Agree. I am currently spending most of my time in Run 8, now the first update to V3 has come out. Route building or rather virtual modelling, is...
Very true, go into far more detail and not all the characters are as likeable as in the movies, either. I’m slowly working through the George RR...
Actually thinking about it and tied up with my separate suggestion, the best QOL for the menu system, is give us back the option of the old style....
Good shout, the problem being it’s already been done in several other sims and the version in Run 8 with various lineside industries to serve,...
It has limitations but is actually quite good and will even dynamically route, something Kuju never managed in MSTS and DTG in TS or TSW (so far)....
Problem solved if you set it pre 1994 and the split into Railtrack (the predecessor of Network Rail), then the break up of BR into various private...
There are some pre configured scenarios at The Depot, such as "Busy SoCal" which pretty much fills all the maps with cars and trains. It was...
Appreciate that but the forum rules are that posts should be in English, where possible,
Don’t we have enough German commuter routes in the game already? :|
Shouldn’t this all be posted in English, please?
As I noted above, the switching in TSW serves no purpose. By contrast yesterday evening, I was running a local between Fresno and Bakersfield in...
It would be nice to see something like Kicking Horse Pass for Canada, maybe even set back a few years when the Canadian passenger train still...
I'm not sure if TSW does this, but in Run 8 if you apply the train brake while dynamics are engaged, the loco brake does not actually apply....
It was a novelty to start with but soon became apparent the effect had been completely overcooked.
Indeed. As I noted above! This would be a nice route to introduce a 4VEP and maybe 2 or 4EPB into TSW2.
Just not in the Electrostar era, please.
I would like to be able to resume my saved game from the first available menu screen, without having to trawl through the randomly ordered...
When I worked in the NR Control as a Train Running Controller (now retired!), management of freight traffic was an important part of the job. All...
The 08 shunter has some of the best track and flange sounds.
Must admit, so do I. For all the enticing preview shots including the Mark Ones, I still cannot get that excited over the prospect of driving from...
As an aside, this afternoon I finally added the Bakersfield Sub (Bakersfield to Fresno) to my Run 8 collection. That means if I so desire, I can...
Not to mention the routes where there are bushes growing up through the main line. This is simple snagging work that a 12 year old play tester...
Appreciate the update. Though the 232 even more eagerly awaited.
Tend to agree re Cathcart. Good for a one off trip but massively wasted potential compared to having a more expansive Glasgow suburban network....
Or Chiltern. Or Edinburgh to Dundee.
Realistically, not going to happen.
There were various types of Mark One catering cars, the RMB being the basic buffet with a pantry and counter in what was essentially a modified...
No steam heat effects on show yet, though!
Driving the Western a bit more yesterday evening, really frustrating when you get to Reading and want to push on towards Westbury, Taunton, Exeter...
True, but you still have to test each and every scenario or activity then rinse and repeat until it works correctly. I admit my view was probably...
Got to admit, along with the 45 probably the best UK diesel in TSW2. Could drive it all day, love how they captured the Maybach growl. If only we...
Only if the model is built from the bottom up and has no connection at all to the Rivet abomination. Frankly for the North East or NTP a Class 142...
In the case of routes though, probably not strictly true. Obviously no one outside DTG or their associates can confirm how long a section takes to...
Too long...
Good suggestion. Would also require DTG to finish Reigate off! Potential for historic layers too Class 119 Gloucester DMU's (with the occasional...
On a related theme, we could have scenarios where single line working is in operation, thinking the classic UK routes. Stop to pick up the...
It does increasingly seem all the resources are being thrown at Spirit Of Steam with anything else that might have been considered for...
And in the case of TVL, if the freight only section, very scenic too, to Boulby had been included along with the Bishop Auckland branch, would...
Very odd, then.
Images not showing. Doesn't Cuba also have the rather fascinating Hershey Electric Railway (interurban/tram)?
PC isn't bad especially with the DLC locos. Problem is the perennial one - yet another route where you're driving from virtually silent cab cars...
Hard to see but it looks like they have got the second class moquette correct. They look lovely - I just hope we are also getting a catering...
Yes that would be a worthwhile option, too.
And ripe for all sorts of layers, all the way through from Steam, classic diesels/DMU's, second gen Pacers, 150's, 153's and 155's.
This continues to annoy and frustrate with routes seemingly arranged in random order, not even alphabetically. Sometimes you can scroll across...
Just call up the Steam store page for TSW and tot up the various DLC.
You can sort of do this now from external view (3) or free roam (8) keys, though not recommended to have the safety systems switched on. There is...
Starting at Bradford on Avon would be kind of pointless. Bristol to Salisbury or Westbury to Southampton would be more logical end points. For...
Given the route is near release, likely it has long been "baked" and significant changes to the scope therefore impossible.
I'm an old dinosaur who wants to run 305's, 309's and Stratford silver roof 47's on the GEML!
