Sure we already had this discussion. My smart money is on Bristol local (Weston, Severn Beach, Bristol Parkway), especially as they can now get...
I have steadily been finding my way back to TSC from TSW. Longer routes, better lighting, better train assets all have considerable appeal. I was...
Been doing a bit of Googling and reading the DTG Wiki but can't find the answer to this one - how/where do I enter a description of a route I'm...
I do wonder what went on behind the scenes with this project. Pure speculation but I would not be surprised if it didn’t start out literally as...
That’s why I tried to explain where to find the Package Manager.
It would still be nice to see the editor get some love, more user friendly (thinking Trainz Surveyor especially for terrain painting,...
Better still set it early 70’s when Westerns and Warships handled most of the internal WR expresses, Class 45 and 46 with Mark Ones (and buffet...
At It’s on the wishlist though still a few Bossman items I want to get first plus the West Somerset and Marches route in the forthcoming Steam sale.
Because these journeys are snapshots of a longer run. Take the Liverpool to Crewe run, the expresses to/from London were typically a four hour...
If it was going to happen, it would have done so by now. The fact is DTG want as much of this in house and the fact they can't get off their...
Just because there is no evidence doesn't mean to say the route shouldn't have properly sequenced signals from a playability POV, if nothing else....
To be fair though, once you've bought or in the case of freeware downloaded once, you've got them for future use. I'm currently trying out the...
I would have to disagree. TSC has far better lighting than TSW (IMHO). You can actually see where you are going without the blanket of black over...
Not really. The route was rubbish. At best a semi fictional interpretation of the West Cornwall railway and its surroundings. Overabundance of...
Even better, follow Run 8’s example where you drop cars off for loading or unloading on a siding. After a pre-determined real time the operation...
I have a feeling these also used to work across from Reading (Southern) towards Redhill, if my recollections of the old SIAM 1954 game are correct...
Usual procedure is to use Package Manager in the TS Utilities sub programme. You may need to access this from the root folder of your TS...
This is something I've suggested before, would also make some of the scenarios on other routes where you get stuck at red signals for no valid...
As regards this scenario, I did read some people had managed to complete it by propelling the rake of wagons through the closed (!) shed doors so...
This bug also exists in the PC version, I reported it a few months ago (in Technical Reports) so is not platform specific. It has also been...
Just grabbing the Weymouth route, amazed that it is freeware. Will extend my support at a future date by purchasing Stainmore which looks...
I think the BMG Rebuilt Light Pacifics are probably next on my shopping list.
Oh I have got the hang of it now. Once you’ve driven advanced, hard to go back to standard controls! I’m currently wrestling the CW Caley 956...
Very evident in that first shot is the black tar effect across the ground, in the middle distance onward which IMHO is one of the biggest visual...
It’s all done in Surveyor but frankly Trainz is still best if you want to build a replica of a model railway plan (apart from tunnels which are a...
Yes I know. It's what the boss (or apparently former boss as he's now apparently semi retired) wanted to see in the game, to recall trainspotting...
Nice idea from Rivet, something positive for a change. However it does show quite markedly where current TSW routes are clustered with the huge...
The age old problem. I've got MSTS installed alongside Open Rails and there are some real classics - North Wales Coast, Mid East Plus, the various...
They could have made a best guess. If there's not much reference material and not many people left alive who can accurately recall that era then a...
Actually I made a conscious decision not to buy Spirit Of Steam - I refunded my pre-order, twice. Even with the track joint sounds now apparently...
Indeed. It would also be good if this project became the prototype for extending the actual route too, maybe from Crewe towards Chester or Preston...
Good point… Actually, if I recall doesn’t one of the guys who does Run 8 plant biblical messages at random locations in the SoCal routes? Anyhow...
I suspect this aspect needs to be taken to a separate thread as not really OT for a thread specifically to notify members of sales etc. I got...
Thanks for that nwp1, I always like to see a mystery solved!
In a DarkDJ YT review of the Bossman Bullied Light Pacifics? The run itself starts about 15 mins in. It's a double track route with a SR theme...
I have the basic Western Mainlines and tried to open it the other evening to create a scenario, in 64 bit version. Wouldn’t open, didn’t even get...
We are probably getting off the original purpose of the thread by highlighting the fire(wo)man etc thing again and need to be careful as the last...
Definitely not steam loco physics. Maybe they based the Simugraph input on Doc Brown's loco time machine conversion at the end of Back To The...
So long as it's not like those stupid cooking games on the tablets where you have to throw together various ingredients in short order to serve an...
Thanks organist, so much to check out.
I think Joe has mentioned this is a limitation in the signalling arrangements/triggers. But yes, in reality it is a SPAD risk that would be...
Observed a slight typo in the write up for the roadmap re Greenford services. Should read West Ealing, not East Ealing. Otherwise moderately...
This is why I can’t stand that type of presentation and sadly why I fear things will never change, the attitude of the people responsible is just...
Ah, my wallet! Thanks Trev. In the meantime, I’ve added the CW CR123 and CR812’s to the collection (both very kindly free on the site) and bought...
An unfitted or partially fitted train should actually be travelling at no more than 25 MPH. In any event DTG's application of in train forces is...
The Run 8 devs are also pretty red hot with updates and bugfixes.
