Yes so it would have to be added as part of a reworked and reliveried, "Spirit Of Early Diesel" DLC!
Or go back to MSTS days, one developer had sourced a very dour voice, "Right away, driver..."
In theory, the "brand new" Class 20's could be layered in on a Railtour from the Nottingham area, coming off the Uttoxeter line at Crewe South,...
For Spirit Of Steam you wouldn't even have the buzzer - you would be looking back from the cab for the station staff or guard to give "right away"...
What I would *like* it to be... Rhine Valley Koln to Koblenz (or how far 90km takes you). Koln to Trier via Gerolstein (or how far 90km takes...
We are still waiting for someone to buy the SIAM Lime Street 1958 and take a peak! Unfortunately these games were always expensive and £30 is a...
Indeed. The only diesels you could conceivably layer in to SOS are: Class 08 (1953 onwards). Class 20 (1957). Class 24 (1958). Class 26 (1958)....
Again without being political, why are Steam even continuing to sell stuff in Russia, especially given the horrific images we have seen coming out...
This, basically. And if it's yet another inter urban yawn fest with red Electric Karts and Dosto's, haven't got the slightest bit of interest. I...
I would be more inclined to buy a NYC subway route, maybe slightly retro with Redbird type cars than yet another 30 mile NE inter urban route.
Would love to see something from the Balkans.
I have already passed on Harlem (too short), I won't buy another Rivet route until WCL gets some love (plus Luzern is another short modern route)....
It all starts with the basics. Fix the broken save game, fix the lighting, fix the sounds. As I commented in the similar PC area threads I get the...
The save feature is there and should work. In fact it does work on some routes but the outcome is random. Some scenarios are too long to complete...
TBH without the core updates in particular the saved game, I am rapidly losing interest, period. An attempt at the "Last Resort" Journey scenario...
Generally Journey mode, at least until (if) the save game is ever fixed to allow you to keep train jumping and build up a full day on the route.
Let's just hope they don't base them on the old Kuju MSTS jointed track sound, which was like someone hitting an anvil then slowed down by 50%!
Oh I fully agree Alex, was simply going on what the current parameters seem to be. If DTG really want to revolutionise TSW in the 5 years going...
Indeed something like Coventry to Wolverhampton, maybe including the bypass route via Bescot for freight traffic would be outstanding, regardless...
Yes but some of these threads have been running for a while. The whole point in having an “in house” company provided forum is to facilitate...
Yep. Just alluded to that in the better sounds thread. There is definitely a feeling of moving back from such close contact with the player base...
Please try reading what I posted... York to Newcastle is around 80 miles. Current maximum TSW route length is around 55 miles. 80 - 55 = 25...
So I'm guessing this is the thread to respond to the OP... York to Newcastle as it stands is at least 20 - 25 miles too long for a TSW route, so...
Compared to other West Midlands routes or (say) part of the Marches Line, this is not really the best candidate.
DTG have not announced any more French routes, LGV or otherwise. So far as we know, there are no plans to release an official third party route...
They are so fixated on Scouse Steam, I think everything else has been swept under the carpet. We have this thread, we have the "Niggles" thread,...
I suspect they sampled the sounds from a contemporary preserved version probably retrofitted with Leyland engines (and botched the mix). the 101's...
Yes with hindsight they could have tested the water with a steam loco DLC for WSR. We probably would have whined and grizzled about 25 MPH etc....
I think they are just so fixated on Spirit Of Steam, everything else has gone to the dogs. The enthusiasm and passion we see in the streams does...
Definitely set in the 1980’s which is when I travelled over the line. Silberlinge stock, albeit painted ocean blue and cream, for that extra bit...
Or an understanding of what the game is about especially if, as rumoured, they are using Indian call centre drones to do the testing. Aside from...
So can you detail what steam locos or excursions use the line? Although I have heard of it, sadly probably a little too obscure for a commercial...
210 miles about 4x what DTG are likely to include in a TSW route.
I'll give it a try... No still broken on PC. Sat at the signal for over three minutes repeatedly tabbing the signaller, but would not clear with...
Well the good news is the 6M09 scenario which previously fell down in Journey mode now seems to work without the train getting stuck at an eternal...
I was going to fire this up and check out the updates but a bit wary now. Skybox looks nice but for naught if my progress on the route and...
So they can sell us a Jinty and/or 4MT tank loco as a £13.99 DLC, then a LMS or BR suburban coach set for £6.99.
Might put some potential buyers off but in terms of motivating the developer to put things tight, probably very little.
A Class 207 would go down very nicely.
A 142 would offer the most flexibility in terms of area. 143's started off on Tyneside then ended up transferred to Canton for Cardiff Valleys...
Ah yes, they are all red plastic electric karts to me. And Koln to Aachen is just yet another pretty much dead straight flatlands German...
As stated earlier it would need a much improved platform on which to run. Same as why I won't be buying the PMDG 737 for MSFS. And I don't think...
As I said in another thread, TS and Run 8 now hold more interest. Even Spirit Of Steam is losing its appeal, running as it will be on the same...
The secret is to play Run 8 for a few days, then try it… In truth though graphics aren’t the b all and end all of it, as we have seen with TSW and...
And there lies the quintessential truth of the matter. Until DTG sort out the various save game issues, the black as pitch ground/track in certain...
You miss the point. Feature would be there to overcome a signalling lock up or scripting error, like in Chopper or Change, which prevents the...
Where did they say that? Personally there is huge scope for freight - Yorkshire Coalfield (Knottingley), Mendip Stone, Buxton area (Tunstead...
No, SPAD unrecoverable even when the game itself has borked.
Well yes, what a lovely route from what I've seen so far. Managed to do the first of the switching turns (took me three attempts to find the...
In the end I put my money into the Shasta route for TS. So far not regretting it, albeit took three attempts to find the correct route out of...
