We are talking the UK third rail EMU's here, North American stuff may well be configured differently.
When doing Diesel Legends I got checked down to a red in Sonning Cutting after reloading a save and couldn’t get the signal to change, game over.
The depiction in TSW is off, in reality the power is jumpered through the train so gapping, lurching or loss of line light should not really happen.
I agree with the Rev (again!). Journey mode is meant to be the “readers choice” of the route experience, the best timetable runs and scenarios...
Main problem with CRR and why I haven't played it nearly as much as it deserves, is that many of the runs and scenarios are, how can I put it,...
Seligman to Needles is in Run 8 and is actually quite heavily graded in places. Sadly the scenery is a bit bland, desert and a few hills though...
Well it does work on some routes. The older German inter urban like Rhein Ruhr Osten seems to restore okay as does the new Chemnitz route. For the...
Do we know if DTG and/or Skyhook have acknowledged the train loads/physics are wrong? I haven’t seen any input from them in the thread, though...
Exactly, as I noted yesterday in the thread. This had the potential to be the ultimate route to spend a whole shift driving trains over several...
Joe is the timetable author at DTG.
This is the sort of route that would really open up the "world" aspect of TSW. Something so far removed from yet another mundane British or German...
Something like the Spokane to Sandpoint Funnel would be good (before the double tracking and maybe in BN green days), or anything in the Pacific...
Although with hindsight, FSW didn't require over 100Gb of HD space, didn't need to spend 30 minutes each time you go back to it downloading...
BR were actually quite good, at least until sectorisation took hold but that is probably a debate for another thread.
Well I haven't bought HSC yet (maybe in a sale if the physics get fixed) but on mileage driven (not accurate): Sherman Hill 17 miles (which I know...
As per my comment above, although the Class 700 holds no personal interest for me (I would prefer a 4 VEP or 4CIG), I would be reluctant to buy...
However it's all for nought on a route where you can only reliably run a service in one go without saving and resuming later.
It should go to Perth and be set in 1978 so we can thrash the 40 up the bank out of Queen Street. Throw in a Class 26 or Class 27 and maybe...
This route has been suggested numerous times already. However you are unlikely to get the full run in TSW unless DTG change their stance on...
Realistically, I would prefer a 303 or 311.
Indeed. I really think the forum CoC should be updated to discourage the juvenile, "I wanna crash my train, blah", type comments. I also feel and...
You can exceed the speed limit without any real consequence, other than not receiving AP. Done it a few times on West Somerset and doing yard work...
Would be a lovely run, if a little light on traffic levels. I have the old Railscene cab video, filmed from a Class 108, which so long as you...
Love them or hate them, mostly hate, they are nevertheless an iconic part of the UK, well English/Welsh, rail scene for the last 35 years. So yes,...
As I’ve mischievously noted before, DTG can be very fickle when it comes to product. Flight Sim World seemed to be going very well, even to the...
Indeed Mike. I know we are a bit critical of Run 8 graphics over at TS dot com, but when you can go 500 miles from Fresno to Seligman, that's a...
Sorry Maik but while I respect your views I must fundamentally disagree. There are certain minimum expectations when it comes to a route/stock...
Not good... What on earth is going on with TSW at the moment? Bugs galore, flawed new releases and now breaking existing routes. Someone needs a...
Hopefully one day DTG will decide to break out of their comfort zone and do a Japanese route for TSW. Surprised they're not encouraging Union...
DRS is very good and has also expanded to include some loco hauled trains. The graphics aren't quite in the same league as TSW but are improving,...
Absolutely. Same as taking over any train where "face to face" relief occurs, you would just hand your key to the driver alighting while theirs's...
Cardiff Valleys or something in the Bristol area could also offer this.
All this to me bodes ill for the steam route with if anything even more complex signalling and AI movement requirements.
What a fail. Money staying in wallet. Unless of course it’s a tutorial run as for some reason only known to DTG, these cannot be saved.
As I’ve mentioned previously, the SIAM traffic control game for Lime Street set in 1958 would probably reveal all. Just that no-one (including...
Don't think this really qualifies as a quick "Quality Of Life" upgrade which was the OP intent. More of a suggestion for a completely new game and...
Yes a vintage route would give it something to stand out from the ones which already exist.
That's why it needs to be an option, i.e. completely moveable, resizeable and opacity.
And centre it. Find myself squinting to the right a lot of the time, which can't be good for the eyesight. NB: This thread probably belongs in...
Bristol area @2010 would give superb scope for fairly modern stuff. A little network including Weston, Severn Beach, Bristol Parkway and maybe out...
I would still just like to be able to finish Chopper And Change… :)
You are not really going to beat the Run 8 version or the other sims the route appears in. Tehachapi is a bit like Settle & Carlisle for the UK,...
Well there we can agree. I'm very much looking forward to steam, even if it's not one of the routes on my signature wishlist. Quietly hoping DTG...
I suppose not. Doesn’t change the fact they are incredibly tedious and boring as per my original assertion. Of course it might help if we had...
Interesting. I wonder if they updated that broken scenario for the 20 on TVL I keep moaning about, or would that be a route update? Edit:...
I do actually tend to agree with that. I splashed out on West Highland South and the Shasta route for TS Classic in recent sales. The latter in...
Would certainly offer something different.
I still maintain the Yorkshire coal field centred around Knottingley would provide an excellent basis for a classic UK late 80s or early 90s route...
Couldn't agree more. We have a host of classic diesels (of which the Class 45 probably the best) but nowhere to really unleash them. Part of the...
FTFY!
