SD70ACE, C40-8W, AC400CW, CTC-3 headlights don't shine bright enough when you run at night. If this small fix can be taken care of ill be happy, it's fun running at night, but not when your headlights are at the max and still can't see the track ahead of you.
What I do not understand is, these are simple small fixes, like the horn and headlight issue. All that's needed is just do it!
That would mean ai drivers would blind you or everything is washed out due to how headlights currently work in tsw. It doesn't have the tech where it doesn't cast light on the ground in the morning and only casts at night.
It's a lot of dlc to upgrade. There's over 50 dlc that would need to be updated. And up to the special projects team which is quite small. If they can't bring it to every single dlc, I would want at least the rush hour routes to receive the new lighting and clouds since those are really popular.
Right, but for example, Clinchfield needs some scenery filled in places. Looks bland. Next, the F7 needs a new horn..prototypical. Last, some of the engines when in lead have no front headlight on. Easy quick fixes..not complicated. Then it would be pretty good.
I'm sorry, but how did we get from "headlights don't shine bright enough", an issue that can actually prevent people from driving these trains properly at night, to scenery and horn problems? Sorry mike#4092 but I can play Clinchfield just fine without the scenery problems you mention. My eyes are glued to the speedometer, since most of these branches have a 10mph limit, and if you exceed the limit, you take silver not gold. Also, since I've never been in a real F7 and can't tell the difference, the horn sounds good enough to me. Finally, with F7, there's no way to control the trail engine's lights, like in the SD40, so you have to climb into the other loco to manually turn on the headlights. My point here is that these things are issues for some people, not everyone. I understand your point of view, with the scenery and the accuracy of the horn, but they don't prevent me from completing the services on Clinchfield. Bad lights at night is a different issue: if it rains, in order to see anything, I use the external camera (place it in front of the lead loco).
irl, headlights aren't used for the drivers to see what's ahead of them, they are used to basically show the presence of the train from a far (ish) distance, it's more about safety
Then I guess you like half done garbage and do not hold a game company to any standards. It's called being lazy. If you are trying to mimic a time period and route then it would seem important to create it without leaving out obvious things. I like detail, like the majority on here. When I'm driving a train I expect to see details, like in the prototypical climate. You just keep on playing with low standards in mind pal. Have a nice day.
Hello DTG Matt please could you have a look on this? we don't see anything at night with the BR 185, 4024 etc Thanks!!!
