Found it !

What ??

The screenshot used for the upload was shamelessly ripped out of the Rail Simulator Screenshots forum

Shamelessly ?

BTW, it's not from the Screenshots forum but from the Cab View Creation forum, isn't it ?

It's just a bit of humour

And you're right, it was indeed the cab view forum

I have used hexas for a long time, but now i have to say that i don't understand this at all.
How can 000000A09999E9BF be -0.80000001 ?
I searched a hex coverter in the web and it gives me 689771768255 as a result for that.

I would appreciate if someone could explain me this (this is embarassing, because i'm a computer scientist myself, but
i'm just a question mark now

).

It would also be nice to know which tool to use to convert these values correctly.

Remember it's a floating point number, not a normal number. Look up floating point to hex conversion.

The problem was that this double precision was quite new to me.

I found this from the Wikipedia myself and this converter as well.

It's nice that they store the bytes in that order in KRS.

great fix..just what I was looking for.. With 3d cabs like this would it be possible do you think to have an addon that actually allows more freedom in the cab position such as active cam in fsim...

Fantastic idea I say or maybe the use of track IR (I have tried but it doesn't work) here it is if your not sure what it is http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jYWfVUA-m7E
