I've backed them up and write protected the files in the DLC folder too (though not to say Steam doesn't have a back door way round that).
Why not make Buchan Lines for TSW as well?
Good point… Of course, in the case of engine shutdowns unless you investigate and remedy the cause (maybe low oil or coolant) it wouldn’t...
Isn’t this route still in the 0-3 months category on the Roadmap? Which technically means mid January at the latest. One of the reasons I’m loathe...
Also slam door. Without CDL, entirely passenger operated. Closed by passengers, station staff or the Guard. With CDL, released by the Guard but...
It would be a superb addition to TSW, the major stumbling block being who would build it? So far as we know, only Union Workshop are actively...
One thing that has been debunked is why we need to redownload everything. Putting the original Caltrain pak files from TSW5 into 6 and they worked...
I actually quite enjoy DV in measured doses but the map does get repetitive. Could do with some new routes to play with, maybe something more linear.
For the UK… Loco wise Class 55 Deltic and Class 50. DMU we need a Class 108, 117 and 120 plus a Thumper. Electric. Well a Class 81 to 85 to...
Sadly too much for a single TSW route. I suspect we will eventually get something South Western but it’s going to be the usual 40 or 50 mile route...
Agree. Sideways sway just as common if not more so than vertical bouncing. And older Mark One stock tended to oscillate on the centre bogie pivots...
Then why post such a clickbait title? If you wanted a general moan about the state of the game there’s already several threads available including...
The nerf does appear to have gone too far. I left my faults set at medium after the patch debacle but two runs over Riviera with the Voyager and...
Autumn sale on Steam has been and gone with a week long encore from DTG themselves. Kind of hard to miss… Next one will be in around two months...
As I mentioned earlier in the thread, JT have apparently stated Carlisle to Glasgow is in the too difficult basket :( , with sadly no way to...
Ultimately it’s also about the comms. We seem to get less and less detailed feedback on what is actually being worked. Look at all the threads for...
Actually I would mildly disagree with that. Having bought the full package and having all layers on the Steam version, when I fire up the PS5...
Superb classic movie, with suitably grim ending. I also remember reading the book years ago.
I always thought that a bonus actually, more chocolate!
Unlikely as Caltrain seem to have slammed the door big time in DTG's face as regards licencing.
Problem with going north on the ECML is that Doncaster to York and on to Darlington at least are incredibly dull stretches of railway. Going south...
Original suggestion as noted far too long. I wouldn't be averse to the Albula Line but it would have to be the whole shebang from Chur to St...
WCMLS is still not a great route but not quite as bad as some would have you believe. No one else is likely to do that section so is what it is....
ECML but something around Newcastle and set in an earlier era to the current route - preferably with Deltics and Valenta HST's. The WCML is going...
As I tend to cringe at the “whoop, whoop” milk float sound the 323 makes on pullaway this is an instance where I too might welcome the 730 if it...
Have to disagree with earlier comments about the ICM. It seems overpowered and accelerates rapidly even in only throttle position three or four....
Just all those acres and acres of rail served locations and yards standing forlorn and empty…
Plus it was a bit of a cheek by DTG not running the 8 miles or so down into Derby, finishing at Ambergate instead. But for how steam is in TSW, I...
DTG have still not mastered lighting in UE! I’m guessing no game engine is going to do ambient light spread or light pollution as it appears IRL...
Even though you wouldn’t need to in real life, sometimes in game you do have to request the signal in order to get the shunt signal into an...
One of the loading services actually had you as driver, somewhat unrealistically perhaps, on the gantry doing the ethanol loading. But when I came...
One thing this does flag up though, is the completely unnecessary step of re-downloading our DLC going from TSW5 to 6, on PC at least. The pak...
Now that makes me very hyped! Day One barring any last minute hitches. All we need now is a decent set of late Mark One’s the build with the more...
Perks up with interest… Is that a definite on the Mark 2D variant? I must have skipped past that in the description. If so that promotes this to...
Good choice! Make sure to pick up the 86 pack at some point which adds the Mark Two “coffins” and the legendary RMB buffet car! And for an...
It’s just a crying shame that DTG turned their backs on any further steam traction in the game. PFR is a very nice run though.
I will listen out next time I'm on board a train, but it is a common mistake amongst those not familiar with the phonetic alphabet or untrained in...
One assumes they did some market research and spoke with the various focus groups. However if this is the net result of a solution to requests for...
Preston to Carlisle by a mile. The Dutch route is okay but got boring very quickly. A to B and clockface timetable. The trains are nice but...
One slightly pedantic observation... When the auto announcer states the BT Police text number it should be "zero" as in the number not "oh" in...
Roger that! Files copied over. Files write protected. Loaded into San Francisco and Caltrain there in all its glory. TSW5 uninstalled again....
The problem is, so long as DTG's LAMPOIL is fixated on electric interurban routes with busy timetables (even if A to B and all the same type of...
In progress now. With all but the Caltrain stuff unticked it's about a 10Gb download. The only caveat is to finish off the current run I have in...
Nail. On. Head. Though to put things in perspective, over in Trainz world I've been trying to grab some bits off the Download Station for a model...
Discussing the debranding on Facebook it seems I am not going mad in that some of the stations have lost buildings and some of the lineside seems...
Neutral sections add to the immersion and if this is a simulation rather than a train game then they should be functional. That said, for the UK...
Technically the pure WCML would be extending from Milton Keynes to Rugby then via the Trent Valley to meet up with the AAB route at Stafford....
The problem here I can see, is unless DTG or another 3P can come to agreement with SHG, you are not going to see the most logical step which is...
I suspect this is similar to the blanking of some Journey Mode elements on the BR 294 as well. May well be more lurking on other routes which...
Well I for one prefer the engine sounds being piped in otherwise it would be a boring drive. The problem is that they are not loud or deep enough...
