    Two different signal packs not working together?

    I am working on a route called the Vennbahn, an interesting detail of this route was that it had 2 types of signals. German arm signals and belgium modern signals. I have both installed but they don't seem to work together at all.. sadly I am no expert when it comes to signalling. Now I already made a map openRails and changed the SignalNumClearAhead ( 0 ) to 6, yet they stay red, the german signals atleast. I get the feeling both don't react to each other as the Belgian signals work as expected. Can anyone help me?

    Hi...

    In order to get two different signal sets to work together - you need to combine both sigcfg.dat and sigscr.dat - into single files. The sigcfg.dat has counts in it that needs to be updated with the combined totals. It's not hard - but you have to be accurate.

    Regards,

      Hello,

      I just checked and it seems the two have been combined, I also added more signals to see if the german ones only react to other germans but sadly no, everything stays red.

        The German signals require a configuration signal to work. I have now added the instructions (German) separately.

        If you start something like this, you could at least look at the documentation first.
