And that's great, options are great, in all honesty I have no problem with having the option to make the HUD as powerful as you want. But if your...

Trust me, a plain old delay would've been a far better PR blunder to fall into then anything they've done in the past 24 hours. No delay has ever...

You have MSFS coming out on Xbox, that hasn't stopped them from making powerful dev tools for the PC platform for use by third parties. You can...

What about Run 8? They're a much smaller title, and yet most of their routes are $40 despite the smaller install base. And their loco packs, which...

Considering that the Switch and Game Deck are way large than most portable devices, and you're holding it fairly close to your face it would be fine.

They shortened a route, and instead of putting that front and center and explaining why they hid it in the fine print. It's hard to believe that...

I have to ask who at DTG thought doing three routes at once was a good idea? Everyone was raising that concern the moment it was announced, and...

The scenario I'm suggesting is literally never looking outside of the cab, yes you could ignore the outside world in TS Classic for considerable...

The F3 HUD I think is fine, vastly prefer it to the one in TSW, but it's hard to say it isn't big. I bring up Breath of the Wild again, or even...

TS Classic's HUD might take lots of space, but at least it warrants that a bit considering how much info it has. TSW's HUD while a tad less...

Technically they absolutely could make a new train sim that works with all the old TS content. Open Rails was built from the ground up, and was...

Sony aren't even fully committing to PS5 yet as shown by them delaying God of War Ragnarok and Gran Turismo 7 to make PS4 versions of them. It is...

It makes it much clearer which one's older, which is pretty important I think, also means a post isn't gonna be dated when DTG inevitably bumps up...

Well one of the guys at Searchlight said they got contacted by DTG to try and get them to do sounds for Sand Patch. They replied, only for DTG to...

DTG prioritize salability over capability, there's lots of five mile terminal and heritage routes that they could likely do easily within the time...

The main route assets (which includes the UP stock) are the same across both regions, the BNSF engine isn't. So in order to allow for different...

Excuse me, what do you mean by starting? Donner Pass was 10 years ago, and DTG have had that reputation for basically that long. Possibly longer...

Yes, because by default the world only contains water, so not like you're gonna be reducing file size much further from there. I've edited the...

No they wouldn't, there's ways around needing everyone needing to have unnecessary assets. For example X-Plane 11 by default has a bare minimum...

You'd have to have the worst programmers on Earth to have a flipping HUD element take a sizeable amount of performance. Seriously, I've heard of...

The core of their audience ain't buying a new one every year, they're biyearly at best, if not longer. And their products usually get at least...

If you do it right it can, there's lots of games where they largely make money just by keeping the game relevant by updating it. Even if you don't...

There are many whistle codes on the books, but most are obsolete and are rarely used today, in modern contexts there's three that are heavily...

Neither of the ES44ACs (It's DC for heaven's sake DTG) link to a store page from what I can tell, only the core route itself does, which seems to...

Nick Y's post is pretty darn good, but I would like to offer my two cents on a few points. I don't get why this would be a con by any reasonable...

DTG have said that AI improvements are minimal, the routes are just better suited for the TSW dispatcher. So something like Bakerloo or LIRR will...

Personally I would grab the Albula Line, it's a fantastic narrow gauge line, very scenic and unique. There's also quite a few addon locos for it,...

Assuming you don't already have it Sherman Hill's the best US route in this department in my mind for a few reasons. It comes with six...

I only have that route because it was bundled with TSW, it and NEC never really appealed to me before grabbing them, and playing them didn't...

FYI for anyone who doesn't want to deal with those bright green textures recommend you replace the Grass008_Wi_A to H texture files (Located in...

I always found it extremely odd that they never bothered to finish and release it. As it was supposedly in the final stages of development, which...

Games don't tend to get complete engine upgrades very often, if at all, and for good reason. Even games like Euro Truck are still built off the...

My post wasn't directed towards you, it was aimed solely at steammaster.

If you check that guys page he's actually a storm chaser, those St Louis railfans were probably a piece of cake for him to deal with compared to...

The GP30 includes a boxcar, and has one in a very similar paint scheme to the ones they run with for their steam excursion. Well the bog standard...

I echo what NEC Railfan says, New York - New Haven's the better option for getting the ACS-64. It's longer, there's way more mods and scenarios...

What about train length though? TSW so far maxes out at 50 in most cases, with a single instance of 60 I believe. Now I've not counted how many...

I'm gonna be a bit nitpicky, you're correct in about 99.9 percent of cases, but some older equipment are exempt from this. For example all of UP's...

Not a route for everyone, but I'd recommend it in a general sense, the biggest reason I'd say is the hilly nature of it. A lot of US routes have...

The part around Bakersfield I believe is around 60ish, and I think the portion around Mojave is also fairly high speed for a bit. But I think if...

There's a group that figured out how to get FSX working in VR, works pretty well from what I understand, and that's even older than TS. Now it...

That's a shocker for me, but good to hear and glad to be proven wrong! Look forward to seeing them. :D

I'm betting not, I find it telling that they show good pictures of all the stock with the route but the SD70ACE. Indeed I'm not even sure if they...

I played the version in Trainz 12 and I strongly disagree, the route might not be the length of say the Milepost routes, but it's pretty darn long...

I'm gonna guess roughly on par with the ES44's we're all familiar with at this point, maybe with the TSW sound set if we're lucky. Speaking of TSW...

Generally agree, although I think the Dash 9's fairly likely if it's set in the SP given that they were some of the newest power on it. So it...

I think they'll ditch the current Deluxe bundle with ECW for TSW2 and replace it with one that has Rush Hour.

Might very well be true for those that already have it, the more interesting thing is how it will impact future sales of it. 3DTrains is kind of...

I can understand that it would be a pain to do, and moving a file in and out isn't that difficult. But good to hear it's at least doable should...

The only thing that would make this better is the ability to still have the CalTrain version without needing remove the CSX one, which I'm sure...
