One thing I have discovered, playing in headphones, is that DTG's sound mixes include a lot more than many people complain of, but they complain...
There is a lot to be said for diesels. Electrification only really makes sense if you are moving a lot of passengers.
It's supposed to try to do so. That's not a guarantee (if you look at the MSD screen, there's a bar graph fpr "speed error" to tell you how far...
The weak link here is the DMH (which pops up and beeps at strange times)- the easy fix it seems would be to disable the DMH function completely,...
I control all my electronic devices with meat. ;)
I would love to be able to pitch in and make some visual mods for TSW, like I used to for TS. But do do so, I need to know how to crack a .pak...
The possibility of linking routes has come up over and over, and every time Matt has addessed it he's pointed out that it can't be done because of...
This is interesting! It seems, looking at the F7 manual (http://www.chartertoconductor.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/EMD_F7_OM.pdf), that DTG...
I have really fallen in love with Clinchfield. Brilliant! But then I'm a freight guy- my previous favorites were Sand Patch and Tees Valley,...
In general, don't trust the HUD on German routes. For one thing, it only reflects main signals, not advance signals, so you will almost never see...
For most of that period, the liveries were chromium green, except for cobalt blue for F-Zuge and wine red for diesel locomotives (plus the...
The problem with using distinctive graffiti, or even distinctive weathering and rust, is that the exact same car then gets cloned over and over again
Incorrect. ALL locomotives except the lead should be set to trail. Trail position disables that cab's brake control so that you control them all...
The key is not to mess around. You need to get past that part of the job before the through train shows up.
Same with the cab lights on both locos, and the SD40 number plates
Well known, often posted, and reportedly Adam is trying to fix it (but it seems that it's more complex than one would think).
I suspect that the TSW2 version is closer to reality than the older one, at least with regards to the braking. The 143 is an old-school...
In most cases, look in the Pause menu under the Schedule tab. It should tell you the train number and its ultimate destination Be advised that...
This is a longstanding problem: the game mixes up the RRO and HRR 422s. Sometimes even in the same train! (hence double pantographs, or, for me...
The screens you are talkng about are hiding behind the "Explore" mutton in the main menu
Exactly the sort of government manipulation of the economy that never ends well (setting aside broader considerations such as individual liberty)....
Since advance signals are usually about 1-1.2 km from the main signal, that double yellow should be plenty of warning to get stopped. Though it...
Go into the Map and see which rakes have engines attached- those will be moving before long. (You can also peek at the timetable for departures...
Now, if DTG and TSG would only collaborate on a BR 103.....
That would be the sort of arrangement I would expect on vintage routes like NTP and TVL (where the coaches are still slam-door, as well). WRT...
Got that: but somebody changes the signal, or rather orders the signalman to change it. This process is connected in some way to the train being...
No, it's just that simple- especially since all trains have a caboose: it was a Federal regulation at the time. Climb up the steps, open the door,...
Who then initiates the departure process?
Simugraph is the train physics-modeling engine that makes the whole game go.
synthetic.angel, how do you drive so that the issue never pops up? Plainly my technique for a station stop invites it
ECW was the first PC route to get the upgrade, in late January this year
However, it may get fixed anyway because of their stated desire to replace generic containers with branded ones
It does work. A pain, to keep your tail end from SPADing at the northenmost signal, but it definitely works. [ATTACH] There are a couple of...
Ultimately what we would like to see is a checkbox system, sort of like the weather selector, where you can choose which liveries you want/don't...
However, there are no subs for the locos in Clinchfield, yet alt-liveries show up on them just fine. I could see a "handmade no-sub" thing...
Oh, I had forgotten I did this post (with pics): https://forums.dovetailgames.com/threads/rolling-stock-liveries-for-clinchfield.38923/
Funny you should mention that: I just had two - two! - custom tankers spawn in SPG yesterday.
Judging by the past, probably a mix. TSW 1 released with GWE and CSXHH, which had already been released, but added NEC and RT, which were new....
Cut in = on Cut out = off
Yes, you only need notch 1. Part of the challenge at Shaw is the downgrade, and the train getting heavier and heavier. You need to keep dropping...
You cant see it from the driving position. You can grope arount the telephone until the cursor finds it, or you can use left arriw until you are...
They should be cut in! Otherwise your brake handle is disconnected and won't release them (hence 63 psi in the brake cylinder, when you want 0,...
Does anybody know if there is a relationship between IC/ICE route numbers and individual service numbers? For example, in grob-e's timetable...
Yes, I learned that the hard way. Should have been more patient yesterday.
For some strange reason, the flying camera can only go through the door on the 'long roof' end, not the other one.
Yes- and how many people go to Birmingham on holiday?
WaveyDavey, have you had any luck getting your cars to spawn in Clinchfield? I haven't seen a single one of mine yet.
Somehow I keep misreading the thread title as "Class 08 on War," and envisioning a militarized armored Gronk.....
Substitution and layering take the loco from its "home" route as-is: no changes are made to it, the system isn't set up to do things like that....
True- but then it would pop up in Clinchfield too. (Incidentally, that CSX logo takes a lot longer than "no time" to make given LD's limited toolset)
