To get back to the exact topic of the thread, I don’t think there will ever be the full route for either. It is possible to do it but the time it...
There is a difference. It’s a small difference. The angle of the top beam is greater in the screenshot of the game. That’s the only major...
I started a couple of boxcars in SPG. They are just plain colours for now and I haven’t got round to putting the lettering on them. I see plenty...
I suppose it’s possible with the next gen but still unlikely as I see it. That’s true.
There’s not much processing power left after all the train physics and track and scenery whizzing past to do a fancy jaw-dropping sky. It’s better...
Give them a chance. The new consoles are only just out and people are banging on DTG’s gates with pitchforks in hand. They don’t have to give the...
It’s popular but it’s never going to happen so no point supporting it. To take advantage of the branch lines there would have to be extra services...
The reduced timetable isn’t the only difference with the console version of GWE. There is the drastically reduced number of AI trains in...
I can’t get TS2021 on a PS4 and the argument that these routes are already available there and therefore shouldn’t be made for TSW was your...
WCML Crewe to Liverpool seems like the obvious choice. As Sam said in the same stream there aren’t that many station approaches that can rival...
Get Trainz... the Australian train simulator if your “once it’s in one it’s in them all” argument stands up.
I got TSW for what it contained at the time, not what it may contain in the future. I knew there weren’t steam trains in it from looking on this...
In five years’ time we will be just one more update away from steam trains and people will still be asking for LIRR to be extended to Ronkonkoma...
Oh, I’m certain he is a nice person and I like him and his videos but I would happily let him join my club of grumpy old men, not that he’s...
I struggle to see a difference, but I think it has something to do with the confusion that the game has with the way the trains point in TVL....
You are out of luck for overtaking on this route as it is for the high speed trains only. The only trains you will see are more TGVs coming the...
Multiplayer could come at any time to TSW2. Nobody knows when. It could be announced on Monday or it could be two years or more. Anyone who says...
We don’t do that kind of thing here and suggesting it on the forum won’t find you any friends either.
You can usually tell if you want to buy a route from other people’s reviews and videos and the forum as well as the live streams DTG do. As for...
I have spent the last few sessions over a couple of days in the SPG continuous switching scenario happily sorting wagons into rakes of the same...
Very good point. Not everybody will want to figure it all out for themselves or watch live streams like with some/all of the recent stuff.
Are you saying it shouldn’t be in TSW forum (which it should) or it shouldn’t be in Off Topic sub forum (which it can be) because it’s actually a...
Just to be pedantic, it’s not really an acronym unless you can say it as a word, like NASA. If you say the letters instead, N T P it’s not an...
Indeed. Always worth a watch.
The 155 is a must for the German routes. It’s just so good. Best purchase I ever made in TSW.
I watched a video of this route from TS with a certain well liked grumpy gentleman who started the video by saying something like “This route is...
There’s an even worse one in RRO. Seemingly hundreds of Wuppertal to Wuppertal-Steinbeck services, less than a kilometre in length each, and you...
Sand Patch still has scenarios that can’t be completed and a problem with the dynamic brakes on the AC4400 amongst other things. It also has a new...
Yeah, looks like we’re in for a bit of a wait. I’m taking my time going through the journey mode, savouring the route, but I thought the next...
I’ve noticed that the Train Simulator forum titles have been changing to be the same as the TSW forum titles. Can we have some way of...
Don’t use the second one that’s for TS not TSW. This is the TSW2020 manual which has all the correct controls. Other manuals are available on the...
...or use a keyboard for the number keys to access the cameras.
I agree it should be as realistic as possible. The thing here is that the catenary is the correct kind it’s just the angles (which get adjusted on...
Catenary poles load at about the same distance as the shadow draw on console. They fade in quite nicely but you do notice that they are missing in...
They could rebuild it but I don’t think they will. It wasn’t a particularly good route and the only thing going for it is that they obviously have...
You don’t have to compare it to real life. If you’re not comparing it to photographs it looks fine. It will look fine while you are driving the...
I can see it’s not exactly the same and my point was it is close enough for a computer game. For the very small number of people who are bothered...
If the current services are getting snarled up and blocking each other’s path on single track sections, I don’t think adding more services is...
That makes sense. I’d read a specification/standards document somewhere which stated maximum light levels for the lights and was initially...
I’ve sat in the passenger seat after briefly sitting in the driver’s seat to see what the service was and the AI operated the train but all the...
It’s choice. There are calls for extensions for nearly every route. There aren’t many routes to start with. If the first five routes made had been...
Cement mixer is just the name of one of the scenarios and you will have passed over the in-game start point for it. Scenario markers I think...
I’m no expert on catenary either but I can see it’s a tiny bit different. One has an angle of 28 deg and the other has an angle of 29 deg. The...
When there is something to announce they will announce it. That could be tomorrow or next year. If it’s just about backwards compatibility then it...
I thought it was the other way round, the bright headlight is for daytime running and the dim one for night running.
That’s incredible.
Interesting article. If auto generating scenery is going to speed up the process of route building then that increases the range of routes that...
