So, has anyone bought this yet and what's the general concensus?
Nothing I guess, just a random thought...
That must cost an absolute fortune, particularly using the LED advertising boards.
Could be targeted for the Coronation of King Charles III which I believe has been piggybacked on the May Day Bank Holiday weekend. So... Tuesday...
If TSC had a timetable mode, I know where I’d be spending most of my time. When TSW is done well, like Niddertalbahn, then it can look very good....
I must put that JT route on my wishlist, as noted previously they have come a long way since Edinburgh to Dundee and using the Class 166!
The lighting, mainly. Day time actually looks like day without being over bright and saturated and the nights have a good amount of ambient light...
Yes I'm guessing they would have to be co-ordinated with the train being at a stand and correctly aligned, with the player/driver actually...
One thing I did wonder, should the platform edge doors not be closed until the train arrives and at a stand and animated to open/close as...
Just posted to this effect in one of the other threads (would be nice to have one definitive one). Overall now feeling reasonably happy with my...
Watched a bit of the stream while exercising (well from where trains actually started moving) and did breath a sigh of relief over my pre-order....
Hopefully DTG can address this. Most of the mobile/iPad train games are nothing like their preview imagery, rip off the code between each title,...
Re TSC, must admit I’m probably more looking forward to the new Japanese route which releases later today, than MML.
At least TSC is getting some US narrow gauge. NG of any description, well apart from one slightly flawed Swiss metre gauge route, seems anathema...
Yes, yes we had all that debate when they did put the price up, along with the fact that some entertainment items like CD’s (I’m an old dinosaur...
Must admit after reading the overnight comments have a slight regret about pre ordering. It seems the route comes in around B- to use old school...
Haven't watched the stream (hopefully a YT digest will follow) but with the general favourable reception being aired above think I will chance a...
Bit late to the party on this one and tl:dr at the risk of repeating: 1. Why is the freight timetable so shabby? 2. Why are the yards and depot at...
Would not be averse to later on seeing an (official) reskin into Regional Railways livery and it dropping into NTP.
Oh I know, the point is you cannot upload these with the route if you want to put it on the Workshop. It will only accept core or Steam sold DLC...
Yes please, though more likely to be Just Trains as they built the TSC version. Just hope if it is and whoever does it, they leave out those...
A railtour on BML hauling NTP Mark 2's would have been nice. In the early to mid eighties these locos worked far and wide on 3 day cyclic...
I wonder if this one allows you to run with the cab doors open? On GWE you couldn't which made the cab a bit too quiet. If you watch any of the...
Yes as much as I’m on the fence about this route, I didn’t quite understand the poster’s reasoning there. 158 is new and we think the HST has a...
All that happens in MSTS and TSC, also SimRail from my limited experience, is after a couple of miles beyond the missed call it disappears and...
Oh that’s pretty good then. Count me in!
At the moment it’s a tossup between this and the MML for TSW but I think this is winning, as an old Densha de Go fan! Has anyone gleaned how many...
Pretty much how I am feeling. We are being asked to part with £30 for a route that looks like it came out the MSTS editor and tile object limit, a...
You would probably still have to base it on a real world location, though.
Indeed. However as Class156 above stated, there is just a nagging doubt about the whole thing that is preventing me from taking the plunge. Maybe...
Depends whether Skyhook see ongoing potential or it becomes yet another fire and forget bland pudding of a route. The fact large tracts of...
I am actually starting to see this as an expensive stock pack (the 158 and slightly rehashed HST) with the route very much an afterthought. Those...
Ultimately there are only so many route builders out there, whether for freeware or payware. Many of us have been doing this for over 20 years...
Pre-order really hinges on the 158 sounds delivering so will be looking for feedback from the stream tomorrow evening. It is still a comparatively...
Further to Workshop being discussed above. With the decline of many third party hosting sites - UKTS going soon, Trainsim now an ad infested mess...
Thanks for the heads up re Balkan DLC. Will be interesting to see how it compares to ProMods, which no doubt will require another update to keep...
Nearly 2 year necro… think if an Australian route on the cards it would have come by now. Not only do DTG seem seem reluctant to step outside...
Indeed, most UK routes apart from maybe BML and WSR could benefit from an extension. However apart from the practical issues and without access to...
A decent length would have been Leicester to Sheffield or come south towards Bedford. However as you say it’s a trend and not just in TSW. The...
Well it’s up to pre-order now but there’s just a little residual unease and niggle preventing me from hitting the button just yet. When are we...
I think Bossman Games might disagree! As I mentioned, been driving the Royal Scot in TSC and it is like chalk and cheese compared to the abysmal...
Moving things forward a bit, shouldn't this be up for pre-order on Steam shortly? Looks like an expensive month as the new Japanese route for TSC...
Just testing as a post I just submitted to another thread (Future Of TSC) came up awaiting mod approval for some reason. Not been a bad lad, AFAIR..!
Appreciate the clarification Matt. My main experience with beta testing was on Trainz many iterations ago and TBH it was a glorified play test....
If that was aimed at me, I was not intentionally cynical. Simply putting the counterpoint that getting to be a beta tester - as we frequently see...
And apart from around Grantham and Stoke Summit, it’s pretty much flat as a pancake boring. It would also require their route builder(s) to...
Definitely agree. There is just so much TSW can’t do compared to TSC, you really wonder why DTG bother. Coming after a lovely run with the Bossman...
This route caught my eye last night when loading up TSC for a play. On paper it should be a Day One purchase, certainly compared to the bland...
Ah, might have to make it a Day One purchase then.
Exactly why even if I was asked, which I haven’t been (!), I would be reluctant to be a beta tester as I value the right to free speech. The other...
