Tbh, I'm not sure. If it is, I'll retract/replace the image for something more comparable/accurate. But ummmm... the current screenshots I'm...
Sadly the more likely scenario tbh
I dunno if it will be the first, but the S-Stock/Met line would lend itself quite nicely to TSW. But for a first route, I do think it will be...
Meanwhile in Rivetland... [IMG]
Absolutely. Even if you notice something is low poly, the fact it takes you time to notice (particularly when the scene is likely to be moving)...
Yup. For arguments sake, I think it's justified to say a) Some of the current third-parties are decent (either from what I've experienced or...
True. But if the argument was that tools have to be accessible on all platforms... then that is a fools dream. PC is the only platform that can...
Exactly. As usual always on the money. Now if we're making this thread third-party centric (and reasons why I no longer trust Rivet) [IMG]...
False. There are even tools now in Unreal Engine to encourage open world environments or even 1:1 planetary creations
Case in point... take a look at Hmmsim (Unreal Engine 4) and see just how great these environments can be. DTG need new artistic co-ordination...
I will beat this out till the day I die. Unreal Engine is not the problem here. If anything, it's the most malleable and capable engine available...
So what next, to achieve full authenticity we're going to ban female gamers from using manual firing modes? Whoever knew pixels on a screen would...
I think we can all agree that we only want what is best for the sim. Some people may be already satisfied, and I'm honestly glad for them! But...
Last 8F service I tried, my train basically shot up into space. We don't need SpaceX... apparently we need to bring back British Rail xD
I know you're not referring to DTG specifically here, but you have to admit... it's a rather poor analogy to give to the rather (seemingly and...
:( I know people will look at the above and either consider that a rant or a spot-on speech. Regardless, I recognize many frustrations (mostly...
Very interesting in the sheer variety of services Okish in overall traffic (can feel somewhat barren sometimes) Poor in bugs (random spads) and...
I think downward spiral is a bit of a hyperbole... there have even been some interesting U-Turns from DTG. And there are several aspects about...
Tbh, I'd rather they did it and save myself quite a few gigabytes of data, rather than have DTG continuously bloat my hardrive because they can't...
Loving the Jubilee so far, but the Stanier... I've consistently had 3 derailments with **Light** braking (known bug). Like why DTG? Why why why...
Running the Jubilee on Brighton Mainline... I guess blowbacks are not simulated.
Locomotives look good. But after looking at the 8F stream, the scenery is so much yikes.
Might be an unpopular opinion, but I feel like this wouldn't be an issue if DTG invested in non-drivable 3D models/ai traffic. And there's an...
You should, they are surprisingly telling, and often correlate to my own experiences. I've purchased the first three rivet releases. BR 204 -...
Luzern well received? Steam reviews put it at 45%. In fact, with the exception of the Arosa expansion (which was basically new liveries and a...
Please no more rivet UK routes.
Stream was alot more impressive than past footage. Nice work DTG. My points for improvement for the future... The Obvious - Exhaust Colour based...
Highly highly doubt it. It would be a bit late and DTG have given no indication they have even started on a Country Class, which they would have...
We already have it confirmed that steam does interact with the environment. Invisible walls only apply to player entities.
Agree on seeing more footage, but if you watch the video, there are more previews of the particles at various angles, which looks rather different...
[IMG] I watched the preview for the sound Q&A (Judging from above, I'm glad Matt got to be a fireman). I could be tripping (dunno if the...
Yh potentially. I don't think since GWE, there hasn't been many DTG routes without an accomodating locomotive DLC (TGV might be the exception)
I doubt there being a big summer release tbh. Just pure speculation from me... Late Summer : Perhaps a steam related locomotive...
tbh, it looks ok. Yes it falls under the bracket of everything being somewhat clinical, but there are some impressions of weathering. To get...
Indeed, although in fairness... they seem to slowly be learning. TSW, core engineering issues appear to bite back sooner rather than later. But...
I disagree, I don't think route merging has really moved as much of an inch at DTG. We know some of the UK and DE routes are based off the same...
Edit : After reading the first paragraph of the roadmap, Matt confirmed they are still working on the particles. So apologies for my incessant...
Forgot to add, in the engine shed, locos will accumulate a sort of steam afro above them :D [IMG]
Coming from the latest previews shown about 10 minutes ago. I'm still not convinced. Route itself still looks lovely though! [IMG] Here you can...
In no order.... - Dead environments (mostly in the form of rail traffic). Making iconic terminus's for stations like Darlington, Manchester,...
Bakerloo timetable ;_;
Not so much of a worry... Thing is, I do want to buy more TSW content. I want more innovation and more engaging content. There have been past...
I think it only emphasizes the point that steam/exhaust is particuarly complex, and also underlines that a really sufficient simulation would have...
Fair point actually. Didn't take that into consideration. I suppose we'll find out :D
FPS will most certainly be lower due to the newer motion blur technique. The route itself shouldn't be as demanding as something like Brighton...
Before you comment... yes I am aware that it is an unreleased DLC that is a work-in-progress. However with what appears to be "close-to-final"...
Yh the track-laying was... interesting :D The game does have some interesting merits, but needs to be baked in the oven a bit longer. I will...
I purchased at Christmas, and refunded after an hour. No dedicated servers was a huge deal-breaker for something marketed as an online game.
And as we say (with a helpful dosage of train-related puns)... thread de-railed. Hopefully Nat can get "back on-board" in her new division.
Who's we? Pretty sure my timeline is one long list of critical shots at DTGs style and I haven't been censored once. London Midland is...
