this thread was originally about the difference of the trains on the routes, I must be the odd one out here... but isn't that a bit more life...

*below is from my memory of reading the book 'A Locoman's Log' by Bill Allcock* In the late 1950's, steam engines began to get speedometers...

i guess we can only hope that there will then be updates to reasign the buttons in a logical order, like all German trains have 3 PZB/LZB...

console = hardcore gamer.... maybe gamer as in FPS games, hardcore sim user = PC. i'd love to see someone connect a console to a real dashboard...

are you sure it's the word 'poo'? and not 'Liver' as that's offensive to vegans :p

yup, and that port closing just before TDC / BDC is done to give a cushion effect, so the piston does not slam all the way forwards/backwards then...

i took a cl*bottom* 150 from *willy*tone to S*fanny*horpe the other day

i only like to drive German trains and routes, but i am still interested in SimRail, because if they can pull it off they may have something that...

i would happily pay extra for a 'pro' version of routes / trains, i am only interested in German trains and routes, but in TSC there's Virtual...

steam always claim games are being released 'soon' and make up dates to keep people happy. i'd prefer it if the simrail team took another year...

As long as they make a Wittenberger Steuerwagen to go with the 111, but i'm kinda biased, due to owning the driving desk from one (my avatar is...

might have to ask epic games about this? as you say, other games / simulators built using the unreal engine has editors. A while back i was...

be nice to know what these licencing issues are tho? Do they need to pay someone every time they use a logo in their editor, pay to use the...

this is one of the things i don't get, this game / simulator, you play a person who walks about the world, collects things, fixes things, and can...

32 sound limit... that's not an unsuitable thing in a game engine for a train driving simulator?

maybe this is why: https://metro.co.uk/2007/06/11/train-driver-in-urination-tragedy-446051/

ahh ok, i think maybe DTG had been so absorbed in working on the steam engines and 1958 route for the past year and a half, not a lot seem'd to...

This is the PC Discussion forum. surely you'd get better replies on the playstation pages?

Yes we really need more clothing variety, I wonder if it could be possible to have a randomiser that can change the shades of the clothing...

well, it is a game, made for players with 2022 thoughts, values and so on, so why can't this alternate history have diesel loco's, DMU's,...

ahh yeah that makes more sense, with the dosto's and loco hauled passenger trains, you turn the 'Türfreigabe' rotary switch to 'release the...

i do hope it does nothing on the train in question, as there would be no way to get the vacuum from the loco up front producing the vacuum, to...

ahh, not quite what i was trying to say. in the BR425 and similar EMU's, they have the 3 push buttons for the doors... here's a set i 3D printed:...

The 187 has the worst reviews and was sitting at 75% thumbs down on steam last time i looked. i only needed to read about 3 of the steam reviews...

ahh yeah, i did mean the warning sound only plays when the barriers are closing (or opening maybe in some parts of the world) the ones i'm used...

i can totally understand that when you have something like TSW2, built on a game engine that was never really designed to run a simulator, with...

i was driving one of the German EMU's the other day, think it was a BR425, when you drop speed below about 10kph the door open buttons begin to...

same here, i want all the German addons as i only drive German trains, i am only missing a couple of shunters (as i'm not that much into...

you know this thing about the level crossing sounds... anyone know why we are even hearing the warning sounds in the train at all? I think...

About an hour at my local hackspace using their laser cutter tonight, and i have a few bits of 3mm thick acrylic sheet in weird shapes with lots...

i know it's a different game engine, but for TSW there is the 3rd party add on RW Enhancer, this has a radio function, and it allows you to talk...

you need to remember this is the 1950's, you'd have 3 types of freight wagons, 'fitted' which had vacuum operated brakes, 'piped' which had a...

If it's for the PC, you could remap some of the keyboard assignments in the sim. For my 3D printed Euro RailDriver build, my reversing switch...

This is a photo from the book 'A Locoman's Log' by Bill Alcock. One of his train workings slips he'd be given to carry with him in the train he...

back in the day, they used typewriters and carbon paper. i read that on the london underground, it was usually someone who had some spare time...

German trains have the EBuLa screen, before that every train had a shelf of thick books with every route and timetable the train could run, and...

Emergency brake lever and wiper lever, mounted in a 3D print of the front right controller box side panel, the black curved pieces are the ones i...

As others have said, until the pressure in the brake chambers is near zero, the throttle is locked out, This train does take a while to respond...

Wiper lever: [ATTACH] In the style found in the dosto's and some EMU's (BR425 i think) ... i.e. the ~1990's type that uses a big chunky metal...

These were reported a few days ago, it's likely something very simple, a missing comma or other symbol that separates the various textures in...

dxltagxmma (or anyone who's good at coding) I am useless at coding, but i need to learn or find someone who can do this kind of thing. I'm...

what do you mean by 'full brakes'? To me that's the VB position, full service, and it'll take a few seconds to pump the pressure back into the...

i'd love to know what this 'convention' is they are changing the button mapping to (for the German trains as they are all i drive) Using the...

EMU door buttons: [ATTACH] I printed the button parts with clear PLA, so i can light them up in the future if we get an API that can read the...

i think this is from the book 'saltley firing days' 2 steam loco's went in for a major overhaul at the same time, When they came back their...

Pretty much. There is a logic to the signals... but it's learning that logic. a british train driver had to sign a legally binding piece of...

A lot of people who love the German routes and loco's hoped that TSW2 would be the fabled 'Zusi with modern graphics' But Zusi is one bloke...

The Brake OverCharge Button was next to be modeled and printed. [ATTACH] A push button is a lot simpler than the rotary switches i made...

The uk used/uses route based signalling (Europe uses speed based signalling, in the UK it's upto the driver to know the all speed limits on the...

Decided i didn't like the 'key' i'd made for the brake lockout switch, so made one to resemble a flat style key, which allowed me to make the...
