I think everyone here is trying to be helpful. If a map showing the UK TSC network doesn't include a number of freeware routes I think it's a good...
Nice try, it's a bug. I'm old enough to have commuted on those things, the sound inside the carriages is awful, it's not much better in the cab....
Rivet's TS1938 stock sound is still all kinds of wrong. Particularly in passenger compartments where turning 90 degrees reduces tunnel and track...
I'd be surprised if Greater Anglia were reluctant to allow a licence, it might just be that DTG weren't happy with the finances, which would be...
Yes, though Thomson Interactive, so technically a Third Party release but it's excellent news nonetheless.
Excellent news that we're getting a new EMU (Class 385) with a new route. A lovely run to Dunblane and Alloa with a working PIS system too. The...
There's also the Thames Haven branch to the new dock at Coryton. Containers and tanks to be hauled from there.
It's okay, I grew up in London and have supported Arsenal for 40 years so I do have a Premier League team to support. Monder - Yes, I can totally...
BTW, I'd do one of these for other notable UK TSW holes in Wales, Northern Scotland and the big gap west of Reading and East of St. Ives but I'm...
The map below shows East Anglia in the UK. Currently the only part on the map that's in TSW4 is that grey HS1 line that doesn't have any stops in...
If DTG were leaving TSW2 and 3 in a good condition, there wouldn't be the vitriol about TSW4. In isolation the TSW4 bundle is pretty good value....
[ATTACH] Possibly because I was talking about UK DLC releases? ATS and other third party developers have a valuable place but it's that list of...
UK Releases from DTG: Last new traction was the Class 700 in January 2022. Last new route was Huddersfield Line in October 2022. Nothing in 2023...
My question was triggered by the recent takeover of DTG which occurred after the core update project commenced and a personal conversation with a...
There will be many rail sim fans who will still have a preference for Train Simulator Classic. It may be because they prefer the variety and/or...
I've said elsewhere, core updates and fixes should be across the board regardless of whether you buy TSW4. Having come close to being bankrupt a...
I see the inclusion of the Editor as the reason that the two yearly product cycle has been interrupted. In time we'll have a few of the routes we...
When they started the bit about ECML on screen it said "Route Extension" on-screen and I'm pretty sure someone described it using those words.
So why is Peterborough to Doncaster referred to on screen as a "Route Extension"?
Yes, I agree, GEML doesn't have any long tunnels meaning more trackside assets, it's a suburban sprawl until rows of houses and businesses give...
There's red dust/particulate in that tunnel. Red Dust was a famous film about post-apartheid South Africa. Could the new country be down on the...
Oh that's easy, do what Beeching did and only survey branch line passenger figures between the peaks and on winter weekends.
If it's 90's ECMLs it would have to include the Class 91 or "Intercity 225" as us old railway people call it.
Yes, once passed Stowmarket it's all pretty generic (but nice) English Countryside. The complex bit is between London and Shenfield but no worse...
Maybe DTG Direct is a new live webcam of the office so we can watch them create masterpieces in real time.
Leaving aside my preference for the black hole in AC Network South East land/East Anglia, I feel it really is time for a substantial, lengthy...
We had to wait 7 years for GEML in TSC and it remains the only product they've made for East Anglia in 17 years of building routes for the sim and...
I like the Career Mode idea too maybe as part of the scenarios and/or training pack with the Roster Mode as an option in the timetable side of the...
Having a mix of 90s and 745 would be interesting though that was a very small transition period with the 745s entering service on the 24th January...
I've got all of the merges and also the excellent South East London workshop route too but I wasn't specially thinking of those, I was just...
One thing that may favour your suggestion is that the southern half of the route would need more rolling stock to look realistic. For the modern...
It would be great to have this route from London Bridge and Victoria. My local bias means I'd prefer a London commuter route north of the river...
Anything in East Anglia (I'll include C2C,GEML,Anglia Rural, WAML) would be brilliant and it's interesting to see the Ipswich to Norwich section...
I think the random events should also be adjustable with maximum difficulty/disruption level settings at increasing incrementals like; 1. Off 2....
New features? *Roster Mode in the Timetable as I mentioned before, you take over from another driver if it's mid-journey and involves a walk from...
No numbers there DTG Matt . Interesting, very interesting. ;)
When you've grown up travelling on trains in Europe, 40mph is crawling. It depends what gives you a buzz I guess but I like to feel like I'm...
Sounds like those big black TSW holes in the East of England and Wales are remaining for another year. After 6 years of TSW there's only been...
I'm surprised someone leapt on Matt being up until 3 as some sign that the new release will be TSW3.
Damn, I forgot the Amex. Yes, they're a very good side and an impressively-run club. Yes, Old Trafford (formerly known as "The Theatre of Dreams"...
Got to be ECML South because; 1. The original Eastern Region is a big black TSW hole at the moment. North of the Humber we already have the...
If it's not ECML south then everyone at DTG will be having a good old laugh at us at the moment. "and the UK route is.........Tyne & Wear Metro"...
The beauty of ECML South is that owners of other routes will benefit greatly because the following stock can be layered in; Class 43 (HST) Class...
Two words - "Bakerloo" and "Line".
I do wonder whether we're in for a shock, like Kings Cross to York. Obviously with HST/700/387 layers plus an IET. Flying Scotsman Pack with an...
Maybe it was set in the future, Summer 2020.
Yeah, not usually a fan of US stuff but I love metro/suburban systems so was really excited about LIRR, unfortunately it is like a ghost town.
Mentioned about 8 pages ago. It was from the detective work of the "Train Sim Guy" on You Tube, though he thinks the route extension is the LIRR....
So there's a clue that the headline act will be an extension of an existing route. I wonder what the inspiration for the new software's code name...
AP have been involved with some of the trains but yes there's more functionality with them, though the lack of variety at this stage does make a...
Separate names with a comma.
