Well I finished my run down into Cheyenne. I really think the braking performance on the consists is not quite as it should be - shouldn't take a...
Or Easter, which is quite late this year.
It is made quite clear at the start of the game the risks involved in walking on the real railway line. However "in game" you are present as a...
Finishing my 5 FPS stutter fest on Sherman, coming into Cheyenne my eyes couldn't help be drawn towards the garish graffiti on the side of several...
Might be worth a try but the catch is due to the ongoing hardware shortage and the bitcoin farms still snapping up what does become available,...
I have an I7 4770 at 3.5Ghz, 24 Gb RAM and a GTX 1650 (not super) graphics card with 4Gb of Vram. It runs most routes very well apart from Sherman...
Had a quick look on Steam for the TS 8F but can’t see it listed. Any idea how it’s described?
I expect there will be a modified HUD for steam showing the essential readings, steam pressure, boiler water level, fire level/temp etc. Similar...
You could be right, as some mention a Rugby portion. This is going to get interesting!
Actually there are a few hefty gaps in the week (far more SO services). For example on the Up... You have a 1205 to Ditton stopper with the next...
A brief look at those timetables shows quite a lot of trains actually, some of the expresses going to Birmingham not London. I wonder if we will...
Nice find James. Time to do some reading up.
7P would require a Royal Scot, then.
Interesting, have managed to abstract the daytime Down Liverpool weekday service from Euston in 1958 from the SIAM game (which runs from 0700 to...
I believe 8F's were used along with Jintys at Euston on ECS to Willesden. Likewise sometimes engines off a previous arrival could be used tender...
Sorry, I completely disagree with a monthly subscription. N3V are pursuing this with Trainz. Either a one off purchase or I walk on by.
Well for anyone to have experience of this route at the time it’s set, by now they would be in their late 70’s or early 80’s. And beware the...
Well I have to conclude, leaving performance issues aside, if there was an award for the most boring route in TSW2, Sherman Hill should get it....
I wonder if you will get a game over "blowback" if you have the firebox door open going through a tunnel!
Yes, when your GPU overheats trying to render all those yards and sidings and multiple tracks everywhere!!! :)
Well both have their good and bad points. I'm playing TSW2 at present but for the UK, the primary focus is fairly modern stuff though the classic...
Just Crewe to Liverpool has good scope for DLC, as already mentioned the following are possibilities: Class 3F 0-6-0 Jinty and additional freight...
Thanks Wavey, I'll try that as well.
Looking at some P3 coach images, must admit would have been nice to see these in the game. Hopefully in a DLC along with a Duchess or Royal Scot.
Already suggested by me - see below! https://forums.dovetailgames.com/threads/steam-heat-effects.51268/
Think I can split my concerns into three main areas: 1. Performance. We have already seen with Sherman Hill that a swathe of plain terrain with...
That's why, 1. I reckon it will be Xmas which of course then leads into the possibility of no other UK route this year unless one of the third...
That will come with the Jinty DLC along with a few more wagon types, I expect!
Seems like a worthwhile idea to me. At the moment we have discussions going on across various subs, which are forever in danger of getting buried...
Thought this worth abstracting from the main Crewe to Liverpool “SOS” thread as it has a wider application for other classic or heritage UK...
I get that it was the editor, obviously not a case of what you see is what’s in the final product then. Worth mentioning nonetheless as it’s not...
And need to reflect the appearance in that time period, as I just posted in the main thread in PC discussion. In particular the correct seat...
As I remarked, at first I was unimpressed but after seeing that section on the video clip I came round. Doesn’t stop me lamenting its not the S&D...
Not unless there's any archive footage. Affordable hand held video cameras were still some 35 years in the future at that point!
It will take upwards of 10 minutes for the brakes to release such that you can start moving with a long train. I managed to get going when the EOT...
I've just watched part of the stream (instead of playing Sherman) and have to say some of the initial views I posted above have been a bit...
Which is why I'll buy it even though I just feel a bit underwhelmed after all the waiting. Looking quickly at my publications the route (minus...
I also wonder how they will manage “in and out” working at Lime Street in Timetable mode, given WCL did not account for late running and dropped...
Have to confess a slightly mixed reaction to this. The route is not one that was even on my radar. Quite short, though it depends how much of...
It seems a rather strange limitation. How to the AAA games running on UE4 get around it, I wonder?
One thing I’m finding, is that the route looks much nicer driven from an external camera. For some reason, cab view from the SD70 is squashing...
Trainsim dot com sees very little traffic these days apart from the Open Rails section and maybe a bit of Run 8. Unfortunately it is also quite...
Well actually it would be nice to see a 3D version of the old SIAM traffic control games, http://www.siam.co.uk/conc5/ (hope it's okay to post a...
My reference to the UK traction types was simply to illustrate the broader context. If it offends or not in the spirit of the OP, I will edit them...
Probably another Electrostar third rail route in Kent or Sussex... ;):cool: Seriously I think they ought to be looking at how to further develop...
That is my only worry about the S&D, they might make it the same as the sawn off RS original - Bath to Templecombe. I would happily pay £40 for...
Rivet need to fix their existing broken doodoo before they think about releasing anything else... :)
No. They have already said it will be a period route, which rules out a modern day tourist railway.
Good point but as previously speculated, I wonder if the sales were that good or the refund to sales ratio quite high, due to all the issues....
On a slightly different note, what time does the "big" announcement actually take place today, when will we find out for sure?
Separate names with a comma.
