To be fair when I looked at Steam DB immediately after there were 354 players shown on SimRail which compared favourably with around 900 for TSW...
If it follows suit from their tram game, from which DTG executed a tactical withdrawal, wouldn't get hopes too high.
Could also be a clash with the E94 pack and TSG shouted loudest. Certainly both are of interest to me.
Was just over on the SimRail forums and looking at the numbers on the servers, the totals are a little worrying. One of the Polish servers is...
We will hang up our tinfoil hats then Liam and hope the renewed GWR licence is giving us either Riviera Line or Newport to Swansea in TSW6! (Now...
Tinfoil hat time bit I'm beginning to wonder if the delay could be because DTG and JT are bickering over price? Maybe JT want more than the...
It’s actually the JT screenshot showing the interior of their forthcoming RMB!
Oh yes the model itself is very nice and I'm sure the physics are accurate too. It's just those godawful quiet and badly looped sounds which let...
Well I assume whatever work Liam has been done is on the master copy (or a copy of the master copy :)), so it’s by no means a stretch that could...
Last time I tried the alpha version it did seem to be working again, perhaps following a silent update. That plus a GUI scenario editor would be a...
And that's another month done... Finished in fine style after discovering the 218 layers into passenger services on MSB. Twilight run, doesn't...
Not sure there are any on the IOW. Not got the 483 but if I recall the 484 has no AWS etc. as not fitted to the infrastructure on the Island (I...
Glad to hear it's good news Matt. Wishing your wife all the best for a swift recovery.
Well I finished my run down to Rainham and it’s going back in the box for another six months. This has to be one of the most miserably wasted...
I know DTG are petrified of touching BML, but a Class 700 (with sounds sorted) Gameplay pack integrated with the timetable would be a far bigger...
It's so annoying we don't have a quicksave key, but I have got in the habit now of hitting Esc (on PC) and making a save at critical moments.
Not being an unofficial moderator (which I hate) but not sure how the finer details of the ATS Manchester route are relevant to what Just Trains...
Biggest appeal is the traction sounds, specifically the EU07 and its derivatives plus the EN57 EMU. But I have to admit, even with the new route...
Out on a walk this afternoon, got to thinking and this may not be a popular view but, in the final analysis, got to say the Dutch route ended up a...
ECML at one time would have been my first shout but there is a sort of subliminal appeal to the long, long run with the Knotweed particularly in...
I have to agree. Despite my long time yearning for the RMB, if I had to choose one of the packs to buy now and another to wait for a sale, it will...
Oh yes, don’t get me started on DTG’s pitiful treatment of steam traction. Both SoS and PFR were announced with huge fanfare, but quietly left to...
Sadly it looks as if my much wanted RMB will be waiting for a sale. It’s not that I can’t afford it but there comes a time to draw the yellow and...
That was built before the more recent mindset at DTG, that only modern sells - at least for in house stuff. When TSW first came out we got a nice...
Following, but I still think the SCS ETS2 bus add on will be the Boss.
Another not sure if previously mentioned… Routed out of Doncaster via the back lines with a service from Leeds, after crossing over the ECML and...
Nor does it rule out the basis of it being an extended GWML for the purposes of TSW6…
Bear in mind the expert 101 (which I don’t own) will probably be in the 40% discount price zone come the Steam sale in a few weeks time. So that...
For the UK I would say BCC, though Goblin and Glossop come a close joint second. Apart from the shonky route building on the southern section I...
It's disgraceful that DTG never sorted out the sound levels. I dusted it off just now to do a run towards the Mastery. The traction sounds are...
It kind of has an iconic appeal as it was one of the routes in Trainmaster 4, which as some might recall was the first "proper" cab view sim...
And from what I can see, though I haven't had FS2020 installed for some time, they never did fix their own particular save game issues either -...
Nothing we haven't seen before. From about May or June everything goes into a holding pattern. Then the focus shifts to Dovetail Direct or...
A rather ambitious shopping list. Not saying some or all would be highly desirable but the chances of anything not set after 2015 unlikely to be...
With you there Bill. The route might look nice and be well built but it’s the ultimate electric bus service. That long 30 MPH drag through the mid...
I would say SPG and Clinchfield beat HSC for scenic quality. Cane Creek too if you ignore some of the odd errors and floating boulders.
I’ve been re-reading the Harry Potter books and the Hogwarts Express journey is a little enigmatic. Platform 9 3/4 is concealed from “Muggles” at...
Oh I agree, the sinuous section on to Newcastle is more interesting. The dilemma for DTG is that extending to York and/or Leeds isn't really far...
I think the dilemma for many is that will be released around the same time as the Class 86, latter TBC of course. So it becomes a matter of triage...
Not the GC but I believe someone made a layout based on Towcester on the old SMJ but in BR Blue days. I could definitely go for that, nice little...
Class 91 with route extended to Darlington for the Rail 200 celebrations. Deltic as the deluxe additional loco. That would be a LAMPOIL ticker.
It's very old so think it pretty much has to be taken as is. Plus Rivet have a rep for not going back and fixing very much at all of their stuff.
If they have any empathy at all with the feedback last year, let's hope so. If only to avoid the pain of reinstalling all that DLC.
I suspect it was a homage, albeit a slightly crude one. "All you had to do was follow the damned train, CJ." The first mission where you realised...
One thing I could go with is an enhanced timetable to buff routes with an otherwise scant train service. For example Kyle line, have a regatta...
This is why it's so maddening that when you take over a train in service, all that stuff should be set up by default. Also why we need a Run 8...
As I noted above, my initial thoughts were on similar lines but the more I play it, the more it nests in my list of guilty pleasure routes. With...
I think it’s almost inevitable at this point it will be TSW6. Though if the marketing people and those at DTG reading the room have any savvy...
They also now have the keys to build the ultimate fictional route - Isle Of Sodor (I’ll get my coat).
The only element I used an exploit was for conductor mode. Everything else, including the AP, have been doing via genuine driving. Still got about...
