My history (PC) is a bit mixed. I wasn’t going to buy Day 1 but the earlier streams convinced me to buy. Watched the Jubilee stream and felt...

Just to update, I have got the hang of the 8F brakes so waiting to see what the TSW version brings. Great locos though, if they have translated...

I'm cheating a bit at present by using the AI fireman, who is doing a passable job!

I got the hang of it now! When braking you have to put the brake handle off at the desired reduction, other wise it keeps destroying the vacuum....

Well I only tried the multiplayer once and didn't really get much out of it. Now you have "Otto" as in AI Despatcher that has simplified the...

Exactly. What we want is for the basics to work… Fully functional track sound over nodding cows (or donkeys). AI firing that is at least as...

Fully agree. I found one video clip of a guy driving the BMG Black Five and he actually seemed to be keeping the large ejector slightly open and...

Because they are exactly that - suggestions. DTG will only make routes and stock which will be a commercial success. They have already stated...

Run 8 has a bit of a learning curve as there are no real tutorials and no missions or scenarios to break you in. Best recommendation is to watch a...

I like all three of the “big” areas in TSW though I probably play the UK and German routes more than the US. That’s probably because I prefer Run...

I’ll try ambient light a bit higher. The other thing I need to practice with a bit is the brakes as I was really struggling to balance the small...

Further to my musings on the 9F, I took the Bossman 8F out for a spin on one of the supplied S&C scenarios yesterday evening. Now this is...

You can layer in the 33 for a classic diesel experience. IMHO the best time period on this route was when 33's, 50's and Class 205 Hampshire units...

Just had a quick go with the 8F, doing better than the first time I tried it some months ago. The main issue I am finding is that the cab...

That was my play, though buy now tell later! Didn't want to wait nearly a month for the sale...

I have noticed all my stars have disappeared and been replaced by green ticks, even on scenarios I am completing currently. Will check my Steam...

Class 180 would be useful if we ever got the Cotswold or Malvern lines. Sadly in service they used to prove quite troublesome and from a Train...

A TSW South African route with the Class 25 steam locos would be awesome but probably too much to hope for from DTG’s very limited vision.

Well I would say the 150 is half a DMU due to all the issues… But yes we need a whole host of new DMU’s and routes to run them on. The Voyagers...

I definitely think the moderators need to get in and clean up some of these suggestion threads…

1. You need to provide a bit more information, at the minimum a Wikipedia link and why you think this line would be a profitable venture for DTG...

Yes to this, plus a bit of randomisation. Of course the counter argument is that this upsets achievements and the AP rubbish. Well fine, have a...

Any bit of the GC would be good though my personal favourite is the section between Aylesbury and Rugby so you would get Brackley Viaduct, the...

If Rivet are not prepared to fix such substantial issues, then DTG need to grow a pair and not accept or grant any more projects from them for...

That's partly why I've just rebought it. Not just the future of steam but classic diesel too - "The only thing that sells is modern Electrostar...

Thanks Torfmeister.

Well I have now decided to rebuy though a bit of a conflict as having refunded once, I doubt Steam would look kindly on a second occasion....

I use the FB page a little but not the forum. There are no restrictions on "swearies" if you happen to find that kind of thing offensive. The...

This is why I rarely look at the Suggestions forum any more. Too many spammers, too little moderation. For starters if you want to suggest NYC...

Also this route is set in the 90's. Generally back then BR and the evolution into Railtrack kept the lineside much tidier than the tunnel of trees...

No updates sadly means no rebuy. I could live with the great forest of Cornwall and the Winterfell tree stumps, but not the 150 sounds and physics...

Indeed. During my self exile from the forum I was still able to access the file library. What I couldn’t do though was respond to feedback on my...

Appreciate the response JD but still begs the question as to why this was not picked up at an early stage of testing. Possibly have we hit this...

Interesting. That could indicate the TSW fireman scripting borrows heavily from the original RS/RW one.

The only downer about the route are the very limited number of supplied scenarios of which two are duplicates with the steamer using advanced...

As an interesting aside, I took the 9F out for a spin on Port Road in TSC yesterday and it seemed pretty much impossible to defeat the AI fireman....

I rejoined after a long absence but TBH there’s not much life over there. Most worthwhile discussion about DTG products can be had here these...

Out of interest I just took the 9F out for a spin on Port Road in TSC. The track sounds were quite audible in cab view even under power and with...

But as stated in other threads, if you watch the streams where the camera does a run-by or moved adjacent to the rolling stock there are still no...

Not really. It's at best carelessness (at worst sheer incompetence) on the part of the developer to omit such a vital component of a late 1950's...

Absolutely right! Trainz Surveyor rocks (just a shame about the driving experience ;) ). I think the problem may lie in the UE4 processes, this...

Interesting, which is at odds with what Matt has stated and the evidence of the ears when listening to the coaching stock running past in lineside...

Fair enough. It was hard to hear some of the commentary over the in game sound (especially the safety valve).

Is this thread any help? https://forums.dovetailgames.com/threads/unable-to-create-ukts-account.54768/

One other thing I spotted in the stream with the 8F, did it seem to me to have very little inertia when it comes to free rolling? The guy who was...

It was evident from the earlier streams they were trying to woo us with the big yards everywhere. Well track is easier to lay than scenery (even...

Even some of the best DEM can be inaccurate particularly over forested or built up areas where the satellite "sees" the trees or tall buildings as...

Yes you cannot trigger the interactive point from the 8 or 9 view, have to physically leave the driver's chair and walk to it.

I have been careful not to be specific other than directly referencing comments from the individuals concerned. It is difficult to know where the...
