The entire unit-selector thingy is just about trying to compensate for the losses in the control cable for the dynamic brakes - nothing else. My...
Thanks for your detailed explanations; really helps people like me who don't keep up as much with the more technical elements of gaming. I guess...
Have to agree with this. I've yet to see any game where I'm blown away by ray tracing, it mostly looks marginally better at best. To be fair, I...
See it. Say it. Sorted.
No, it's permanently in mode U. The SIFA fuse is dead in front of you around knee height of the driver. The PZB fuse is in a little plastic box...
Fictional routes and unbranded liveries are a hard pass for me. When I play a simulator, I want realism, not fantasy. It’s already annoying for me...
Don’t think that would make much sense. People would just say yes to everything and you’ve learnt nothing. In the survey, you get a ranking of...
They're rarely about console-specific stuff (barring some announcements from DTG). A Playstation player will usually post in the PS section for...
What's not to love? Semaphores and the Br 628... What a nice combination, and in mint green on top! I'm very excited for this :)
That makes sense. Thank you very much for double-checking. With the change in the speed control, I can indeed see it being very useful in real...
I think you mixed up Freier and Bedingter there :) I've actually got a query about the Bedingter Auslauf. How often is it generally used in real...
Yeah, that's why I have taken to putting the force selector to zero before messing with the speed selector. Really, the more you drive the 143...
That's exactly the reason why. We're talking about using solely the electric brake (by having the speed selector in "on" with the force selector...
and that's why I said: You take the speed selector down to off before you start braking. That's the procedure taught in the manuals and training...
No. I mean, yes, in theory, but no. What happens when you do that is that the loco thinks it's been overspeeding and will hammer on the brakes as...
That's what you do in real life but unfortunately, we don't have the Freier Auslauf button in TSW. As Jonne1184 said though, reducing the force...
Probably a kink in DTG's signalling. I doubt the game separates Sh 1 and Hp 1 properly since both are "green". You're right, of course, Sh 1 is a...
Correct. Matt explained as such when the TSC route was released. For reference: [ATTACH] [IMG]
This, absolutely. Generally, I would like some older US coaches, be they heavyweights or streamliners. As for German content, we’ve finally got...
As far as I recall, Matt said that track-laying is a rather uncomplicated affair that sometimes happens months before any actual work on the route...
I see your point. Personally speaking, I'd also be fine with pdf maps of the routes giving information on the gradients. What annoys me is simply...
No, we're talking about two different suggestions here: Detach the grade indicator from the speedometer. Many in this thread, including me, turn...
Second that. I was blown away while playing that purely based on the fascinating features they've managed to put into the controller. And...
I'm not going to read too much into this. I'm in a festive mood, love my model railway, and think the idea is cute. I'll probably pick this up at...
I think you're really going to enjoy Zusi 3 then, looks much better than 2 with actual scenery and HD (and some 4k) cabs. The menus may be as...
Every reason to be proud of yourself! I have similar recollections of my early days with PZB. The countless GPAs on HRR used to drive me crazy...
Good job, I'm sure a lot of people will really appreciate it. Anyone looking for a quick reference guide to GPAs can look here as well.
I wouldn't call a major safety system being non-functional in the cab a little thing for software claiming to be a simulator (since I recall Matt...
Looks very professional, well done! :)
The Bügelfalte Br 110 in Zusi has the advantage of being the only Einheitselok with an HD cab. Lovely to drive and pretty to look at. Not...
Not being in a position to buy and play the DLC right now, I skipped through some YouTube videos and observed the braking behaviour. Again, I...
That seems weird to me. In Zusi, the n-Wagen brakes are quite awful and you need a good run-up of rather harsh braking to stop them. I mean, Zusi...
I was referring to this: If you want this to actually look realistic, it's going to be resource hungry. Fluid dynamics are notoriously...
I don’t quite understand your obsession with listing terms in countless languages, but I’ll help you get it right. A hump yard is not the same as...
That’s a brilliant idea, actually, using a glass of water or maybe a cup of coffee. Only thing I don’t know is how resource-hungry it would be,...
And the upper one is copied from here (minus the inserted hyperlink):
The lower post is just copied as well: Definitely seems like a bot or something.
... and they've got 140s :love: [IMG] [IMG] Source I know I'm getting greedy seeing how we're getting the Br 110, but a PRESS Br 140 would make...
Pretty much. In a nutshell, the Pressnitztalbahn society, founded to rebuild the former railway of the same name as a heritage line, wanted to...
The normal braking procedure is as follows: Completely shut off the speed selector. Brake using the driver's brake valve by reducing the brake...
e.leerentveld, pretty sure meridian#2659's post related to the OP. And might I ask, why are you looking for a program in that sort of situation?...
I'm in favour of this, too. I'm especially intrigued by redrev1917's idea. Getting accurate numbers feels a bit like 'cheating' so to say, but...
I think what Maik is trying to explain is that it's all down to Simugraph. Simugraph differs from all other train sim engines in that it tries to...
Yes, I imagine so. The Karlsruher Kopf uses the KWS system for remote control whereas the newer DoStos use the ZWS system. The only other class in...
If the 110 is anything close to the level of quality the 101 has, it'll instantly become my new favourite. That's not even mentioning the...
Ah, just looked it up. Shame, I thought the N28h was used universally in all of the Einheitseloks (apart from the Br 141, obviously). Well, one...
Well, I caught up in the thread and skipped through the preview - only felt right that I do so as quickly as possible given that I was always...
Wow, what did I miss in a few days. Br 110 and n-Wagen in TSW? Karslruher Kopf? Am I dreaming? I’ll be watching with great interest. Here’s hoping...
The 101 services on HRR are quite good. The services on other routes are mostly just straight green runs whereas HRR makes you push the 101 to its...
Yes, please! Give me all of the old electrics :D
