Loco haulage is far more interesting both IRL and the simulation. We already have an abundance of overpowered/overbraked modern units with the...
Each to their own, but no thanks!
Likewise Chopper And Change, still broken. Once you push the defective wagons through the workshop and detach, you come up against a GPL at danger...
Tube lines are really only worth doing in non ATO era. (Which rules out the Victoria Line altogether). Problem with Jubilee is that it's another...
No worries...
I don't think that is something we would want to simulate or even mention in connection with the route. The Driver Jack Mills who was severely...
Exactly!
Set it in the 70's/80's with AM10's (Class 310) on the locals. Morning and evening peak Cobbler services hauled by anything Willesden could put...
I either use the 2D map or the "8" view where possible to work manual points. However there are a few scenarios where I think you have to get down...
This has a danger of turning into a wish list, but if there was something I’d really like to see in TSW that is totally different to anything...
Probably Simudrive!
What a silly comment! TSW is no more niche than some other games and DTGs own sister train game not only has a save that works but can be used...
I do agree about the night lighting and have mentioned it previously, Manchester, Huddersfield and Leeds city centres look like the middle of the...
The current service is something like 4 or 5 trains a day so not much scope for a good timetable. Even going back to BR days the service was never...
Silver roofed Stratford 47’s please!
Problem is, if DTG were going to do anything extension wise, would probably have happened by now. In addition to the branches, including the...
BR Blue would be better as you had several loco hauled services to Newquay on a Summer Saturday. Branch would be worked either by Class 119 or...
The other advantage of Cane Creek is that once off the main line there are no signals and your train (generally) is the only one about, the save...
Hard to say as I’m still working through Journey mode on most routes. NTP seems okay but TVL is a bit flakey. There have been reports that not all...
AFAIR the Class 45’s were never fitted for multiple working either within the Class or with other types. In the event double heading was required,...
Yes but Diesel Legends uses GWE which is effectively still the same core route. I will have to do some more testing as that would indicate the...
Indeed. It was essentially a remastered and drastically improved FSX SE and had a far more reasonable hardware footprint than MSFS. At the time,...
[ATTACH] ...that just keeps you coming back for more. NTP is still one of the best looking UK routes, particularly at dawn or dusk when the...
I am currently attempting a Journey mode rotation, working along the list of routes I own and dropping into the next available trip. Keeps a nice...
And me. Almost tempted to get HSC despite the apparent physics issues but no, holding firm. Possibly make an exception for Scousy Steamy which...
And it's more than just a handful. The timetable is so complex that every service has the potential to lock up. The schedules are also quite slack...
I'd quite like to see some Alco's in the game, along with a suitable route, break the monotony of EMD and GE.
That is correct and I've been on the tube numerous times when you get a lurch and the lights go out, at least on the older stock. Other point to...
Not to mention going away and leaving the PC on is not going to be very energy bill friendly - even standby or "sleep" mode will still be using power.
We are talking the UK third rail EMU's here, North American stuff may well be configured differently.
When doing Diesel Legends I got checked down to a red in Sonning Cutting after reloading a save and couldn’t get the signal to change, game over.
The depiction in TSW is off, in reality the power is jumpered through the train so gapping, lurching or loss of line light should not really happen.
I agree with the Rev (again!). Journey mode is meant to be the “readers choice” of the route experience, the best timetable runs and scenarios...
Main problem with CRR and why I haven't played it nearly as much as it deserves, is that many of the runs and scenarios are, how can I put it,...
Seligman to Needles is in Run 8 and is actually quite heavily graded in places. Sadly the scenery is a bit bland, desert and a few hills though...
Well it does work on some routes. The older German inter urban like Rhein Ruhr Osten seems to restore okay as does the new Chemnitz route. For the...
Do we know if DTG and/or Skyhook have acknowledged the train loads/physics are wrong? I haven’t seen any input from them in the thread, though...
Exactly, as I noted yesterday in the thread. This had the potential to be the ultimate route to spend a whole shift driving trains over several...
Joe is the timetable author at DTG.
This is the sort of route that would really open up the "world" aspect of TSW. Something so far removed from yet another mundane British or German...
Something like the Spokane to Sandpoint Funnel would be good (before the double tracking and maybe in BN green days), or anything in the Pacific...
Although with hindsight, FSW didn't require over 100Gb of HD space, didn't need to spend 30 minutes each time you go back to it downloading...
BR were actually quite good, at least until sectorisation took hold but that is probably a debate for another thread.
Well I haven't bought HSC yet (maybe in a sale if the physics get fixed) but on mileage driven (not accurate): Sherman Hill 17 miles (which I know...
As per my comment above, although the Class 700 holds no personal interest for me (I would prefer a 4 VEP or 4CIG), I would be reluctant to buy...
However it's all for nought on a route where you can only reliably run a service in one go without saving and resuming later.
It should go to Perth and be set in 1978 so we can thrash the 40 up the bank out of Queen Street. Throw in a Class 26 or Class 27 and maybe...
