Advent and Nicholas

In retrospect, I wish you all a nice 2nd Advent and a nice St. Nicholas Day.

Adaptation to the OR: First results

A lot has been done in the last few days regarding the adaptation of the .eng and .wag files of my repaints. The revisions are still in progress as there is a lot to update and add to the files.

The content to be revised includes, among other things, the information for the drive power, the tensile forces and the traction. Since this is possible in the OR, only the original data is used here, which significantly increases the degree of realistic representation in the OR.

A further improvement in the simulation of V-traction will, where necessary, be the replacement of the representation of an electrical with a hydraulic power transmission. Not yet feasible, but the representation of the changeover between slow gear and overdrive in a hydraulic power transmission is already in development.

A new addition is a steam train heater that can be switched on and off, if the original is available, which makes the Halycon steam train heater simulated as an .eng file superfluous.

As usual in the first place

On November 25th, 2015 I published my first package with color and lettering variants of the V 100 series of the Bundesbahn. On December 7th, 2015 and May 11th, 2018 further packages of the V 100 of the Bundesbahn followed. On December 21, 2015 a package of the V 100 of DBAG was published.

On May 1st, 2018 a package with V 100 followed by private railways, on July 16th, 2018 the package came to replace models of PT 6, on July 31st, 2018 the package came to replace the V 100 from GR and on November 22nd, 2018 came a package to complement the V 100 from GR.

In the order shown here, the .eng files of these packages are adapted to the OR.

What's next?

Then the .eng files of the other packages are adapted to the OR.

Until next time
