HOW DO I GET ACCROSS THE CROSSOVER WHEN COMING FROM SHELBY!!! i EVEN TRIED TO CRAWL ACROSS AT 2MPH....AND IT STILL DIDNT WORK!!!

HOW DO I FIX THIS?

[David3]

I have the same problem, but I'm sorry I don't know how to fix it either.

[traisessive1]

but can you at least get across?

[David3]

No I can't and it really gets me frustrated.

[Anonymous]

Yeah I had the same problem and I dont think there is a way to fix it. You could DL Marias Pass 3.1. I believe they fixed it in that one. But Marias Pass 3.1 has a little different main line so the AI trains dont meet sometimes and they lock you in a spot for hours or until you quit. Well good luck

ENG file
Open WordPad and open the ENG file for editing. You'll see the Break value a few lines down on the opening screen:


SIMISA@@@@@@@@@@JINX0D0t______

Wagon ( SD40_BNSF1234
Comment ( ** Snippet from ENG file** )
Type ( Engine )
WagonShape ( SD40_BNSF1234.s )
Size ( 10ft 15ft+10in 65ft+1in )
Mass ( 176.4t )
WheelRadius ( 20in )
InertiaTensor ( Box (10ft 15ft+10in 65ft) )
Coupling (
Type ( Automatic )
Spring (
Stiffness ( 1e6N/m 5e6N/m )
Damping ( 1.2e6N/m 1.2e6N/m )
Break ( 1.6e7N 1.6e7N )
r0 ( 20cm 30cm )
)
Velocity ( 0.1m/s )
)

Edit both values so the line reads:

Break ( 5.1e7N 5.1e7N )

Save this file and repeat the process for any other locos that you've decided to change.

Sometimes you'll see that the loco's designer has made the change already.

By the way, realistic values for Break are usually set as:

Break ( 1.6e7N 1.6e7N )

or, for a loco such as an SD90MAC:

Break ( 2.4e7N 2.4e7N )

WAG file
The task for a carriage or freight wagon is similar to that above. Start WordPad and open the WAG file for the particular carriage or freight wagon. You'll see the Break value line just a few lines down from the top of the file:

)

Edit both values so the line reads:

Break ( 5.1e7N 5.1e7N )

Save this file and repeat the process for any other wagons that you've decided to change.

Also same thing goes for ones that ya download,also try the one that ya doen load do an Activity thru Marias Pass from shelby to Whitefish and back to Shely see if you ahve any errors,What I mean is aftere ya down load a Car,Locomotive ont change it just yet do like I said make a run thro on teh Pass,If it dose it then go and change them.
