Hi Jirka, the source code of branch OR_NewYear_MG_NoWD in my remote repository is up to date.

[Icik]

The available revision is 8969 and it probably does not correspond to the latest code. If I compile this code to a 32-bit version, it does not load models with large textures. Your finished NewYear 85 has no problem with that. Loads everything without errors. So you have to have the old version there. Please check it out.

[Csantucci]

Icik,
where do you see that 8969?
I don't know what occurs to you. The last commit that I have, locally and remotely, is the one updating the readme file for rev. 85, so for me local and remote repositories are aligned.
I have locally rebuilt rev. 85; you can download it from here: http://www.interazio...ear_MG_Icik.zip . Check if it works to you.

[Icik]

Carlo, I'm sorry. It was my fault. When compiling, I forced the target x86 platform. Must be Any CPU. It's going as it should now. Thank you for your help.

Versions after 82 have display problems when selecting ERTMS signaling on AV trains, due to the new function introduced for realistic ETCS

is there a way to download a version older than 83?

In next release of OR NewYear MG, when the cabview uses the Digital() Control for the ETCS circular speedometer, no other parts of the newer ETCS functions will be displayed, so that older cabs like yours should work correctly.

Explain better, will a new realistic ETCS control be introduced in the next release?
The current control DIGITAL SPEEDOMETER will be independent of the new one?

[Csantucci]

The new realistic ETCS control is already available, as described in this thread http://www.elvastowe...f-the-etcs-dmi/, but it requires a script that calls the features available with that ETCS control.
DIGITAL_SPEEDOMETER will show only the ETCS speedometer, as it has always been.

Instructions and additional files to use the AWS TCS are available here http://www.elvastowe...post__p__255510 .


Users having not more than 4 GB RAM are suggested to run selecting general options checkbox for optional run at 32 bit on Win64.

When running on Win64, the player can select if he prefers running at 64 bit or 32 bit. In this second case RunActivity32.exe is run, and only a maximum of 4 GB of RAM can be accessed by OR. If the computer has only 4 GB RAM, selecting the option to run at 32 bit on Win64 is recommended.
Note for developers: Runactivity32.exe is not generated by building the pack, but manually doing a copy of Runactivity.exe, renaming it Runactivity32.exe, and using on the Developer Command Prompt command corflags with the modifier -32BITPREF+


NOTE: ReShade 4.3.0 or older or ReShade later than 4.5.2 must be used. ReShade 4.4.2 doesn't work here. See here http://www.elvastowe...mg-and-reshade/ for an installation guide of ReShade.

When running on Win64, if you are running OR at 64 bit (option not checked) you must point ReShade to OpenRails64.exe; if you are running OR at 32 bit (option checked) you must point ReShade to OpenRails.exe.

It is suggested to unpack the .zip using 7zip, if other unpackers lead to problems.

Instructions for web server:
What you can do now to test it: check the general options checkbox Enable WebServer, and start OR. If you type
http://127.0.0.1:2150/index.html
in your browser of the same PC where OR runs, you'll get a web page with the OR HUD.
You can display the same page also on other PCs, or devices like an Android Smartphone or TV box, or an IPad. In this case however, within the Command prompt you must type ipconfig; you will get some lines as reply, and one of them is
IPv4 Address. . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.114
So, in such case, on the browser of your external device (being in the same internal network of your PC) you will have to type
http://192.168.1.114:2150/index.html

Revision 85 can still be downloaded from here http://www.interazio...loads/index.php (click on OR_NewYear_MG_oldrecent.zip) .
