trainsim.com http://www.trainsim.com/vbts/tslib.php?do=copyright&fid=26553 is a set by Charlie Sibaja. That gets you the type that moves across the top sector of the dial
http://www.trainsim.com/vbts/tslib.php?do=copyright&fid=19239 by Dwight Mitchell. That one uses the bottom sector of the dial. In both cases the two needles should move left to right.
For the vertical type of movement the default 2000 should be ok.

I believe I have found the bug, and attach here my proposed patch. At least the GenGP9 cab pointer moves with this patch. I wonder if the same correction should be inserted also for the tractive force load meter, even if usually it would not have effect, as the minimum value for that one is 0.

As the tractive force needle is working properly at the moment, I would be inclined to leave that alone.

I attach here a reviewed patch, that intervenes only when the maximum range value of the cabview meter is equal to 0, leaving things unaltered in the other cases.

Hi Carlo,
Am home once more (great weekend), so hope to commit your patch this evening.
Which loco cabs are you testing these changes with?

I have tested it with the GenGP9 cab (one of them mentioned by Mervyn) and with the standard D9 cab, to check that existing cabs still work.

Fixed in X1685.
Imported from https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1177436
There are a number of MSTS cvf files that use two or more pointers to display ammeter information. Currently, none of those I have tested work properly in one way or another. The two pointer dial type ammeter has one pointer for "traction" which works properly but the "dynamic" indicator does not move although from the HUD it is clear that dynamic brakes do in fact work.
I have included one example of each type I have found so far.
There is also a problem with another type of display that uses pointers moving in a vertical scale of which the default series 2000 electric is an example. In this one the pointer should run bottom to top, but moves in the opposite direction.
