I'll slowly be adding patches to this mod that affect both NYT and BPE. Listed below are the current fixes in the mod.

NYT AMTK Metroliner Cab Car:

  • Replaced Type E coupler with a Type H
  • Changed brake select to have correct notches (Trail - Test - Freight - Passenger)
  • Added "BRIGHT" and "DIM" text around the headlight switch
  • Flipped bright and dim settings on the headlight switch
  • Changed the color of both the Sander and Alerter buttons
  • Changed name from "Amfleet Cab Car" to "Metroliner Cab Car"
  • Enabled loco select switch
  • Remade auto brake handle notches to have detents at minimum reduction and supression
  • Adjusted auto brake handle speed

(DLC as noted) AMTK ACS-64:

  • (NYT & BPE) Adjusted throttle lever speed
  • (NYT & BPE) Fixed rear cab throttle lever speed having a faster speed and no analog functionality
  • (NYT & BPE) Changed horn notches, now having 5 notches rather than 3 (High - Low - Off - Low - High)

BPE AMTK Acela Express:

  • Adjusted throttle lever speed
  • Adjusted cruise control lever speed
  • Adjusted auto brake handle speed

NYT NJT ALP-46:

  • Adjusted throttle lever speed

NYT NJT MultiLevel Cab Car:

  • Adjusted throttle lever speed
  • Added "Idle" detent on throttle lever

NYT Route:

  • Disabled Dynamic Adhesion, this should fix wheelslip on trains

Requirements

Installation Instructions

Additional Comments

Currently this is a very small mod, I plan to use this as a platform to fix small issues I have with the equipment on NYT and BPE. So more patches are bound to come sooner than later! If you encounter any issues please notify me asap!

Warning, any other mods that change the rail vehicle manager of any rolling stock listed will cause issue with this mod.

TSW4 users, this mod works now! I have noticed some features seem to be missing, noteably the Metroliner cab car text still remaining "Amfleet Cab Car". Also, the mod name still has "TSW3" in the name, but this will be changed next update.

Could you make the ALP 46 throttle and NJT cab car throttle faster? they seem slow

I can look into it. I've never done a mod that changes those values before.

Nice. What fixes are you planning for BPE?

Currently none, at the moment I've only looked into the Metroliner Cab Car which I feel has turned out nicely. I'll be doing a deep dive into the ACS-64 and Acela Express soon enough though. I did have the idea of maybe switching the default position of the Brake Select to "trail" rather than "test".

Does the main pack contain the lever speed changes as well?

Avatar of KitKat
KitKat 26 Feb 2023

It doesn't. I assumed that some people might not want to increase the lever speed so splitting the paks gives people the option.

Great mod! Noticed that with this installed, the max speed on the HUD for the metroliner cab car only goes upto 100mph now, and if speeds are higher they aren't visible on the dial. Was this change intentional?

I fixed that bug a few updates ago. Please double-check that you have the most recent version of the mod. I just checked on the latest version and the HUD shows up to 175.

The mod causes an immediate game crash after today's update.

I had a feeling it was going to break this mod. I'll be looking into it but don't expect a fix to this mod for at least a few.

nice! is it possible that you could remove the metroliner cab textures, as it interferes with the upcoming texture mod by nexo, yuri, and i.

Avatar of KitKat
KitKat 10 Apr 2023

The decals texture is required as it contains the new text for the headlight switch. The cab texture is something I'm keeping as I prefer the slightly more correct colors on the sander and alerter switches. I'll look into making it optional but for now, if you must change those textures out I recommend changing your mod name to be ordered above mine in the file browser (i.e. !!). This will allow for your texture to load even with this mod being installed.

I noticed that the NJT Multilevel and Cabcars passenger lights only turn on at night, and durring the day underground, it sucks to not be able to turn them on, is there a way where they can just be kept on regardless of the TOD?

I've now loaded up every scenario on NYT and I can't seem to replicate this behavior. Do you have any other mods installed or ini tweaks and could you give me more information, such as which scenario is causing this? Do note that this mod only works on the Steam version of TSW3, if you are playing on another platform other than Steam that might be the issue.

Hello, I have no idea if you have looked into this yet, but do you have plans on fixing the passenger lighting (HEP) on both the NJT multilevel cars and the Amtrak passenger cars?

I'm unaware of any issues with them. What do you mean?

Can you make it so that when the headlights are set to bright the metroliner cab car ditch lights come on solid? Not sure why they dont to begin with

It has been broken since TSW 2020. I can look into a possible fix but I'm not sure it's possible with our current editor.

I love the mod, enjoyed it on TSW3. I hope to see a update soon as all your mods listed makes all Locos not playable in timetables on TSW4.

Currently, modding support is broken in TSW4 and there is no official fix or update I can apply to make this work. Once TSW4 has been fixed to allow mods to work I will apply any fixes needed to bring this forward.

Would it be possible to carry this into TSW4?

Currently, no. Modding support in TSW4 was broken by DTG, they'll need to fix the game before any of my mods can be updated.
