Oh as I see, I have already 5.0.1.004 but only in the menu. The game self says it is 5.0.1.003

O.o ZDSimulator did not say that there is an new Version O.o As i installed the Version from the "eu" Site. I got the message that there is an newer Version. But did not know where. Until i found "zdsimulator.com.ua". I installed this version.. So there was no warning Message that i use an Old version. And now i use an older Version without knowing it On the "zdsimulator.com.ua" Site there i could also read nothing about an "newer" Version.... I think there there are also some Problems with the Updater Whats new in this 004? And whats coming in the ne Version? *nervous*

Yes i saw some videos about russian Trains :-) Some wagons have Boilers in it O.o You mean the wagons have its own Generators like in the old GDR Trains? Because the Batteries will be empty and must be recharged. Hmm, but it would also be nice to have it in the Simulation. :-) Special for Winter Driving where you MUST have an Heating.

Actualy i use the latest Version from the "zdsimulator.com.ua" Site (5.0.1.003) But what is the future? What is planned? And when it will be released?

ZDSimulator is an very nice and Realistic Simulation. But i think there should also be an Feature Request Thread :-) 1. It would be nice if i have more weather options. (see pic 1) If i use the Winter Version, the Rain will be falling snow ;-) 2. Advanced Mode At this time there is only an beginner mode and an professional Mode. But there should be also an advanced Mode. So you have the same things to do like in the professional mode (manual start up an so on) But you have the help like in the beginner mode. 3. Train Heating line/train power supply line. (In german its called Zugsammelschiene) I saw that the CHS-8 (pic 2) has the Instruments for this but we can not use it :-/ So it would be nice if we can use it In the professional (and my advanced mode) you will loose points if not activated like with the Main Brake line. Because the heating/cooling/toilets and so on of the wagons does not work anymore after some Minutes and my Passengers sit in the dark because the Main batterys of the wagon are empty^^ So it would be more realistic if the Train Heating line/train power supply line is also be simulated, special if i drive passenger trains. 4. multiple units I saw this video So it would be nice if the Simualtion could also use Multiple Units. Like 3 CHS-8 coupled or an Helper at the End/middle/middle and end. For very heavy Trains. 5. Realistic external train Lighting. Switches for Red Light and Normal Light. :-)

So what are the functions and so on of the Control and Warning Lights in the 2ES5K (A)? 1=? 2=? 4=? 5=? 6=? 7=? 8= Main Switch turned off? 9=? 10=? 11=? 12=? 13=? 14=? 15=? 16=? The same for the CHS8( 1=? 2=? 4=? 5=? 6=? 7=? 8= ? 9=? 10=? 11=saftey door open? 12=? 13=? 14=? 15=block 850(overcurrent shutdown active)? 16=?

I think in this forum should be an real section for english speaking users. Not only this little part here. There should be an place for english bug reports, wishes and ideas in english, and so on. And the Forum Software should be also available in English. Because i know it was hard to register here. And Google Translate does only help a little bit. I think that these problems (special the not english speaking Forum Software) scares the customers and users to register and buy. As i said here http://forum.zdsimulator.com.ua/index.php?showtopic=1798. The international Site is not the latest.... There i get only the latest(old) Version 5.0.0.004, on the official site here i get the real latest version 5.0.1.004. The Forums (http://www.trainsim.com/vbts/forumdisplay.php?120-ZDSimulator) which i find on "http://zdsimulator.eu/"... Is more boring than this here. There i will never get an answer on my question Because it is still unanswered... So there should ONLY be ONE forum for all customers and so on. And ONE Main Site where to get the latest version of the simulation. Maybe i can help, as i think my english is good. And maybe i can also make an german translation at the same time. I already made some translations from english to german, looks nice. But the ingame part i could not translate, with the *.lng file Nobody would say "The High Voltage" in english. And in german nobody would say "Die Hochspannung"... "high voltage area" sounds better in english and not "The High Voltage". And in German "Hochspannungsbereich" or so. :-) But there i think i need an lot of help from the developers and administrators here. Because i need more access to the language than i get from the "*.lng" file. But i want to help :-)

So i tried to drive at Night (12 o'clock at night) But if i Start my Drivers Cabin looks like at the Day. :-/ See dark0.jpg. Than i was "going" to the Virtual engine room. Looked also Like at the Day Version --> dark1.jpg. Than i tried to switch all Systems on with the Torch (Yes i know there is an engine room Light^^). But in the darkness of the engine room, the cab is also be dark. And the like comes from the torch. --> dark2.png So it would be nice if the lighting from the Cab is more realistic in the Night. So that i have only my torch if i Start at night (like at the dark2.png) and see nothing at the cab (except where my torch is). Than i must go trough an dark engine room, switch the main battery on, enable the engine room lights and the cab lights so that i d not need the torch light anymore. I also ask me for what i need the cab nice looking cab lighting, if even can see all, without using the cab lighting^^

Yes, so the restriction in the Simulation can be removed. And if you drive faster than allowed you will loose points in the Simulation and may damage the locomotive and so on.

Oh, thought thats an Bug. But i think this restriction of overspeed is not realistic and should be removed. So if you drive faster than 110 you should loose points, maybe damaging some parts of the Locomotive or derailing and so on. My old Car had its vmax at 171km/h while driving a hill down on the motorway i was 195 km/h. So it is possible to drive faster but not recommendable.

Everytime i want to go faster than 110km/h this Train accelerates and than stops accelerating. And there is also a little graphical problem on the speedometer :-/

Yes i know, but what does the different colours mean?

In some locos like the CHS 8 there are circuit layouts. But some of the wires and Elements are coloured. What does the colours mean? Red Marked Elements. Red marked wires. Blue wires (i think this means there is electrical Power on it?). Green Wires. And Red blinking wires on Blue Wires, so one Cable has two colours)

Little Updates :-)German.txt

I´m German. But writing in English is not very hard for me. Maybe you can make an Spanish Translation :-) Just, make Copy of the Language File which you understand and Translate it to spanish Redesigned? How? Will it get some failure simulation and better Start UP Procedures like the other locos?

I tried it again in the Beginner Mode. It still shows no speed :-/

As you can see, i am driving with about 81 km/h. So i think there is an Bug, because the km/h needle is not moved.

Yes it is :-) As i remember you get a new Loco too :-)

How do i use the KLUB Device in Proffessional Mode? I know how to start up the Train, but i dont know how i set up the KLUB device. It shows me wrong Speeds. Maybe because the Route and so on is not set correctly.

Yes i know. If i do something the Main Switch turns off. But how to use the rest? The switches and what does the Lights mean?

Thanks. :-) Ah, its an Diagnostic Interface, thats why my Locomotive shuts down if i do something on this device And how i must use it? What does which switch do? And the Wheel on the Left, which Function has it? What is shown on which indicator? I think there should be an Manual for this Device :-)

For what is that device? And how is it used Correctly?

The Strips Decoder Looks Buggy --> Strips.png These "Symbols" Does not Look Like Charakters --> chars1.png, chars.png Ingame it looks like the Same Problem --> Ingame.png

Hi, i made an Translation from the English Language File to German. This is the first Version. So i hope it will be fine with not to much Translation errors^^ For the First Time it is only the *.lng File, maybe Manual and so on comes later. --> Would also be nice if i can upload the Language Files directly without renaming it from *.lng to *.txt German.txt

Just Bought this Game, it is Very Nice :-) But the Download Version on zdsimulator.eu is older than it is on zdsimulator.com.ua On zdsimulator.eu i get the Version 5.0.0.004 and the Game says that there is an Update. If i click on it go to zdsimulator.eu and find the old Version again. Only on zdsimulator.com.ua i get the latest Version 5.0.1.004. Would be Nice if these 2 sites have the same latest Version.
