Oddly enough, the consoles cope just fine with more complex games than this. I say "oddly" – tongue in cheek. It's just a major reveal of the...
No, they shouldn't be connected. The Xbox app is a Microsoft store, and Steam is owned by Valve. A bit strange you have just part of it in Steam....
What platform do you have it on? I've never had issues, so it isn't universal and more on the download platform side. Mine is on Steam.
And I think that's the major difference this year: it was free. With some improvements. Not massive ones, but some, and not bad ones. Bugs and...
I can only speak from my experience, but Microsoft have consistently released free updates over its life cycle, and when the updates land, I...
I bought TSW 4 partly for the Flying Scotsman. I suppose it helps that I wouldn't have a clue if the physics feel right, it's just such an iconic...
DTG Matt Trunk Service isn't fixed. I bought the 363 DLC the other day on recommendation, and spent time on Trunk Service getting connected to...
So, casually drop a list in here as if the OP and others were wrong, but actually routes have been dropped with no announcement or follow-up (will...
Just wondering, did this actually get patched, as per Delta's comment? I bought this on sale last night and have only done the tutorial and the...
I have a 4070 Super and, though I haven't checked GPU usage, performance can get choppy either end of the route. This is at 1440p resolution. On...
Luckily for me I had saved just before trying photo mode, but imagine if it were back in the days when save game also caused permanent reds...
You ever get the impression they are adding features such as this as a cheap workaround so they don't need to spend the time debugging the sim?...
I agree, I bought the standard edition at £39 because that's good for the three new routes. The only thing I would say is that it is down to DTG...
Sorry, I have no idea. I haven't driven that loco, and I'm new to the safety systems myself.
From my viewpoint, though, if they are growing the team due to more financial resource, I'd prefer that they invest in enhancing skillset to work...
Tutorials generally are lacking and miss important steps. It's like training centre: I was excited to see proper tutorials on signalling and...
I didn't have an issue (on Steam). It took a few minutes and done.
I made sure to get this route, ready for the remaster. Looking forward to it – and hopefully more to come.
My experience as a passenger: in the daytime, there are announcements as clear as day; in the evening, when you can't see outside to see where you...
They just can't afford the tickets these days.
I still don't understand how passenger behaviour can be so inconsistent. I got TSW 5 and the first thing I did was continue with a saved journey...
Thank you! I've got the hang of everything else, but I couldn't for the life of me find any explanation for the flashing G and why it wasn't going...
I haven't played the route yet, but have you reported this? It's easy to presume this will never get sorted, but if it isn't reported officially...
I was glad this thread came up because I only recently started using LZB and PZB, and I think I have the hang of it (it isn't the scary thing I...
I presume that's because each route is built as a separate entity; it isn't a core thing that can be changed then has a global effect. I have...
They seem to have a real issue with handling LOD. It's not only that you see more detail (and shadows) popping in close by, the shape of the trees...
Good point. Could be. To be honest, I didn't realise there was a level above gold in the sim. This past week is probably the most I've played it...
I resolved the red S. I had to turn the battery off and start the engine back up. Despite my issues, I managed to get a gold, which is really...
You're right there. There is definitely more than one programmer at DTG. I don't think they'd get anything done with one programmer.
I don't think there's a standard. It simply depends on the project. The team my brother works with at the moment consists of over 400 people, I...
Interesting about the pantograph, and it makes perfect sense. Still not sure what happened to cause the braking. I was already being cautious (I...
Thanks. I did wonder if it was unrelated, but I was already slowing down before the magnet and acknowledged immediately. I mean, I'm fairly new to...
I've noticed gaps in tutorials, like one telling you to apply throttle and go – but it didn't tell you to close the train doors first. I think...
Re your first point, that's what I did Re the second, I wasn't resuming from a save game. I have saved it where I was stuck and haven't gone back...
I am currently running journey mode on Frankfurt – Fulda, and I believe I'm on chapter 3, Mind the Gap. I have LZB and PZB active. From the...
I was close to completing the first chapter (after training) of the Frankfurt – Fulda journey in the ICE T when I came to a permanent red aspect....
I wouldn't call that a remaster, not in the same way GWE and West Somerset Railway have been remastered, and I think it's clear that is what...
I have bought from CDKeys without any issues so far. I already bought the TSW 5 standard edition from Steam, now suddenly CDKeys are selling it...
It could be the overlay... I never use that. I also have it installed on a M.2 card, so I'll see what happens if I get chance to hop onto that...
I might check it out later, as I installed TSW5 but have continued my journey on an old route I was in the middle of. I have a RTX 4070 Super, so...
I remember the days I was in bed by midnight...
I disagree that the issue is Unreal Engine 4. Yes, it has quirks and niggles, especially if you rely on blueprints. But the point is you don't...
Exactly. The engine can make performance worse to begin with, pre-optimisation. Especially when adding the fancier features. I think the delusion...
I don't know why Matt says "if it were possible", because it is possible. DTG's issue will be justifying the port, because I'm guessing they don't...
Indeed. Although as DTG say that their train physics are entirely bespoke (Simugraph), they presumably aren't relying on the same physics systems...
I'll just drop these comments here from a highly experienced programmer in the games industry. Make of it what you will. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
It's the executives at Focus Entertainment. Regardless of Matt (I think it was) saying that Focus are leaving them to their own devices, I've...
The "for whatever reason" part was in reference to why they used an older build if other bits have already been improved (not a criticism, because...
