DCForum Discussion Forum - Hi SamSpade

Thanks that I can send my cab-files to you for checking. I don´t think that my problem depends on my new cab and the train I´m using with. Even if I use the original HHP-cab in the editor the same problem appears. So, what ´ve I done:First I made a new Installation of the MSTS.
Than I checked, if the HHP-Brake-lever works animated when driving, it did.
Now I copied the cabview-file into a temporary, opened the cab in the cab-editor and ereased the brake-lever.
Than I loaded the same lever new in the cab, saved it and started the MSTS.
As I expected, the brake-lever didn´t work animated.
After closing the MSTS I ereased the CABVIEW and copied the saved, original one back into the HHP.
After I started the MSTS the brake-lever works again animated when driving the HHP.Do you´ve any idea why that happened ?Markus

Markus,I have found that the cabeditor strips out some animations seemingly at will (though I am sure there is an expalnation).As a test, open your test cvf file in a Unicode editor and look forthe brake entry. Note the graphic content - Numframes, Numpositions, Numvalues.Edit the file in the cab editor as previously described in your email. After saving the file open it in your Unicode editor again and compare the brake entries. They will be set to zero, if I am not mistaken.If this is the case, you could manually paste the correct entries from the original file and run a test with that. -------SamSpade--------
