I'm having problems with my diesel locos. I've tried a few and the loco brake cylinder pressure never goes to zero. It will stop at 4 and the HUD will show a 7 percent application. If I bail the brakes it will go to zero. I'm using my raildriver when I have this problem. All is well using the keyboard. I've calibrated about 5 times now and still no luck.

Without having the device, looks like a RailDriver calibration problem.

Could be. I'll keep trying the calibration program until somethings works again. Not sure what caused the RD to get out of calibration like that.

Also, in engine brake controller code, there is nothing special, like in other controllers, where the positions must be combined with different controllers sometimes. It is just a pure 0 to 100% scale.

I don't know where to look for the code for the engine brake controller or what adjustments to make. I uninstalled the software for the rail driver, reinstalled the software, calibrated the rail driver and still got the same results.

Peter I seem to recall this happening before. Are you sure that it's not a a OR problem that could have taken place during one of the many updates that's been posted Lately.

Certainly I cannot be sure about it, because I don't have a RailDriver device, so I cannot make any tests about it. :) If you have such a feeling, you may try to find the specific version that made things wrong, using binary search.

Ok I found the issue. I had to look in the log file. Raildriver was looking for the ModernCalibration.RDM file in the Train Simulator directory. I dropped the file in there and the issue went away. Thanks for the replies and a have a great day. I'm happy now.
