All commands needed to operate the Program can be accessed through the Menus
above. To help get started, here are some direct links to the most important:
Driving School
As an introduction, Express Train "D 2640"
is provided with a Driving School Mode. This provides a brief
introduction and interactive help during the journey, covering
all commonly encountered situations.
Start with Train Selection
One can also drive any of the other available Trains - these are
without the support of the Driving School Assistant.
Mark the desired Train by clicking in the List on the left and then
click on the "Start" button beneath to begin.
Difficulty Level adjustment
The Locomotive technology is such that in the beginning, one may
spend more time stopped than actually driving! For an easier introduction
some typical hurdles can be deactivated.
Graphic Settings
Before the start of the 3D Graphics, the Graphic Mode (Windowed/Fullscreen
etc.) may be selected in the Program Settings. Alterations to settings are possible
during the Simulation ("End 3D-Process" >
adjust Settings > "Resume Simulation").
Keyboard Assignments
The Keyboard Assignents can be freely adjusted. Joysticks and
the PI-Raildriver are also directly supported.
Documentation
You would like a more detailed explanation of the Railway
Technology and the capablities of the Simulator? The
pdf-Documentation should answer all your questions.
