Compared to the current practice of offering routes with just one train, usually a push and run cracker box ( emu ), the early routes for TSWx,...
As I promised myself, I picked up MML on " patch day ". Looking forward to giving it a good workout tomorrow. Pleasant surprise: bought the...
I think we would be naive to think that a new owner of a company would not have influence over production, pricing and personnel policies with its...
You nailed it pal. Excellent post.
Yes, different manufacturer but with similar mechanical gearbox. I find the 101 fun to drive, using a Raildriver. More finicky with a keyboard,...
What we really need to hear is that the patches and updates mentioned have imminent release dates. Preferable to any new route announcements....
I'm sorry, but, while I'm very impressed, as are most of us, with the apparently huge effort that they have made to bring MML up to scratch, this...
I agree. If DTG are going to celebrate a milestone for a loco, they need to offer something meaningful, like a scenario pack covering the routes...
If you're talking TSW3, then I'd go with Barstow ( around 1 sqm ) Other than that, biggest is Bailey in North Platte, Nebraska. ( 5 sqm )
This thread has really gone down the toilet! Time to flush it away??
However, the Metra logo was quickly restored by modders in The Racetrack. That would be difficult, though not impossible, in TSW.
I'm happy to have a large ocean separating me from this rekindled cultural, olfactory and culinary conflict between two of our former rivals....
Ah, the " Ghost Horn of Sand Patch Grade " has returned. It was reported a few years ago with the SD40-2 on SPG. The horn would remain blaring,...
I was thinking the same thing, probably with recycled Gevo and SD40-2. It's one of my favorites from TSC.
They really need to announce the imminent release of a bunch of patches and updates, not just for MML ( done by SHG anyway), but for...
Well, I hope the increased sales for the " new version " make it less of a " labor of love. " My finger is on the buy button the moment the...
Excellent news!! I usually hit the save button every 10-15 minutes, but this was a reliable failsafe in case I forgot and ran a red or jumped a...
And yet once in a while someone steps up and does something really creative and challenging with scenarios. Clinchfield comes to mind, though that...
Oh Riiight. I really should check the drawer for those sharper knives. :D
Ooh are there really 10,000. That many eh? I've only counted 18 so far. Guess I'm not reading the forum as thoroughly as I should. Oh, and only...
Much as I like Mainz- Koblenz, it disappointed me yesterday. I ran the " Jump Around" scenario, which promised a run down the line to Mainz, "...
There were probably some Pennsylvania, NYC and Milwaukee Road steamers that were quite capable of going above 126mph and likely did on level track...
Just ran that scenario again. After closing the doors there is no further objective, but there is a red signal indication. I just drove on towards...
Yes, I think I remember that too. But as I recall I just carried on driving from the station and the instruction about the fallen tree eventually...
Oh dear!! It looks like all the posters with honest/constructive opinions and decent spelling and grammar are about to be swallowed up by the "...
Lots of us have completed this scenario. It's really not that difficult to figure out. After all, the solution is in the title. A little gumption...
The more Jane posts about this update, the closer we become to a pack of Pavlov's dogs. :D:D
Yes, haven't been over to London in a while, but that's how I remember it - a full circle. I'm curious though, was it bi- directional and how much...
You'd say that to someone on a first date? I'd like to be a fly on that wall. :D
The Circle Line from a few years back would be my choice. Traveling in an endless loop, how would the service end? I suppose you could stop at...
I think I can safely disappoint you by saying that the vast majority of players are simply jumping in the cab and driving according to the "...
I've been waiting to buy this route until the patch/update is released. ( SHG call it both ways ). I'm not too concerned how much is fixed/added...
I was talking about NYT which is waiting for a patch. Last time I drove on BPE, some weeks ago, signals were fine, though I still had a hard time...
The sooner this thread is shut down the better. No substantive content here.
Back in April, 2021, DTG first previewed Cane Creek from SHG. Two months later, the preview stream was postponed by mutual consent so that SHG...
Am I being naive or just having a senior moment, but that's the first time I remember DTG saying flat out that some significant issues may never...
Hm, I'm not sure that any emu is " a joy to drive ", since they're all pretty much " push and run ". Give me a 1st or 2nd gen dmu any day....
True. Like many others here, I started playing with trains when I was still in diapers. Many decades later, still playing with trains ( see my...
Me too. I really want to enjoy this route and the timetable is being fixed. But driving it without the in- cab signalling is not fun. So I've...
While your point is well- taken, dtg. jan and the other forum moderators are not in a position to " instruct " anyone to do anything. They can...
I found the route to be well- modeled on the whole and, as far as emu's go ( which isn't very far ), the 323 is not bad. But, after a couple of A...
In a perfect world, where every player is a responsible and civil adult, multiplayer might have a chance. In the world as we know it, multiplayer...
Actually, and I may be thinking too simplistically here, but since all the distant signals are shown on the 2-d map, would it be very difficult to...
It would certainly have to be optional. We can't forget that the vast majority of TSW players are casual gamers who would have little interest in...
I don't know, there have been a few odd posts, but, given a thread of 24 pages and almost 1200 entries, I think on the whole it's been a pretty...
It's a fine line isn't it between what is a fix to bring a route or loco up to a generally acceptable standard which should be freeware and, on...
Yes, if TSW4 comes at some point next year, there will likely still be issues to be addressed in the current iteration. We'll probably be going...
I think that DTG assume that most players use the HUD to read upcoming signals rather than observing line side aspects and most players have only...
Yes, those screenshots do illustrate the problem pretty well. When you combine the general lighting issue with the awful ( in some cases ) eye...
Exactly mirrors my own experience. I was a little concerned when I saw that Steam reinstall, but it didn't affect the game. You have to wonder why...
