Gwe Remaster: Appreciation And Discussion Thread

Thanks . I know it's something small but its always bugged me whenever I play this route.

 

That’s what I took away from that post. But let’s not get too excited.

 

An extension would only make sense if a TSW6 route was, for example, Reading to Bristol and they were going to include the remastered London section as a single merged entity.

 

Not an extension, no. However, some nice 'extras' to the route. I'll leave it at that

 

Good to know.

I get the feeling the core route for TSW6 will do be a GWE route but further south. One that makes use of the XC & GWE licences they just got. Maybe it'll layer onto the remaster. Who knows.

 

I just wish they would move it forward or back a few years.
If I had OCD it would be because of this route. I hate the unfinished OHLE in it, because it represents a short period of time.
Said it many times but I would rather have it electrified all the way to Reading or remove the electrified bits once you get past airport junction.
I'm sure it means nothing to most of you, but I can't stand it as it is.

 

How did you find this out?

 

He is a beta tester. And possibly is working on the route

 

I genuinely do suffer from OCD and I can't say it bothers me in the slightest... In actual fact it captures a part of history when the GWML was transitioning from diesel to electric.

I somewhat agree it would be nice to have the 'knitting' go all the way to Reading, purely just to have another route to use the 387 properly.

But for the most part I'm pretty happy with the period it covers.

 

Well, I don't suffer from OCD but I will always prefer driving diesel rather than electric. So the way it is now or preferably set back aways is fine.
Although I imagine if it were fully electrified I would still have the DLoGW to play with.
I just wish it went a bit further, to Oxford and had at least one local branch.

 

tl:dr After doing (and enjoying) a DLOGW run on GWE a couple of evenings ago, am I correct in assuming this will be coming across to the remastered version?

 

I hope so cause I like playing that one .

 

Yes, it's getting the TOD4 (well, the 52, 101 and gronk) and some bug fixes IIRC.

 

Excellent.

 

Sounds good.

When it's done, this might be a binge route for me.

 

Fantastic news Liam, can’t wait.

 

Will we also get new layers for DLOGW, like br blue mk1s and mk2s both intercity and br blue?

sorry if this was already asked or is a pointless question

 

Great. Doesn't get any better than that. Whatever the TSW6 launch brings, this remastered route will be the standout.

 

Okay cool

 

Will the safety systems be sorted out.

 

It would be wonderful if a no-wires patch could come out again. There was a mod for TSW2 that eliminated all the OLE on the route, making the DL runs much more satisfying. For some reason stopped working on TSW5.

I am still hoping that TSW6 will include some scenery layer options, like timetable layers, that could be toggled to suit running different eras, which would be the only console-friendly way to do this.

 

This would be fantastic if it could be done.
