There is also the 1938 stock in TSC as a reference.
As I said above it is probably quite a hard thing to get right for each and every item of traction and rolling stock. Even the much lauded Run 8...
Looks like the bridge needs to be brick/girder though rather than brick arch?
Fair enough then Matt, fingers crossed. We all want to love SoS and hopefully this along with the steam fixes will make it so... And add incentive...
In the context of the OP, this I fear. We all have our different tolerance levels when it comes to quality and there is much in TSW which is...
A casualty of the Beeching cuts in the 1960's. Part of the line has been preserved, part is freight only and the rest a walking trail.
I hear what you say Matt but given both myself and the Rev have observed this, really think it at least deserves someone to take a look in the...
I know possible Editor updates are going to form part of a future topic, but one I would like to highlight again and surely shouldn't be that hard...
Sorry to ping DTG Matt but this would seem to bear looking at.
Is it AI though as always seems to occur at the same place under the Independent Line tunnels, regardless of time in the scenario? Seems to me...
Thank you for such an in depth, analytical and erudite post.
Further to the OP what's also intriguing as that we have virtually no indication of what's planned post PF, which is the last of the five...
Being realistic, I know at this stage we're not going to get a green Class 45, a Class 104 or Derby. But if someone from DTG can come on here and...
You are quite right and there is really no excuse for DTG not getting this right. Of course I still remember the original default MSTS track...
Great call with one minor correction- the Class 108 is a Derby built DMU not Cravens which were Class 105. Not sure if 105's worked to Barrow or...
I guess part of the problem is that the sound generated depends on the vehicle type. A loco or heavy multiple unit car will return more of a thud,...
No, as has been stated and DTG must be aware if they did their research - by this time the Millers Dale shuttle was worked by DMU, usually a Class...
Still no buffet cars… :cool::cool::cool:
Pretty much echoes how I feel. Was so hyped for this, now really struggling to justify a pre order or Day One purchase. DTG cannot be oblivious to...
Don't be a nitwit... British Rail Class 104 - Wikipedia Class 104 DMU (railcar.co.uk) Blooming lovely machines they were, too.
This has gone from being my Number One most awaited route of the five originally announced to, they are really going to have to sell it. As an...
Class 104 DMU on Buxton shuttle, they worked those services from 1957 so you couldn't even argue it's transition.
Why do they insist on playing music over the video clip or is that to hide the sound? Screenshots show the 4F on passenger stock so presumably...
I should also add, still no proof steam physics, sound and manual firing have been sorted.
I too am sceptical. They have not listened to what we as a customer base asked for, whether it be the route running through to Derby, a layer for...
You could try cutting the track at the point where the revised gradient starts, then reweld once complete.
I voted yes but have to honestly assess how useful it would be to the hobby level route builder who does not have access to or means to buy the...
Agree and can't really recall how and why "career" scenarios came to be a thing anyway. It's not like a proper career mode where you start at the...
Well hopefully at some point if SHG are genuinely concerned about fixing up this route, they will come back with an open and honest action plan...
Again, speculating on confidential decisions and discussions between management and individual employees is going to end up with this thread...
Either Bedford or Sheffield either of which would add a bit of scenic interest but TBH if the forward route building is as what we’ve seen so far,...
I would be more inclined to buy if on disc for PS5 rather than download only.
The point is, that is how the real train works so I actually say kudos to DTG for doing it properly. Anyhow this is all getting a bit off the...
I believe the power control system on the 313 accurately reflects the real train in that to reduce power you need to take the throttle off then...
Yes I could never understand how people were so enthusiastic about it. To me in Notch 4 sounds more like a Class 230 DMU.
Wash my mouth out but the TSW UI is somewhat better. I will add this once the UI thread goes live but as I popped it on Suggestions the other day...
Indeed. Mentioned the Victory A1X earlier and already thinking of scenarios for WSR and a guest appearance on the Riviera line!
Appreciate that Steve. There are a few QOL changes that can hopefully be made when the time is right. I do quite a bit in Trainz Surveyor too and...
Great stuff Steve, only other thing I would add is what's the chance of the route editor getting some love and updates at some point. Have posted...
And Victory… just bought his A1X along with some Matrix Birdcage coaches and all superb.
I voted yes but I would actually like to see either something radical like Victorian or Edwardian era or the steam/diesel transition which has...
It was certainly initimated by the guy from SHG on the stream last week.
Well I guess if blowback was modelled going through tunnels with the firebox door open... MML was allegedly built by people who live close to the...
Yes please!
Which of course brings us back to the fact TSW should have been conceived as a modular system. I have happy memories of the fictional West...
There's always going to be trade offs but if you're doing this for a paycheck then there needs to be an element of both. Not much foliage or...
TBH having watched the "Megasim" YT clip with the HST, I would say the biggest single lack of enthusiasm I have for this route is the short...
My only caveat having had a quick run down from Victoria to Gatwick, is that the route on PS5 suffers from the same horrid regular stutters and...
Would certainly be something different and fun!
Arguably the Snow Hill network would have been an all round better choice than Cross City anyway.
