Nothin will be lost. The cabsway will be set to standard to prevent the jelly cam. Some texture and model issues will be fixed. And a whole new LZB will come with it (if i get it to work).

I already asked on the DE forum, but I better ask here too... anybody knows how to confirm LZB Ende with this loco?

I tried Indusi Frei, Wachsam, SIFA, no go, the loco did an emergency stop while flashing Ende for LZB and I even could not get rid of the alarm after that - I tried pressing everything I could.

I double-checked the manual, there is no note of it there - or at least I did not see it...

In Taurus you use the same button as for SIFA (Q) for that...

The only way to acknowlege the LZB END procedure or cancel the emergency process is to hit key <END> (PZB Frei) (emergeny only if train is standing). If it is not working then you may have problems with your keyboard or TS key detection. The LZB is beta, but that key works fine ervertime i was testing this (LZB END procedure and emergeny brakings). I'm on a total reworking the LZB so please be patient for an update in the near future.

I take back the confirmation, pzb frei works. But I tested cancelling the alarm twice (two runs on Munich Augsburg) and it is not working. It cannot be the keyboard as I see pzb frei being pressed in the cab and pzb frei also gives out that buzzing sound that I _can_ hear when pressing it.

I understand you are working on a new LZB and this is not a big issue anyway...

I downloaded the version 2 of the loco but I presume the various fixes have not been applied yet?
Running over the Hamburg - Hannover route the loco was really swaying from side to side quite badly.

No, I think that IS the latest update but its dated Oct 14th so probably not the one were all waiting for :D

Hi Peter,

the update fixing the so-called jelly cam has not been released yet, but I have the fixed cab file directly from vR. PM me or drop me an email if you're interested, I hope Maik would not mind - it is a simple config file after all. And I know this issue is really annoying on some routes.

vR have previewed a new version of the 103 on their Facebook page. Comes with Interregio stock, and the 103 appears to be one of the later builds, which were slightly longer than earlier units.

If they do 103 233-3 :) then I will get it but I don't really like the Orient Rot livery.

Yes. When did vR start selling Mathias's coaches? I notice 8 packs on the vR site but not all of Mathias's stock.

These are all new coaches build by Ulf and not from Mathias.

Since about two weeks. And yes, only selected packages are present on our store.

Hi Maik,

do you think there's a chance the new Br 103 with the revised LZB could be released till Christmas? I plan to get H-H for Christmas, would be great to have it by then...

Many thanks! And thanks again for this wonderful loco!
