Train Sim World 2 - Harlem Line!

Still waiting for this come out on Steam?

 

Yes! What is the hold up on steam? It went from a countdown to "Coming soon"

 

PATIENTLY WAITING ......

 

I already have some issues with this route, MetLife building is missing, to me that is a historic landmark for riding the metro north, as busy as the metro north route is, needs more passenger traffic and they should've opted yes AI traffic regarding the new haven line but hopefully thats something we could see down the line for the future, and i wish they added the P32AM/shoreline cab with the livery set. Train announcements on the M7A would be nice. think i might even do a video on this !

 

rip

 

Steam release time will be around 6pm

 

6pm???

 

6pm UTC.

 

Yes. That will be 2 PM EDT

 

ill give it 2pm. prolly waiting for the promotion to finish

 

No PS Launch discount, which is a shame. No real incentive to buy it until the reviews come in (or a future sale).

 

Any reason why there is no launch discount for the PlayStation?

 

Same.

 

Still not on steam pc platform yet. Still Waiting

 

Hope didn't make a mistake pre-ordering it? The March-Madness sale is on now, and I can see them adding a higher discount once on sale. I think they did this once before.

DTG JD You might as well create another thread since this is already use by us the community, when you do remember to lock it so that you can work on the article>

 

Thats asking for a bit too much. The Metlife Building i think wasnt included because DTG doesnt have the liscence to incorperate the building into the game. For passenger annoucement though there is a Video by Fan Railer where you can use a 3rd Party Program to include them

 

They could've made the building but not put the logo though if they didn't have the license

 

2:00PM AND STILL NOTHING ON STEAM

 

downloading now
7 PM local time, as usual
BR o7

 

Steam says its available now, but its not in the route select screen.
Update: Restarted Steam and it is downloading now

 

route is up. updating as we speak

 

link ?

 

For those STEAM PC Users that don't see it, you got to quit the application and reopen it. NOW ITS FINALLY DOWNLOADING

 

Just started downloading for me.

 

So I guess this is the end of manuals then, haven't gotten any in ages, it quietly disappeared from the roadmap, and now DTG officially relies on the community to create these documents and videos, amazing So much about improving them, but the main thing is that we get real-life ads now

 

Looking forward to driving this one. The safety systems links were very helpful and, from what I have seen in videos the systems work well.

My question is about speed changes. If I am going line speed and there is a speed limit decrease, am I speeding if I wait until the alarm goes off and then brake appropriately to avoid a penalty brake? In other words, should I drive such that the alarm never goes off? Is this different for ACSES versus ATC?

 

I have found that on the M3A you can't use the pass thru door to leave or go car to car,but it works to get in.The door option seems to be missing for opening the pass thru door from the inside.

 

The safety system finally work and its amazing, the train propulsion engine is so good and loud and realistic, but the only problem is still no Realistic track sound. There are junction sound like other here mention but its not loud and not close to realistic sound. I really do hope that the team will added it in the near future, cause that is whats going to make most of us here happy, and give us more realistic driving experience.
The team really needs to step up in this department especially.

There are some minor stuff like I have mentioned in the other thread such as missing some assets at grand central still, such as the ceiling fan, column track circle marker, recycling cage, and the marble glass staircase, which to other platforms.

 

I'm excited to get home from work to buy it.
Knowing that has a working ATC/ACSES and good engine sound is enough for me.
Never been in NYC so can't judge accuracy of buildings and stations.

 

The M7 is a rocket when accelerating is it like that irl ? I really doubt it

 

From what they have told us before, you don't need a licence to include logos as long as they are basically landmarks. In this instance, that MetLife building counts as a landmark, therefore could be modelled without any legal issues, just like that station in one of the german routes with a huge advertisement in it (Siemens logo, I believe?).

 

The second Journey service? Looks badly broken. Some beta-tests maybe, next time, ym?



EDIT PC - Train 616 Southeast To Gtc | Harlem Line [solved] | Dovetail Games Forums

 

I think Matt may have just accidentally mentioned an unannounced route during the Harlem release stream. He was listing all the routes providing layers to Harlem and started saying “Pacific Circ…” or “Pacific Surf…” before quickly correcting himself.

 

Hmmmm now that BNSF licensing is good it's a lot more likely.

It's been heavily requested IIRC.

 

Looking forward to the route if on sale on Xbox Spring/Summer sales for TSW 2. LIRR & Harlem Line are the Easier third rail routes in my opinion due to the absence of DSD Drivers Remainder Appliance AWS ping UK PZB Buzzer

 

Yeah, I caught that as well. He said Pacific Surfliner, pretty sure we can count that as a leak, lol

What's going on there?

Anyway this PC stream looked a bit better than the console streams, maybe I will get the route after all. Though I still dislike the look of the elevated section, and half of any M7 train is not making any traciton motor sounds. How could they still not fix that after LIRR?

 

I love it. This is what LIRR should be.

 

The sound for the AI trains (at least for the M7s) have issues. I hoped it was a console specific issue since you could tell from the stream last week that the deceleration noise was broken and didn't play, but this is also the case on PC as well. The notes also stop playing after the initial few seconds which is probably the issue you are referring to. Either way, I don't think any of these problems will ever be fixed given the fact that the Electrostars on Southeastern Highspeed and East Coastway all suffer from no deceleration sounds, and zero progress has been made on that front.

Despite these issues (along with several others), I'm having fun with the route and I think it is worth it for anyone interested in commuter rail content. The sound issues only apply to AI, so you can hear everything inside your train very well.

 

Sadly in today's stream it sounded like Matt's train had this issue as well. As he was pulling out of a station and watching the train from outside camera, the second half of his M7 didn't have any traction motor sounds (similar to LIRR).

 

you should let Matt know on the Chat right now, he is still streaming.

 

We already wrote it to him during the stream several time, but sadly it has gone unnoticed or ignored. But I will definitely write a ticket about it if I get the route.

 

where do you write the ticket at?

 

It is indeed strange that the m7a doesn't have traction motor sound throughout the train. That was a major bug in lirr. I did like the stream though. The lighting in gct looked better from what i saw although that could've simply been because it was on pc. There is rush hour passengers but they are simply scattered all over the route hence why some stations are empty. The passenger pis in the train shows the next station that you will stop at which is very cool as well. Stations are well modeled from what I've seen. If only they added the correct pis on the route though. AI trains don't have working pis or passenger lights on.

I think i'll hold off on the route until bug fixes comes to be honest. The m7a not having audio throughout the full train isn't acceptable and needs to be fixed. Surely that should've been picked up by the beta team and qa as a red flag. Unacceptable

 

I just wrote a ticket to the team, because the PIS Is not working properly, it disappear as soon as you get out of the tunnel.

“100th avenue??”

 

I didn't notice that. It sounded fine to me.
