Sorry, TSW4 abandoned here for the time in favour of Railroader.
DTG probably all busy playing Railroader as well... :o:o:o:o:o
ISTR Matt saying they got permissions for that but NYC Subway was a no go area. Don't shoot me, I'm just the messenger!
Ah but as I pointed out earlier in the thread, SimRail does sell for a price comparable with the UK. So in this case not so easy just to blame Steam.
Which you won’t get as already mentioned above. Matt has explained several times that MTA will not grant research access or permissions for the...
Voted £5 maximum, but only if done to a really high standard and brings in new layers or a different era to the existing one.
“We’re all in it together.” “Let’s have a referendum, the British public aren’t that stupid, oh carp they are and voted to come out.” “I’m out of...
As I mentioned earlier in the thread, you can pick up the TSC Gordon Mack/Matrix Trains coach packs for £2.99 each, which include at least three...
Having spent a couple of hours playing Railroader, definitely think this is something DTG should be looking into as an alternative to the current...
It’s an old cliche I know, but hence the favourite military saying, “No plan survives first contact with the enemy.” So when DTG whiteboard and...
Or as I said above, having sounds but making a dog's breakfast of mixing them... :)
After playing SimRail, DV, DRS and now Railroader I am now honestly of the view that Unity is a far better graphics engine for a rail simulation,...
It will be interesting to see how the price of this compares with a Matrix Trains coach pack for TSC, where £2.99 buys you a pack of several types...
Not to forget, even when DTG are given decent audio their sound engineer seems to botch it - in the case of the Class 700, too quiet, an audible...
TSW signaller is only dynamic in so far as if you are late it may route a service that was booked behind in front. Had this happen on GWE. However...
I don't regret investing in TSW as some of the early stuff was quite good. But it started to go downhill with TSW3, really. Core changes and...
DTG have said several times the challenges doing NYC Subway are too great, mainly lack of cooperation or access by the operator. However there are...
Railroader looks like it has become TSW’s kryptonite for me. Only bought it last night but can see it becoming addictive. Also been watching vids...
The scenario target was far too high and as discussed in another thread needs to be taken down to a more achievable number. In any event I have...
The problems with Vorarlberg are... It's not as scenic as the location and premise might have you believe. The chosen train is boring. Most of...
:( Regret to report that disabling the AI manual junction control did not prevent the G6 Sh05 SPAD termination. So it looks as if the only thing...
Well, let's just see if the disabling AI manual junction setting makes the problem go away.
That really is unforgiveable in a game that is played by professional railway people. Sloppy building and testing, or programming if it's the...
I have visions of DTG Towers being like the Institute in Fallout 4. All those dingy back rooms and corridors away from the glitzy central core...
321 could be a slightly retro WCML but still would need a second loco/trainset modelling for long distance services.
And with special DTG sound* insulation no pesky reindeer wheezing or sleigh bells jingling either. * Sleigh sounds supplied by AP but we, erm,...
You couldn't have foreseen that Maik! But rest assured I will test it later on and if successful maybe it will be as simple as rewriting the...
Now that is interesting as I do have this activated, firmly believing the driver should not be acting as his own shunter. Maybe I will try this...
Fair enough Maik, thanks for responding anyway.
Can you not talk to DTG about them or the original author fixing the route? Alternatively a different path to the end location or simply amend it...
I suspect the Class 156 and 321 could be misdirection for what will turn out to be a 15 mile bus stop run with a one handle EMU…
I think you may be right. Had a run with the 47 last night and something seems to have gone awry with sound. Not just the loco but even with cab...
I went with Berlin, mainly because it would be cool to see the U-Bahn from TSC across in TSW.
Ouch. I did one on Blackpool too, luckily no crash but 35 minutes and of course all it racks up is 17.5 miles. You are right about the “ruse” I...
DTG Alex can you please have a look at downgrading the scenario challenge. The maths simply doesn't work. At present Steam DB shows 647 in game,...
First train or two of the day is going to condition the railhead and the weight per square inch between wheel and rail would not normally induce...
Not to mention I might have the distraction of Railroader, if I decide to buy it this evening! :)
Only if they are actual scenarios I would have thought. The timetable runs with set weather etc. aren't going to count. Which as noted in the...
I think you may be right… And as regards scenarios, yes basically most are timetable runs with a couple of (non) random events thrown in and some...
Out of curiosity, just compared the Polish SimRail for price differential. £29.50 at full price UK. 149.99 Zlotys according to Steam DB....
I’ll take that. Another contender would be the Class 50 which could also sub into GW Legends vice the Western or Class 47.
And you don’t need to spam the same question twice…
Would be better in the 70’s or early 80’s with 1938 and 1959 stock and of course those scary narrow island platforms at several stations. The...
It’s very hard to say as you have to judge on appearance, sound and physics. For the UK I would have to go with the Class 31 as best all round. Or...
The big problem with SEHS and obviously no fault to DTG as they just modelled what’s there IRL, is that godawful slow grind calling all stations...
I suppose you could finish off any Training Centre scenarios as they tend to be short but I do think someone was a bit optimistic when setting the...
Thanks Alex. Looks like still much work to be done on scenarios. Timetables are complete and distance travelled just under half.
Of course the strange thing is, because I tend to do Journey mode on most routes, there’s not a huge amount of scenarios left on many of the...
Class 156 could be Newcastle to Carlisle or more realistically Hexham, particularly as a deal with JT could see the 142 sub in on the stopping...
I see it now, thank you. Well guess to get the mileage accumulated it's going to need to be high speed stuff n Scenarios, not bimbling around...
