Easy: WCMLOS is a straight A-B route, no variety, little replayability. Freight, passenger, it's all the same run, maybe stop at Lancaster maybe...
Reading to Bristol, which would complete Brunel's original GWML, and be far more do-able than trying to run it all the way to Exeter in one go.
"DTG's close supervision" may mean Lukas, who works for both outfits We have no idea what the IP and licensing provisions of the contract are
Went with NTP (very close over TVL, but TVL remains fun whereas NTP is overall darker and thus hurt more by old lighting; besides, it doesn't have...
It seems that at one time Victory Works was interested in doing so- that is, until SOS came out and it was apparent how inadequate the steam...
The V 60 saga. In the beginning there was the V 60, with a 12-cyl Maybach diesel. Some of these were built with reinforced frames to carry iron...
I think a lot of it had to do with a problem, on older routes, of AI trains running unrealistically fast: they ran at full line speeds without...
Not only that, but m-Wagen too.
That's very kind. Actually the real giveaway is the green upholstery, which I couldn't do anything about
The route itself is fine, but the trains are awful
Remember, GNT requires track equipped for it, and I believe the only routes which currently have it in TSW are Tharandter Rampe and...
Unfortunately you drew the short straw- the 232s were the first (1953) production series and were built as 3rd class coaches. When DB abolished...
I don't quite understand- the unbranded ones are reskins, after all, and if you can take a Gatwick 387 and paint it green surely you can also slap...
The Main-Spessart route is locked into 2016-17, when the Rampe and Heigenbrucken were still in use before the new tunnel bypassed them.
Sadly, I doubt it. Layers and formations have to be created as part of the timetable. So unless TSG were already planning this when they did the...
Dynamic braking: it's important to realize that the dynamic brakes and independent brakes both operate on the same wheels- the locomotive's wheels...
Wow! Just, WOW!
I do not for the life of me understand how Morristown is doing so well, because either A) DTG made a horrible route, or B) DTG did an outstanding...
IIRC, consoles use a shared RAM/VRAM memory pool, in which case 4k would definitely be a major factor
I wonder how much of this issue is caused by users trying to run in 4k rather than 1080
It also makes a lot of sense for traffic spacing. If you are running behind a manifest doing 100, it's pointless to go faster since in catching up...
An underrated scenic route that doesn't have performance issues is Vorarlberg
Well, if nothing else the Mk 1 coaches and freight wagons layer into other routes
I think you'd like Semmeringbahn and Mittenwaldbahn. Twisty single-track alpine routes with wonderful views. Mittenwald also has the fabulous old...
FFS, DTG couldn't even get steam from the valve gear!
Nope. Just got nuked doing 15.
What are the TPWS protection loops at the Euston platforms set to?
Puh-leez. Do you really think that DTG have some secret hatred of XBox players that causes them to withhold sales from you? Microsoft runs the...
BML with an even bigger timetable runs fine, save a slowdown around Croydon
Actually it’s very useful for traffic control
Mostly the fact that if I buy a new train, I want to see it when I drive the route, but if it's isolated off in its own timetable, like say the...
What if - just spitballin' here - you created a layer for 387s which, in the base route, has a substitution percentage for unbranded BML 387s set...
Which raises a valid point- to future proof themselves, DTG are going to have to implement ETCS, and not just for German routes. They already...
The complaint however is valid. Last night I did a light loco move in a 185 on the Ludwigsbahn, and the game still held me to 100. I have also...
That's my hope, that the licensing team were able to persuade Great Western to license both the GWR 387s and the FGW Dynamic Lines livery. (I...
That isn't necessarily the case, depending on how you define "new product." Certainly the engines would need their existing physics models...
It would be great, but Liam has said right from the start that he is making no changes to the route at all: just rolling stock upgrades, cosmetics...
Massive PITA, and DTG should be ashamed for allowing it this long. There is an (inconvenient) workaround: switch to an exterior camera and then...
There is a HUGE difference - especially in price - between a PC you can use for websurfing, spreadsheets, email and watching videos, and the...
GWE was TSW's first passenger route, first UK route, first route with stations, passengers, coaches with interiors and operating doors, first with...
You're not wrong. I never get upset if DTG doesn't get around to fixing a wonky headlight, but the steam locomotives they sold us come rather...
Certainly there will be an appreciable time lag. First of course TSG have to get the 23 and its route finished and released. Then there will be...
While I agree about that particular service, remember that the pool of rolling stock represents the early 2010s when the route is set, not the present
Depends on your system. MAC is definitely better if it can run on a heavyweight PC. Console or potato, CCN is the better bet; it's surprisingly...
What you might consider, both for the above factor and to keep the numbers reasonable, is to run a playoff just for standalone loco DLCs,...
In that connection: IF you have doubleheaded 218s, and your Fahrplan goes above 110, make sure BOTH locos are switched to high-speed...
I'm saying that going with blue-ivory instead of chromoxidgrun and altrot would create a distorted picture of the era, the same way that the...
I think there's a lot to hat. For example, every year Bremen-Oldenburg has done much better than the very, very similar Hamburg-Lubeck, and I...
am 2. April 1974 präsentierte die DB eingeladenen Pressevertretern die "neuen Farben" während einer Sonderfahrt mit der "türkis/graubeige" (so...
I get it, Maik Goltz, I think historically I've been more sensitive than some to the time-money equation of putting out DLC. I would say, however,...
