Because as of next spring, every train in Scotland will wear Saltire Blue and Scotrail branding.
Not necessarily, but applicable in this case, because Scotrail, with whom DTG have a deal in place, will be the single brand and livery across the...
Blood-and-custard 314, pre-weathering [IMG] [IMG] [IMG] I beat my head against the colors for a while until I finally learned that this...
I don't believe 9 or 12 car consists were used on CC in real life.
Because Microsoft clearly gives preference to the big distributors: EA, Bethesda, Ubisoft, Blizzard, Square Enix and Microsoft/Turn 10 itself....
A new DTG franchise opportunity: Train Mechanic Sim World!
In any event, DTG's license for Scotrail's branding and livery will apply to every route and train in Scotland.
I concur except on the "variety" score- because it's nothing but commuter rail. Yes, there are multiple routes which keep it from becoming as...
Correct. Currently there are only two console builds, for XBox One and PS4; next-gen consoles run them via backwards compatibility but it's...
Yes, but Scotrail will be taking over directly as the TOC on all Scottish routes, in place of the current private franchisees like Abellio, Cross...
And a fairly long-lasting and extensive one, since effective March 2022 Scotrail will be re-nationalized, so that one license will enable DTG to...
Some larger stations have 2 of a type, and Glasgow Central has 2 of each.
Not hopeless- you just need to adjust your projection settings. LD's tools and menus are not especially intuitive, but once you're used to them...
Seems like Scotrail have embraced the partnership with DTG as a promising marketing opportunity.
AIUI, the only freight locos that run on this section of the NEC are 4-axle, GPs and Uxx-Bs.
It happens because hitting "return to free roam" while sitting in the driver's seat is interpreted by the game as you having just sat down in the...
Add r.BloomQuality=0 to your engine.ini file.
The underwhelming passenger AI is a longstanding issue with TSW, which is scheduled to be completely overhauled with Rush Hour this summer. Until...
I doubt that there are no signals over the trackage CSX uses- it's only been since 2019 they got in-cab signaling backfitted to all their locos,...
RL UK drivers certainly do use visual cues. I recall, I think from a post here, learning that drivers had been using a particular discarded paint...
...like in the game.
The OHLE in GWE is still in the process of being installed. Even where there are wires overhead, I believe in 2016-17 they only carried current...
But you would have to be able to see that OHLE post.....
Was there any set relationship between the carriage numbers in a train, like the Germans do? Or was it essentially random?
This is apparently a welcome first. I've never had custom-liveried MUs spawn as AI trains before, only individual locos and wagons.
Can someone explain the dual numbers? [IMG] This one has the expected TOPS number at the front- but what is the number in white on the side?
I would much rather see the Acela as a DLC than the Avelia.
Matt has said in a stream that the F40-PH3 will be significantly reworked; while they will (sensibly) use the CalTrain CAT-2 as the starting...
Ironic photo: \ [IMG] The 37 doing the hauling is much older than the 314 headed for the breakers
Yup. Reminiscent of the lovely early BR express coach livery
Looks wonderful! However, I believe that by the time the Blue Saltire livery appeared, that is during the time period of the TSW route, the...
Just to add to Lamplight's suggestion: it's pitch dark, so turn on the cab light immediately or you'll never find the MU2A valve!
The scenario works fine if you work fast. Yes, the dispatcher still needs to be fixed, because it handles the situation incorrectly; but the...
Very interesting, that this started as a private semi-amateur project that DTG decided to pick up; and that it uses "different techniques" to...
I would venture that Skyhook (not DTG) simply reskinned the CSX AC4400. Since the front door window is part of the 3d model, not the skin/livery,...
This is I suppose a meta-technical matter, but it is certainly a source of at least discontent among many users, especially the all-important Day...
Yes it is, at least with regard to implementing the reduced physics models of timetabled trains which are out of sight. It's true that they...
Supposedly this had been repaired, but it happened again: gliding majestically into Reading Platform 9 at a stately 15 mph, the Brake Demand light...
But with patience one can do a surprising amount with it, whether it was intended or not.
That's not actually true. "Sunlight" can definitely have different casts in different atmospheric conditions. Heck, my living room walls can be...
theorganist, thanks for the tip. A little googling and it turns out that Cross Country did (and does) run an HST pair every two hours between...
Question for anyone who knows: during the time period of this route, did any Class 43s run into Glasgow Central?
As for the "no HUD PZB" thing- that's because there's no PZB display in the RL cab either. Just a buzzer (PZB on these engines was a backfit,...
I would say that increased realism and immersion is the point. Does anyone actually care about scoring?
Separate names with a comma.
