I think if JT did decide to follow the current trend of upgrading existing routes (as per their Met Line + SWEX) then, as we know, it presents a...
Hmmmmm... I think that seems a little bit conservative compared to some posts I found on RailUK Forums (one example below):...
There are some 165s working out of Bristol now as well. 166s are now also running on Exmouth/Exeter-Paignton, so route availability in TS now...
It'd need to be a pack from scratch. The Kuju Turbo is utterly atrocious by the standards we've seen in recent times. An EP would be putting...
I've always felt that irrespective of what some folks feel towards AP/upsell/prices/whatever, Richard's initial sound packs were what made me want...
It has been my overall favourite for a while. I enjoyed your video mate. Can't go wrong with a bit of head out the window view.
AP tend to mix it up a bit anyway, producing "big", highly anticipated releases, sandwiched in amongst coaching stock packs and wagons. The...
In fairness though, scenery is pretty important. If you want to drive HUD-less or just feel immersed, accuracy of scenery is incredibly important....
For different reasons though, to be fair. Most of the complaints about AP are about pricing and upsell tactics, rather than quality. When it comes...
It's quite interesting looking around at people's perceptions of good/bad, old characterful locos versus new "plastic", BR versus "foreign...
I think it has more to do with knowing their player base, than vision. At 38 I sometimes think I'm one of the older ones posting in this forum,...
It must do, yeah. Looking at BML (pretty much the only TSW route I've spent significant time on, because of the detail level and the fact it's a...
Yeah, I tend to agree. The argument has always been for realism/high quality in the routes the stock runs on. But then, and maybe it's just me...
I think the Turbo EP must seem a little more feasible now. The argument (from AP) against them was a lack of quality route to run them on, and I...
Don't leave us in suspence... What was in the bottle? :) But yeah, some of the route modelling is very good. I thought they did pretty well in...
I've always kept that in mind as well. I've got thousands of miles of virtual track, most of the stock available (for UK and Germany at least) so...
Have you found any stock in the sim that you think is a good replication of their real life counterparts? I think the arcade nature of career...
BVE in about 2009 started it off for me and I found it authentic and immersive at the time. Enjoyed it, but once the Armstrong Powerhouse...
Would that mean reading the manual though? :o
Did you also check in Steam under "Manage my DLC" and make sure the 801 was ticked? Mine didn't load properly the first time when I bought it last...
Which livery is that on? I bought it last night but have only used GWR Green so far, and F7/F8 works for the destinations on my installation for...
Shows how much I know - completely escaped me that stock is married to routes by the timetable system :D In respect to the original post I can't...
Would have completely missed this. This is actually what quite a lot of people wanted - full Kent runs. dEaD sImUlAtOr though :D I might just...
I'm unsure as to what the difference between TS's DLC model and TSW's DLC model is? TS's is no more or less ridiculous than TSW's, there's just...
Has scenarios for Chat Moss which makes for a juicy combo. I've been toying with the idea of getting that route and the 185 for a while so this is...
If you have the following: Train Simulator 2022 Metropolitan Line + S8 stock Then you'll really need to consult the manual and/or watch a couple...
The only content I've really been impressed by in TSW in Brighton Mainline, and to an extent East Coastway. In the BML there's at least a healthy...
Big bump for this one, for the benefit of anyone who has the requirements and is interested in the tube. Always been a big fan of the VDL project...
For accuracy in terms of HSTs as Peter says it depends on the time period. If you want the AP pack to run on it, the MTU pack gives you the more...
South Western Expressways to Reading from Just Trains is about 220 miles worth of actual track I believe, although I think the longest logical run...
Crikey. Who the heck was TSW2? :D
I've also got both TS20xx and TSW2 and I prefer the AP 66. I also like their HST enhancements as well (especially the ones with the basic...
I had that same issue at Lincoln and Newark actually. Having said that though, it's a lovely route and I've had some good stretches of 40-50fps...
I do have a thing for routes that have a certain grittiness to them (something that hasn't always been captured in TS until more recent times, by...
Nothing wrong with giving it a try. I had TSW on my PC last year and uninstalled it as it just wasn't for me. IMO what it gained from having...
I thought that was a more modern development, using the IETs for Bedwyn on more recent services since their introduction (same for Paddington to...
Indeed - that's the thing. Some of these products are 15-30 months in the making and involve multiple specialists working on different elements...
And while we're at it, we can hand out snacks :)
Handy app. One or two of them are 90-100 minutes long with shunt movements involved, which is not bad for 99p given how much care and attention...
Adding another vote for Virtual District Line - comes complete with highly functional stock and proper tutorials on stock usage, LUL regs versus...
And in this case of this route, you get a fair amount more track and scenario scope as well. I own TSW and for me it's in the league of "kinda...
I took a run on this last night on service 2N40 and I have to say it is yet another high quality route, as I suspected it would be. Another in the...
It has been the case since the 91 was released I believe. I'm sometimes using the F5 mini HUD with just the speedo and power/braking info and have...
Weardale is often reduced to a bit over 6 quid in sales and is a very good route, so it's a bargain in and of itself.
Haha, you can be honest with us all here Dunc - it's okay if you did have the odd "ripping your hair out" moment :D Sounds like good progress has...
A fun micro simulator for when you can't get to your gaming machine or have a few minutes to kill. Can be played in the browser or downloaded as...
The location we were shown in the SimRail video looked decent enough to me -- somewhat gritty and very "railwayish" with good looking OHLE in my...
Confirmed - I am interested :D
Agreed. It would be a bit too much for me, and if you have to save and come back the next day it's not really an operational simulation. I...
I had a look/listen to the stream when I had a little while. I think you grew into it rather well Dunc. Some terrific visual functionality on...
