Train Sim World 7 - Discussion

They posted about a reference trip to Huddersfield recently.

 

I can't find the post but can find the account, interestingly if you check their follows they are following Train Sim World 6's account. The above skepticism about them being for something besides TSW is fair, but I would be inclined to think they are working on a TSW project given that little tidbit.

 

Yes, here.

so potentially another Northern Route?

 

Pretty much anyone gets into developing for TSW...
Meh.

 

And, what's the issue with that?

 

There are rumours of a Northern route already so could be the same one or indeed another.

 

And then, perhaps, the whole thing will be released in a pitiful condition in a few years...

 

So what if more people want to join in and develop on TSW? there is absolutely nothing wrong with more third parties or developers joining and making their content.

 

Do whatever you want.

 

If this route is originating from Huddersfield it could be one of two things...

1. Huddersfield - Leeds
2. Huddersfield - Manchester Piccadilly.

Both featuring the Class 185.

Since TPE is under public ownership, the licence is mainly easier to get.

 

Mhm

 

Matt was active on a update thread a few hours ago.

 

Just over 24 hours to go and no really verifiable leaks. Decent job - at this point last year we’d seen a screenshot of the GWR 802 and everyone had basically guessed it was Riviera Line.

 

2 is more likely as we already have an extended version of 1. Granted though it could do with a remaster.

 

So my prediction for TSW6

No more DLCs

We'll get one big Update before the release of TSW7 to tidy us over, possibly one or two smaller ones to tidy up any leftovers.

Then, that'll be that for TSW6, Support for it will end. No more patches, no more DLCs.

Then for TSW7, Some releases that were scheduled for TSW6 will be held back, but they'll be lacking any features announced for TSW7 as a result, so we probably won't get any of the features on a DLC until about November time at the earliest. (Not including the core routes for TSW7).

 

Huddersfield could also be to Sheffield possibly?

 

We need a 91 for take a ticket UK locomotive

 

Branch line with an hourly service and not much else wouldn’t be huge on replayability.

 

Fair enough

 

would you rather the dlc quality is how it is now, or how it was 3 years ago? third party content, for the most part has been a blessing and has saved us from dtg’s monopoly over dlc quality

 

Are you sure?

 

care to elaborate? prior to 2024, there were very few third parties and content was wildly inconsistent. nowadays, dlc quality is pretty consistent and flat out bad dlc’s are few and far between

 

The Huddersfield trip could be a NTP remaster/modern remake?

 

Looking back at that 158 leak, I have just now noticed the stickers are neville hill depot in Leeds.

That brings more evidence to Airedale and Wharfdale.
