That explains it! Sorry, I meant driving at a fair speed, not tilting on a corner!
I have the default 323, no mods/patches, and constantly get these visible DVD alerts (but no sound alert ever). I have tried isolating the DVD...
There’s a fair number of YouTube videos showing 323s starting up or passing, but here’s one (from a carriage) with sound from stop to stop....
That’s the one that gets me too, makes me think a brake has. Even BBC applied when speeding along. Is it actually a brake sound though, or some...
Having just got this route in the Steam Winter Sale, I’m looking into getting the 323 sound patch. I guess we’re no further towards DTG...
I saw it today. I guess that although they only guarantee one week now, they still have previous weeks queued up in case of slow loading.
My, doesn’t that look snazzy! Keep asking myself if I can hold off getting this until the next sale…. Does it come in good ol’ BR Blue and Grey? :)
Plus we all speak Canadian here too!
Great find, Torf - what more could you want?
Didn’t realise you drove them, Peter. Getting used to them on the BCC route has been a bit of a struggle. The brakes seem very sharp indeed: is...
There’s one or two Cab Ride YouTubers who add interesting annotations in a chyron: speed changes and historical tidbits. I also just came across...
There’s also an interesting thread over on the Dark Side (!), where a driver gave critiques of simmers’ driving:...
Yes, I’d completely overlooked the fact that the scenario was associated with the weather pack, thinking it was a Class 319 scenario. If I’d...
Partly, as well, we have so much choice and can readily flit between class and route, between rural and urban, at a whim. In real life we’d be...
I have a query about the 323 - unlike other trains, it seems unable to coast an at even speed when you power off - it immediately starts losing...
Which begs the obvious question as to why TOCs don't correct them - after all, late trains based on these timetables impact on performance ratings...
Yes, that is a good one, Peter. I think that was one of my first times using TS Tools to stick in an AP train too!
Will do that with the 323 ones. I had got in the habit of saving before a station to avoid the issue of the mysterious X appearing on the task...
I just reopened an already started scenario on the Birmingham Cross City, and like I've seen on other occasions, on rejoining an already started...
Well, just ten minutes after I sent the images to AP, I received a reply pointing out that it didn't look like I had installed the latest version...
Thanks, Craigie, for this. I have checked, and all these files are present and correct. I have been asked by AP to supply some screenshots and...
Is that the new one out? Haven't seen that yet. How do you know it's straight to 8? The golden rule is always drive according to your...
The bottom three look fine. I notice the pixelation more on the first image, but it could well be to do with the sim/monitor resolution: looking...
Keep an eye on your speed! Welcome to the forum.
One thing I would like to have a stab at, time permitting, is the signalling simulator Sim Sig: https://www.simsig.co.uk/ There are some free...
If you think how much it would cost to build a model railway: even a locomotive now is a couple of hundred or so!
Yes, they are fine for seeing the route, signalling, etc, but I always wish you could see the handling of the main controls too.
That would be much appreciated. Many can be seduced by point chasing, and trying to hit some crazy timetables in some of the scenarios!
Hi there, it would certainly be interesting to see even a short video of a driver even on a short route explaining what (s)he is doing, to learn...
It’s been interesting to see videos by YouTuber ‘DadRail’, where he has had a go at simulators such as TSW, Open BVE and ‘TS Classic’....
Presumably all the gamey graphics stuff can be turned off? I had a look at a TSW video last night, and all these things appearing would drive me...
You’ll find a lot here: http://ftp.sasolchevron.com/page/Glossary A lot of these have standard meanings: D - driving M - motor O - open C -...
I’m tempted to try Open BVE sometine
These are my settings. Don't know if that's optimal or not. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Just seems bizarre that the page doesn't mention reskins: Scenario Requirements Please note that these items are only required if you would like...
I’ll have to check. Last time I altered the setting was for the AP Sky and Weather pack, iirc.
The plot thickens! I've just been trying another AP Class 319 scenario on the same route, and lo and behold a complete AP 387 passes! [ATTACH]...
I know one or two other YouTubers have commentary/text for their cab rides, but this was an interesting addition to the library I just came...
Came across this one: [MEDIA]

I was sorely tempted by a pop up ad on the Steam client for Lawnmower Simulator. But the price of £20+ plus the short routes was a deal breaker...
I only started with TS2021 last December. I have recollection of seeing a brief video (ad?) of a previous sim about a decade previously and wasn’t...
I remember those Thunderbirds stories from when I was younger - everything was supposed to be nuclear powered now!
I had read - and have seen myself - that when you clear it, you don’t get a full repopulation of your lists. I have had to quit TS and reopen to...
Trainsimplayer, it almost sounds like you had a ‘bad experience’ with some pro train! I’m inclined to agree to just untick and uninstall, as you...
I don’t need to cap mine at 40, as it very rarely goes above that :)
Looking great! It’ll be starring on Saint Alan’s Twitch in no time :)
It’s something I’ve seen before on a number of occasions. It always seems to be a multiple unit, and in this case I guess I was determined to find...
No problem, thanks for helping anyway. I’ll email the Great Purveyor himself and see if AP can help!
Yes, did it again just now - this screenshots were from the latest try just now. You're right, clearing the cach did nothing.
