One thing that puzzles me, and it seems to be very consistent in CSX-era Chessie locos: the panels on the cab sides, upper, lower or both, have...
This is the original, from the '30s. [IMG]
Is that the case? My impression was that Adam's team's portfolio is specifically the Preserved Collection, that is, the routes and locos ported...
There's a certain inconsistency in those two paragraphs; the first decries the lack of core integration and route-by-route implementation, but the...
I would be interested if they follow up with a BR 218 DLC, not otherwise. After all, one of the more interesting aspects of the Lubeck region was...
This point can't be emphasized enough. Although, to be honest, the concept would have been more consistent had BRB come out at a lower price...
Um, no. BRB was done by the gameplay team to give them something to do, specifically NOT using the loco-modeling or route-building teams (who are...
That is a function of the developing roadmap system, not "false promises." The Roadmap until February simply included too much stuff and had to...
"Falsely promising?" That smacks of the OP vlogger's whinge about steam. You know perfectly well that until memory optimization, Bakerloo can't...
I never buy any software, gaming or otherwise, on the release date. Always buggy, without exception; best to wait for the patches. Does anyone...
One of the services in the NTP heavy freight pack involves a "newspaper train"- not further explained, but I imagine hauling today's editions of...
"former volunteer beta tester" <> "used to work for DTG"
oh, Jesus, not this same illogic again. You get additional layers if you happen to own other DLC. Well, duh! Same as the German routes. It's...
i'm guessing April 4, a week after Arosa
Platform lights (in game) are run on a fixed timer without regard to actual visibility.
And to get the "full use" out of HMA one would have to own MSB, RRO, the 155 and the 182. Throwing in in layers as "required purchases" is the...
And equally easy to pick the most and the biggest numbers to add.
Unfortunately, that doesn't help with the Journey mode version
How much do you think a 3-loco pack would cost? DTG can't model new trains and just give them away. I would have been interested in BRB had it...
Fair point- but how likely is it that players who are interested in the BR era don't already have NTP, WSR and TVL?
Yes, you're right, I confused the two Dash-2s. (Not that they're really, really similar or anything...) But now I'm confused about DTG claiming...
The C40-8W was never affected by the bug. Only EMD engines.
They explained why- have you not been paying attention? The scenario team was left with some dead time between projects, and DTG set them to do...
Do you work as a bookkeeper for a Hollywood studio? They would be impressed at this exercise in claiming the highest possible costs conceivable.
All of Clinchfield's SD45-2s were delivered well after the timeframe depicted, and in Family Lines paint; they never wore CRR livery. So that may...
Actually, I like setting them up; I tend toward the every-knob-and-switch detail if possible. Frankly, I wish coupling involved manually...
Next one coming along [ATTACH]
Correct. DTG may model MU setup for other countries in the future, but for now it's done for you on UK and German routes.
If anyone is underserved it's fans of German vintage.
The set's almost complete; just the Chessie to go (and maybe one more) [IMG] This one, sadly, is just about completely unweathered (dang layer...
Here's something which shows somebody cared- The freight services added to NTP by the Heavy Freight pack aren't just random, and not just the...
Just because a service is limited to 160, that doesn't mean it can't or won't use LZB if available- it's easier for the driver, and safer for the...
Agreed. I've switched it off. Next I have to play with FOV and try to reduce that weird fisheye effect.
Larches turn brown and shed their needles- deciduous conifers.
ca 1971 they wouldn't have been wearing orange safety vests. How many nits could a nitpicker pick if a nitpicker did pick nits?
It's worth an ask I guess whether they sent a research team to the USA to study No 800 in person; if so they could have recorded audio as well....
Another one getting close.... [IMG] Hmmm- actually, the painted red stripes and the red decal shouldn't match - they never did - I'm going to...
DLCs go on sale too, for as little as $10 (7 GBP). You can't compare sale prices to list prices.
Fair enough- but building a model for TS doesn't require nearly as much detailed info.
I think on balance it is more likely that DLC engines will be a GP7 and/or SW7 or NW2. DTG have no database on pre Dash-8 GE engines; it would be...
Then I am mystified. It worked for me again immediately after, at least on PC. Is it just the 465, or everything?
I wouldn't panic- the whole point of the QA/beta process is to find glitches so they're fixed before release. You know, like so many people yell...
Yes.
Which applied to SEHS and LIRR. They do updates one or two routes at a time, otherwise the downloads would be 70 GB. Any time they make a change...
At least US diesels. In TVL, Class 37 MUs come pre-setup, and in MSB banking just requires turning on banking comms. The AC4400 is a little...

I can't see any difference
As Matt commented in the Bakerloo stream, if they are going to do all the research required to add an additional country, like France or the...
JGRudnick made an interesting observation: So that's what all this talk about US Standard 27-pin connectors is- they need to add functionality...
I wound up shoving the heralds down below the headlights; better that than lose them!
