    I LOVE buttons. Will be excited to drive the AC4400 for the first time. I also can’t help but notice the draw distance! Before June 9th I had no idea what to have expected from the announcement DTG planned and It certainly wasn’t TSW2. I think we all just were excited for the next route announcement. TSW2 has features I never would have expected us to have this year, if not ever. I’m very excited with everything DTG is doing with TSW2 and I can’t wait for what this next year brings and I’m glad to have the passionate community to share it with! 7A887B74-569A-4832-BE0F-D3DA0FF85A9F.jpeg

    The "Führerraum 3" in the Talent 2 is wrong. There are only "Führerraum 1" and "Führerraum 2"

    Here is a picture of the wrong texture:

    This is a copy/paste from the main page for TSW2:
    Train Sim World 2 will be £24.99 / €29.99 / $29.99 at launch on Steam, PlayStation and Xbox.

    Seeing as this is about 'authentic detail', the textures on the desk look pretty low quality? Could just be the angle of the image mind you.

    Especially the cockpits of the DB BR 406 and the GE AC4400 CW look so impressive. Very good work DTG.

    True, maybe going for that marble look haha. I'm extremely impressed with the seat fabric graphics though, finished the cab off nicely.

    Man, I can't wait to get my hands on Train Sim World 2 and finally be able to play on the Sand Patch Grade. It's definitely been a long time coming. The AC4400CW and the SD40-2 cabs look absolutely stunning.
    So, I know this topic has been brought up throughout the forum a couple times but I haven't seen any definitive answers (though I may have missed it): will the GP40-2 also be included?

    And the GP40-2 was one of my favorites on CSX Heavy Haul, and NEC was my favorite route. I guess we can't have everything we want in life.

    I actually like driving the cab car, but it had to have been the single most useless DLC.

    Just one of a million ways they messed up NEC. I'd love to see it made properly in the new engine, but think they'd have to practically start all over.

    Unless they significantly extended it, the current section of the mainline route that's modeled does not provide for compelling gameplay IMO. The CSX portion is quite good, and even the switcher is good if you can handle the slow speeds, but running the mainline is wasting the excellent ACS-64 model. Also they HAVE to add NJT, Metro North and LIRR services, the omissions are too glaring.

    /rant
    P.s. i've accepted it's not happening, but do we know WHY the GP40-2 can't be migrated over to TSW2? It runs on Sandpatch on PC, right? I'm on Xbox, but i'm sure i heard that before.

    I enjoyed driving it as well, but only going as far as one station was ridiculous would of had more fun going end to end with it.

    Yes the GP40-2 was available as DLC for Sandpatch on PC. It added new scenarios and timetable runs, plus two new freight cars: a 73-foot centerbeam flatcar and a CSX 42-foot steel coil car.

    I did enjoy the Amtrak dlc, the Switcher and the cab car even though it wasn’t very useful as it only ran on NEC. I always thought DTG would make another route in the future that made more use of these two. Obviously I have no idea but we can hope that we will get a new route that DTG can bring the Switcher and the cab car over to TSW2.

    Perhaps sometimes in the future we'll get the news that the NEC will port to TSW2. But I think we have to wait longer than a year. I would compare it with Sand Patch for consoles. It needs over 2 years to port it to consoles.

    Maybe they could create a remastered version of the GP40-2 to take advantage of all the new features of TSW 2, and it could have new scenarios and timetable runs to Sandpatch.

    Yeah, although honestly I'd rather see a new road unit, rather than another switcher. We already have 2 switchers for Sandpatch.

    He is no bot. He's is an asian human with a good behavior. He never said a bad word here. And why he should not use short sentences? Each person has a different kind of writing, that should be accepted.

    It doesn't matter that he uses short words to communicate something. The problem is he usually posts things that do not add anything to the conversation. Seems like he is just wanting to make posts to increase his forum level on the left side. That is annoying because it flags the conversation as "unread", so when I go and click I find that there is really nothing of interest there. Then multiply that for 3 or 4 times each time I visit the forum ... guess you get the idea.
