Let's put it this way, using an existing route as an example: Rhein Sieg Nord, a route which was I think done very very well both in level of...
The thing is, motion blur together with whole host of other UE parameters/features (e.g. DefaultFeature.LensFlare, CameraMotionSway,...
Are you suggesting that a (hypothetically) unprofitable product line be subsidized by profitable ones just to keep it afloat?
Exactly. Train drivers don't get in the cab and go "Hm, where shall I go today? I fancy Aberdeen, I think. Or maybe St. Ives?"
You've never been to a massage parlor, have you? :cool:
Don't run it with SD40s, use AC4400CWs. That's 8800 horsepower vice 6000- nearly 50% more. (and it's 3-phase AC, which gives better tractive force).
And in real life. My personal favorite: [IMG]
But it is NOT free to commercial developers. DTG are not "the public" and have to pay a license fee plus royalties, and are bound by Epic's...
I take it you believe in Santa Claus?
Well, personally I disagree. Now, DTG can't help the Peninsula being one of the most drab, uninteresting landscapes in all of America; but they...
No, I'm saying how do you recoup the lost revenue from stretching out the release schedule?
You really don't get it. TIME EQUALS MONEY.
While that's true, if the reported issue popped up in the roadmap then at least one knew. Even if entered as [Dropped-could not reproduce].
The January-form roadmap included bug fixes being worked on.
Solingen and Siegen are the missing links in DTG's Ruhr network.
Again: how are they going to pay for it? You seem to be demanding something for nothing.
That's nice, but "Has been logged" tells us nothing about whether they're going to do anything about it or not.
I think we are all forgetting that DTG is a tiny company serving a niche market. There are only a limited number of potential train sim customers...
Throttle your frame rate; match or use an even factor of your screen refresh rate (60 or 75) and turn v-sync on. You have a pretty fast setup,...
On the back wall switch panel, below the battery and emergency brake buttons, there is a selector where you can choose Front, Rear or Auto. Auto...
I think you are correct there- but that simply cannot happen without a price increase.
There you would be talking scenario, not timetable randomization.
Uh-huh. So, how would you redress the "buggy and unfinished" issue without driving DTG into bankruptcy? Hire more developers? They only have...
GWE, like all TSW routes, is a time capsule, a period of time cut transversely, either at the time of development, or consciously retro as with...
I believe that the standard is that "within 5 minutes" is considered "on time", except on subways.
Can't pause the game, then the train you're waiting for doesn't move!
I think that the gist of what Sam was saying was NOT that there would be major, service-wrecking disasters like trees across the line or...
Time is money. If DTG were to slow down the release interval without increasing prices, they would soon be getting nasty letters from bill...
It's a consist-formation error in the timetable mode. Each 4-car unit should have one ABpmzf and one Bpmzf as the two end elements, but the...
Maximizing the revenue curve is a matter of calculus, but it's a basic calculus taught in all business schools. Note that there is a significant...
Already fixed. Coming out of Paddington, the HST now hits top speed bang at Iver with 8 cars, or West Drayton with 6, which RW drivers tell us is...
Is freight layered into NTP by owning Tees Valley, or is it just the Heavy Freight pack?
If you like, you can add it to your Steam wishlist (there's a button on the game's Store page), and Steam will send you an email when it goes on sale.
The two are joined at the hip. DTG have the release schedule they do because they require X income to keep the lights on. That translates into...
I did it with 2x4400s with no problem. Not only does the 4400 have half again as much raw horsepower than the SD40, but it's 3-phase AC, meaning...
This does however raise what might become an issue down the line: the intersection of future German route releases with layering- which could lead...
I probably shouldn't have said "obsolete;" say, rather, "historical "
Place an electric on a non-electrified track?
One of the most picturesque routes in Germany (Cliffs! Castles! The Rhine!), and the core of the old Rheingold luxury express route.
It is a a bit dog-in-the-mangerish
Um, no. They are posted by users in the tech report forum where, apparently, nobody at DTG ever reads them. I am not exaggerating: I have...
That's nothing- the whole middle of the Main Spessart Bahn route is gone! The summit of the ramp at Heigenbrucken was bypassed in 2017 by the...
Or this time, not at all.....
The Ruhr-Sieg line is not considered a main line by DB, and only runs freight and Regios. As far as I can tell DBFV doesn't use it (nor do any...
Comment: I love NTP too, but it's not accurate to say "Northern Trans-Pennine takes the top spot as our best British route for Train Sim World 2,...
The BIG missing link in the Ruhr right now is Siegen. So far two routes run Regios which are supposed to terminate at Siegen but as of now don't...
I think the biggest misstep here was not telling us in advance. I don't think the backlash would have been nearly as severe if Natalie or Sam had...
I too am disappointed that (apparently) RM2.0 will not include bug fixes being worked on. I can see why they weren't working with the old...
That's a very good point, Longo: why couldn't Natalie have announced yesterday "We are very sorry, but because we are revamping the Roadmap format...
The game engine would break attempting to keep track of that many trains. I crashed not just the game but my PC attempting, in TS2021, to...
