Rail Driver GP20 problems

Unread postby ironcat60 » Wed Jan 08, 2020 10:28 pm

Not sure where else to ask this.

Searched the forum first and really didn't find any complete answers.

So the throttle on Rail Driver doesn't actually move the locomotive until notch eight. Notches one through seven do not even increase the engine rpm's.

The Reverser, Train Brake, and everything else appears to be working correctly.

This deficiency occurs in both advanced and standard models. Calibrating the Driver controller has no effect on the problem.

So has anyone found a solution to this? Have contacted PI Engineering but no response from them yet.

And yes I'm impatient or trying all resources to find a answer take your pick.

Have you tried the TS Joystick software that was made by a 3rd party? It should allow for remapping the controller to any in-game control name value, which is likely the issue.

I have had great success with TS Raildriver and Joystick interface than with Macroworks. More of the advanced locos are supported natively.
