Ironically something like that might have been better for the first "SOS" route, nice and compact but a network with a nice permutation of...
This is why I would have been more confident if they had done something like the S&D or any of the others on my wish list, maybe even just a short...
Looks like it's the fact the HUD doesn't correctly show the state of the controls which had thrown me. Ah well, next time it pops up in a sale...
Noted for future reference but for now I've refunded it as just a little over complex for my little brain. Kudos to Bossman for making it a bit...
I pressed and held down E, W shot straight to 100% with no control, released E but then the reverser still snapped back to 0. Too complex for my...
Just dropping a not so subtle hint to Matt that the Mark Ones in SOS must not have BR Blue or grey/check (known as Trojan) moquette! Although in...
Slight downer from me. Just tried the Bossman 8F in TS, had to give up in consternation and refund it. Seems to have been designed for the "pro"...
Mods please feel free to lock or delete this, no wonder the topic hasn't come up before.
Just purchased this to get a taste of what's to come in TSW2. I'm struggling to set the reverser which simply springs back to the zero position...
It was the third one in Journey mode which I think is the 1056 from Hermosa to Cheyenne in the Timetable.
Agree, but I don't think BML could handle any additional trains if anything the timetable needs thinning out to reduce the possibility of...
Well maybe not plastic rubbish exactly then, would be nice to have something you can actually see out the front!
More plastic rubbish.
Around 35 MPH on the 1.5% section. Sorry, but the train brakes should be quite capable of not only slowing but stopping the consist, otherwise...
They could use the brake rub sounds from the 45, which always give my spine a bit of a tingle. In fact the 45 sounds are far superior to both of...
As far as I can tell, yes. Though in truth I never saw the EOT go above 85 the whole run which may again come back to Simugraph struggling with so...
Fair enough! Obviously I’m an old fossil when it comes to that sort of thing then… :)
You will be losing out on a lot of great stuff if you restrict your experience to UK routes.
Well I finished my run down into Cheyenne. I really think the braking performance on the consists is not quite as it should be - shouldn't take a...
Or Easter, which is quite late this year.
It is made quite clear at the start of the game the risks involved in walking on the real railway line. However "in game" you are present as a...
Finishing my 5 FPS stutter fest on Sherman, coming into Cheyenne my eyes couldn't help be drawn towards the garish graffiti on the side of several...
Might be worth a try but the catch is due to the ongoing hardware shortage and the bitcoin farms still snapping up what does become available,...
I have an I7 4770 at 3.5Ghz, 24 Gb RAM and a GTX 1650 (not super) graphics card with 4Gb of Vram. It runs most routes very well apart from Sherman...
Had a quick look on Steam for the TS 8F but can’t see it listed. Any idea how it’s described?
I expect there will be a modified HUD for steam showing the essential readings, steam pressure, boiler water level, fire level/temp etc. Similar...
You could be right, as some mention a Rugby portion. This is going to get interesting!
Actually there are a few hefty gaps in the week (far more SO services). For example on the Up... You have a 1205 to Ditton stopper with the next...
A brief look at those timetables shows quite a lot of trains actually, some of the expresses going to Birmingham not London. I wonder if we will...
Nice find James. Time to do some reading up.
7P would require a Royal Scot, then.
Interesting, have managed to abstract the daytime Down Liverpool weekday service from Euston in 1958 from the SIAM game (which runs from 0700 to...
I believe 8F's were used along with Jintys at Euston on ECS to Willesden. Likewise sometimes engines off a previous arrival could be used tender...
Sorry, I completely disagree with a monthly subscription. N3V are pursuing this with Trainz. Either a one off purchase or I walk on by.
Well for anyone to have experience of this route at the time it’s set, by now they would be in their late 70’s or early 80’s. And beware the...
Well I have to conclude, leaving performance issues aside, if there was an award for the most boring route in TSW2, Sherman Hill should get it....
I wonder if you will get a game over "blowback" if you have the firebox door open going through a tunnel!
Yes, when your GPU overheats trying to render all those yards and sidings and multiple tracks everywhere!!! :)
Well both have their good and bad points. I'm playing TSW2 at present but for the UK, the primary focus is fairly modern stuff though the classic...
Just Crewe to Liverpool has good scope for DLC, as already mentioned the following are possibilities: Class 3F 0-6-0 Jinty and additional freight...
Thanks Wavey, I'll try that as well.
Looking at some P3 coach images, must admit would have been nice to see these in the game. Hopefully in a DLC along with a Duchess or Royal Scot.
Already suggested by me - see below! https://forums.dovetailgames.com/threads/steam-heat-effects.51268/
Think I can split my concerns into three main areas: 1. Performance. We have already seen with Sherman Hill that a swathe of plain terrain with...
That's why, 1. I reckon it will be Xmas which of course then leads into the possibility of no other UK route this year unless one of the third...
That will come with the Jinty DLC along with a few more wagon types, I expect!
Seems like a worthwhile idea to me. At the moment we have discussions going on across various subs, which are forever in danger of getting buried...
Thought this worth abstracting from the main Crewe to Liverpool “SOS” thread as it has a wider application for other classic or heritage UK...
I get that it was the editor, obviously not a case of what you see is what’s in the final product then. Worth mentioning nonetheless as it’s not...
And need to reflect the appearance in that time period, as I just posted in the main thread in PC discussion. In particular the correct seat...
