" d:alt_encoding="000000000070A740" d:precision="string">2200</MaxPower>
<MaxSpeed d:type="sFloat32" d:alt_encoding="0000000000805640" d:precision="string">90</MaxSpeed>
<StartupTime d:type="sFloat32" d:alt_encoding="0000000000000840" d:precision="string">3</StartupTime>
<ShutdownTime d:type="sFloat32" d:alt_encoding="000000000000E03F" d:precision="string">0.5</ShutdownTime>
<MaxPowerAtRail d:type="sFloat32" d:alt_encoding="0000000000E0A540" d:precision="string">2800</MaxPowerAtRail> (not sure 2800 is the original value)
<DieselUsedPerHourAtMaxPower d:type="sFloat32" d:alt_encoding="000000000070A740" d:precision="string">3000</DieselUsedPerHourAtMaxPower>
<DieselUsedPerHourAtIdle d:type="sFloat32" d:alt_encoding="0000000000004940" d:precision="string">50</DieselUsedPerHourAtIdle>

MaxPower => 3260 ! This the power of the engine in HP, not in kW. I have check a lot of vR and DTG engines, they all have the value in HP.
MaxSpeed => can be set to 95 mph to help the BR 285 reach 140 Km/h for passengers trains. I have kept 90 mph
StartupTime => about 20 to 25 sec. I still have to test it...
ShutdownTime => about 15 to 20 sec. Also untested.
MaxPowerAtRail => 2800 some diesel engines have the same value as MaxPower. DTG class 68 (very great engine) : MaxPowerAtRail = MaxPower/1,16. vR BR232 uses 3000 on both places.
DieselUsedPerHourAtMaxPower => 150 like DTG Class 68

I have set some of thoses values and the BR 285 is far better to drive. Now the BR286 can climb to Brennero at a decent speed with 8 to 12 loaded freight wagons.

Eine schöne Reise nach Tirol!

Vielen Dank für Ihre Erklärungen. Sie haben meine Fragen perfekt beantwortet.

Thank you all for your explanations. You have answered my questions perfectly. Now I know why light are much brighter in TS (due to technical limitations). And it's not the same in real life.

Thank you einMonster.

Hello and sorry for English, it's look too bad in german with Google translation...

Last week, I play train simulator in UK and I was wondering why the headlight were so dim. I send a mail to Amstrong Powerhouse, they tell me that train light are used to make the train visible but not to allow the driver to see in the dark. Well, I'm a little surprised.
I know TS is a game but vR engine (and most german engine) have more powerfull headlight. Some even have long range headlight. So I was wondering if it's different in UK and Germany, or if older train have low power headlight ? Well, if someone know about how headlight really work in real trains and can tell me, I would be very pleased.

Grüße und vielen Dank

Guter Abend,
Mein Projekt zur Aktualisierung der RSSLO-Straßen geht weiter. Es gibt jetzt schöne Leute auf den Bahnhofsplattformen an Stelle der Trolle. Ich habe auch ein Bett von Kies unter den Gleisen, wo es keine.

BR 178 von SyNcRoNiCzZ

It seems I have also heard Federspeicherbremse from a vR engine (BR 101, BR 145 or BR 146). Is it correct ?
