In the section on US signals you say "There's signalling charts for several railroad operators on the internet, but in my experience they're hard...
1) Headlights belong to the loco, not the route. 2) The BR 612 headlights are very, very hard and time-consuming to make; they use a completely...
I'm not so sure. I think rather they are going to launch the summer bundle under the group heading Spirit of Steam and there will be one each...
Not Paul Pavlinovich. Paul Jackson, president and CEO of Dovetail Games.
Careful, there, you could easily work the poor hamster to death!
Matt has addressed this several times. From a technical perspective it would be quite easy to do. However, from a legal perspective it would be...
In general, I don't release the PZB/Sifa/AWS/Alerter button until the on-screen acknowledgement pops up; a tap often doesn't register.
And wouldn't exist for another two years in 1958. What I'm saying is that the game's 09 is close enough to an 08 to serve. Just pretend it's an...
Mind you, most cuts the 363 is shoving around are light enough and slow enough you can rely on the loco brake alone, which is much easier (in US...
On SPG as just about any other route, you won’t see them lower from the cab because they’re down before you come into visual range. You have to be...
TSW passenzombies just ain't that bright. What gets me is passengers unconcernedly standing in the open in pouring rain, just two steps from shelter!
AIUI, in the UK there are no prescribed speeds for double and single yellows; it's up to the driver to use his best judgment. It varies with...
All of those are desirable; some are do-able. I don't know if longer setup times are possible without making a new timetable- and they aren't...
Um, no. New routes don't add layers to older routes. Only vice-versa.
Long mainline freight routes in the US typically run at 70. The exceptions are curvy mountain routes like Sand Patch or the former Clinchfield...
IIRC, the red-light-at-start bug wasn't present in TSW2020; it was the TSW2 port that created it.
This is sort of a unique case; it really doesn't apply to any other DLC. Whether this bug affects you is really a matter of driving style, which...
I reckon it will be three steam routes, UK, US and DE. I see the schedule as being Harlem in April, Liverpool in June and the next two to follow...
Passenger density should be addressed, because apparently a part of the standard PC overhaul going forward will be Rush Hour passengers on all...
Just from the perspective of US heavy freight, I really want a future iteration of TSW to model coupler strain and failure (and brake fade)
The Gronk was diesel-electric
Sherman is practically unplayable on my old PC; I can manage it at ridiculous low FPS with a vanilla .ini and everything turned down to Low.
Basically an auto-fireman, since the Sonic Screwdriver has a "Stoke" button.
The problem is that the newer routes simply have a Lot More Stuff going on in them than the older PC routes do.
To the 08 yes; but I think the green WSR 09 is close enough for what we're doing here. Not perfect- but a better match than running 422s on...
Then you lead a charmed life.
At that time I believe the very few 40s (1st production April '58) were being trialed in East Anglia.
Microsoft achieved market dominance originally with DOS, then Windows 3.1, then Win 95. All three were LOVE (I know- I was an A+-certified tech...
Ah. Yes, I see.
I think it is. If you start off with, say, the snow accumulation at zero but precipitation level high (in subzero temps), the snow will build up...
The problem with that is that over time it blows the pressure in the air reservoir, locking up the train permanently. That is The Bug on Bakerloo.
A very nice guide; however, the signal diagrams don't distinguish between steady and flashing lights
Ah, Bach. "He doth bestride the world like a colossus...."
One of the nicer little bonuses of my area is a restored 1920s cinema in all its gilt garishness, complete with its original Wurlitzer which is...
If it's a paid DLC, then, yes, an 0-4-0 or 0-6-0 tank engine is the way to go. I was trying to think of something which could be included with...
I just realised something I should have long ago, and now I feel rather daft: since the QA team are company-wide across all franchises, it means...
First you need to get Raging Lightning's TSW Livery Manager, *a freeware app that lets you import and export livery files from and to your hard...
The Powering America bug is well-known; do a forum search to find a couple of workarounds. Basically it takes some diddling to convince the game...
I agree. There are MUCH more interesting UK routes to be built. Only if this hypothetical route ran to Oxford AND had the Greenford, Windsor and...
Two different questions. Train length is limited by processing power. Route length is limited by the amount of money and time available.
I don't think a timetable rewrite is going to happen. It is a LOT of work, since it basically has to be built from nought, and only warranted in...
Well, when you do see foreign traction on CSX trains, more often than not they are Norfolk Southern.
Supposedly fixed with the Rush Hour passenger system.
Did you restore from a savegame?
Agreed. Also Clinchfield, with all its beautifully rendered branches. Contrast LGV: all that length, boring AF
In reversing moves, often the dispatcher doesn't realize which way you're going until you start to move.
Only shows at night. But I turned it back off because of the framerate hit.
MSB can in a way be seen as a "complete route", not in terms of the services but because it represents the reason for the line, to cut off a bight...
I was lucky enough to be able to hear this one, gratis, every evening if I wanted [IMG] Harrison & Harrison, 1934, enlarged 1950 and 1968. Some...
Harlem, yes, I think last Jan/Feb, along with everything else. Liverpool maybe, but I get the feeling that as the first steam route it may have...
Separate names with a comma.
