The uncoupling handles on the loco are those two big yellow loops, easy to grab. To avoid rolling backwards into the cars and re-coupling, you...
It seems that headlights are a loco-by-loco thing, not a core or route upgrade. The 612 has great headlights because Maik made it with great...
Are the Sherman Hill autoracks a new model, different from the Sand Patch ones? I notice yours have the flat logo panels on the sides.
The Class 101 gets a pair of Christmas-tree bulbs
I've turned off Windows auto-update for that reason (also, to avoid downloading MS bloatware); I start the DL manually when I go to bed.
My opinion of German efficiency just went down a little. I figured DB fined drivers for every second over 30.....
To the point I have memorized how many seconds each train takes to close doors (on an Electrostar, six) so that I can start the closing cycle that...
While that's true, those usually are covered by delayed departures/lengthy loading times in stations, not extra time between stations.
That sounds more like Sifa off.
That doesn't work when there are different liveries. The VVO Dostos belong on Riesa-Dresden, but nowhere else. With the upcoming package we will...
There is no LZB on the Dresden-Chemnitz line.
LZB is only installed on a few lines. Dresden Chemnitz certainly isn't one of them.
A heavy train isn't going to stop with just intitial application- or at least, it will take a loooong time.
AIUI, Creators Club is completely cross-platform: PS4, PS5, XB One, XB X, PC, all can upload and share.
I had really hoped DTG had cured themselves of this bad practice, but apparently not. MEMO TO DTG: Stop using AI autorunning to set the...
According to the patch notes, the dispatcher phone was enabled on the CSX SD40, GP38 and AC4400- I don't recall if that upgrade was applied to the...
Light weathering "should go quickly." Yeah, right. The thing about weathering is that it's like eating potato chips [crisps]- it's always "just...
Mine was 200MB compressed, 1.3GB on disk. Must be general housekeeping stuff underlying Chemnitz; none of my .pak files were updated.
That's a universal German safety feature; ANY brake application (not counting AFB-controlled dynamic brakes) locks out the throttle, which has to...
Great idea, but as for "next"- I would rather see (a) coupler failure and train separation modeled (the real Bad Thing you are fighting to avoid...
I found that defeating the time-killer on these shunting jobs, and the way to get ahead of those AI locos, is not in driving fast, but in using...
Simply put, there need to be two (or more) tutorials: beginner and advanced, plus (certainly in Germany) another one on safety and signaling...
Matt has said, repeatedly, as well as Paul (DTG's Head Poohbah), that the Spirit of Steam releases will be vintage routes, NOT heritage railways.
The claim that running on UE 4 is equivalent to running on Windows 95 is just silly.
In other words: fully recharge the brakes, or else.
Precisely. And since Simugraph doesn't model that voltage drop, the gain knob is pointless (except for immersion's sake).
It's a heavy train, that's why it needs 6000 horsepower in back!
It's a diesel. It won't accelerate like an electric. And, yes, braking is faster (esp since the 612, like most modern German passenger rigs, uses...
Complicating things is the fact that the game thinks a mile is 2000 yards (which is a nautical mile...). In fact, I strongly suspect that the...
Short version: none drivable. Since none of the other German locos/EMU's in the game make the Dresden-Hof run, the layered stuff can only supply...
Nope, you've run into a MAJOR defect in what is otherwise a great route. You worked out exactly the way to do it - except it's easer to reach the...
Yup. Those are all YN3.
I don't see what has changed. Maik will get around to working on the 232 when he's finished the 420. Same as it ever was. Why all the angst?
In a related development, TheShotte's re-textured church in Dante (Clinchfield) has suffered a similar fate: gone grey. Apparently he was using a...
The "Florida Man" we keep seeing in the headlines is a separate species.
Doubt it: i5-7400 3Ghz? Not likely. But the real limiting factor is the elderly H170 chipset. Best I can hope to do, without a complete PC...
Thank God. I'd take the mountain West any day .
True: But TSW was made, from the start, with the intention of moving train simming into the console market. And it worked: console users make up...
The "05" could reference the period from which the design dates, even if production continued past 1990 and the units have been upgraded over...
I was being much too condensed responding from my phone. I do have a PCIe-16 slot- but it's only a 3.0, not a 4.0. Therefore an RTX does me no...
And what is "its current state"?
Bingo
IIRC, Union Pacific do their handrails like that
While you are correct, you are correct with regard only to the PC community. Console players don’t have access to mods.
Great. My old motherboard doesn’t support RTX cards
Steam’s servers seem to be having ussues. It took a while before I could get the download to start
it’s more than just COVID, or the supply chain jam. It’s the explosion of bitcoin miners, running farms of machines that use GPUs for processing...
Horses for courses. I have lost interest in ICE runs - nothing to do but punch the Sifa button while the computer drives the train.
Or the 422 Köln S-Bahn services
Dunno. I got a small SPG update yeserday, but only noticed the mod conflict it created. New scenarios would be good
Separate names with a comma.
