Full Throttle. Since its
release, I’ve had fewer than 30 downloads and have received absolutely no
feedback from anyone about this program, good or bad.

I know that I was one of those 30, Chris--sorry about not getting back to you.
I d/led it but never actually used it yet :( So busy just getting a layout up
and running--making buildings, etc :)
I do plan on using the software, mayhaps this weekend :)
As an addendum, I’ve noticed that LDCC didn’t ‘catch on’ as much as I
anticipated. I know I’ve been running it exclusively on my layout at home since
Mark released it, and at NMRA, rtlT used it on the layout there. Even at the
hobby show LDCC was used most of the time. I think the thing is that we only
have 2, maybe 3 trains going at any given time, and all those can be handledfrom
the remote--full throttle, for 9 trains, isn’t to our ‘scale’ range (yet :) )
But I will honestly give it a go this weekend. It’s here on my laptop right
now, and I have 2 modified motors, and am planning to get a few more chips this
weekend so I can convert at least 3 of my 4 remaining DC motors to DCC.
Anyway, there are DCC users out there, and I believe, in the future, there will
be Full Throttle users for the larger layouts.

now your software for reed switches and TD layouts sounds very interesting :)

I have been working on a different project toward the same end-- improved train layout automation, and I have had similar questions as to whether it is worth the effort for the small number of people who might actually benefit from it.
