Actually, if RT had a freight pack I might buy it. Commuter rail doesn't interest me very much, but freight does. Besides, there currently is no...
Do they make it to the west coast? I assumed not, since I don't live out there. All the more reason for flexibility! Old logos: I don't now...
Strange, since in TSW every loco on MSB (and other German) freight services always is set to M by default; you have to set U manually. And...
OTOH, it's not uncommon in the US for freight cars (especially container flatcars and boxcars) to get shifted around the country, so you often get...
Right near me, the southern portion of the US East Coast main line, the gates come down quite early because the trigger magnets are located a...
In other words, if after slowing down for a speed signal (as opposed to a permanent trackside sign), I then pass a Clear main signal (German:...
So, running with a consist of empty coal hoppers, you would be in Mode M but capped to a vMax of 100 km/h?
All right, I am trying to get my head around all of this. I do have a couple of notes: 1) the apparent setting of the car brake handle isn't...
Yes, I get that: the question is whether PzB mode U applies even if the Brh is over 66?
Query: if some or all of the wagons have a vMax of 100, does that automatically make the train a Class U?
Or the quick and dirty approach I use: treat a green Hs without speed restiction as a "resume speed" Later than doing it properly by train length,...
Come to think of it, all trains operated by DB Regio Bayern carry blue and white "Bahnland Bayern" decals. Another route - specific livery.
Oh, another one (are you reading this, DTG Protagonist?) A very important feature, actually: add a checkbox interface that allows the user, for a...
You should be able to re-download it from the Playstation store.
Since TSW2 launched, there has been no new North American content- there's Sand Patch, plus Preserved ports from TSW1 - and Sand Patch was a...
I'm rather nonplussed that people expect the sort of polish Rockstar produces with literally thousands of people and a budget on the scale of a...
All right, I realize I'm dense: but exactly which numbers on the side of the car/loco do you use?
Actually it could well a problem. TS20xx's graphics take a fraction of the processing horsepower the same assets do in TSW.
At best the 460 was a semi-ancestor of the 101, built by ABB Zurich which would later merge its rail division with Daimler-Benz's to form Adtranz,...
Fair point. ...although it could be done using all leaser rolling stock in Wells Fargo or GATX paint ( a subtle finger to BNSF)
While not "trains," each of the SPG locos came out with both the all-blue Yn3b and older blue/grey Yn2 liveries.
As a minor point, there are no TSW2-native German routes with freight. Which means Livery Editor can't be used to add variety to those rather...
All right: I just had a thought which might spur DTG into taking livery-sharing seriously: money. If, with such a system set yp, DTG could start...
I don't think it's a good comparison. Buying the Pacer or Sprinter would not have been by any means fiscally un-doable for CalTrain; probably not...
No passenger service. Freight makes that run (and most people who bought RSN did it because they like freight)
One broken service out of 300.
Update: I've turned motion blur back on. It helps disguise the "creeping sleepers" and similar behavior by fences and the like, and I don't spend...
You're running a freight (Class M or U). 40 is the restricted speed for passenger (Class O) trains. Try it again staying under 30.
Definitely happens without reloading a save.
As if BR had that kind of money in 1974. It didn't. Viable? Not with US geography. At the typical distances between major cities, air is more...
As well as DTG's stated commitment to improve optimization.
That's arrogance? I would apply that word to rather different behavior. Like slamming users who actually buy the products (that keep DTG in...
The 43 was excellent for the role it was cast in: high-speed, limited-stop express service. Indeed, the Intercity 125 is a modern classic, and was...
BNSF can't trademark the land their tracks run through! The only license needed is Amtrak's
Its not just the cab car but the 101 itself: it isnt a 'multi' like the ICE3M, it does't have Swiss pantographs
If it makes you feel any better, the German switchyards are mostly empty too.
Yep. Probably excessively so. I found the hard way that you have to keep it down to 1.5 mph to guarantee 100% loading.
Rather like an old big-block Galaxie station wagon, the top speed is fine but it takes a week to get up to it. That's OK for Amtrak, running a...
IMO, the lighting of NTP is absolutely perfect for the setting. British Rail in the Seventies in Lancashire and Yorkshire? Of course everything...
I would disagree. It's an SD40 road switcher with a cab body and HEP tacked on. But it still accelerates as sluggishly and brakes as wonkishly...
Y-series shunting jobs don't take so long.
You need to cycle the throttle on and then off again before you regain control. Basic safety interlock in all German trains
Drama queen much? Ruhr-Sieg Nord has almost 300 services to run with just the base engines alone before DLC, , and you are saying you wasted your...
Quite so. For me, at any rate, it's simply an aesthetic thing and part of the 'immersion;' in most TSW tutorials, the narrative voice has been...
I hadn't noticed that. I just played Cumberland Charge yesterday, used dynamic braking to hold speed all the way down the grade, and my EOT...
Neither do I. Conceivably it might have been layered in by RSN though. Keep in mind however that not all AI trains are in the player timetable.
.... 50 years ago when the Intercity was first launched, it was all first class.
Although DTG can't be blamed for the rotation of the Earth (much as I expect some will try to), a problem with livestreaming from Britain, for...
Well done! The moment I saw it, I figured it was a winner. Striking, striking image. (Also, as a splash screen, a nice shout-out to DTG's...
