Very conflicted this morning. Part of me wants to support the project but the ongoing silence from the devs regarding SP and the save game is...
No save in SP mode with some of the (very few) scenarios being nearly 4 hours long. Unacceptable. Hate to use the the "refund" word but I am...
I've got to dive in and take a proper look but it seems my suspicions about single player are confirmed. A handful of missions/scenarios, nothing...
Yes it's a big download, @44Gb. Guess I'll be playing later.
Currently waiting to see if anyone confirms whether or not there is a save game. If yes, then it's cheaper than a TSW 30 mile one train route so...
We could at least have a railtour or three to add variety. And the route is ripe for a GWE style Legends pack with the Class 37, Class 40, Class...
The one drawback, though I think the SVR is sufficiently iconic, more so than the WSR, to overcome that. And as there are no Dept Of Transport...
It doesn't look too bad compared to other Unity games. DRS started off looking very yellowish in the same engine but has improved a bit since....
I would imagine if anything came next it would be a Black Five or possibly a passenger tank loco.
Combined Ffestiniog and Welsh Highland would be great. Licencing probably the biggest issue and of course any heritage railway may have concerns...
Yes those two would be favourite if it was a heritage route. They really need to refine the traction categories in the product codes as diesel...
Class 180 on the Cotswold Line now that could be a possibility, Oxford to Worcester with the HST and 166 layered in as necessary.
Only because I would prefer it to yet another modern Network Rail route with modern traction, but yes at this point any dev thinking of making a...
Interesting. Perhaps we're going to get a diesel hydraulic lawnmower... :)
Which is why I'm thinking of (and hoping for) a heritage railway. Correct me if I'm wrong, but Skyhook are a US based developer and I'm not sure...
That doesn't rule out a heritage railway though.
As I just posted in the other thread, SVR with a Class 25 and a Class 42 would do very nicely thank you! Racking my brains which other UK...
Moderately interesting roadmap. I'm half hoping that Glasgow to Edinburgh gets a classic diesel timetable in addition to the rather uninteresting...
I saw diesel hydraulic and started drooling at the prospect of a Warship over the Devon Banks or down to Kingswear, but I guess the code is for...
The biggest problem with Derail Valley is once you've gone round the map a few times, it gets a bit stale.
I don't mind "Early Access" if that's reflected in the price but I must admit a lot of things seemed to emerge in the playtest that perhaps should...
The difference is that there are many options in TSW for shorter runs and DTG recognised themselves that they had created a huge issue when they...
And still no word on whether we can save the game in single player mode. Well I guess we will find out tomorrow evening! The key to it being a...
My thoughts exactly. Apart from the climb out of Queen Street - great fun with a 40 or 26 - it's almost entirely level, scenery wise a few small...
Just a heads up, play test is over at 1800 UTC/GMT today so there will be a 24 hour gap until the retail version, now being billed as early...
Visuals are fine, as stated the rain is impressive. Not done a twilight or night run yet to judge the time of day effects.
Wasn't the original plan Penzance to Truro plus St Ives, with the decision then taken to extend to St Austell after feedback that the proposed...
Of course as I found out yesterday evening The Bus has more than its own share of bugs despite the fact it's been in early access for a year and a...
It happens with numerous services, particularly freight setting off from Basford Hall via the Independent Lines.
There is supposedly a Scenario Editor 2.0 in the works, but it's gone very quiet now so don't hold your breath. And I think we can pretty much...
No, I refund if something doesn't live up to my expectations or the hype. Fortunately, "The Bus" seems to have come a long way since my first...
Must admit it's not too bad. Had to bring some of my settings back from Epic to get a reasonable frame rate but better than I remember. Haven't...
Most locos in TSW have poor headlights though it should be noted in some cases this is realistic - the lights are for the approaching train to be...
Those of us who have an eye for accuracy and correct use of the English language. Anyhow I think we have digressed enough. Please continue the...
Worth getting the MP15 switcher DLC as that adds some non passenger runs, too - and it's a nice loco.
Well I just folded and bought this again (sorry SimRail, just used your funds!) after having tried the very early access version a long while ago...
The spurious SPAD issue has not been fixed, Matt has stated it's being lined up for the next patch.
TVL has some good freight runs, more so if you buy the Class 20 and Class 31 DLC. You might also consider some of the US routes such as Sandpatch...
If we had access to an editor, routes like the Somerset & Dorset, Cambrian Coast, North Wales Coast, Central Wales, Stratford On Avon and Midland...
:D:D:D:D:D:o
Why not? It is a factual and fundamental error. I will add DTG to that then, it makes you wonder what else either party doesn't understand....
Fair do's... but, "Loco Level"? Once again shows how little Rivet know or understand about railways. Class 385 is a multiple untit, not a locomotive!
Another candidate would be the Class 40, reskinned and backdated. Plus the original LMS diesels 10000 and 10001.
Do we? Citation needed please.
I suspect TSW4 will be a 2024 or even 2025 iteration of the game. We weren't really expecting TSW3, it was supposed to be a "pause" while they...
A bus or truck game also has to factor in other vehicle and pedestrian behaviour, something a train sim generally doesn't have to do. However the...
Can confirm rolling back nailed it, got up the initial 1.5% gradient at a comfortable 10 MPH and now cruising the rest of the run.
Now that clip from "The Bus" is quite impressive, just might have to buy into it again. Though TML do have a less than sterling rep with some of...
DM sent.
Good stuff. I'll stick with the passenger runs for now, then or at least avoid anything that kicks off from Basford Hall via the Indie Lines.
