Definitely horses for courses. The much sought after but sadly still elusive addition of a NYC Subway route to TSW is by definition a bus stop...
Nah, to me always a bus stop route!
It would be one way to satisfy the clamour we frequently see for long distance Amtrak routes or in the UK going all the way from London to...
In the UK both PC Specialist and Overclockers UK offer the option to configure your own PC. If/when I replace the potato that’s the option I will...
And as noted, if you look at SimRail server usage, numbers have plunged significantly apart from the primary Polish language server which seems to...
Definitely a chicken and egg (or six and two threes) situation here. I mean, flawed though it was TML Studios (Aerosoft) must have got some sort...
I read and reread the OP(s) yesterday evening but couldn’t get my head round them to make a sensible response before bedtime. More than a hint of...
Not quite sure why it’s necessary to have a forensic dissection of the “bus stop” paradigm. It’s a bit of harmless irreverence by those of us who...
Looks like a 156 to me...
Because the passenger algorithms in TSW5 are seriously broken.
Fairly certain I saw CIG's down there in the late 70's and early 80's plus of course the VEP's.
It has overtones of AI about it too.
Probably the best route would be the Arlberg Pass as done by Kuju for the original MSTS but the problem is DTG unlikely to make it as a steam era...
Yes please. TSG to the stage please.
Then give players the choice. Realistic or enhanced. I mean technically you shouldn’t hear any of the BR Classic diesel loco exhaust thrash in the...
This, basically.
Currently driving the Class 40 on WCL (!) and have to agree, while the sounds are accurate they are not passing through the transition to the full...
If it's anything like many train companies, they have CCTV in the cab monitoring the driver. No operator is going to jeopardise their career to...
I believe it’s 15 MPH at the platform ramp but you should be approaching the buffers at less than 10 MPH to avoid tripping the overspeed.
Here is the situation as outlined by Matt, so basically not going to happen.
Also the 57 does not sound like a typical GM, has a much rougher and harsher exhaust note assuming DTG could get decent audio samples. Bring on...
I really think we need a sticky regarding correct use of language or maybe when people sign up needs to be made clear this is an English language...
This seems to be duplicating a similar post in GD. As Rennekton says there is no one factor at play and unless driving something with super sharp...
It depends on the train. With classic BR loco hauled stock I would not run into the platform at more than 15 MPH given the delay in the brakes...
Fortunately this time there are no collectibles, the problem actually bring not to activate them when walking up and down platforms. I have...
A while ago, might be worth searching for MTA, NYC or subway with DTG Matt as the poster see what's been thrown up. Seems unlikely things have...
Matt's comment revolved around the content, not so much the core. Again don't want to read too much into it as for all we know they are still...
Only French route is the Mediterranean LGV one, nowhere near where the Orient Express would have run. Current political considerations mean any...
Can't quote the exact reference, but the EP (Matt) has previously stated there is little to no chance of a NYC Subway route. MTA will not allow...
TSW5 is dead in a few weeks, being replaced byTSW6. Also if you're unaware, DTG still have a hiatus on doing anything further steam wise for TSW...
Just got a feeling from what Matt let slip the other week about the routes etc. being nowhere near ready we may be looking at a later date,...
This. And while noting and appreciating Jan's comments ultimately if you have a 24/7 forum with a wide cross section of posters, even if 99% of...
Low speed, probably West Somerset as at least you know where you stand with the 25 MPH speed restriction. Runner up probably Bakerloo but only...
It could have just been cleaned up though Jan and also serves to illustrate how the lack of moderation ant weekends allowed a simple bit of thread...
Could this thread now be end of life? I see the Rivet one got the padlock this morning, rather than just cleaning up some of the silliness that...
Have to say, think the walking objective has rather ruined this month’s campaign. Even after racking up 0.7 miles in that rather silly CCN...
The only way Amtrak is really going to work in TSW is if you did some sort of scaled down ATS style map. So 1000 miles becomes 50 or 60 miles....
Quoting myself, but here you go Matt.
It’s a while since I played it but I do recall it was a Down Timetable run but in Journey. Daytime run. Let me investigate…
Earlier in the thread we were postulating Florida as a possible new home for the next round of US route building. Though only if we get some...
Because this is an English language forum, operated by a commercial software developer based in the UK. As English is the international language...
Sign me up Day One for this!
Xeno as in Xenomorph? Best Alien game I played was Alien Trilogy on the PS1. Atmospheric soundtrack, genuinely creepy moments and some tough...
1A48 Radyr to Radyr.
We still see the issue though, usually on timetable runs within Journey mode where we can't tweak the weather (without the God mode), where the...
Well the 66 was on the Cardiff end of the train so it must have been heading onto the City Line or via Llandaff, not off towards Pontypridd.
Well there is a school of thought that DTG now largely consists of marketing and admin people. I certainly get a vibe there aren’t many...
Even what we got does not fulfill its potential. Pulling into Radyr on a round the City Line, spied a rake of Mark 2’s hauled by a 66 in one of...
Exactly my thoughts. It really just isn't long enough, particularly when you compare with what the German route building team produced with the...
I wondered why I was dreaming about Alien facehuggers last night! In the immortal words of Private Hudson (played by the late and much lamented...
