Cricket ( otherwise known as watching paint dry :)) might return to the Olympics in Los Angeles in 2028, after an absence of 120 years. (They're...
I agree, it may sound like fun to floor the throttle and go hell bent for leather, but it doesn't feel satisfying in the end as much as running a...
Yes, of course it's possible. In fact I believe last week's stream was originally planned for Xbox, but something prevented that build from being...
TS has a UP SD40-2 festooned with the Stars and Stripes celebrating the 200th Anniversary of American independence. So political and cultural...
Absolutely. I think many of us have been harping on about the lighting issue for long enough for DTG to get the picture. CRR and CCR are...
Much too nationalistic for me anymore. The medal count per country is all that seems to matter. It's not supposed to be that way, but money and...
No need to give Detroit a bad rap either. I was there recently, just before the pandemic, and I found it to be a unique city. The downtown is one...
I personally find it very annoying. Somebody at Skyhook obviously thought it was a good idea. There is an audio patch comming for the route, I...
Boy, if we get all of that, I'll go back to drinking Arnold Palmers for a month. :)
Yes, I see how frustrating it is. I don't have a solution but I will say this. When I'm running a service or scenario, I save about every 10...
If you can. I usually don't have the time frame or, frankly, the attention span to complete a 2 hour plus SPG or CRR service in one go ( not to...
I don't expect complete accuracy from a SIM that costs less than $30 ( or $10 in this case), just a decent representation of the landscape and...
I honestly can't remember when it was last on the Roadmap if it ever was, but I haven't seen it recently. The problem is, it works fine for some...
This really needs to be right on the front burner and fixed before release. How in the world did this get through all the testing, QA and beta?...
Of course as soon as those unbranded routes appeared, some enterprising people made branding mods available to the TS community. Not of course...
It would have been nice to have the Foxboro branch. I think that's the only other branch that could have been added.
Well, if John Kennedy was right, "a rising tide lifts all boats", the optimization allowed by UE 4.26 should benefit all platforms.
I had a teacher once who had a really hard time with English place names. Trafalgar was one of her "favorites" along with any places ending in...
He probably just stepped away for a bathroom break!
I would imagine an experienced train crew could probably get it down with some accuracy after doing it for a while. The only question is what...
It really would be quite pointless to build the game based on an engine upgrade that won't release until at least Q1 2022 and will take most of...
Thanks, Paul. I have watched the video but I guess I missed that tip. I'll check it out again.
Indeed they do. The wheelchair ramps were specifically pointed out during the stream.
It was mentioned that the plan is to separate the core update from the Boston Sprinter download, so that the update will be "out of the way"...
Noticed that too. Can't be that difficult to fix before release. It does look odd, to say the least.
I think I noticed the same mistake in the highway lane markings as we saw on Cane Creek. The double yellow lines should not be present in both...
Yes, there is something wrong with those cars. And some of the station textures. Well, there's still 2 weeks before release and there are those...
I still wish we were getting the 421 slam door. The great thing about BML is that it's been 3rd rail for what 80 years? So it's virtually timeless...
Well, I never! Who'd have thunk it? I guess I'm not the sharpest knife in the drawer after all. :)
But still above the USA. Ah, now I know why we have fewer routes than Germany and the UK! :D
Actually, I'll be on vacation that week of August 10th, so I would appreciate it if the Roadmap stream could be postponed until the following week.
Season passes are a very flexible sales tool. They can be based on time (eg. annual, semi annual), region, type of routes or locos like Rush Hour,...
No-one is seriously suggesting that "Summer " in this context is anywhere but the Northern Hemisphere. I hope you were joking. Edit: The more...
Well, I think there's a world of difference between a season pass and a subscription. Rather like owning or leasing a car, or apartment. Each has...
Highly unlikely, I would think, at least in any detail. It might predispose DTG into doing things they're not ready or able to do. There really is...
I like the idea of a season pass, but I'm not clear on how it would work in practice. Because I'm in the habit of buying all dlc when they're...
Everything.
Well, they have to be certified as energy efficient, at least. And it's not just California, other states with energy problems are doing the same...
Can't disagree with that, although social media has a lot to do with it, too.
True, and that's one reason why, even in broad daylight, they have full beam headlights, flashing ditch lights and loud bells. Even with all that,...
Looking through Epic's documentation, I think there's still a lot that can be done in terms of TSW's environment within UE 4.26. Improvements in...
Sorry, matjamca, your thread has been seriously derailed. To get back on topic, I have to say that your protest, though well taken, has also been...
Me too. It was hard to wrench my finger away from that icon when I read your post. :D
I'm looking forward to it too, but good luck with the chat room. I've taken to switching it off recently. If I want to surround myself with 13...
UE 4.26 has only been officially released for 7 or 8 months and, going by what Epic says is possible, DTG have not exploited even close to the...
Speaking of CPU's and optimization etc., you know we often talk about the difference between PC's and consoles in terms of horsepower. But we...
And yet some routes, SPG for example, seem to have adequate ambient lighting at night. The German routes seem to do better, also. This is just...
I think it was said quite definitively on stream that they couldn't currently include children, elderly people or people with canes, walkers etc...
There are several elephants in the room, but headlights and environmental lighting might be the two biggest. We've been talking about them but we...
