just to endorse the comments above, the keyboard [;] works but not the ['] so brakes can be applied but cannot be released via the keyboard on my set-up. Plus there is something funny going on with mouse operations via click spots as well. Not had time to fully explore but suspect it to be in line with that reported above.
As an aside, out of interest, what and where is this route that is being referenced in the above post?

I'm finally getting around to testing out the Pennsy pack today and it seems that the EL unit wants to crash when turning the headlights on to bright. And so far both the EL and CR will not let you adjust brake difficulty. Haven't tried out the PC unit yet since the game keeps crashing while turning on the EL headlight.

Otherwise great model, great paint and great sounds!

EDIT: The EL headlight thing was false. I was starting off in Woodridge on the Bergen Line and my laptop just didn't like it. Headlight causes no issues.

Martin, for me the only problem is the keyboard not corresponding with the HUD on the brakes. Other than that I have no issues.

The handle moving like that is because of the advanced brake script. You can only move the handle so far at a time before you have to let off for a second and then move again.

Sorry currently not able to create a video showing the behaviour.
I mostly use F3 HUD, there the trainbrake sticks to 23% and never changes the value if operated by keyboard. Air hiss is heard, but nothing happens. Also the display of the brake status like released, minimal reduction and so on change all the time.
F4 HUD works fine and let's operate the loco without issues.

Grabbing the brake handles with the mouse:
Independent brake handle never moves, if you grab trainbrake the independent brake is operated.

Besides from that, as mentioned, reverser and wipers produce no sound when operated. For the lightswitches and power handle not sure.

Cheers

FYI there's something wrong with the version that's currently on the site.

I tried to download the pack again to see if it was updated & the zip file I got was corrupted each time. I tried three times & from different machines so it's a problem with the file.

I went to T&D to download ver 1.1 and while it did download, I got a corrupted file error while extracting, tried it twice, attempted repair and no success. I sent an email with my findings to info@trainsimshop.com.

Tried downloading today, Version reads now 1.12 and file seems to be OK, at least I can open this one now. For a test I have to wait until I return home :-)

Yes! I can confirm that the 1.12 download is good & installs fine.

Thanks for fixing it folks!

Download and install was clean. Though we need to talk about the 'jerky" brake handles.

confrm, no issues so far anymore - only minor glitch is the train brake handle moves not like it should when you operate brake by keyboard like mentioned in previous post.
But seems not to have an impact on the functionality.
