It'll pick a road number at random from the range 4000 to 4019, i.e. the first series of 20 locomotives. Furthermore, the tender number will match...
In "Smokebox" locos, pressing Ctrl Shift R gives you a "Performance Report" pop-up that includes consist length (in feet) and weight (in short tons).
Many thanks, I really do appreciate the kind words and I'm very glad to know that people can see the admiration I have for these steam locomotives :)
Every item of rolling stock seen in the consists behind the Big Boy will be included in the pack.
The tender is almost finished (just a few minor details and some animations are still to be added), so I'm going ahead with another YouTube live...
Thanks, it seems to have a bug when the signature is empty. I've put my Facebook page link in now. Let's see if that works.
Yes, it tries to post an image (not sure of what) every time I post a reply. Very strange! I'll be doing another live stream, probably next...
Yes, it can :) It can even be operated with Simple Controls. You won't even have to choose between a "HUD" and "Adv" version of the model,...
Ah, good to know ... I must've missed the announcement about that.
You need to run Setup_Audio.bat. It's located in your RailWorks root folder (usually C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\RailWorks).
Hmm, I see it in the list, but it shouldn't be there! As far as I know, the "Connie" is available globally. TrainSim-ChrisTS, would you mind...
Ah, I see, it's a clever real world system for dealing with overcharge :)
Sounds excellent! It's good to see more people implementing clever ways of increasing the realism of TS. My overcharging simulation also does the...
Hi, while I can't speak for anyone else, for my own locos it's all explained in the accompanying manuals, usually located in C:\Program Files...
Yes, kiski is right about the fact that TS does not actually allow the simulation to cancel the braking effect of the engine/loco/independent...
Thanks very much treid09, I'm glad you're enjoying learning about the FEF-3 and experiencing it in the virtual world through the model I made for...
Steve, the GTEL is fully-compatible with TS 64-bit. I've run the introductory scenario myself just now, in TS 64-bit, and it all worked fine...
It sounds like the locomotive starts with the reverser cutoff short enough that the cylinder admission valves are closed. To check this, put the...
I certainly agree that it would be great to have a big "Mountain" type for TS. Unfortunately, those diagrams above are of the kind they call...
By the way, I strongly recommend that everyone who gets Access Violation when trying to start TS2019, while it says it's "Updating Scenario...
This problem has been known about for at least two years. I spend quite a bit of time responding to people on the Steam forum who ask what to do...
Thanks very much for the kind words, I really appreciate them. I'm so glad when someone notices all the details in the model and understands how...
Why on earth would someone owning the existing one, made by someone else entirely, get a discount for a new one made by me???
Thanks Buynot! There could be some news during the dev stream tomorrow about plans for the future.
You can do a combination of whistle blasts or toots that don't correspond to either of the brake codes - the script is clever enough to...
That's not true for all Pro Series locos. All of mine can be used with the F4 HUD (the FEF-3 and Connie have specific variants with simplified...
How about if the developer himself chimes in ... Plenty of people care about the route, and besides, what's wrong with novelty? Or would you...
Thanks very much for the article Gary!
Everything works fine in 64-bit TS2019. Talking of views, UP119 comes with a wooden boxcar that has a special "passenger" view that places you...
Thanks for purchasing the Jupiter, and to Railfan722 for answering the question correctly. The Jupiter scenarios had to be set on modern(ish)-day...
The 5% licensing fee that has to go to the VMT is one of the reasons why I haven't done the 611 (much as I'd like to). Another is the high cost of...
Cheers Gary, thanks very much for the article :)
Errata: There are three career scenarios (not four).
See section 4.6 of the manual.
If you have the Union Pacific GTEL (introduced into TS2016 with the updated Sherman Hill route), I recommend you read section 8 "Advanced Brakes",...
A small patch (download size 74.3 MB) has been released for the Union Pacific No. 119. You might need to exit and restart the Steam client in...
