Yes, it really gives the impression of actually driving and not just watching the scenery go by. I got fed up with TSC partly because of that,...
The AI messed up with the DVT lights on that one...
Exactly. But not only that, you have for example Cheddington which is teeming with people in the middle of the off-peak hours... I wonder to see...
Yes, unfortunately, like a chain whose links are placed side by side without being connected to each other...
Don't forget your astronaut suit when you leave home ! :D Nothing human is infallible. Humans will be banned from driving vehicles sooner or later.
This reminds us that the passengers spawning system should be improved to avoid having people waiting on platforms where no train stops... (among...
You will therefore need an emulator to run it ?
It seems logical to me that all the versions of something already available in the game are gradually introduced. If it's done by a developer that...
What shocks me about what I've seen of this game is that you can barely see the left rearview mirror and not the right one at all... If it's a...
Aren't they needed on the Fort William and Inverness portions to act as ETHELs ? Or is it a plan to use the former Nightstars generators (ERS)...
That's what it looks like, indeed. Some restrictions that apply to the player's service don't affect those AI controlled ones it seems. They can...
Yeah the behavior is erratic, sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. For example when leaving the train and the AI takes over, the AWS keeps...
Interesting. Incidentally, I've experienced the opposite yesterday, where a Class 66 on a freight run came with passenger timings set (on WCMLS)...
Yeah small things often matter. Le diable est dans les détails. :D
Absolutely needed, indeed. But I seem to recall someone here saying safety systems and AI driving do not go well together...
So you didn't play TS, you didn't see that after all these years, a large portion of the British rail network was represented ? With the release...
I think you're missing the point there. They are two different games, true, but both pretend to be train simulators. If something is better in one...
Unfortunately, you need to have a pretty good route knowledge because the HUD doesn't display the correct speed limits for the Night Riviera.
I wouldn't mind having several versions of the same route. After all, as someone said elsewhere, today's present is tomorrow's past.
Absolutely, and it's a problem. It's worth noting that the Ju52 in Flight Simulator came in two versions, the original one, and the preserved one....
I've seen so many films dealing with historical subjects that were completely off the mark, that I'm now wary of anything that's supposed to...
Why did I mention Simrail ? Because it seems to me that it's a matter of consistency, and that TSW is, and will remain, an assembly of standalone...
We'll never get two versions of the same route. Never happened in TS after all those years iirc. Absolutely, but better that than nothing... I...
Generally, when it's asked nicely, they do it. :D
The problem with a mix of modern and backdated routes, and especially in comparison to Simrail, is that we will end up with a network that is not...
I didn't buy the NLL/Mildmay route, but sure will do if it one day include the West London line (to Clapham Junction)...
Absolutely. And they even exceed the max permitted speed of the locomotive (at least they did). It's been sorted out on certain routes (WCMLS for...
That's absolutely true, but we must also acknowledge those that have a purely utilitarian view of transportation, we can't blame them for seeking...
Nothing weird about it mate, it's just a symptom of you being... a railfan ! I've done almost all french routes around Paris that way over the...
Thank you mate, I fully return the compliment. :D Yeah they worked a lot on it. That said, they're obviously not great in terms of comfort, and...
Absolutely agree, and would appeal to our german and swiss friends too.
Paris - Mantes via Poissy is 57km iirc.
I certainly hope something is planned for the upcoming Trent Valley at least.
I certainly agree, but it was perhaps easier for the Simrail development team since they came later. They simply did the opposite of what DTG was...
I like the idea of building up a network, extending from a core route and then going further away. They started with a route that was roughly...
Rock'n'roll will never die :cool:
Absolutely, really lovely indeed. :love: That's right, it is indeed the first suburban railway network in France, with its Standard DC EMUs (Z...
I'd love to get a french route with a Paris terminus ! :love: St-Lazare network is indeed a really busy one with interesting services patterns,...
Holy LOVE I wasn't aware of this thread, there's some good stuff from you there animalkosmik :cool:
What about buying the entire TSW DLCs collection ? :D
TS lacked a nicely done Class 47. It was a good thing to quickly introduce one in TSW. Now we need a 37 that is on par with the AP one.
Better that than nothing, but would be nice if you could lie down tho, turn on the different lights, etc. In this regard, TSC MaxTracks Mk5s had...
And why not some nice Mk3 sleepers to drive Carlisle - Crewe (and vice versa) trains uninterrupted !!! Those could then be modified to feature...
Yeah in France trains run on the left-hand side too, except in Alsace-Lorraine which was in german hands when railways were built (the 1870 - 1918...
Yes it's fine for the other subclasses. Absolutely. Had a drive recently on ECW with an Electrostar, and it was sooo confortable to drive in...
Yeah, whether it's the suspensions or the cab sway, it makes driving so much more realistic. It's really something that was missing in TSC, where...
Yes, do it all the way to Aberdeen ! :D
triznya.andras yes what I meant is that the player service always has priority over AI traffic. If an AI service start behind you, you'll never...
Fingers crossed "route hopping 2.0" will do much better performance wise... ;)
I understand your enthusiasm, particularly when it comes to rolling stock available and choice of routes. But what about that thing where you...
