Not a bad price but will hold back I have coped with the origional class 43 for years now back to rail simulator days so will wait to see how master key simulations turn out before I update anything

Will this mean that this Class 43 upgrade will no longer work with raildriver?, as the old kuju class 43 works quite well with it.

If you use Cobra ones' software, you shouldn't have any problems with any add-on with Raildriver, but if you do support is very good. Not a patch on the Valenta, but I think I will probably go for this. Although MKS are working on an HST, I suspect it won't appear before summer at the earliest. Lot of work.

Having watched the demo and remembering how the original MTU Pro pack sounded when I was blasting up the ECML making my scenario pack, I've noticed the differences.

The engine sound didn't really need much of an overhaul but I've noticed in the video it sounds more refined and the traction whine/turbo sounds spot on!

The cab sounds appear to be improved as well, I've noticed the 'clanking' sounds have gone and that brake rub sounds brilliant, will love smashing this on the GWML :)

Anyone who have this able to upload a video etc to give a review.
I have looked on the ap Facebook page as normally people upload videos to that shortly after release but all I see are posts with people saying they have dump files and no sounds on the hst or coaches

I'm really sorry to hear that Ross.

Sorry insofar as I can only see the one post that mentions .dmp files, though I can see many more posts praising the product. I must be looking at a different Facebook altogether perhaps?

By the way, all is working fine for me,

It may not be the FB page that I'm thinking of but, if it is, I've just resigned from it. It's full of immature kids who just love to slag things off without even having bought the pack, in some instances. There's little objective thought or opinion involved and many of them just seem to want to act as keyboard warriors, up for an argument.

They appear to love banding together to attack anyone who disagrees with their point of view, to the extent where personal abuse and name-calling is common. I'm well off out of there!

Yes, I have just been looking through the same set of posts, and it is quite ridiculous!! I laughed and left.

Cheers

Excellent pack, it has breathed new life into the old HST for sure! I love the ATP even in its partial implementation lots more functionality too, can thoroughly recommend it. :)

Why would anyone need to see a video from someone else? There's one on the AP website!
