With OR NewYear MG rev. 102 the support has been added for a target speed selector lever, independent from the throttle lever, and whose position is "proportional" to the target speed; therefore when the lever is at one end the set speed is zero, and at the other end it is the max speed of the loco.
The feature is described in more detail here http://www.interazio...isecontrol.html . The link to a sample .cvf and .eng file is provided there.
The FS E652 143 loco has been equipped this way by Paolo, and can be downloaded at the bottom of my usual download page.
The download pack must be unpacked on top of the original FS E652 143 pack, that can be downloaded from here http://www.trainsimh...731&file_id=746 .
The simple leggimi(readme).pdf file is only in Italian. If someone wants to try the loco and has problems, I can help.

Hello, so I was thinking of contributing to the cruise control project. I am a totally new guy currently completing master's in Tempe (Arizona). Any advice on where do I begin?

Hi, that depends on what you are able to do:
1) are you able to code using C#?
2) are you able to generate cabviews?
3) do you have specific info about the CC implementation in some locomotives?
You don't need to respond "yes" ti all questions.

Hi Carlo
Etr500_Frecciarossa does not work in MANUAL.
The throttle does not move. CC-AUTO and Autopilot are OK.
Please look at it, probably I do something wrong.
Thank you for your help.

Hi,
by "Manual" you mean the OR manual mode (the one you reaach by pressing Ctrl-M) or the Cruise Control manual mode?
I also remind that you must use OR NewYear MG rev 102 or higher for the Frecciarossa.

Hi Carlo
I refer to Cruise Control manual mode and use OR NewYear MG rev 102.
Please note, the FS E652 143 equipped by Paolo works perfect.

At game start the CC is in manual state. Does the throttle not move already at game start? Have you tried both with mouse and with the keyboard commands?
I didn't get notices by other people about this problem.

Hi Carlo

At game start already throttle does not move with mouse and keyboard commands.

Have no notces about that problem by other persons or in other forums.

Seems to be only my problem.

Thank you for your continuous interest and help.

Ps: Downloaded several times the Etr500_Frecciarossa, but without any positive result.
