Same result (added another SD9043MAC by DW on the arse end of the train). I can get it moving, but the start is very jerky, even with DP. and the Wheel Slip percentage is ballistic! counting in 25% throttle over 8000%??

Ok, that eliminated one possible cause - difference in physics calculations. There's something in the ENG file that OR is not processing properly. Please attach the OR log file so we can take a look. Thanks for your patience.

No problem, I'll run it again and send the log over.

No need to re-run, it automatically saves the last run.

The last version I had when I pressed the horn bell key,Took a few seconds to react.Has this issue been resolved in the newest version in OR.

SLI's looping on the K5 is atrocious. I did it in ORTS and MSTS and it made me cringe at how long it lasted on the note after pressing spacebar. Try using a different K5LA with a better loop point.

Can anyone recommend one? Seems every loco I have does this.

Disreguard my comment, all horns seem to play right through the cue points, and then loop at the 1st two.

- signal static look still shows also parts that shouldn't be shown when the related checkbox isn't checked, e.g. signal CHL Einfahr-/Blocksignal_2L has under the MSTS RE a checkbox "Signalkopf Ausfahrvorsignal" that only IF checked shows a square signal section that anticipates the state of the following signal; signal CHL Guppenausfahrsignal has a checkbox "Tafel für Halteort bei Gruppenausfahrsignal" that IF checked shows a vertical rectangle indicating the point where the train has to stop;

After some investigation in to this today, I believe I have made a big improvement in which signal shape sub-objects are visible in OR. I am not, however, familiar with the signals used on the Bernina route (or indeed a good number of those I have installed) so I would like to enlist the help of you and others who do, to test out the change. I will provide a special version of RunActivity.exe containing only this fix if you're interested.

Hi James !

Yes, I would like to test your fix in the Bernina, the Wuppex-11 and the DB-Tracks MSTS-Protrain routes.

You can attach it's ZIP to an e-mail to: ottowipfel(at)btinternet.com

You can download the patched version here: http://james-ross.co.uk/temp/Open Ra...Objects v1.zip (since this forum doesn't allow large enough attachments).

To install: Download the 0.6.2 release from the website and extract into a new, empty folder. Download the above patch and extract it in to the same folder. This will overwrite "RunActivity.exe" and "Version.txt". Then run Open Rails as normal - i.e. double-click "OpenRails.exe".

Please note that this version does not contain any of the fixes we've made since the 0.6.2 release except for the signal sub-object fix.

Hi James,
both specific problem cases referring signal static look I mentioned have disappeared with your new version. Good job. Thank you for attention, for your effort and for the result!

Regards

Existing users of ORTS should rename these files below before installing the fix.

There should be a basic F5 option showing less than this one, like MSTS does.
