I really don't think camera acceleration is a good gauge of physics realism... The TSW camera acceleration isn't even that realistic, just check...
Hey, no problem. Most of this stuff is super esoteric so it is quite expected to miss details etc. By the way, I found a video that I thought was...
Was this an old graph from DTG or is SimuGraph available or are you (DominusEdwardius) a developer? Also yes, the German locomotives are fixed in...
I follow everyone else in thanking you for the feedback! I have a question about the brake suggestions. I read somewhere a while ago from a 377...
That looks very interesting!
Wow those are interesting looking graphs. How did you get them, I you don't mind me asking? I retested the brakes on RSN. Test train was the...
I don't see why they would need to make it this complicated? The test route is not supposed to be realistic, just a way to test trains. In Test...
I've only briefly driven the freight train scenarios for the Muff mod. Are some of these actually following stopping services? "On East Coastway...
I can't find Q008 in the timetable. What time was it?
For me what is most entertaining when driving trains is when you are following another train and have to anticipate adverse signal aspects and...
We have something similar in TS2021 (Testtrak), so I'd love for it to be in TSW as well. Ultimately I'm still holding out hope for some kind of...
I'm planning on compiling a relatively short .pdf that can be uploaded/sent to DTG. My aim is to very explicitly describe how to change the...
Yeah, I think that's the route I used, I just wish I could fit a Sand Patch train there haha. I did some testing of the coal train under mediocre...
Although I agree that the thread is a bit harsh (DTG are real people after all ;)), I still think scathing criticism is justified when they...
Huh, I always thought it was the opposite. That's great news. EDIT: I must say, from the short bit of the video I watched it looks better than...
I've been using imported SRTM DEM data for my route but noticed (after I laid about 10km of track) that my starting point station is about 5...
Is the Class 390 in this video the discontinued DTG "TS Pro" Virgin Class 390 or the really old RSDL one (certainly looks like the new one)? I...
Yes, I tried to find areas where the gradient was flat or 0.1%. Although, as long as the gradient doesn't change you would see the same forms of...
[ATTACH] Update: I tested the Class 101 from the Tees Valley preserved collection DLC: As can be seen from the graph the Class 101 has more...
I agree that TSW is young in simulator terms. Train Simulator could be said to have started back in 2007 with Rail Simulator and didn't really get...
Most people don't know how trains behave and what to expect, so unless the train is braking in 100m from 160 km/h or the sound is completely...
I guess you're right. Even with old TSxx/Railworks the modding tools were subpar in ease of use, but at least they existed. My point was that if...
Good question about the brake force at zero. You cannot regenerate kinetic energy as electrical energy if there is no kinetic energy so no...
[ATTACH] I agree, Stujoy, that the Class 101 feels like it really bites at low speed, I'll need to test it to make sure it's not just the same old...
Hightower expressed my views so exactly (and eloquently) that I might just be the victim of some kind of arcane mind meld :D Basically DTG is the...
Yeah, I agree with that. I might make a small .pdf with graphs comparing TSW2 and what it should be and also give them the exact tables that they...
Hmm, that's a tricky question to answer hehe. I would say that I derive the most enjoyment out of trying to drive the trains in as realistic...
TSW2 preserved collection RSN. I don't have TSW2020 installed atm. TSW2020 had variable braking force vs speed (due to coefficient of friction...
We've already had this discussion. AC4400 are AC locomotives as the name implies, they will produce max brake force down to a very low speed. So...
I tested the loaded coal train on RSN. First off it seems like the briefing is more wrong than the actual weight of the train. Acceleration of the...
Not sure how you are getting Zwangsbremsung since all the RSN freight trains brake like they are empty ;) One issue might be if you are driving...
I've encountered a reproducible error in the editor where if I try to raise the track it causes an out of memory exception with exception code:...
With how unfinished and poorly tested the latest two releases (Frankfurt-Koblenz has a huge number of QA issues) from DTG has been, it almost...
Basically: the Falns wagons on RSN are completely bugged and weigh more than North American freight wagons that are designed for 32.5 tonne axle...
Okay, I made a small executable from my python code. It takes the time it took the train to stop from it's design Vmax and then calculates a BrH...
The R-value is for when R-brake (Rapid) is used, this will only be used for passenger trains or when the locomotive is single engine, and perhaps...
;)
Not to be a nit picker (although I am :D) but I would caution against trusting whether the wagon brake setting has been set to loaded or empty...
Awesome, thanks for the link!
Hmmmmm, haha ;) Well, frankly I don't know if the Eddy current brake is used or where it is used, perhaps the use of it in emergency overrides the...
2 questions: 1. Bremshebel = brake handle, I.e the undercarriage lever for "Leer","Beladen" and printed "Umstellgewicht"? I don't speak German...
Yes, the eddy current brakes can cause annealing of the tracks, not very good ;). As far as I know they are still used, but some lines (or...
Speed you follow = min{ATC Speed, Track Speed}
I wanted to see how quick I could stop the ICE3M with emergency brake the other day and found out that no matter whether you use full service (VB...
I don't understand this sentence :D Is "Mod by Muff" a moderator or a mod, and if the latter could you link it? EDIT: I did some googling and...
So from what I have gathered, the 100 klbf at 1mph is not necessarily incorrect as the AC4400 has AC traction motors which can produce high...
Stujoy, maybe my question is redundant since the issue is on the road map but could you perhaps test the locomotive in full dynamic braking like...
I had a discussion with someone about this a while ago. If the generators (what the motors essentially are during dynamic braking) are actually...
You raised some interesting points, but ultimately I'm not sure I'm convinced. As long as you make the velocity of the wheel in the fixed train...
Not sure if this was aimed at me. I tried to reply in a blunt/straight forward way but not rudely, since I felt a lot of false statements were...
Separate names with a comma.
