Train Sim World 4 - Nahverkehr Dresden Upgrade + Vectron Preview Q & A (sep. 14th)

will the new timetable + Scenarios use the new scoring system?

 

Are the stability problems solved which appear formerly on Xbox Series S and caused crashes?
Is the BR 110.3 still substituting for several locos which - beside the fact that it never has been used on this route - means that it is not possible to use the DoStos cab car because the 110.3's pantograph can‘t be operated from the driver's compartment?

 

Please demonstrate night lighting with the revised effects. DRA was one of the routes that actually has just about tolerable night lighting. Would hate that TOD4 or whatever the new effects are called make everything pitch black.

 

1.Will the Vectron bring new Services?

2. If so, can you use the BR185.5 and the other Freight Locos for these Services ?

3. And Will the Vectron have Services that uses the Shortcut around Dresden Neustadt?

 

Will the Trains from Dresden-Riesa also have the new Rain Effect.

Will the new Rain also affect Passenger Windows?

 

Will the Vectron have adjustable seat height?

 

Can you drive the Vectron on other German Routes?

 

Will the 612 and /or 628 show up as either AI or be driveable on the upgraded Dresden ?
Is the timetable completly redone or is it just the Vectron services that were updated on the previous timetable?

 

Will the Vectron get a Journey mode?

 

Yes https://dovetailgames.freshdesk.com...80001087549-nahverkehr-dresden-gameplay-guide

 

It's getting all tsw4 features

Yes it does. From a while back, the dra service count rose and the vectron files were found

Dra is getting all tsw4 features

 

If I buy UK version of TSW4 only, will I get updated Dresden timetable?

 

If you own it in TSW3 then yes

 

It's just vectron services.

 

know that this wont be answered but fort ill bring it up as this is something worth noting and want for the route will we ever see the I-C-E-T added as that is the right ICE Train for the route as we tilted already for TSW it would be nice to see this happen within the next 12months of TSW

 

Specifically, will it sub into timetable services on older German routes?

 

If you already own dra, it'll be a free upgrade so you'll get it with whatever version you get.

 

Has the Dresden route been extended in any way?

 

another wasted opportunity

 

No. It doesn't say extended. Sehs said sehs extended. Dra doesn't

 

OK, Thank you rennekton#1349. Another missed opportunity.

 

This update, will include also the final - and really long awaited - "real" sounds of the BR 187?

 

Question for the Stream. If there are 5 minutes left at the end, would it be possible to hear the improved BR187?

 

Yes. Hopefully it's good

 

There are any Updates/Changes to the route/Loco? Like the catenary or add rollsounds (junction sound)?

 

Speaking of the Vectron when you layer it to the Austrian three Country Corner route is it using the actual timetable for the Austrian version of the locomotive 1293 or not? On Hauptstrecke München Augsburg it needs to be München Nord/Innsbruck Hall in Tirol Vbf

 

Will we get the V100 back. As substitution for V60.

Will we get more variation of freight cars.

Will the Vetron have IC services?

 

I mean, a screenshot showed it with IC cars, possibly just DTG messing around tho. but I hope the door control system works!

 

but the biggest question is

will the Vectron get a traversable engine room if we throw out enough criticism? lol

 

Would love to see that screenshot. Aren't you confusing it with the pic of a rake of IC coaches hauled by two MRCE 182s ?

no there was one with the Vectron aswell but can't seem to get it here rn cuz im I'm typing on console lmao

 

there it is

 

Is it true that DBFV will sometimes contract with private operators, if they are short of traction?

 

I know they mentioned you can create ic consists via scenario editor.

 

It's mainly a graphical & tsw4 feature upgrade. So the only thing related to catenary is improved ohle rendering.

 

Will be allowed to drive freight locomotives that we haven't been able to drive on Dresden-Riesa previously (for example, the Railpool 185.6)?

 

Not to my knowledge. They aren't short on traction anyway, given they've been gradually phasing out the old InterCity coaches for years now. The one place where we will probably see leased locos on DBFV trains in the future is on the new Talgo sets. Those are planned to enter service with leased Vectrons until the Talgo locos are ready.

 

A little curved ball offshoot to pop in the stream...

Are we likely to see any flash sale (or completion bundles) on existing TSW DLC in the run up to the TSW4 release? There's a couple of routes I wouldn't mind getting to flesh out the collection, including Luzern to Sursee which will add the Swiss EMU to Vorarlberg. But not at full price.

 

Disappointing if the new timetable doesn't add 612s and 628s - hopefully the stream will go into detail about what's changed.

 

why shouldn't it? it was clearly announced

 

The new timetable is only for the Vectron. This has already been confirmed.

 

612s, fair enough, even if Dresden--Riesa is set after 612s stopped running in Dresden if I remember correctly, but I don't believe 628s ever ran in Dresden in real life.

 

No, but 628s make a good all-purpose substitute for other DMU services (like the 612 did on Bremen - Oldenburg, but better)

 

I wouldn't want them to do that. Most of the trains the 628 would substitute for aren't even run by DB in real life. What we actually need is more German diesel trains (how do we not have a LINT or Desiro Classic in game?!) as well as licenses for some non-DB German passenger train operators, rather than just slapping a DB red 628 on routes where it never ran.

 

I'd like to see some of the more modern units too, but in the interim, it's good to have the timetable as dense as possible.

 

Will it be possible to have top and tail Railpool Vectrons on Dosto sets or are they not accurate for this route?

 

wait I'm an idiot I thought it was for Vorarlberg not DRA
