    Cab width changed between X-versions

    In X-1565 the cabwidth of the SLI locos includes all the detail, as per the first screenshot.

    However, in X-1576, the same cab (and every other I've tested) is now "zoomed" and the sides are cut off - as seen in the second screenshot.

    Video settings in both instances are identical and changing them in the Options menu makes no difference.

    You may have "cab shake" (or whatever its called) enabled, OR is experimenting (I think) with a small amount of cab roll to go with this effect and have therefore zoomed in slightly to the cabview so when the cab rolls the edges do not appear.Lindsay

      No, Lindsay. It's not that (Ctrl+V) as I have it turned off.

      I have made absolutely no changes between one X and the other.

      I should also mention that the width is normal in all Xs prior to X-1576 and also in the current release version.

        If you turn off super elevation, the cab resolution will be normal. We are experimenting cab rolling under super elevation, train tilting and shaking.

        In 1578, we figured a better way to handle this and the cab resolution is now back to normal.

          Thank you, JJ.
          I never thought of that!
