Highlight for me the JT reveal of the Class 86, Mark 2 “coffins” and of course the RMB. It will be hard for anything today or tomorrow to top...
As regards the Class 87 headlight, it’s probably about the correct level of forward illumination you would expect from these original style single...
I wondered where WCMLoS had gone then read the rest of the thread. Yes WCMLS, or WCCL as Matt refers to it (!) definitely gets the early flight...
A bit ageist? I’m approaching my mid 60’s and while not old enough to remember steam on the main line, I feel more affinity with it (and BR...
Jack was pointing out not to get your hopes up and it’s best to be realistic when making suggestions. If in doubt refer to the DTG LAMPOIL system...
Don’t think you have too much to fear, Matt. Had a more extensive go last night and while it’s quite fun and interesting, even making allowances...
Well obviously I have never driven a steam loco, but my experience is that while it might be slightly better than TSW but nowhere near the quality...
Thing is, it's a more complex equation than length on its own. A skilled route builder could, in theory, probably knock out the Far North Line...
Amen to that. I paid £32.99 for WCMLoS as it is a route of particular interest and the era is right together with the iconic Class 87. But might...
There's nothing wrong with Goblin per se, the route and train both put together well. Just doesn't inspire. Cathcart also an electric bus service...
Some good ties there and nice to see Goblin getting pounded by Cathcart. The rest pretty much as you would expect. Hopefully in this one the WCML...
Dutch route looking good and looks like my plastic/leatherette seat fetish is about to be indulged.
My thought too. A Class 56 for TVL and NTP, then layered on to WCMLoS would be Day One for me.
It’s an acquired taste, having refunded it twice I’m now having one more go but just starting out in simulation mode. The process for going...
[EDIT - Jan - Insensitive, Snarky] Perhaps if DTG thought outside the box or devised a better system for TSW route building in the first place…...
Another one for the bingo board - Survival Mode. Matt has probably been playing Trans Siberian so before starting a run in TSW you have to stock...
I played it quite a lot when first released and it is a good game. As regards the tutorial, well I had one more crack and it loaded at a...
Yes when I did the tutorial previously it was just a quick overview of the loco and a bit of shunting. The new one has you fitting parts to the...
The new tutorial seems to go on and on and save is disabled too. Had to come off after about 50 minutes so dismayed if I have to do it over again....
They also really do need to start thinking in terms of what Run 8 have been doing pretty much since inception and SimRail are doing with their...
Nothing against third parties, the more the merrier but a pack with freight cars and a new loco we haven't seen yet might have aroused a bit more...
Bit underwhelming today, really. Some screen dumps of US freight cars from a 3D modelling package. Yet another third party item too, really not...
Surprised no one has done a “Big Reveal” bingo card, capturing all the theories put forward so far.
Admittedly it’s still going to be that, but the steam simulation looks far superior to TSW and the ability to preset your route from the map(s)...
Or maybe they dusted off Flight Sim World and actually going to finish making it? In all seriousness that wouldn’t be a bad thing, given the...
The 350 stopping from 60 MPH in 220 metres - that doesn’t seem right to me. For a Class 150 or 158 the optimum stopping distance from 75 MPH was...
Just watched the official update video. By god that looks good. An early access game that has actually delivered. To hell with SimRail and Toytown...
Er, was that it? A badge for livery creator which I have no intention of using. For December, some sort of feature to drop in a route would have...
Good stuff though rather a shame Shap ended up tied against ECML as they were both contenders for a strong finish. Also in the other thread, can’t...
With LiDAR data for the Isle Of Arran rotated to provide terrain for the famous Isle Of Sodor.
I still don’t think it would be a specific route or train DLC, unless as noted something with a festive theme such as if they got a licence for...
DTG to the microphone, please…
A screen dump from a 3D modelling programme sadly is a long, long way from a completed asset.
Why didn’t I spot that?! Will have a go later.
As below... This from a Journey Timetable run on ECML. As you can see the AP has gone to TVL: [ATTACH]
Moss Vale to Goulburn with the various freight spurswould be nice, or the scenic line from Moss Vale to Unanderra. Yes, I've been dabbling with...
103 is a nice drive, apart from the very loud and insidious traction fan which goes continually, rather than spooling down as the amps drop....
Or the Hindenburg... I'm quite happy with my petrol/electric Hybrid Toyota Yaris. The miles per gallons drops a bit in the winter, currently...
Trying the steam loco now. Mixed feelings so far, not helped by a bit of trial and error for key commands which don't appear to have made it in...
I see it is only £10.55 currently on Steam so grabbing for one more go.
Right, time to try out the steam engine...
In this thread... https://forums.dovetailgames.com/threads/what-next-for-a-remaster.87739/
I bought Trans Siberian (twice) and refunded it (twice). I mean the concept seemed interesting but the idea of a fairly complex traction...
Well Liam has stated he will not be doing any more remasters, so there is no one at DTG to do this. Not really much you could do with it anyway,...
Depends how you expressed your views. Many of us criticise the game on here but so long as it's done without resorting to swearing or insulting...
I know that quite nicely... Basically just adding a bit more hype to what's mostly already known. Kind of hoped Week 3 would be a bit more...
That Trans Siberian game has the ability to swap out defective components on your loco, but I couldn’t gell with a train sim which encourages you...
Another “reveal” of something that has been known about for some time.
Unplayable was perhaps an exaggeration, but certainly not optimum listening experience. Anyhow next time I do a run I’ll try to capture the sound...
I normally crash out of those games after about 40 seconds. Of course Travellers’ Fare would not have that many options for menu items. Pork pie,...
