Is there actually anything you like in TSC or TSW? Just asking as your constant negativity makes me wonder why you are even here or playing these...

The 189 is a lovely loco in TSC, especially the sounds - a refreshing change from screeching TRAX!

That is useful information. I'll grab QGIS tomorrow - looks like it is freeware so that's good news.

Brilliant, thanks Maik, Think I will forget trying to practice in the standard UE editor and just wait for our custom version.

I’ve been enjoying the odd dabble in SimRail this week but still find myself back in TSW. I have a feeling their steam loco is not yet ready for...

Was mainly wondering if we have got an answer on the split timetable, use of BNSF power and LA night lighting.

And if DTG wish to proceed in that direction, entirely their prerogative. And as with this year, 95% of the customer base will look at what’s on...

Not watching live (playing Cajon then watching a movie) but what have we learned so far and initial impressions?

I still think it’s a good deal especially compared to N3V who wanted £55 for TRS22 then 18 months later another £55 to put “Platinum Edition “ on...

Was racking my brains on that too, but yes reckon by that time the old Merseyrail units had gone and the PEP’s were running the service. So the...

And a route editor. And a timetable editor. And a Vectron. And Flying Scotsman. Really don’t know what people are hoping to achieve, still...

Fairly certain they will be.

Maybe but it just seems totally daft to decide on a UP route and not include at least one loco to represent the freight traffic. Thety did it on...

Or they could have just bundled the UP stuff in with the route, especially as it's not exactly new any more.

Well they could have just included UP locos with the new route, given it's part of the flagship launch!

Just to reiterate the point made earlier, why are we seeing BNSF trains at all on this former Southern Pacific (now UP) route. BNSF traffic for...

If the line is operated by UP (it certainly used to be SP) why are the freight services layered in as BNSF anyway? I believe this point has been...

Well at least we should be able to set it up so the player can drive the timetable which still eludes me in Trainz. You can set up all sorts of...

Watching a bit further this morning, I actually think the timetable editor could be more challenging than building the routes. I was expecting...

Some routes have been merged in TSC to make longer ones and, most critically, they do not come with a comprehensive all day timetable - 8 to 10...

Leyland National buses were dreadful, well the National 2's weren't so bad as they had nicer sounding engines than the rather high pitched strange...

Sadly BBO is one of the routes that still seems to have issues saving and loading a game. Luckily most of the runs are under an hour so my advice...

Excellent Matt. Worst case I'll just leave the laptop on while we pop out for a walk or something.

Did this come after loading a save game? Affects just about every other route too.

Another challenge yesterday evening. Peak Forest, semi fast service from Chinley to Matlock, Jubilee and Load 7. Used the usual parameters of no...

Couple of housekeeping questions DTG Matt, if you get a second. 1. Does the editor go live on 21st or 26th September, the former for those of us...

RIP and condolences Anthony. Both my parents passed many years ago (mum in 98, dad in 2007) but it is a very difficult thing to deal with. Be...

And as I already noted above, SKW is a route that spends at least 50% of its distance in long tunnels and aside from the three stations on the...

Out of interest Maik, does the TSW version support this? Generally I dislike driving with the speed setter and prefer to use my skill (!) on the...

Yep all the NASA stuff is now 30m. North of about 60 deg latitude, where only the fearless (!) route builders tend to venture, I have still had to...

Plus very simple track layout and 50% of the mileage in long tunnels. Reading to Taunton would be nice especially if it included the Mendip...

Let’s just hope there are plans to bring one of those magnificent beasts into TSW!

You’re still missing the point old chap. You can do that now by saving the run as you go. So long as it is the same run. You could do that two...

I see what you mean. However it is more immersive to respawn in the cab where you left off as this inherits any late running you might have...

Yet again everyone seems to be missing the point. If the run is set up as a 2 hour one journey you can do it in 20 minute sections and come back...

But as per the point I just made, if you subsequently save that run and reload it, there is a strong possibility it will fail to load correctly...

Back from a very hot walk... Just to clarify something that might already have been answered. Will the route editor be available from 21st Sept...

In that case I have to ask, why? Given the save game aside from known caveats is more reliable. In fact one of those caveats is, if you finish the...

Alex this has been asked but not answered... What improvements does TSW4 bring to the save game? Specifically more than one slot (as the number of...

Will the passenger runs be split in two (unrealistic) or operate as one run throughout? What level of freight can we expect on the route? Can...

Thanks Matt! As I say so long as this runs without turning the laptop into a banshee, I can see TSC and TRS19/22 getting the heave ho. To that...

Watched to about an hour in now and mostly looking good. Couple of points arising (sorry!). Is there a way to have junction switches/levers place...

What a great proposal!

Good one. Set it back a few years and you could have the SHG 158 re textured into ATW livery. A Class 153 would not go amiss either. As regards...

Having watched the first half hour of the route editor presentation, I think the last thing you want to be doing is trying to create with a...

My other query which is maybe covered in part of the clip I haven’t watched yet, well two queries actually… 1. Is it possible to lay parallel...

Watched the first half hour or so and got to admit, I am very impressed. When I saw the difference between LiDAR and SRTM data, I swear there was...

I will try and catch this tomorrow (YT link appreciated) and post some thoughts afterwards.

Will have to catch this tomorrow now. Any chance of a link to the YT version, please?

Amen to that. Given the standard it looks like they have achieved with BOP, I would much rather see an all new route as their next project.
