We must understand that train-simming is a niche hobby and a niche market. There are only so many of us, and therefore only so much money to...
I am a bit puzzled at the underlying market analysis. DTG obviously perceive a considerable market for vintage UK rail enthusiasts. Whereas...
Another Clinchfield beauty queen [IMG]
I'm guessing that they did something in the core in preparation for Clinchfield's ancient EMD diesels. But it stinks, because for the time being...
Seriously? You want a multiplayer setup which permits one incompetent or a-hole to completely ruin EVERYBODY'S session? Oh, and you want...
Well, not really. They don't include any of the S-Bahn services except the S3 and S4 (admittedly, they all only go as far as Pasing before...
Unless DTG are conceding that they would have been caked with coal dust and opaque anyway! Don't be misled by No. 800 in its pristine, restored...
When I lived in Germany 1968-73, the 140 was the mainstay of medium freight traffic and you saw them everywhere. The 141 was a passenger engine....
You're right. Just tried it, DBs do NOT work! And not just the 38, but ALL EMD diesels- Peninsula Corridor as well as Sand Patch.
Did some testing: this bug, which just appeared, apparently affects EMD diesels, specifically. The SD40, the GP38 (both CSX and UP versions), and...
Holy smoke, you are right! Just tried a double-SD40 service, and the DB did nothing! So much for "complete patch notes." The 3/2 patch notes...
Since the 3/2 update, the pause screen no longer diplays train length, weight etc- all useful information. Apparently related to the livery-switch...
It's not a question of business practices, but the way TSW is built: every loco has to have a "home," they can't exist independent of a route. In...
I don't believe the VT 11.5 was still running as late as 1975; or if it was, it was only on non-electrified routes. (Looked it up: the last 11.5...
I haven't run down the grade in a couple of days, but to my knowledge no update to Sand Patch has been made since Jan 11. Certainly my game files...
Well, since I am a heavy freight freak I had to vote for Sand Patch, but for best all-around I would go with MSB. No, it doesn't have high-speed,...
To my knowledge the only loco to date that has functional panto-switching is the 185.5 (not counting the Javelin transitioning from overhead to...
In which case it would cost as much as a route DLC, because that's what it would be: a whole new route.
I think that there is a serious misapprehension reflected in many, many comments above, to the effect of "Buy sounds from AP, plug into train...
None that wasn't already. The route is vanilla GWE, no changes.

.... artists could have been put to work designing proper fences for SEHS. :cool:
I would interpret this differently: The additional services for TVL/HFP locos are there to entice the other group of customers, the ones who...
What you are talking about would mean in effect building a whole new route. Routes can't be simply reskinned like rolling stock.
That model doesn't appear to have functioning cab doors either. I suppose we won't be able to access the cab? The proof of the pudding is in the...
Why not?
Which would have meant building a whole new route. It's not like giving a loco a paint job, you know. It pretty much has to be redone from...
Yes, the scenario Freight Diversion
Unfortunately it's kind of hidden down at the bottom- all of C&O's and B&O's GP38s actually had cyclops headlights and plain noses, so the heralds...
And, a pair of bookends for the CSX fallen-flag pack. No, B&O Royal Blue and C&O Enchantment Blue are not the same color. Except when they are....
Didn't we just have United Kingdom about three weeks ago?
They're just about ready.... [IMG]
Note also the warning plaque on the control stand: CAUTION - DO NOT MOVE DYNAMIC BRAKE TO SET/UP UNTIL THROTTLE HAS BEEN IN IDLE FOR 10 SECONDS...
No. It isn't actually the static asset draw distance- that can be extended by command and isn't bad by default- what you are seeing is the...
Same way I do it. Which is a killer under the 300-layer limit. I may have to ditch a couple of planned projects for that reason, or just use...
Fantastic work! Especially the small details, which take a LOT of effort. Query: how did you do the Roman lettering in "Southern"? I haven't...
Must be a Dutch keyboard thing. Doesn't work on mine (I get "o or "O)
You're really getting the hang of transparencies!
Another pair of CSX fallen flags coming this weekend. Sneak preview: [IMG]
OK, I stand corrected. I thought they were all like 900-911, but I see that 912-915 were two years newer. Well, it gets kind of complicated....
A concession to gameplay, or a recycled model. None of CRR's GP7s had dynamic brakes, at least not until they were rebuilt as GP11s in 1979-81 (at...
Dammit, there's five bucks down the drain.
It simply isn't the same lighting as the in-game lighting, which throws colors way, way off- far too often I think I've nailed a shade in LD, only...
Is the GP40 not part of the Preserved Collection? Just bought it (on sale), in its TSW2020 incarnation- but no such DLC appears in my Steam...
Problem solved: sale going on right now at gamebillet, so I got both for the regular price of HFP!
However, Koln-Wuppertal and Koln-Duisburg are right in the range of normal TSW route lengths. Koln-Bonn-Koblenz would be a bit of a stretch, but...
F7 A and B units- even more painting fun. One can do almost every classic American RR livery.
Except that, at least in the form of the bug I experience, the problem is not a brake application- it's pure loss of throttle. When it happens...
I dunno, I wound up buying Xbox One updates of certain 360 games, like GTA V.
