    Hi James, sorry to bump this, but will the patch be getting an update by any chance? The TPE locos now have the orange AAR style sockets in place of the grey rectangle ones, apparently they were a bit crap!

    Thanks.
    Terrone.

    Excellent work! I only wish that the 68 would work in ‘push’ mode!
    Cheers James.

      any push pull compatibility would have to be done from the other stock perspective

        Yeah, i think it has been mentioned somewhere before that it is something to do with the way that DTG has done the scripting. Not to worry.

          its not down to DTG the AP EP doesn’t use any DTG scripting, Any stock like a DBSO or DVT has to be directly scripted to work properly with specific stock, while the UNI variant works with basic scripting, the newer more advanced packs require specific scripting on the end of the DBSO/DVT in order for the to loco work correctly when the DBSO/DVT is Leading.
          AP have said they intend to to update the DBSO and DVT but not until they have done a pack for all the locos that run/ran with them.
