186 km of nothing but bridges and tunnels. The route across the middle of Austria would require much, much more intensive modeling.
I think that there is an absolutely enormous divide in motivation between passenger and freight railroads. Passenger rail depends on, well,...
200 km. Yeah, right.
Yes, that's pretty much it. Although on modern systems, a sequential electronic delay can be programmed for heavier trains. It's an air brake...
Actually, I am seeing this as a positive development - "We can't get a good handle on steam, so we are planning to outsource it to people who know...
Or the opposite. I'm reading the steam statements on the stream as meaning that DTG are actively looking to outsource steam development to third...
If DTG have any commercial sense, they will do a Railjet (WITH cab car, dammit) as a loco DLC which layers into Semmeringbahn, Rosenheim, and any...
Pretty simple: draw distance (and especially shadow draw distance) kills performance. One of the most brutal loads on a GPU. If you're running a...
I wonder what they mean by that. Properly it would be the original red/beige coaches inherited from the TEE- would they go that far? Or in this...
Semmeringbahn: 1) Will there also be freight services? 2) Why is there no Amz coach to go along with the Bmz?
The Semmeringbahn almost made me very happy- but what's with the rolling stock cheeseparing? What accountant decided DTG could save £7.53 by not...
And this is the thing which is so frustrating about DTG- the lack of attention to detail, when even a little more effort, a little more polish, a...
Thinking in terms of what the WSR revamp really included (improved scenery and lighting, new timetable using existing rolling stock) I would like...
Why on earth would you use full throttle reversing into a siding? When you're backing your car into a parking spot, do you floor the accelerator?
3 didn't
It's a diesel, so no tap changer
Add to that the fact that moving from 3 to 4 destroyed nearly every mod, leaving us stuck with vanilla again. A few now have been recreated for...
That's going to suck for people with slow Internet
AFAICT, the game never enforces HP2s, except when the indication is hard-coded as line speed. One of course still has to reduce to the PZB...
That's a valid point. IK rather enjoy scenarios that have you do something unusual and interesting. But if it's nothing but a standard timetable...
Cyberpunk 2077. In-house engine. Not buying OTS in no way guarantees avoiding bugs.
More likely it was planned, akin to the Hollywood practice (until COVID) of not releasing a movie to cable or streaming (or, back in the day, on...
And long after, in yards, since frequently for switching ops they didn't bother hooking up the air hoses
TSW: Voyager, TSW: DS9, TSW: Special Victims Unit.....
Query: as a stopgap for those of us who can't run ultra settings, which route's dynamic .ini setup works best with the revised WSR? I've tried...
I'm not sure that's the case. The released routes we get are baked, and basically can't be disassembled for editing; all we can do is add or...
GWE is effectively the oldest route in the game, since Sand Patch got what amounted to a complete rebuild for TSW2
The instrument light switch is labeled "Desk Light"??????
Century of Steam is also built on Unity, and the prerelease demo footage looks absolutely brilliant
Nope, they're all nonfunctional except the taillight and headcode box switches. They work on the blue NTP version, but not this one,.
I think the answer to that would be to find a TP who would be willing as part of the arrangement to overhaul the steam mechanics from the ground...
The green 47 has far fewer interactable controls-- including no way to turn on instrument lights
You need to close both ejectors
That's correct; the steam timetable is a steam timetable. Whoulda thunk it?
There were a set of fantastic mods for US diesels that restored builder's plates and all the gauge branding, which DTG had to leave out for IP...
IIRC, diesels required different cab cars from electric locos.
Personally I think Clinchfield is the best. It does have some issues, but the challenge and variety of industrial services over some really rough...
There are three answers. The "correct" one is to sound the whistle twice, the standard banking alert. You can also give up and uncouple the 8F...
"Unlimited" (actually 35k) layers in Livery Designer. No, 1000 isn't enough. https://www.trainsim.cz/?mod=article&showid=2491&query=
Wonderful mods, indespensable for TSW2/3-- but don't work in 4, dammit.
If they want to be accurate, they would give the 120s (with 101 sub) the ICs, and put the IRs behind 103s (both beige/crimson and Orient red).
Although the ICE 3/3M can do 330, it's only ever done it on French LGV trackage on the Paris run. No track in Germany is built to 330 standard.
There is never a January Roadmap. Squeezed out by the holidays and Railfest
I can see a 140+freight (replacing the not impossible but very rare 110 freight consists). The 140 was THE ubiquitous DBB electric loco. The 120,...
IIRC, DB made test conversions of 243/143s to both 140 and 160 standard, but decided the latter were too expensive. All the 112s were new-build,...
The holdup with the 143, isn't power, it's the bogies; they aren't considered to be safe on standard radius curves over 120. Swap out the bogies...
Separate names with a comma.
