gilbo2 Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 Hi Tried your suggesting today but two problems. 1. In RM the Ini file has no entry for elink? 2. Thought I would simply add the line, but I am not allowed to save the file? Any ideas? Ron. Take a look at the bottom of the first page of the thread below as there is a comprehensive explanation on how to overcome this; https://www.hornby.com/forum/railmasterini-file/?p=1 Let us know ow you get on.

Graskie Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 I didn't use powerpos this time. I just did it from the RM message prompt. Didn't appear to cause any problems (yet). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PJ_model_trains Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 It's good news guys. I will open the program shortly for it to download. What improvements can you see? PJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yelrow Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 hi, what improvements are there, on first look, hard to find. No doubt HM, will tell us. john Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
96RAF Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 Just auto-updated via RM - no problems at all. I notice all the locos still start up showing Reverse. Whilst ticking the box in setup to alter this it also swaps UK railway convention on the arrows so I leave it as is. John if you look in the Railmaster folder there is a text file called release notes listing what is included this time around.. Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
St1ngr4y Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 Just downloaded v1.57. Disappointingly, my problem with Traintech signals still exists, and I have informed HRMS via email. Ray Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RB51 Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 The update seems to be a minor fix of a few issues and a couple fo enhancements - which as yet I havn't spotted. Nothing major as far as I can see, but I'm not sure it was meant to be anything else. R- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walkingthedog Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 Think you're correct Roger. Quote from RM support: 'RailMaster 1.57 is just a maintenance release fixing a few things in the program and adding a handful of minor things. It will be made available for automatic download imminently.' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
St1ngr4y Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 @Roger @WTD "There will be an update 1.57 released in the next few days to hopefully deal the the signalling issued you had." This appeared in a reply on 5/11 from HRMS to an email I had sent to them. This is why I expressed my disappointment in this thread earlier.

This appeared in a reply on 5/11 from HRMS to an email I had sent to them. This is why I expressed my disappointment in this thread earlier. Ray Good morning Ray I understand your frustration. It does seem to make things worse having been told your situation would 'hopefully' be fixed. Hopefully! I am aware they are working to sort the signal sequence too, this is not fixed, but they didn't say it would be, they are still working on it. I think in fairness, they said RM 1.57 would be available hoping to have fixed the issues then found they are not as simple to sort as they had hoped. In the end they had to release it as they said they were going to. I have only just downloaded the update, all my trains remain in the Forward position. I have checked the signal and point set up boxes as these were to small to add items and see what you were adding. This is much better as you can see from the image here. /media/tinymce_upload/Signal_set_up_box.jpg PJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PJ_model_trains Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 My signals were coded 100, 102, 104 & 106, train going forward, signals backwards down the line. But I had an conflict in programming yesterday between 100 changing when I set 102 so reset 100 to 2238 The above therefore is based on 238, 102, 104 & 106 238 is the signal being programmed here. The above shows, when the first signal, 238, is Red (train just passed lets say small train no carriages for easiness) Therefore the previous signal 102 is Y, the one before that 104 is YY and the one before that is G Then we say if the first signal 238 is Y then 102 is YY, 104 is G, 106 is G Then we program if first signal 238 is YY Then we program if first signal 238 is G As detailed above and is now very clear to see. We would then follow this pattern for each other signal down the line. This is how HRMS recommend setting up 4x 4 aspect signals, each in turn. The sequence problem I am expereincing is that all Green signals down the line in sequence are all showing Red but, the Yellow and double Yellow are all correct. The sequence is RIGHT from RM to screen, it is only WRONG from RM to signal although each signal works perfectly on their own. R,Y,YY,G Hornby are still working on this issue. This message here is to show the new boxes (also same for points) and to show the set up as recommended by Hornby which hopefully will help others starting out with signals. These are set for Train-Tech signals. We just have to be patient, a little longer, for the fix. Meanwhile to get round the problem I have to make all G signals in the sequence YY PJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hans_van de burgt Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 I installed today the update 1.57 Everything is working OK. But.... I had to reinstall the driver also. It seemed that the driver is still a critical point. Grzz, Hans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I knew what you meant, I always try see the funny side of any situation, it always helps me get through lifes problems. My philosophy is, life isn't easy so why make it harder. Everyone will not see the funny side but I try. But, it doesn't fix the signal sequence problem. My green lights are Red down the line so my layout instead of showing green looks like a red light district. Thank goodness none are flashing! These signal discussions are now continued in Train Tech signals thread. Back to my trains ;o) PJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PJ_model_trains Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 >>>>> HRMS can you explain the following please? ● +Long press on multi aspect signals to turn to red (danger) (Pro-Pack) I notice when we change a signal it makes a clicking sound twice? Is this the long press referred to above? Is does it on all clicks to all aspect colours. I also ask, as the sequence problem you are working on, is all aspect lights that should be Green are Red?
