Welcome to Virginia in spring! DTG have very carefully modeled the fact that you can wash your windshield, and five minutes later it's caked with...
In that regard, all I can envision happening is DTG releasing an Amtrak diesel route, and then layering the loco and coaches into the SPG...
1st April, Nat?
The very name, Livery Designer, suggests that what DTG had in mind was players inventing their own fictional liveries; some players have invented...
" First of all, without sharing options, they're completely useless to 95% of the playerbase" Not entirely true, at least for PC users. Sharing...
Already being done. But it's a long process.
Yes, they do; but SKA doesn't model any of that. They would have to do a route or route extension to include them.
Man, damned if they do, damned if they don't! Given all the threads about "why should we have to suffer with nerfed graphics because of old...
Depends which end of spring- early March or late May? (I have noticed that TSW's day and year cycle seem to be British- behave according to their...
No. I live in Virginia, and it's pretty darn close. Heck, they even added dogwood trees. Dogwoods! Only problem with the forests is there isn't...
Just finished the first scenario, Limited Power: WOW! DTG seem to have raised their game in the game design department, as well. I love that...
Those would be some hellacious extensions: [IMG]
Popping the PCS happens- it's annoying, but recoverable. Often you haven't even done anything wrong, just coupled to a long string of cars (since...
Good point. It still has the old tunnel and Heigenbrucken station, which were bypassed by the new tunnel in 2017.
It's a bug, Matt pointed out in today's stream that it's a bug, and it should be fixed in the first patch. (It only affects the tutorial; it...
Passenger works fine, and may be preferable with a short consist, or even a medium consist of empties. The freight setting makes the brakes apply...
A good idea; but I'm not sure DTG's license agreement with DB would allow them to put HVLE trains in the game. Same problem with the Abellios on...
I'm not sure why the F7A and F7B are separate locomotives here, but it's a mistake. They are almost always done in sets; as it is it would be a...
Exactly. It's a little silly to have CSX engines with (permanent) cab numbers that don't match the (randomized) number plates.
Wouldn't be very interesting, since on the modeled route the player could only drive them from Hackerbrucke as far as Laim or Pasing before they...
breblimator: " Hah! I would have to modify the one already placed... :) Masterpiece. Eat the coal, feel the grade." Oh, no. That one is a quip....
What gets me is that the negative reviews are about the same trivial picky LOVE we get so much of on here: "horn lacks reverberation" and so on....
You certainly can't compare the puny little hydraulic brakes on a car! When we are talking about trains, no, 50 tons might as well be a Thomas...
Because a mere 50 tons of carriages might as well be a chain of paper dolls. It's nothing.
Meh. The ES44s and pre-2015 SD70ACes are better locomotives. Tier 4 standards have nerfed the engines as badly as early-70s emission controls...
DTG could fairly easily do the ubiquitous BR 644, the diesel Talent, which does Regio duties all over Germany's non-electrified lines.
Windows 10 comes with all three.
So no "Handle Off" position or the equivalent?
Like that hasn't been done, over and over.
Expect a deluge of Clinchfield bridge pics soon......
On the other thread they found the problem: in the tutorial (not service mode), the rear cab's brakes are cut in. You need to cut them out.
A longtime problem across TSW has been that there is, on most locos, an inadequate detent between the "service/apply" brake position and...
First impressions, after an hour Haven't even driven, yet, just climbed on the caboose and played tourist. 1) Best looking route DTG have...
Aaaaand we're off! Loaded up and ready to go.
But now it's done. Just a little late; Steam is now telling me 2.7 GB downloaded completed at 1:11 PM.
Already done. Twice. No joy.
So does the F7. I'm not sure, but some people may be missing the fact that the DB controls are not the same as they are in the familiar Dash-2s....
After 10 AM PDT, and Clinchfield still hasn't unlocked.
Which you believe should be given to you in the form of Free Stuff. The Chatham Dockyard parking lot ain't full of Aston Martins.
Well, IF for some reason Sam or Matt or Paul or somebody reads this thread, I think Blackwolf is on the right track. DTG already have a...
And how much money it costs them. TFL doesn't give those licenses away out of a charitable impulse.
Even if DTG got the license to use TFL's trademarks, that doesn't necessarily mean they got a license to use their copyrights as well; and even if...
If I'm not mistaken, in game it is 12-15 lbs, not the 6 it ought to be. (Except on the C40-8W; on that one they seem to have got it right)
It does in RL too. Pneumatic systems are not fast.
If anyone buys Clinchfield expecting to run high-speed express trains-- well, that's on them.
You don't have to pick one, just read it off the gauge! To date, all US locos in TSW2 have dynamic brakes. The British ones don't but then their...
Separate names with a comma.
