I get that there is no through traffic via Hagen. RRO/RSN come up because they happen to exist- but then again, given the timetabling issue, it...
You can always set the weather to fog...
Just messing around in Cumberland Yard, I decided to work through the shutdown and start procedures on all 3 locos. The EMD engines were no...
Fixed in today's patch.
Is the square around the throttle setting in the HUD red? That means an interlock is in place (brakes or doors). Check the doors, and then try...
The TGV and ICE3 trainsets are semi-permanent EMUs; they aren't supposed to uncouple, except as a shop job. The exception to this is the ability...
Apparently fixed in today's patch, according to the patch notes.
Files showing a Jan 11 Date Modified include the TSW2 .exe file (the main program) and all the .ini files as well as the core game .pak and those...
It seems the posted patch notes are very, very incomplete. This update replaces the core .pak files for far more than just TGV and SKA.
Hey, I'm not saying that M-A isn't worth getting! I was just responding to the assertion that "DTG have never produced a German route just to...
24 and 26 are different and incompatible brake systems. Modern (as in, since the mid-1960s!) North American locos have an MU valve configured so...
This is a weird one. In Sand Patch Grade, alternate skins for the locos and the rolling stock spawn in a pleasingly randomized way- except for...
Nothing to do with the sim at all, but the 'frame' program: It would be nice to have added to the Pause screen a) a button for "Quit game" (like...
Weird- I have never had a problem, except when Steam updates.
Waiting to start the day: [IMG] Three DB 146.2's and a 143 with Dostos, lined up on the sidings. Main-Spessart Bahn, shortly after dawn.
Main-Spessart Bahn, at Langenprozelten eastbound for Gemunden (this specific service is the first Journey service in the second (DApbzfa)...
OK, I still think it's a bug, but it may be the way PzB really works? The workaround is just to stay put in the station until the light changes...
You're right. I knew there was another reason I hate driving the 101 besides changing gears!
This is an issue with the BR 442 (both versions), as well as some others: There is no "detent" between Full Service and Emergency- in other...
These are manually-lapped brakes (also found on the NTP Class 45 and 47), which are a bit more challenging to use than the auto-lapped brakes...
Does Muenchen-Augsburg add anything new except different scenery and a trivially different ICE3?
Some of us like hauling heavy stuff around instead of people.
Try going to TSW2 Properties in Steam and turning off the Steam overlay and VR support.
Main-Spessart Bahn, at Langenprozelten eastbound for Gemunden (this specific one is the first Journey service in the second (cab-car) chapter)....
That block on a loco states who the owner is (and is thus responsible for its maintenance etc.) As @The SimTrain Tube said, Railion is a holding...
Unfortunately, nearly all SPG services use multiple engines, but the trail loco is not set up correctly at start. You have to run back there (or...
Fair point. But then- and this provides a clean slate WRT timetables - they could produce a new (sellable!) DLC which links RSN with SKA via...
But if we are talking about joining existing full routes, then they are each independent marketable products. Most DB-heads have both RRO and RSN.
Yet the MFD works in most German trains, and the Dash-8 GE diesels.
The problem is that those are 15mph points- the sign is right there - but the HUD speed display doesn't pick them up so the unwary will roll...
Which, again, is an argument for modular joinable routes. Sell Route 1 for $40, Route 2 for $40 and then for those who are interested in Great Big...
I would reply, "Because it's a simulation. People play sims to emulate the real world vicariously." And the real world includes long train trips....
All right, played around with it: it seems to be hit or miss, at least in Sand Patch Grade. I now have three different boxcars and two different...
All right, something is not working. The app doesn't recognize my TrainSimWorld2 folder at all, I just keep getting an Exception! error
If one has alternate liveries installed, does TSW2 randomly "layer" them into timetable/scenario/journey/free roam sessions? Or can they only be...
Oh fer Pete's sake! How long would it really take, even if the only tools were as basic as the consumer scenario editor, to take an RExx service...
Tried it and..... as soon as I sat in the chair, the thing auto-started all by itself!
Thread necromancy, I know- but. I can't seem to get it* to start up. I prime for five seconds, then move it to Start and get... nothing. If I...
Thanks for those announcements! They really, really do enhance the simulation, because they're so familiar to any Tube rider.
I was under the impression the timetables were based on the RW timetables? Besides, route-linking has been going on for a long time with TS20XX...
IIRC, it was because the two routes' models of Hagen Hbf and its trackage aren't quite the same. But it seems to me that a patch could substitute...
It's an unfortunate side-effect of "layering." If the East Coast Way route is installed, then the game randomly imports the ECW model of the...
Because those better graphics require a hell of a lot more data processing than TS1's rather simplistic graphics do: you can carry a lot more...
Just like in real life. Passenger load times are sacrosanct as a matter of policy, no matter how late you're running. Passengers, after all, are...
Yes- TSW2020 gave us "dioramas" (i.e. background for loco stationary screens)- not really a significant thing, but big, visual and a change of...
Yeah, I'm replying to myself here. But I thought I would add that that spur line, besides the scenery, the vintage rolling stock and fixed assets...
I agree- but the reason it can be done relatively easily with German routes is because they are all DB and the livery and (most) rolling stock...
Which implies that there should be little problem in making pre-existing routes "linkable," if they run to a common point, which suggests that...
Same issue, and I have never had the 363 DLC so that isn't causing it.
I seem to recall that it's correlated with Steam updates; apparently there's a data file with login info that get scrubbed when the Steam software...
Separate names with a comma.
