    donner pass cab forwards; need help fixing rear engine wheel slippage in open rails

    Does anyone have any thoughts on how I can modify the rear engine file of the cab forwards, to prevent wheel slippage in OpenRails? I tried commenting out "antislip()", as it was commented out in the forward engine file, and replacing the friction statement with that of the forward engine, but no luck with that. Any other ideas?

        The problem with the 3DTS cab forwards is that they are set up for MSTS style physics which just does not work in Open Rails. I have modified all of mine so they now run normally. Attached is one set of eng files. Just change yours to match.

          Thanks for the replies everyone. The engine file template works like a charm.
