In terms of length, all you have to do is use the 2 or 3 view and count. As far as I know, there's no way to determine overall train weight in TSW.
Time to change the scratched record? I've run across a few comments about adjusting the seats in the 204, but haven't been able to figure out how...
I'm sure that this would require the editor; that said, a couple of intrepid pioneers have managed to "make" scenarios by high-jacking engines or...
Yep! Thanks.
It's really sad that DTG forced all of you (including the one who can't count) to buy TSW in the first place, subsequently purchase all (less than...
Yep -- that's the thread! Thanks. How did you create that link to the other thread?
Thanks for your input, Jasper, but this is a typical case of the boy who cried bug. The scenario in question is neither "broken" nor "bugged":...
Evidently not, but all of these gripes and grunts about the editor strike me as camped in air, since the only physical evidence that exists...
Since I tend to avoid passenger runs, I'll just note that the in the activities included in the Caltrain MP15DC add-on, all of the switched...
The T&S thread about this scenario to which I responded earlier seems to have vanished, but since I took the trouble to run this scenario again I...
May I suggest that you get your eagle eyes some Visene, Sparmi?
I've run this scenario without any problems whatsoever. It's a very good shunting activity, so I'll take it on again just to make sure that...
Picture this: the DTG team assigned to developing the TSW editor huddled around a computer . . . slogging through all of the pointless, nagging &...
Would I like having more to do with this marvelous shunter? Of course I would. But instead of wining, griping, and cursing, I intend to correspond...
I haven't watched Matt's entire stream with this engine, but I just ran part of the session that involves Lohr and there was no overpass in sight...
Some of the DB BR 204's activities do include running on mainline tracks.
Timetable Session "Extra 07" begins as a well-planned switching exercise on the Peninsula Corridor route that involves rescuing a passenger train...
Yes, the PASS and GOODS indicators on the "dashboard" (not sure of the correct term for this) indicate the type of train being operated. In some...
Frankly, I'd be much more impressed if the author of the Newhaven Aggregates tutorial had set the train type to "Goods" before beginning to drive.
A clear instance of "You can't teach a new dog old tricks"?!?
Would that be realistic, though? Perhaps I'm wrong, but I cannot imagine, for example, a British livery ever showing up on a US or German route....
Thanks for responding -- as often happens, I missed watching that stream and haven't been able to find it on Twitch.
Just curious -- how do you "know" this?
Your decision and your loss, IMHO. I'll be enjoying myself, shunting repeatedly through various seasonal conditions . .
Actually, when I explored those yard areas a few days ago on foot, I found many hand-thrown (yes, operable) switches within the yard areas....
When I recently asked DTG support about this, they provided a link to the switcher's sales page, where a download link to the manual will...
Very impressive modeling techniques! Even more impressive, perhaps, is the narrator's ability to switch between German and English almost in the...
It seems that the "Devblog" video referenced by Michael Newbury above disproves your "discovery".
DRsim?
I'm really enjoying the TSW + reshade combination. Thanks for recommending it and providing your settings. When TSW starts now, there's a message...
First of all, folks, aren't you discussing an engine, not a train? Secondly, doesn't the engine you're calling "flat nose"have a name or designation?
A recent DLC engine (I cannot recall which one) featured an entry steps motion that excellently simulated climbing up to its cab. Since that...
I admire you for trying to bring this thread back to your original topic.
Aha! Thanks. I'm still hopeful that DTG will eventually bring out a supplemental activities pack that will utilize all of this route's trackage.
I'm not sure why you translated my question into French, but, yes, the second screenshot you added clearly displays those folks on the tracks. A...
I'll echo this: no difficulty running this activity. However, your decision to switch engines, although sensible, may have caused the problem....
This situation has been noted elsewhere in these forums and, I think, been fixed -- or at least is known to the development team.
One thing we can be sure of: this isn't a bait and switch!
This is the "map" that appears in the user manual: [ATTACH]
See the message directly above mine.
The autorack cars, I'm pretty sure, first appeared with the Main-Spessart route. At least, they're a common sight in the freight activities there.
Don't be so sure of that. Since walking through these yard areas is possible and the manual switches are fully operable, my guess is that trains...
For now, yes, but these areas of the route haven't been used for rail traffic until now. Isn't it possible that all three loaders (the third...
Have you considered a vertical mouse? They're easier on the wrist and I've found mine, from Anker, easier to move around.
Another switching [ranghieren?] DLC! I couldn't resist spawning in walking in the Aschaffenburg yards, which contain some interesting machinery,...
These are screenshots of the two yard areas mentioned in the article: [ATTACH] Aschaffenburg docks [ATTACH] Lohr area
I just noticed this a few days ago: the 2D view, which I'm pretty sure used to be opaque, is just transparent enough to make what's happening...
The BR Heavy Freight Pack, which includes two engines and a number of add-on scenarios, sessions and tutorials is already available, as are other...
I thoroughly agree with the concept! I think it's Michael Stephan who has made randomly skinned freight cars for TS, so shouldn't that be possible...
Just for the record, I'm 95% sure that while driving a timetable activity on the CN route a day or so ago I passed a RR crossing with its gate up...
