Apart from the over effective brakes which DTG still can't get round to fixing.

This must be the weekend popcorn thread!

It was certainly common for some older UK traction units to be fitted with overspeed trips, though those would only kick in if the train was under...

Also needs Matt P or whoever is in charge of such matters, to review whether an AI SPAD should terminate the player run, particularly if on a...

Yes as much as I love what Liam has done with GWE, he should have had some support from the top at the least in terms of getting a 165 in there...

Or Spirit Of Steam. Where it took Matt P himself a year to track down the cause and arrange for it to be fixed.

Yes it will be like those unrealistic scenarios on PFR or ECML where you had to speak to Emily whatshername or take operational railway...

Could this be the case of another service elsewhere on the route having a SPAD but terminates the player run as a result?

Yes indeed. Viewliners, Superliners, their version of the F40, the Genesis locos etc. Yes some would only see once a day usage on the routes but a...

I can only compare between my potato PC and PS5. Both have issues, the main thing being stutters and sound distortion. It is very much route...

Slightly OT but I remember flying over where Chernobyl and Pripyat should be in FS 2020 and the area was just a blank texture.

It was kind of a strange decision on the OG route, to depict west of Stockley Jn in various states of pre electrification. A snapshot of the route...

That may be so, but I get the impression DTG are very cautious about going down even that road. Otherwise by now we might well have seen the...

Well it would have been nice. I never actually finished the original or DLOGW Journey mode, believe it or not, but to do so now means loading into...

Yes, it will be dragging me off SimRail for a few sessions.

DTG (Matt P) have actually stated there are no licensing issues with SNCF, they just don’t seem uninterested in doing a French route. The ones...

Could be Windows Update running in the background. That does sap a lot of resources and in the case of TSW has occasionally prevented it from...

Slightly at a tangent, but I do want to suggest a way to make this appeal to the more serious simmers is to facilitate porting over “real” trains...

One (constructive) suggestion... It's a great shame the remaster and new timetable didn't get its own Journey Mode. I'm guessing the only way to...

Now doing a stopper up from Reading to Paddington, lovely. Am I correct in thinking the 166 got updated sounds? Certainly seems that way to my...

That looks superb.

Via Bescot?

There's also an official thread in the Feedback forum too!

Okay... To me £25 for Standard and £30 for Deluxe would be a better starting point, particularly for grizzled old curmudgeons like me to come off...

That could be a catalyst to get me to part with my money.

Yes it's nicely done. Have put some general comments in the main forum thread. One or two to mention here - first as I noted Reading station...

My word, it’s brilliant isn’t it. Yes some of the layers are more representative but by god the route is alive with trains. Just done a HST run...

On that theme another niggle is no heavy trucks on US roads and freeways. You get a few static models parked up here and there but nothing moving...

Re the Class 124's... They were fitted with 230hp Leyland Albion diesel engines same as the Class 115's out of Marylebone. Some of those have been...

Superb. Let the thrash begin, well after tea.

Can anyone confirm you can now run the HST’s with cab doors ajar, to admit the thrash?

Not to mention the amount of tunnels that would need light baking, it’s ATO with platform screen doors and while the 345’s look smart they are...

Allegedly Mark Hopwood (GW MD) has conceded the current IET seats are unfit for purpose and there are plans to refurbish. Mind the creamy canvas...

Bring it forth, DTG. Would willingly buy a Class 124 or Class 25 add on to subsidise the project.

Yes presumably OP means HST in original livery and seating (orange in first class, turquoise blue in second) and Paxman Valenta engines which are...

The Matrix coaches are lovely. Got a fair few myself. Prices very pocket friendly too, even without a sale discount.

Can you elaborate, Matt? Are we talking Trainz style DCC controls? Railroader level steam simulation? SimRail steam simulation (when you can get...

While wishing DTG every success with the new venture and not ruling out trying it at some point (in a very deep sale), I do worry that this has...

That could be its redeeming feature. Also hanging on to my credit as the route extension for SimRail should drop in the next few weeks (hopefully).

Nothing at the moment. Mildmay and MIA not in my collection but not at just 20% off for city electric bus routes similar to those already owned....

So... wondering how condensed the map will be? From what I've seen and read, Sodor is something like 60 miles east to west and 50 miles north to...

Could be one for a sale if it ticks certain boxes.

H'mmm not much in there I need and only 20% off MIA and Mildmay not an incentive to spend money put aside for the likes of Medway Valley and Crewe...

I meant as in realistic physics and train handling? Well as good as they can make steam work in the Simugraph environment.

Much will hinge on whether there is an option to drive with realistic controls and physics. Or will it be some sort of godawful DCC type system?

Yes to be fair that’s what many of us said at the time. interesting this already got its new forum section whereas Metro Rivals hasn’t. All...

I will be otherwise engaged… [ATTACH]

Not seen the full announcement but not unexpected. As said, if done decently with a geographically accurate Sodor and the option to drive...

ECW probably the low hanging fruit of their portfolio, so far as a remaster is concerned. Arosa and WCL basically need starting over. And TBH,...
