I see what you did there ;) But yeah, I would love for them to include the system with Rush Hour. I think DTG could implement many random...
Something I have been thinking about for a while, especially when arriving slightly late to a station, is that the passenger boarding could be...
I don't know how it works IRL but I agree with you that a system that requires drivers memorizing speed limits and their locations is incredibly...
First I would say that there is more to physics realism then adhesion but perhaps you are more focused on UK rolling stock. In that case I do...
To be fair, DB628 did also say driving physics. I challenge you to name another TSW locomotive that has as realistic physics as the BR101.
You've seen this in BR101 specifically?
Haha. Thanks for the tip!
It would have been nice with an achievement for completing all the BR101 timetable services :cool: Not sure what I will do in TSW2 now until the...
You can release train brake during door closing sequence so that only loco brake is applied after doors have closed, then when you apply power AFB...
It's weird because sometimes there are 2 signals showing Ks2 but other times only one signal is Ks2 the following is Hp0. Usually it goes like...
Yeah that's what I suspected :/. It is a TSW2-wide issue. I have encountered it on HMA as well (S-bahn at the last two signals approaching...
Interesting. If we compare the video you posted to the following video of a departing BR101: [MEDIA] they sound almost exactly the same. Perhaps...
I made a timetable run last night where I tried to use regenerative braking as much as possible (wherever it was safe to do so) which meant...
I don't think that is true (fortunately). Nearly all my fixes are about brake performance which plays quite a small part in terms of running time....
I'm really glad you did. It is a fantastic product.
I didn't even notice that wording. Yikes. Might be wise to get some perspective, lol.
No worries, I didn't perceive it as an attack, and I appreciate you giving me the context for that quote I vaguely remembered :)
Thank you for the clarification. I still stand by my second paragraph (DTG must have known about the bugs and performance of ECML S during QA and...
I absolutely disagree about the IC2. The BR101 is, in my opinion, the best DLC so far for TSW. Right now we only have one route with BR101 layers...
Breaking news! *holds ear piece* I've just been told that the BR143 will be repainted in Amtrak colours to stand in for the AEM-7 and the BR182...
Was it misinformation or did he work on the BR101 10 weeks but was only paid for 4 weeks? If that is true, it would imply that DTG are only...
I think you're right. It does look like the el/pn selector changes stuff on the TRAXX locos.
Thank you, breblimator, for making this challenge. It was really fun and you've made me a "HUD-free believer". Before I didn't have the F5 or...
If you mean that it takes 5 minutes to release the brakes after you have made maybe a 1-1.5bar application then I feel very confident in saying...
I think EMUs can be excluded for the reasons you mentioned, afaik there are no German EMUs with separate E-brake and air brake handle. It seems...
Yes, that part surprised me since I have heard from different people to use the blended braking. In terms of energy efficiency, using up E-brake...
Thank you! I have a notepad document with weights and brake weights but I found a link that pretty much has all my data already:...
Glad to hear the video worked! "I have a lot to learn" Don't we all hehe.:D
In adverse weather conditions such as in this scenario it is important to brake early. Its much better to be slow and have to creep up to a signal...
The only context I have is that I got the quote from a Swedish driver on a Swedish train forum in discussion about German trains (more...
I've been running without any HUD (except km to next station which I don't think you can get rid of?) for a while now. The beauty of German...
Thank you. I couldn't find sggmrss in the table of brake weight's I've accumulated but I do have brake weights for the sggmrs wagon which is the...
Excited to try it out! I'm currently on 25 completed timetable runs with the BR101. It's an addictive loco :D
Haha :D I guess this is what I do when I'm bored lol. I also do it because I think the fixes aren't that difficult for DTG to implement (I'd say...
Can someone that owns RRO confirm whether the new freight wagons that are included are the Sdggmrss 6-axle twin-container wagons with Jacobs...
I already made a thread with my results of testing (primarily the brakes) on German passenger trains and locos in a previous thread in the...
I wonder who owns the raw recordings from the VR BR185/BR145 etc, maybe it would be worthwhile for DTG to buy/license it.
The BR146 sounds absolutely atrocious but I wouldn't say that the BR185 sounds very good either (better of course but still not really realistic)....
I was bored and did some brake testing on a flat stretch of track for different German passenger trains and locos. After I measured the stopping...
That's why I wrote "update" and not "upgrade" ;)
I found this cab ride of Nuremberg - Stuttgart. I'm not sure if all the IC1 trains have been updated to IC2/ICE4 but perhaps the section Stuttgart...
I would have to agree. I tested the BR101 against values calculated from UIC documents and showed my results in this thread. As you can see from...
This route would be fantastic in TSW2.
Not *that* limited imo. You can run each train realistically in one direction (and unrealistically the other), but then you can run some special...
I love the BR101, it is one of my favorite German locomotives and easily my favorite loco in TSW2. Unfortunately they seem to be nearing...
With "high speed" I meant the upper region of what PZB allows (130-160 ish), I should've been more clear. Thanks for the informative answer!
Hmm. Was this on PC? When I pass the yellow/yellow Vr0 signal before Mülheim the yellow 1000 Hz indication never lights up in the cab, but I get...
I can give an interesting service as well: IC 2255 - Duisburg Hbf - Bochum Hbf. It has quite a few red signals due to (I think) trains going in...
Yeah, I did some calculations and since the BR101 has electric brakes step 6 should be sufficient. I think the electric brakes are what makes the...
I'm more familiar with Swedish trains that have in-cab signaling (called ATC) that will give advance warning sooner than 1 km before a red signal...
