I don't think it's that bad. There are more exciting landscapes in Germany for sure, but it does add the one thing that DRA originally was...
And one more thing: Stuttgart's S-Bahn tunnel is pretty short, and it has just four underground stations (Hbf, Stadtmitte, Feuersee, &...
Wittenberger Kopf and 140 are both awesome. The route itself looks pretty interesting too: big terminus station at Stuttgart, the south half is...
Sounds like a good route to me. As well-made as Preston - Carlisle is, it does get boring quickly for me because it's so long between stops, so a...
Do the CSX locos have ATC & ACSES for running on the NEC? If so, this could finally be the route that gets us US freight trains with safety...
I do agree that Dresden - Riesa actually isn't as great as people generally think it is. It definitely has the potential to be that good though,...
Yeah, the option to use the 145 on regional trains is pretty cool! At the time the 145 ran between Leipzig and Dresden, the route was pretty...
It's not. It comes with the ČD class 843, a Czech railcar from the 90s. [IMG] Petr Štefek, CC-BY-SA 3.0 cz
Large families of similar-looking trains aren't a new invention. Deutsche Bundesbahn had a four-digit number of Einheitselloks (E10, E40, E41,...
Not a TSW issue. The rules for which speed restrictions get (which kind of) PZB magnet(s) are a bit more complex than "anything under x km/h gets...
It has: TSG are giving a share of the proceeds from the E94 pack to the owners of real-life E94 088.
No matter how well you are taught, learning two complex things at the same time will always be more stressful and frustrating than learning one...
If you're a newcomer, it is a fun issue. And these were the first (and only) steam locomotives in TSW, so there were a lot of newcomers.
In your opinion.
Turns out different people enjoy different things. Who knew! I'm not sure I agree with this for ALL steam locos, but it's definitely true for...
No it's not, at least not necessarily. The WiKo cab was used on ex-DR y-Wagen as well as n-Wagen. Either way, this cab car would not just be a...
I'd love a 212 as well, but isn't it the part of my message that's by far the least relevant to the actual topic?
Let's say you're a developer who wants to make an Expert 141 and you're deciding whether or not you also want to make a Standard 141 alongside....
This is not a bug. You can see the "Zs aus" light is on - this means your train line power (the electricity supply from the loco to the coaches)...
I don't think it would. It's more work, and the two versions of the loco are going to cannibalize each other's sales. The other way round (making...
You mean like the TfW 150, TfW 153, Metrolink F59PHR, DB 111, MBTA HSP46, MBTA F40PH, Metrolink MP36, Metrolink F125, DB 114, DB 146, DB Vectron,...
Click on the link.
Yes.
That's not a problem with the 170 pack. The list of destinations is part of the route. As soon as today's update is released on consoles, it will...
The July roadmap says it's "one last reveal" for TSW5, not the last release. Which is true.
From the Dovetail Live artice.
An accelerometer, as far as I can tell. No idea why.
All HUD types have an accelerometer, even the minimal HUD.
Good for you! Genuinely. I do completely understand how this pack is appealing if you're specifically interested in (this era of) British...
Come on. No one is saying that loco allocations shouldn't be realistic. But "more realistic loco allocations" on it's own isn't the strongest...
Yes, but in non-expert mode you need to activate them. In expert mode they are on by default. In non-expert mode fault simulation is deactivated...
You have to turn on some valves as well. It's all explained in the manual.
Well, exactly. DTG is obviously comfortable making addons that don't work, and aren't released, on gen 8. So what harm could it actually do to the...
They could take it off of the disk for the next version though.
JD said on the roadmap stream that they are still working on it but can't promise anything yet.
He gave his reasons: TOD4 and wagon physics. You may not agree with that, but it's not arbitrary.
I don't understand what's fun about not stopping regularly? There's no steering the train or anything, so all that you actually do in a train...
That's a bit of an exaggeration, isn't it? You can get a basic road bike for a three-digit sum, but for a "half decent" one you're looking at...
Did you forget a .kill file? Happened to me multiple times.
You're not actually allowed to copy DTG assets into your route plugin and redistribute them for free anyways. You can use them by referencing the...
No. Galluswarte is not between Frankfurt Hbf and Mainz/Wiesbaden. No. There are no conductors on these trains in real life.
Honestly, yes. On German (and similar) systems, where the end of the area in which signal speeds apply is depends on what type the signal is...
The problem isn't that clicking a button to choose a timetable is too much work. The problem is that neither of the two timetables is as good as...
Dreadful, really? It's much better than DTG's previous attempts at a Taurus. As for the route itself, I do find it slow and tedious for the...
Simple DC circuitry and standard air or vacuum brakes. More complex to use, but not especially challenging to simulate, I wouldn't think.
I mean, "26 more playable services and over 1200 new AI services" in service mode (plus many changes to services that already existed) and "Five...
In real life, the Auxiliary Control is only used for shunting or when the Main Control System (Speed Selector etc.) has failed. Place the Speed...
I mean, at this point they've started repainting them into old liveries. There was actually only a fairly short length of time when DB didn't have...
They didn't repaint everything on day one. In fact, many locomotives were never painted in Orientrot and wore blue/beige (or even older paint...
No. If a train is on the map, it has to be in memory, regardless of whether there's one of them on the map or ten. So removing one layer entirely...
