If they are by GTrax why are they sold as High Iron? Is this another Alan Thomson/Boss Man Games situation where the same developers have used...

Quite a lot of US routes don't seem to offer any full end to end scenarios. Arizona Divide springs to mind as another example. I get that they are...

I have no idea how accurate either creator are, but I have thoroughly enjoyed content from both, and that's far more important than "accuracy" -...

It's a scenario pack with some extra locos included. Armstrong Powerhouse used to do it all the time when they were in the business of making...

You can certainly change the track type with TS tools. Used to be a tutorial on the site but I'm not sure if that is still available. It's a...

Aren't Ctrl D or Ctrl A the usual combos for isolating the vigilance devices?

Kansas is in Canada now? Was Abe Simpson right about Missour-a?

The Trent Valley route is the WCML, the Coventry-Birmingham-Wolverhampton section is the secondary route.

Does the console version include all of the editors and third party content you can add on the PC version of TSC?

The impression I got from your reply to Trevkiwi was that you were suggesting it may have been a scenario issue. Apologies if that was not the case.

Right, but it does show that it's more than just a single possibly faulty scenario affected.

No idea if this has anything whatsoever to do with it, but I did notice a typo here: Should be lights, but I don't know if that would cause a...

This is the thread I was referring to. There's some quite extensive investigative work gone into this:...

There's an extensive thread on the RW Free Forums that goes in to a lot of depth about the whys and wherefores of it, I'll link to it later when...

So what is it that you feel needs preserving about it, if it is still available?

Isn't the class 801 now bundled with the ECMLS: London -Peterborough add-on?

I've also used both of those sites in the past with no issues. You'll also sometimes find they have sales on some add ons outside of the usual...

Thanks for the detailed list Danny, a bit of poor word choice on my part, I meant Tehachapi was the last US freight route produced in house.

For starters with that one, Paddington station is in completely the wrong place.

All third party though I think. Don't think DTG have produced anything in house since Tehachapi.

It's always baffling to me how someone can spend the hours upon hours needed to create a route but then seemingly can't be bothered to spend a...

There was also just a sale on Train Sim content last week on Steam.

Do you also need to be a living human being, or is that optional?

Quick drives are something of a special case, in that there is a degree of randomness in what is spawned where. It is very difficult to test every...

I'm not sure any of those things are necessary for what is being discussed here. I posted this earlier in the thread: My thinking here (and as I...

To look at it from a programming point of view - and I admit my knowledge here is extremely rudimentary - would there be a possibility for the...

As I said, they are an annoyance. They do not, however, prevent successful completion of the scenario, so they can't be considered as a game...

Yes, unsignalled speed limit decreases are annoying, but they are hardly a game-breaking bug. At least when driving a scenario where this occurs,...

Does the Steam client also store account info/password details in plain text? I think this is something that would have been picked up long ago...

Could you elaborate on what the risk is here please? I understand that storing sensitive info in plain text is a no-no, but this is in a file on...

I believe they are raw shape files, pre-conversion to the .GeoPcDx and .Ban files TS uses. I suspect they are unnecessary (like the .cost, .tgt...

Do the "missing" routes actually have quick drive scenarios available? Not all do.

I don't think there's a great deal of politics involved in train simulation. I would have thought going straight to the source would be more...

Steam Sounds Supreme are currently offering 15% off the Victory Works 9F pack. Highly recommended!

Just a note that there are some bundles of UK locos - the "Big Four" Centenary collections - that may work out significantly cheaper than buying...

I understand this position, and I largely agree :) I think Victory Works now sell new products exclusively through Steam Sounds Supreme though....

I guess the equation viz publishing on Steam vs independently comes down to do the (assumed) increase in units sold exceed the lesser margin per...

I'm not sure where else you'd expect to see the route builder's names except in the credits/acknowledgements section? A lot of add-ons don't seem...

I'm not going to be terribly helpful I'm afraid, but the number on that power car appears correct (254025 being the set number as opposed to the...

I was mildly disappointed when they removed it several years ago, so I too am happy to have it back.

The main issue with huge route networks has a lot less to do with what the game can handle and a lot more to do with the sheer amount of time...

There seems to be a lot of doom and gloom regarding what seems to have been a fairly successful update. No doubt that represents a significant...

In fairness, they did wait two years this time!

High Iron Simulations were partnered with DTG in making the enhanced Feather River route, so that's why they are being discussed. I have no idea...

That seems like specious reasoning. But then again, maybe the bear patrol is effective after all. What's going on here that runs the risk of...

Has anyone heard anything about the Steam release of this route? I thought I saw a "coming soon" article 2-3 weeks ago which usually means release...

A. The page doesn't seem to have been updated in 4 years. B. It's a route uploaded to the website by a third party, not an in house production. C....

Bossman Games apparently have a new version of Duke of Gloucester under development.

Why on earth would you want them re-released in that case?
