The TSC code has nothing to do with FSX. DTG only latterly acquired the rights to sell it and patch up the core so it worked slightly better on...
Could this be a serious rival to SimRail? https://store.steampowered.com/app/3660700/Train_Driver_2/ Not sure about the requirement to register...
A side effect of DTG exercising distribution control. If JT had been able to sell this direct from their own shop with no cut to DTG and Steam,...
I still think upgrading catering cars and having some sort of interactive service menu as the virtual steward would make an interesting mini game....
Might give it another go, if it is a random bug. More anecdotal to mention really as the chances of DTG revisiting this OG route are pretty much...
As an interesting aside, when playing around the last couple of evenings trying to coax better frame rate out of WCMLoS on my GTX1650, adjusting...
Ordinarily I would have left this for a sale at that price but backed myself into a corner, all joking aside, as regards the RMB! :) However the...
Without going off topic, yes it does look like hardware is part of the problem. Having a quick look around the GTX1650 Super now seems to have...
Large bump but this scenario came up by random and still appears to be broken. Set up slow speed control, release indie and apply power but the...
Well as a test I just loaded a run on Fife Circle and that was returning 17 FPS so yes, it looks like the newer routes need a better video card.
What's your GPU? Mine is a GTX1650 with 4Gb VRAM which is possibly the bottleneck.
24Gb of RAM and no doubt it’s a potato but still a huge disparity between respective frame rates even allowing for WCML being a newer route. I...
There is definitely something still dragging down performance on this route. Purely by accident I hit F3 to reveal the FPS teetering around...
Yes technically TSW5 actually made the older routes run worse, with the additional overhead caused by the 2D map and all the other baggage it...
If you go back up the page to Post 1419 the instructions are there. However it worked for about a day then stopped.
I would love Cumbrian Coast but fear traffic levels are not high enough to give a varied timetable. There’s also the niggling issue of whether...
At the risk of veering off topic… one of the great ironies about making an overnight journey (sat up) to travel over the scenic Far North line was...
Tongue was firmly in cheek…
Well there is a certain irony that the core of this article is discussing, an albeit simplified version, what is the oldest loco in TSW yet steam...
BR “cuisine” in the 70’s and early 80’s had a, perhaps slightly undeserved, reputation for being a bit dour. After the long overnight journey from...
Release electric brake? Failing that, physics reset from the pause menu perhaps.
And still hits the brick wall there is little chance of getting a Cross Country license.
Inverness to Perth with a Class 26 next, please!
The RMB is king! But seriously in the ideal world we would have got both and yes the RBR, either with the plastic bucket seats or free standing...
Certainly on flat routes, the horizon draw distance could be pulled in. I think SimRail still gets away with 2km and it doesn’t look too bad. Then...
Izal! Eek. [ATTACH]
And if the pork pie is a bit off, gonna need access to the toilet compartment for the LOVE flush! Getting my coat…
Just ask Matt P… I’ve been making a nuisance of myself about getting a buffet car in the game since the first UK Classic route appeared. He will...
Maybe part of the issue there is that the survey results are rarely, if ever, made public. So there I am frantically rearranging preferences to...
Definitely with you on this. It seems ludicrous to post a release article - including price - without actually saying when we can get our grubby...
Isn't that the 104? They were more common around South Manchester though definitely worked to Blackpool. In fact I have memories of cramming into...
I wasn't aware TSC used Simugraph. Never really delved into that side but aren't physics etc. derived from a combination of blueprint and custom...
I wouldn't be too sure about Roadcraft. The demo wouldn't run beyond a sideshow on my PC. Turns out it needs a minimum 6Gb graphics card. So I'm...
You could also have a small number of passengers travelling with dogs on a lead. Good one for conductor mode, "Get that mutt off the seat."
It would benefit from some Mark Three sleeping cars for the night trains. The seated accommodation on those tended to be Mark II's both aircon and...
I will have to test the alpha save game again, see if they have pushed a silent update.
That certainly sealed the deal, for sure.
The 642's have been noted as a but sluggish by those who know them, particularly at the top end. I quite like them, though. The gear change...
As someone who hates driving from cab cars, I have to say being able to run WCMLoS in both directions from the loco, is delightful.
TSW5 may have been "free" for a while, but as just touched on in the JT Class 86 thread it has one of the most expensive DLC policies of any game....
Not just on console. The PC also needs a much wider range of graphics options, allowing us to optimise or tame things to our taste.
Many current DTG routes couldn't work in the same way that SimRail does. Many modern routes are controlled by large signalling centres with a...
I'll raise you a Class 25 on that hand...
I watched a YT clip the other day, might have been RichyRails, the Cardiff version sounded different but still not right to my ears. That throaty,...
I think the best that can be said for Conductor Mode at present is that it adds (maybe) something to do while travelling as a passenger.
Disagree. The whole point of these routes was to encapsulate the last days of BR Classic along with sectorisation creeping in.
It would be nice but reading between the lines I get the vibe SHG are either no longer interested in doing routes, or haven't got anyone on staff...
IMHO this would have been more appealing than the S-Bahn we are getting. Problem likely to be, DTG don't like doing sub surface stations die to...
Ah I saw that but resisted the temptation to post the obvious response!
Plus it was a bit of thread hijack/drift given the 91's etc are ECML and this is specifically about an 80s era WCML add on... :)
