Different colours for accelerating, decelerating and near constant speed is an excellent idea IMO. My eyesight is reasonably good yet I find it...
Downloading the German Starter Pack which is coming out at 33GB for me (now only ~26 left to go).
I'm also waiting for the starter packs to appear on Steam. Can't be far off now.
It would simply have been nice to get the game downloaded and ready to go at release time but I do take your point.
The Starter packs don't seem to be available for purchase yet on Steam, they don't even get a mention. Are they likely to appear on sale before...
Not sure if I have a problem with my installation as I simply haven't noticed this before now. I've just been looking for a 101 service starting...
Thanks I didn’t realise that could be done so easily. Some of the signature videos are amusing the first couple of times and then……….
I doubt you'll find any complaints from me up to now on this forum, but the profanity filter drives me up the wall almost every time I try to give...
In much the same way as the first “player” train that you add to the scenario. Go into edit for the scenario already created, add a service,...
I've just been struggling to get the Jubilee with 10 passenger coaches over 20mph on the run from Lime St to Runcorn. It completely ran out of...
Only UK routes for me, particularly NTP and TVL. I'd be delighted if the two could be connected together but that's a whole different thread.
Just been exploring some of these new paths and I’m having a great time. Thanks for doing this.
It would be really nice to have a throttle/brake lever with mechanical notches so you could actually feel when the power had been increased or...
i'm generally happy with my Raildriver although the delay with the alerter button can be a problem. One thing I would like is more audible...
I was certain the Leonardo would act as a keyboard (and mouse) out of the box so I chose it to keep things as simple as possible. More info here...
I was able to buy the yellow version of this 22mm button for around £6 but it doesn't seem to be available on Amazon at the moment and the...
It has turned out to be very easy to make the Arduino Leonardo emulate a keyboard and to turn external button presses into keyboard characters....
Thanks turtle_maximo thats very useful. I’m busy playing with an Arduino for the first time to emulate a keyboard and hoping to build a button box...
That’s a very impressive panel. Sorry for the questions but did you use an old USB Controller chip to connect up the buttons? And what do you...
In my experience the alarm button does cancel the warning in time, provided the driver responds reasonably quickly. On the trains where an...
Yes it does work but there’s a delay of around two seconds. I haven’t yet played around with the rail driver software as it isn’t needed for TSW...
I just decided to take the plunge and give TrackIR a try and I know it's also very useful for MSFS 2020. Unfortunately it's out of stock almost...
On the BML class 377 and 387 I've noticed when AWS is triggered and I hit the Raildriver 'Alert' button there is almost 2 sec delay before the...
Took two days to arrive, delivered by FedEx this morning. Calibration was very straightforward and have had a couple of runs with the 313 and...
Just had my first timetable run with the 313 on BML and so far so good but was surprised how few entries there are on the timetable. Maybe it’s...
I’ve just splashed out £285 which was £229 plus VAT and around £8 postage. This was from Keyboard Specialists (in the UK). I’ll report back when...
That looks good but there is no mention of VAT at the checkout so I suspect the final price will be considerably higher.
I was stuck a few times on different routes because I couldn’t get past the look up look down etc. After making a large number of exaggerated...
I agree it would be nice to take a continuous journey between the two routes but right now I’d settle for being able to get off a train in...
Many thanks for the replies. As you say the front 66 is certainly capable of pulling the train by itself so I think the backup idea makes sense.
I've just had a go at the ECW Vintage Railtour run which involves a class 66 at both the front and rear of the passenger coaches. Setting off as...
I’m a bit of a stick in the mud and prefer the UK routes above all else. I have NTP and TVL and would love to see them linked together...
I don’t suppose it has anything to do with Raildriver support? I guess not as that’s now apparently an option in the menus.
Solved the problem today. I had set all of the AI route templates (after selecting the actual starting point ) to be Darlington-Saltburn and...
I’ve set up a couple of AI passenger services, one class 47 and the other class 40, both travelling East to terminate on the coast beyond the...
I agree. Today I was flying around at the start of a TVL custom scenario checking that all my AI trains were running as expected and I watched...
Yes I travelled a lot on the 101s between Newcastle and Hexham in the early 60s and loved it when the leading car wasn’t 1st class and I could...
I managed to get hold of the heavy freight pack for around £6 a couple of months ago and as others have confirmed it will eventually be released...
I went off to check something in the Newhaven aggregate yard when my train started moving, gathering speed toward the hoppers. I thought at first...
Has anyone else tried running up and down the line with a free roam scenario? I made one with no AI trains just to explore the route and to get...
Thank you so much Pookeyhead that did the trick. I know, I should RTFM.
Apologies for digging up this thread but I've just installed this AP pack and under the Advanced drop down in the Scenario editor (as shown in the...
I’ve just purchased TS2021 to find out what I was missing having only played with TSW until now. I eventually managed to make a freeroam scenario...
I always receive an SMS whenever I log into my Paypal account but I found it a little odd that, for a recent purchase, a company I hadn't dealt...
Thanks everyone, I’ve only been playing with TS for a few hours since buying it this morning and that’s a wealth of information you’ve provided...
It’s early days and I’m still battling with the menus and the layout of the controls. TBH I don’t have much to compare it with just yet and any...
I’ve only tried Fife Circle and WCML South so far and both were well over 1 minute, maybe even more than 2mins. Computer Is reasonably fast with...
Thanks for that I’ll just be patient and have a cuppa before settling into the driving seat.
I’ve just added TS2021 on Steam after having dabbled with TSW2 since it came out and I’m surprised how long it is taking, after choosing a drive...
I’ve learned to do without the accelerometer in TSW2 because I had to, it simply isn’t readable. It’s a luxury to occasionally play the routes I...
