I don't usually read unnecessarily long posts, but I did read yours. Lack of paragraphs aside, the English is surprisingly good. Did you use some...

I'm trying to remember the last original US freight loco that DTG built for TSW.

PC Scenarios Anyone else not seeing any exhaust from MU's on this route?

And Cary Grant and Eva Marie Saint as NPC's in passenger mode.

There have been several threads in the Suggestions forum for the Hudson Line. Maybe bump the latest one from about 2 weeks ago? It's a very good...

I'm going to assume that the handful of people who voted " yes " are relatively new to the game and don't own any of the older titles.

Absolutely not. I still play the oldest routes, including SPG, the very first and I don't want to resurrect TSW 2020 to keep them alive.

I agree with you about the apparent loss of Brandon as a member of the development team. It's unfortunate, though I would imagine it was his...

I agree. In most cases, they're so basic as to be pretty useless. For instance they usually say nothing about safety systems and how to enable...

I have the overall impression from recent releases that DTG QA casts no more than a cursory glance at third party content when it shows up on...

As I said, the scenery is much better by the shore. I seem to remember that happening a couple years ago with a dmu near ( was it? ) Salisbury.

Yes, as a US based player who really doesn't know that part of the UK very well, I'm quite enjoying the Riviera route. Well modeled, pretty good...

PC player Well I did purchase this dlc. $18 bucks isn't much and curiosity got the better of me. Plus I really want to support and encourage US...

There is such a scenario on Riviera at Plymouth I think during which you get to dispatch some trains. But, unfortunately the passengers don't...

Speaking of alternates, I thought we read from some source that the C41-8W variant was going to be present in this pack. I don't have the dlc...

Multiple saves. The ability to switch to passenger mode on the fly, like we had in previous sims.

I agree. The litany of " new features " we've gotten recently, such as the adaptive eye, snow kickup and now the train faults, have an aura of...

It wouldn't serve DTG ( or any developer ) well to set minimum specs so high ( read realistic ) that it would put off the casual would-be...

Times have changed. And not for the better.

Yes, I got it slightly wrong. But those minimum specs are way too " minimal " just the same.

If I had a body shape like that, I'd be modeling something other than trains.

Yes, a lot of people are happy to give DTG a pass on these third party releases. Of course the 3P developer has to take responsibility for its...

But truthfully not TSW. Yes it might "run " on those specs, but even DTG recommends at least 16 GB of VRAM, and I would not want to play with only...

To be clear, it's not the save function itself that's the problem. I can interrupt a session and resume it without an issue. What's missing are...

Yes, the " Ambassadors " ( strange name for them if they claim impartiality ) are very variable. Won't mention names but some are worth watching...

This should have been mentioned in the article on the previous page. Bit disingenuous. If the locos are just cloned from SPG, I'll share the...

If you look closely at my avatar, you will see our little Chihuahua. She's a mix but has the traits of a Chihuahua, Rarely still and almost never...

Keeping it in the general discussion section keeps it front and center and on everyone's radar. I'll still largely ignore it. I mean it looks...

And buy and play Frankfurt S- Bahn with its dumbed down timetable for console players? What makes you think DTG is going to make routes that fit...

Well apparently the weekends on Discord are moderated by " volunteers" ( read " trusties " ) which is another reason for me to avoid it. If...

While I enjoy playing with virtual trains, TSW is actually a very small part of my everyday routine. If I can snatch a half hour or even an hour...

Well it seems that " discord " is an appropriate title for this forum too. There's enough friction and conflict here, why would I need an actual "...

All that may be true, but a serious effort by DTG might be able to cut through the licensing weeds and enable them to produce some Chicago based...

I don't know the specifics of this instance, so have no opinion, but the more I read about this Discord thing the less I want anything to do with it.

That's good to know, Liam, because, as I'm sure you're aware, the forum has an obsession with toilets on trains, though I've never heard them...

Slight correction. The South Shore Line terminates at Chicago Millennium Station. But an excellent suggestion nonetheless.

" announce " Isn't a noun. Makes me cringe as does the verb " reveal " used as a noun, although there's some history there.

Yes, I do watch the revs, but I pretty much go by the engine sound. I also use a Raildriver which has a gear changer.

Hi and welcome. I would like the Hiawatha Service from Chicago to Milwaukee. It's an Amtrak route but also shares trackage with Metra commuter...

I wonder how many players who find the Class 101 difficult learned to drive a car with stick shift? I guess you have to be of a certain age. ;)

I think there's something not quite kosher about charging for the starter pack. Why should players have to pay a fee to update content they've...

Too early for me to get excited about the US loco packs. After all the Santa Fe pack was announced a year and a half ago. So I would expect the...

There was talk earlier on Facebook of including the C41 variant, but it's not mentioned in this article. I hope it's included.

Oakville is worth it for the GP9rm, the best loco in the game. But wait until it goes on sale, which it frequently does.

Well, I don't think this release is going to attract a large influx of people to American freight. I think it appeals mostly to those of us who...

I agree. That's why every time a route is released, whether it's US, European or UK, there are complaints about loco or emu/dmu sounds. Are...

The elephant in the room is, of course, why DTG isn't doing this kind of content. They keep telling us that they can't get access or the sounds...

And the red German trains and the UK toy trains with their pretty liveries are not? It's a bit more than that, I would say. I agree, a new loco...

But with a console version in mind.
