I recently downloaded the Mojave Subdivision as payware for TANE SP2. I ran an engine in the quick drive just fine - no problems, and in the Cab mode.
However, when I try to run the included sessions, something isn't right. I open the session and it downloads. Then I get initial instructions, and the session is defaulted to DCC cab control. I go to the quick drive menu and change this to cab control. Once in cab control, I am restricted to actually using the levers in the cab - which is not a problem as they respond to my keyboard or mouse - but when I release all the brakes, etc., and start to throttle up, the engine starts to spool up, but there is no movement. Very odd. There is movement if I go back to DCC.
This happens in the Walong Stall, the DPU Push, and the Mojave to Bakersfield sessions. I have not tried the ATSF 991 East yet, but I am sure the same thing will happen.
I thought maybe there was something I was missing, some lever I had forgotten. I can't figure out what is wrong, unless it didn't download properly.
I thought maybe it was the DCC vs. Cab thing when the session started, but I've never had a problem switching from DCC to Cab in any other routes. So, I started up the DPU Push in DCC, connected with the train I am helping, switched to the front engine, all still in DCC, and started moving out in DCC. Then I went to the quick drive menu, switched from DCC to Cab, and immediately the train squealed to a halt. The levers for Cab were showing no brakes and the throttle was at lever 3, so there was no reason the train should suddenly be braking.
Any suggestions? I have not reported it to N3V yet as I wanted to see what the forum might have run into. Is this a bug or am I just missing something in the cab?
