My understanding of Journey Mode is that it's kind of an "Editor's Pick" of the best scenarios and a cross section of typical timetable runs. Some...
Yes I shall amuse myself with the < 50 min runs so far as possible and hopefully it won't be too long. On the bright side if we do finally get a...
Mixing meth as per Breaking Bad?!
I’m sure I have mentioned it before in connection with HRR which is a dark route anyway but at 0800 on a winter run the stations are in pitch...
Strictly speaking we won’t find out until Tuesday as SEHS has been doctored for TSW3 and only buying the standard edition not deluxe I can’t...
Just curious if anyone has tested the UUU method of saving and loading, is it working okay?
Basically, yes! The dark side of The Force seduced me…
Glasgow to Fort William is around 100 miles, another 40 odd if you continue on to Mallaig. Sorry to be an old fuddy duddy, but this is one route...
I did! It’s certainly not as bad as I was expecting but there are numerous issues and tweaks DTG need to undertake, the single most important one...
100% agree and the one that absolutely needs it is HRR where even at midday unless it is sunny in high summer, looks like the middle of the night....
I presume this is for the game, not global? Any chance of sharing the settings, might be worth a try see if it can tame the brightness level. I...
Game definitely needs sliders for gamma, brightness and contrast..
Of course the main event will come on Tuesday when we can start to see how our old favourites from TSW1 and 2 look and run in the refreshed game...
I second that. Journey mode is (was) my primary means of experiencing routes and motive power in TSW2 so I need to know whether it’s worth...
It’s maybe more of a core issue going back to the original TSW, but approaching Ashford on a Down run you get turned into one of the back...
Correct. First thing I switched off. Well that and the silly coloured track shades approaching your stop position.
Cajon is very nice. Had to do a 40 or so minute run from Victorville to Barstow due to the save situation, but chose dusk and yes it is sublime....
About to give Cajon a go and compare with SEHS which I agree does look a little washed out and over bright. Edit: Well lovely as others have...
Just done a quick run on SEHS from St Pancras to Ashford. Generally looking good though I may have to tweak performance a bit for my old potato....
I'm just about to get the game up and running having finally finished the bit of decorating (note to self, don't buy B&Q own brand paint as it's...
When the save game is fixed.
It is video based which is a bit old style and no substitute for an integrated graphics engine.
Still got to finish downloading and give it a try, as the wife has had me decorating most of the day! I always thought TSW2 looked too dark so I...
Just wondering if these values can permanently be added to the ini file to avoid using the unlocker each time?
I have a feeling Journey Mode has to be started over.
I believe it was Ctrl 6 or Ctrl F6 in TSW2, might be worth trying that.
Possibly DTG could have made this more prominent under the EA section of the order page. Then again, they could have posted in big bold neon...
Various threads about this but remains an ongoing concern of mine despite having folded and repurchased the game. Matt P has stated in another...
I believe, at least looking at my old Thomas Cook timetable, both Amtrak services traverse the route during the hours of darkness, so you’re not...
This was an issue on the earlier Sherman Hill, thought to be due to the route builder using high poly grass assets way out beyond the lineside....
Oops… Can’t blame the save game for that one! Sounds like the timetable got itself dogknotted, the peril of putting more trains in same as...
I think so too. It will be tomorrow now before I can play as the download has another 45 minutes yet. Everyone must think I am mad - whinge,...
Okay, the ayes win! Going to give it a try after all. But I am holding Matt to hi word on the saved game...
As mentioned in the earlier report of this, it prevents you skipping past any bugged scenarios or runs.
Must admit, tunnel lighting does look good... Maybe Tuesday when the £30 editions land.
I normally get 8Mb/s maximum when downloading from Steam, even though we’re on BT Broadband top package.
Technically do they use “yards” much in America? Certainly driving on the roads over there ISTR most distance warnings in feet. Same with “stones”...
Isn’t that a good thing!
Appreciate that Matt and I'm sure at some point this will all come good.
To be fair it used to be very unreliable, sometimes it would fail to load the next objective data per the LH top corner of screen. But that hasn't...
Or the old save system was worse in TSW3. But I know we have been stress testing it over the last couple of weeks in TSW2 and for me apart from...
Good as far as it goes Matt, but still not enough to convince me to part with £40. I really don't think it would hurt to reinstate the old system...
It is also a bit disingenuous that the description of the game on Steam (and presumably the other platforms) omits to mention that there is no...
Yes, DTG kindly removed it as their response to complaints about it being occasionally unreliable in TSW2. There has been considerable discussion...
Outsider looking in. That's not good as many Journey Mode flows have bugged runs or scenarios, never fixed by DTG, but in TSW2 you can just skip...
Sounds like the length of Cajon may have come at the expense of quality then. So the single route option either leaves us with that, or Kassel to...
The diesel tours were actually quite good fun and at least the physics were fairly accurate, unlike the SoS steam locos.
And absolutely vital for night driving if you want to enable PZB as you need to be able to see the reflective advance speed restriction boards and...
I know, it is a dilemma. Despite my cancellation I am going to watch how things evolve over the first week or two, maybe go back in with the...
Must be a homage to the Chatham chavs…
