This would be good and ideal stamping ground for a classic diesel layer too - take a Peak up the Lickey on 12 Mark Ones and hear that Sulzer scream!
Yes to the route but retro era preferred. Also Garmisch to Kempten via Reute in Tyrol a nice little backwater extension to consider.
I gave in and bought the route plus Acela in the dog end of the sale yesterday evening. Okay only £20 but it’s all a bit meargh… Performance is...
First run with the Acela last night, departed Newark towards Trenton accelerating into the 110 MPH zone, got a 45 MPH alert on the ACSES, no time...
Yes Asda haven’t stocked since before Christmas and Sainsbury’s had run out last week when I looked. Think Wilco’s might still have them but that...
Also some of the first Journeys are from the 928 trailer car so you don’t get to hear much of the engine sound. I wonder if these sets ever ran in...
Agree, it's moved up from not on your nelly Day One to quite possible Day One.
Well as I said earlier, seems some sections of NIR are quite scenic which I guess is where the interest comes. However as with discussions about...
I would actually like to see a late 50's era Great Central, maybe Leicester to Woodford to include the famous Catesby Tunnel and of course the 9F...
Grabbed the one that gave me Trenton and the Acela. I know the route isn't that great but it's still a pretty good bargain and ploughs back in 2/3...
And the 3D modelling team told to retrofit and paint a Class 45 to layer in as well.
Would also be very interested in a progress update on Peak Forest as it's gone very quiet. Does this mean DTG have taken on board the feedback...
Wonder if the route has been recalled to work on the 158 a bit more, given the very public concerns about sound and physics. I say, delay until...
Thanks, I'll update the command on Steam later.
I’m playing spot the difference here and not winning?
OT but you’re not alone. We are still considerably in credit with OVO but they already put up our direct debit and are threatening to do so again,...
I thought that too, especially the sounds. In fact that combined with the lighting and LC issues actually led me to r....d it, will maybe rebuy in...
Personally I would say Niddertalbahn. West Rhine still has a few issues, not least horrible lighting.
Very subjective as often boils down to personal taste. NTP is one of my favourites but I’m biased as BR classic diesels are my favourite era....
This is one route where I might actually take a walk lineside or even into the little towns or villages. (Once I finish slaying ghouls and super...
It will be the 158 for me… They were introduced during my tenure on the “Provincial” Desk in the then BR Control at Swindon and were part and...
Ah okay, thanks. Though I could just swear it seems to have made the sometimes imterminable waits either exiting a building into the Wasteland or...
My GPU is a GTX1650 so not sure how that scores. According to what I can see it is DX12 compatible so will give it a shot. I'm assuming some of...
Route really needs to go (no pun intended) from Toronto Union to Niagara.
They are going to have to synthesise the sounds based on what reference material is out there, but still better than the eerie silence that...
SF to SJ also still needs some reliability fixes, with occasional crashes occurring. However as others have stated above, I would rather any...
The other slight issue with Arosa is the jerky start and acceleration of the loco. If this could be looked at in Simugraph to smooth the...
Piccadilly or Northern would IMHO be a better choice for another tube route, with multiple branches and some surface running too. In terms of...
If you can fix it, your company will profit - it’s a beautifully modelled train but the lack of track sound or the classic sound of the electric...
Oh yes, I wouldn't want to revert to TSW2 and the deep black sticky tar effect everywhere, either.
Amen to that!
As I said, let’s please not wander off topic about the merits of beta testing - it was a minor aside in my main point that DTG seem to be ignoring...
Makes it harder to trace the issue, unfortunately.
Quick run on West Rhine last night and yes, the shiny reflective track/ballast textures in full swing. Ruins the experience of what is otherwise a...
Eichen approaching the station in the Stockheim direction. The barriers were down and I had the correct flashing light on approach so would assume...
Assuming the thread actually survives the next couple of hours, I do agree there is so much potential for a good 158. As I said either earlier in...
Okay, don’t really think we need to get too distracted about the beta testing process, been there myself more than once and a developer was only...
Agreed. We are all passionate on these issues but being rude to the Executive Producer is not the way to get things done.
On the southern end, pre-electrification most of the suburban services were worked by Class 105 or Class 106 Cravens DMU's - not entirely suited...
Agree. Anything new Southern needs to go back to the 70's or 80's and give us VEP's, EPB's etc. But I would much rather the effort went into...
Good suggestion but I would take it back to the VEP/EPB era for something a bit different.
I think this is pretty much what many of us intend to do. Of course, the counterpoint is that someone needs to be an early adopter to get the...
Another factor in costs could be whether licence holders require a percentage or up front payment. A preserved railway might expect a percentage...
I doubt DTG will reveal their commercial secrets. However I think we can assume most routes have a target sales figure in mind even at the...
Well there has been considerable and what appears to be justified criticism of Skyhook's previous efforts on traction - the DB187 and the locos on...
We now have three German routes with malfunctioning level crossings, where road vehicles ignore lowered barriers and pass in front of or even...
Absolutely this. Rivet should be on notice from DTG to fix the many outstanding issues with their content, going back to the jerky loco on Arosa....
Derby to Skegie with a pair of 20’s even better. In fact the line beyond Nottingham to Grantham, Boston and Skegness would be Day One for me!
I had that on the “Shape Of Things To Come” scenario, can’t remember the exact location but near the end. Assumed it was part of the “fun” but...
I have given Matt’s post a helpful upvote and it goes some way to addressing concerns. However that said, some of the recent DTG releases have not...
