The issue of length is simply an issue of money- every additional mile of track means that much more trackside equipment, signals, signage,...
Sure. But I don't think that the Suggestion Box creates a contractual obligation!
I would venture no. Layers are built into routes when they are created, which means that older routes necessarily don't have layers built into...
I don't think dynamic weather would; in fact, it's really a CPU process to insert a "change weather state" routine into the clock cycle. The...
Actually, I'm pretty sure the stream said that there will be AI-only regionals just to populate the yards and provide bahnhof traffic
Yes, but remember, to English speakers W is pronounced "Wuh;" The German W is "Vuh" ----------------- ü: close to French oe, for those who know...
The difference is, I understand that my requests are just that; I am not so delusional as to mentally convert them into imaginary "promises" by...
That's more the Armstrong Powerhouse approach
Absolutely. I feel like I'm being penalized because I am interested in both El Cajon and the German route, but not in a slightly bigger SEHS.
All my old Railfan pics used to be accessible from the TSW main page, along with news etc etc. Now all that is gone, just the blurb page for...
There's a difference between getting hair extensions, and buying a new, longer wig.
Just to clarify: The TSW2 version of SEHS is and always will be the old "small" version. The TSW3 version of SEHS is and always will be the new...
Tell me, what ten features have DTG actually promised us? And, no, I don't mean desired features which users have just been banging on about like...
That part, at least, is untrue; the Preservation Crew updates will come out for both V2 and V3.
Well, it sort of is, if one wants to continue with this hobby- since any future new route that does interest one will only be playable under TSW3,...
They are a corporation (which have been legal persons for centuries; otherwise they couldn't own property, enter into contracts etc etc)
Yes. Very much. "Extensions" (which exist for TSC) are separate add-ons for existing routes, "DLC for DLC." You own Route A; you then have the...
It is a reworking and enlargement of the old SEHS route. It is NOT a plug-in module (call it "hair extensions" for rail)
Each route would have to be reworked individually to take advantage of the new systems, one at a time. The new lighting, in particular, would...
Why on earth are you expressing disappointment over features DTG never, ever said were coming?
No, it isn't. It is a reworking of the old route, overhauled and made bigger. An "extension" would be a separate module which is added to a...
The new SEHS is not an extension.
That was actually a suggestion I made quite a while back- not only the 'null depot' as a home route for locos, but even to do it with a version of...
I know I'm repeating another post, but that lower pic is uncharacteristically green; it was taken after recent substantial rain. Most of the year...
Really depends on the time of year. The bottom pic was taken after substantial late winter rain; by midsummer everything is brown.
The three base routes + Spirit of Steam
I must say I'm rather distressed at this marketing approach, which IMO could have been handled like Rush Hour last year- the functional core...
I'm afraid they're just AI-only mobile scenery, to populate the stations at either end. The SKW is a purely high-speed track; regionals and...
It isn't a route extension. It's a route, just longer than the old version which it replaces
Apparently the Kassel-Würzbug line is a high-speed only line, so there is no red passenger traffic on it at all; the other locos are just to...
Actually the ICE1 is almost nothing like the ICE3 aside from being fast and white. It’s not even an EMU, it’s push-pull loco hauled like the Class 43
All right, I am confused. I have TSW2 and a whole bunch of DLC on Steam. Apparently there is no Steam discount for the Standard Edition of TSW3,...
AIUI, TSW3 will only have one SEHS, the new one. The old one will be auto-upgraded (but still hanging around as a TSW2 route, if you want it).
Well, yes, TSW3 really does have a completely revamped lighting system
You mean, like Sand Patch in TSW2?
Yikes!
It's kind of like having bought a 45 rpm single and then getting upset when it's released as an album track.
Yes.
Wow. Disappointed because it doesn't include things it was never going to include????
I doubt it will be nearly the same- for one thing, it's all still UE4.26, there's no engine changeover involved.
The purchase options put me I think at a disadvantage: I own SEHS (and the 465) already, as well as SoS - but since I probably will want both El...
Bummer
Well, the moans are already starting about the content- and I'll admit, that aspect is underwhelming: SEHS made into what it should have been at...
Tomorrow.
No Alps??? :(
ICE1, Javelin (but not on SEHS), and BNSF-liveried ES44 featured, so these must be the bundle routes.
Specifically, it's the Schwangau (Swan Valley), on the Austrian border around Füssen. The castle in the center-left is Hohenschwangau; at far left...
Staff developers work on what they are told to work on.
Not many Alps around Frankfurt
Afraid not.
