Railworks America

I have a question about the controller that I have is RailDriver on my desktop. I used this for another program of Open Rails to run the trains through Microsoft Train Simulator. Most of the day I have trying to get RailDriver to work with the program of Train Simulator 2016 but had no luck with this. No problem to run the program of Open Rails with this controller, RailDriver. I am not sure what else to look for the problem to fix this. I wonder if I have to uninstall this first because the program already programmed to Open Rails to run with RailDriver. Let me know about this.

Thank you,

John

Thank you for posting the links and I already tried this. Still no luck with this RailDriver for Train Simulator 2016. But still works with RailDriver for Open Rails. Try to figure out how come one is working and another is not working. Have sent few e-mails to technical support of PI Engineering and they said that it should work for both programs not just one. Anyway will contact them more on Monday to see what else trying to fix the problem with RailDriver for Train Simualtor 2016. The problem is with RailDriver.dll and look below:

Message : Unable to load DLL 'RailDriver.dll': The specified module could not be found. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007007E)

That is what I got the message after installing MW 3.1 RailWorks Installer. I am not sure if this is install properly into C:/ drive and my program of Railworks Train Simulator is in H:/. Or doesn't matter where the installer of MW3.1 goes to? Before I forget that my operating system is Microsoft Windows 10 64X Home Premium.

I am no computer geek with this part but very frustrated trying to get my RailDriver working properly for Train Simulator 2016.

If you know how to get this working and let me know here with your message or private message to me.

Found the problem and now it's fixed but not quite yet because on the console of Raildriver where all blue buttons in two rows across the console are working but not the levers above. Can't get the train running with the levers. I did calibrated each lever as follow by the instructions but still the same. Not sure what is the problem?

Thought you might want to know if this is solved or not. Yes it is solved yesterday by PI Engineering Technical Support through remote to my computer. Now be able to use RailDriver with any scenarios of this program, Train Simulator 2016.

Great news! I'm glad you could finally make Raildriver work with this program of Train Simulator 2016.

If your Steam installation is in any other drive except C:\ you must edit the default script Script_210_###.mw3 (### being the ID of the RailDriver controller) that MacroWorks creates in your MyScripts folder from;

Dim dllpaths As String() = {"C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\railworks\plugins\", "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\railworks\plugins\"} 'locations of the RailDriver.dll
MW3.AddDLLpaths(dllpaths)

to whatever drive is holding the Steam folder. Use an editor with a find feature (Ctrl+f) to locate every instance of Program Files. There are four of them. The two referencing the location of Steam and two more for the location of MacroWorks

"C:\Program Files\PI Engineering\MacroWorks 3\Devices\RailDriver\ModernCalibration.rdm"
Oddly the last two don't contain Program Files (x86) for a 64 bit OS.

Don't forget to backup and edit the template files in the PI Engineering\MacroWorks 3.1\Devices\RailDriver folder just in case you load one and you end up with it not locating RailDriver.dll

NOTE: I'm pretty sure it's recommended in the install instruction to install MacroWorks to drive C:\
