Good shout on the route but needs to be BR Classic to fully tickle my urges.
Think you will have a long wait. AFAIK Just Trains are now working exclusively on TSW products and again, various Irish projects have been...
Most of the US suggestions are far too long and disregard the fact the big freight railroads are not talking to DTG and that Metra have previously...
Neither of these really need any introduction as they have been discussed numerous times in the various JT threads… Class 108 DMU. Far more at...
The 745’s… forever known in railway circles as Basils. As in Fawlty.
“All you had to do was follow the damn train, CJ.”
Just bear in mind for PC it will be at least a year if not two after consoles before we see GTA6, so no real competition there. And, while I...
If DTG gave us a choice between a steam loco and a Class 120 Cross Country DMU or a Class 201 - 207 Thumper DEMU, then steam can go back in the...
Oh indeed, I figured that was probably the case...
And as I said in the "doomed" thread, at this point we do not know the answer. TSW6 could go either way. If we get some meaningful core and QOL...
Off at a slight tangent, but I hope if we do get a debranded version they will fix the issue with the F40 where you blow the PCS out when trying...
My first thought was do we really need yet another thread at a tangent about TSW6. Quite impossible to say whether it is “doomed” as it’s not...
Great, as in Great Western, could even be an original GWR Broad Gauge Line. Complete with Railway “Policemen” signalling the trains and Brunel...
Exactly as my point above. The only information we have is that the situation is ongoing and they hope to resolve. We are not automatically...
I will check it out later, thanks!
Your best bet is approaching the people who did the Irish routes for MSTS, if they’re even still about. The fact that in 18 years of TSC...
Thanks for confirming about the Journey mode. A shame core performance wasn’t mentioned but it is what it is, the last update did make things run...
Indeed. Performance wise the 86 will be like the 87 with a traction motor isolated. And Tom did say on his stream the sounds are subtly different...
I thought the official stance is that negotiations are still proceeding, including whether Caltrain will be amenable to the unbranded version.
Actually Riviera Line potentially good in the early to mid 90’s. Last of the Heritage DMU’s but also Pacers and Sprinters. HST’s and loco hauled,...
The main issue with the 170 as noted is the almost complete lack of track running sounds and a few oddities at speed with the engine sounds....
Didn’t get a chance to watch the stream live. Just wondered how many questions from this thread were answered, including mine about Journey Mode...
We seem to have two parallel threads running about steam potential in TSW6. However my gut feeling is unless there are fundamental changes to the...
I would like to see steam get a fair representation but it needs to be done properly and the existing content overhauling to function more...
I just instinctively reach for the “3” camera!
The irony is, all the potential Western Region routes would be far more interesting if set back 40 or so years. Fewer trains but more variety of...
Not strictly a signalling challenge but thought I would throw this in here. After watching (JT) Tom’s preview of the Class 86 pack where he...
There’s more chance of getting the Darjeeling Himalayan Railway in TSW6 than working steam. Oh, hang on, the DHR is actually (mostly) steam!
Although for the most part, it’s surprisingly flat though you do have Wellington Bank. For a real, “Come and have a go, if you think you’re hard...
Love it!
Never tried that but I did drive the old MSTS version which, while set back in late steam days and took some liberties as tended to be dictated by...
One possibility which did flicker across my mind was Bristol to Birmingham, actually. Part of it already exists with BCC and would allow stock...
And smellovision when the rancid retention toilets start backing up!
One additional question, aimed squarely at DTG. Been watching part of Tom’s stream and afraid to say the stuttering and sound squelching of the...
I was about to ask about sounds but SO95 appears to have covered that. So my only real question is, does the Class 86 pack get its own Journey...
Anyhow although most likely “Great” means Great Western there are other possibilities on the UK network. In a more whimsical moment last night I...
No one does. But I would rather not lose £40 worth of content if the next best option is unbranded or fictional branding.
Source and peer review required otherwise just hearsay or wind up.
Hear what you say Chris, but we are being forced to keep the DLC on what will become an obsolete and unsupported version of the game because of...
Yes that is pretty much is (or was, as I retired in 2018 so don't know what current thinking is) the contingency for an all line block between...
I mean I don't know if the real railway infrastructure is like this, but what sort of messed up operation has an unsecured (as in no ground frame...
Happy to pay the full grip for this one, Fred!
II just encountered the same issue with P520. As I have manual switches set to AI to change, would have thought that should have happened...
Yes it's not as easy as that. My wife insists we switch our broadband hub off at night to save power and avoid potential fire risk, though now we...
Unbranded (or fictional brand) better than nothing, but still think your legal advisors should be looking at the small print of the original...
Yes, same here. It's going to have to be something exceptionally special and iconic to persuade me to part with in excess of £50 this year. SBO...
I do very much suspect that is the case. Even SHG have backed off from doing new routes or motive power.
Indeed, as I just said above. However that still leaves the question of what DTG could do with public domain rights to keep the content rolling...
Mein Fuhrer(ess)!
I guess it depends on the exact wording of the licence. Let's just hope DTG were less eager with some of the bigger licensors in the game than...
Separate names with a comma.
