One thing that commenters have overlooked is that Rivet do absolutely outstanding visual models of locos. The BR 204 in particular is a work of...
I do feel for the XBox and especially PS players. The PC version(s) are less afflicted; the only issues I have experienced are a huge framerate...
And one more factor: whether DTG can get the necessary license. However much they might want to do any one of several dramatic BNSF routes, it...
Note also that when DTG decide on a route, it may not be the specific route that users have suggested, but rather one which has some aspects of...
What part of "existing rolling stock" don't you understand? The loco builders were otherwise occupied and were not going to be diverted to the...
Train Noir.
While that's true, length alone doesn't have a linear relationship to development cost. The density of stations, the quantity of trackage, the...
That's unfair, and really quite inaccurate. "Couldn't be bothered?" NO; DTG had a block of time during which the timetable/gameplay staff had...
I think this may be part of the timetable issue, and the reason why aside from BML and perhaps Cathcart routes don't use RL timetables as the...
Quite so, but within the game context I think it should tell you "wait for traffic to clear," or at least get the slightly comforting "wait for...
Exactly. It would also permit adding AI Desiros to Glasgow Central in Cathcart.
And Class 66 Well, the 375 was a mod of the ECW 377
Two new trains with a route isn't excessive or unprecedented in TSW2. SKA came with the ICE3 and 442 (which was a ground-up new train, not a...
UE4 only has 32 audio channels- that isn't very many at all. Compare TS Classic's 256 channels.
If it were standard policy to design timetables from the start based on the RL timetables, this issue would never arise. (There is actually a...
You learn something new every day. Although the game is a bit misleading telling you "Wait until 1552" when you aren't going to get cleared until...
Except then you'd have GO running in San Francisco.
"protection switch" or "derailler switch."
Nothing "rush hour" about 4000+ services....
On the Selhurst Depot Arrival track, just south of Selhurst station:[ATTACH] [ATTACH] This makes the 313 service 5B90 (Part 3) unplayable,...
DTG never, ever announce dates in streams.
Or buy it now and don't play the routes until fixed, which makes you no worse off than not buying until then, and you will save money. Although...
I think DTG are going to have to, at the least for the sake of newbies, casual players and for that matter both the non-hardcore and sticklers for...
If changing the physics messes up the timetable, then that suggests that the timetable was constructed by auto-running AI trains. If they had...
That's been fixed, except on some Preserved routes that Adam's team haven't got to yet. But every route with the TSW@ sky switch on, that is all...
And the Deluxe Edition costs barely more than the RH bundle. $49.99 in the US, for the three RH and three base routes. So the "season pass" in...
In case you hadn't noticed, DTG haven't included more than 2 locos in a route since the very first releases.
Sure. They could include with each route every train that ever ran on that route or even to adjacent platforms. That would be..... uneconomical.
The irony is that the Rivet version uses AP sounds too.
Oh, do please get over yourself! The discounted bundle was always going to be a limited-time offer, that was said right from the start. What,...
No, it's practicality. When SKA was released, HMA and the 423 did not exist. The 422, from RRO, did. They either used a train in stock, or had no...
Moreover, in many forums the etiquette is quite the opposite: you'll be told off for starting a new thread if one on that topic already exists,...
Interesting. Worth a try; certainly I've noticed that the brutal framerate slowdown at East Croydon dissipates if one looks anywhere in the cab...
I find electrics the more interesting and fun the older and less sophisticated they are. The BR 155 is great to wrestle with; the ICE3...
Crossing what in America are called switches. Since the wheels are crossing gaps between rails they make a "clackety-clack" sound.
This happens at Brighton on every 387 service (maybe the 377s too). Tay95's workaround is the temporary solution: pull up to the platform, save,...
The Game Pass version is fine, especially since it's free, but no DLC will be available for it. And if you buy for XBox, you are NOT entitled to...
All right, this is an odd little glitch, just curious, although it might be a symptom of something systemic: If you drive 1A99 Brighton-Victoria,...
Does any AI traffic run to Platforms 1-6?
If you look at the game files, NTP is named "TS2Prototype-WindowsNoEditor-LeedsManchester.pak"
The MS Store, Steam and Epic versions of the game are mutually incompatible, even though they all run on Windows. And the MS Store (for PC)...
Dear God, what a boring stretch of countryside that is! I'm thinking (a part of) Glasgow-Edinburgh, with Class 380s or 385s that can layer into...
I wasn't expecting them; that would require a significant rebuild of the existing models, not just a repaint. Besides, NS has been progressively...
Then it becomes a question of economics; DTG would have to look at its spreadsheets and make a business decision as to whether making a new loco...
Well, there is some timetable pressure- there is a schedule, and a Class 09 ain't exactly hauling butt up those grades......
Yeah, and some guys' hearing requires frequency reproduction up past 30 kHz....
