Something, possibly in a recent update, has disabled the dynamic brakes on all EMD locomotives, making it impossible to enjoy SPG and Penn Corridor.
Got to believe that at least one of the CM's has read this thread; it would be nice to see some kind of acknowledgment of the problem. It is a...
I'll delve into my library when I get a chance and do some more research on this subject.
No, the original purpose of building the railroad was to exploit the Virginia coalfields and to transport the coal to South Carolina, Georgia and...
Also, count yourself fortunate that you played this scenario after it was "fixed" by removing the half that didn't work right. Many of us were...
If you also have the brake valve set to "freight" and MU2A to "Lead or Dead" on the lead loco, you should be good to go. I recall this is done on...
Clinchfield 12pm day of release. I'm tempted by Arosa, but still undecided. I must say the wait for these routes is long. In fact, the pace of...
It's too perfect. Nobody pours concrete that smooth. It's also too clean, looks like you could eat lunch off of it.:D
Must admit, the more I see of this route, the more my interest is piqued. Love those window shades in the passenger cars. One question: what is...
Very perceptive of you. I hadn't noticed that.
The bursts of radio chatter on SPG are a little annoying, because they're unintelligible. Some understandable chatter, no matter how brief, might...
For what it's worth, the setups for all the F7 scenarios on the TS202X version of CRR are A-B-B-A. If DTG sticks with that, it's a straightforward...
Yes, tried it myself on PC and the dynamic brakes do not work at all on the GP38 and SD40 locomotives. Should we press the panic button?
After I posted this, I recalled that, in response to an earlier thread, DTG said that higher prices would not change the quality of their final...
I hope this is fixed pronto, otherwise how can we continue playing SPG? I fear that we will get the usual response.... "passed on.....can't give...
And that loco's dynamic brake doesn't work properly either, even before the update.
I think this is an important point. I've never seen any evidence on the forum that players are willing to lay down serious money for really...
Oh dear! I'll have to check this out and see for myself. This would not be good. How could an update that doesn't even involve SPG or PCR break...
I hate this constant reference to compromise. We can't do this or that because it uses too many resources that would be better etc.... I know my...
I must admit I was very impressed with the modeling and especially the sound of the Class 52, both inside and out. It seems different to the WSR...
Very interesting interview. Certainly whets the appetite for this locomotive and shows the care that's going into the modeling, though I would...
Right, the dynamic brakes work just fine on all the SPG locos except the AC4400CW. Make sure the throttle is idle for about 30-60 seconds, then...
Well, we'll see tomorrow what this pack actually looks like. Maybe some changes have been made to improve the authenticity factor. I get the...
Thanks for the heads up. I'll be sure to avoid that update. Have you tried verifying your game files on Steam?
You're quite right. Good to know that someone's keeping track of this sort of thing. I guess this particular fix may have ended up in the circular...
If you haven't run it in game, you might be able to get a refund.
Yes, way over the line. Deserves at least a reprimand from the Moderator.
Why do people rush to judgment at the first whisper of the route? Why tear down the house before it's even been built? At least wait for a stream...
I get your point about the tools and editor and I certainly would like at least to make my own consists and scenarios for my personal use and...
How extraordinary. I wonder why. I thought the pandemic restrictions on movement only applied to people.
Interesting. I find it much more difficult to maintain a consistent downgrade speed when using the dynamic brake on the AC4400CW than with the...
One example is the "new" animated grade crossings introduced in SEHS. (I don't yet have the route, so I'm going by the streams.) The impression we...
The Heavy Freight Pack for NTP was $19.99 (what, about UK14-15?). I imagine this pack will be the same. For someone who doesn't have 2 or3 of...
Hope so. Just trying to egg them on. ;)
Isn't it about time we had another article on CRR? It's been close to two weeks since the announcement and I think we're all anxious for some...
Gets my vote. Should have been done with the Oakville Sub.
Right, this will become a big problem if and when we get a scenario editor that allows us to make up our own consists. We won't be able to use...
I'm as excited about this route as everyone else, but I can't help thinking back to the almost frenzied anticipation for the SEHS in the two weeks...
Is there any evidence to suggest that steam engines will come with selectable modes, such as "beginner", " simple ", " expert " etc. Personally, I...
If you look closely, you can find people walking up and down the streets of Cumberland (and maybe other settlements on SPG).
Well, NS have licensed their fallen flags to DTG, Including Conrail, as I said.
Sorry, but I really don't think the price for a complete route plus stock ($29.99) is too much, not for 6 months of development work. However, I...
DTG has released TS 20XX loco packs with fallen flags from UP, NS and B&O, just to name a few. If they can use CRR, I'm pretty sure they can use...
You'll probably have to wait until mid to late June.
There's a twice a day Amtrak service that shares SPG's tracks. It's not modeled in the game, but realism dictates the split speed limit. And, as...
One day, in a galaxy far, far away, someone might be moved to model the famous Clinchfield Santa Train? ;);)
That's interesting. Does that mean that Swiss people are multilingual?
I have no problem with cleaning up and modernising the interiors of the big railway stations, but the unfortunate aspect of this trend in the US...
I'll probably buy this pack. I don't know an awful lot about UK rail, so the authenticity factor is not relevant for me. But I like to drive...
Another interesting thing about the U36C is that DTG added it to the TS Clinchfield, which was supposedly set in the early 1980's, after I believe...
