Certainly. If that is how they did the survey, Siemens own testing facilities will allow DTG to get all recordings they need (I do recall the...
In the cab rides I’ve seen, the down/hold/up control was mostly used.
Did any Kasten 10s have KWS? I know that a lot of Bügelfalten had it retro-fitted from '97 onwards but I don't know if any Kasten got it as well.
True. Could be a lovely idea for a new vintage route. Build a 3D model for the Kasten-Einheitseloks fitting the 110 and 140 (with minor...
You don’t. That’s been fixed a long time ago. The upgrade is worth it. Totally, absolutely with no doubt whatsoever.
That sounds fantastic, Matt! Very much looking forward to this and please, take your time with it :)
On PS5 in the cab car, the circle button doesn’t cancel SIFA at all. You have to use an external keyboard.
This. Try looking for a livery for the Br 101 and you get a whole bunch of liveries for the CLass 101 among other things. There really should be...
In regard to manufacturer licensing: We did see DTG getting a proper Siemens license for the Vectron if the inclusion of the Siemens markings on...
An absolutely essential loco missing in TSW. LFR really needs it for freight and the local services. Shouldn’t be that hard to do either. You’d...
Same on PS5. Save game is gone after the patch.
How fast was Matt going? An 80 restriction should be protected by a GPA, in which case the 1000Hz magnet isn’t necessarily active.
I wanted to try it with the Jubilee before I report back but since you already took care of that: I tried it on PFR with the 8F (you know me and...
Yes. I'm no expert here since Bavaria is absolutely not my forte but as I understand it, 103 245-7 ran a few scheduled services over the years but...
103 245-7 always had a bit of a special role. You can read up on her here (and also on Wikipedia). She was elected as a museum loco but remained...
Happy it all worked out! :)
You do need to keep the small ejector open (fully usually or at least at around 30%) to combat imperfect seals in the braking system. If you...
This is the crux of it, really. DTGs’ marketing/PR talk about supporting 3rd parties with steam is well and good but useless in my opinion. How do...
A 189 would certainly be nice. Lovely locos.
Same as above - could you record a video for us? The 103 has no problem on my end. Troubleshooting is a tad difficult with this lack of...
True. I’d see it similar to the German Br 101. Sure, the 101 on HRR is great but the real value comes from her layering onto almost all German...
Did you open the small/large ejector? I haven’t checked but I assume the WSR mk1s are vacuumed braked.
I can give some input on this from the German side. What I’m about to tell you is based on an article I read in which a fireman spoke about his...
Same as the lovely people above me. The thread is certainly not dead - neither in interest nor in new runs coming but currently life is keeping me...
OldVern, like Jpantera said, I often see a digital clock in a corner of the screen but I don’t know if that’s standard. If that fails, you could...
I reckon we need a 120 for the cab car to come. It won’t be a free update for the 101 DLC, obviously. They also won’t release it standalone...
Given your explanations, I wager it won’t account for much when I say that I’d love more vintage routes with F-units and early GPs and SDs -...
breblimator, welcome back, long time no see :D You’ll only need Niddertalbahn. While it’s not well advertised, when Vorarlberg was released, a...
Oh, that’s interesting. The last timetable was “only” around 320km of continuous running, I think. I’ll have to check that out. Thanks! Nice to...
Tell me about it. My love for the Einheitseloks is no secret and those old cabs are are a true nuisance. Only the facelifted E 10s have a HD cab,...
Pretty sure that’s an impossible signal aspect. Hp0+Sh1 implies you’re a shunting move while Vr0 implies you’re a train move. As such, what button...
solicitr, x-Wagen are another thing in Germany (unfortunately link to German Wikipedia only since there’s no English article). What they have to...
Pretty sure that I’m legally obliged to agree at this point! :D Same here. Quite busy right now so it’s difficult to find the time for a proper...
Thanks, noir. That’s a very good point I completely neglected: As the freight cars have quite realistic braking performance in TSW at this point,...
noir, excellent suggestion! I’d love all of these improvements.
As I said before:
Any restriction under 100km/h can trigger a 1000Hz monitoring and should be treated as such. If you encounter any speed reduction announcement...
You mean like on the 155? No, they don’t have such systems. The real 103s had an AFB-like system originally but that was disabled due to various...
In real life, no. The couplers in the front are only for emergency purposes. How TSW handles them, I don’t know. There should be a button in the...
Curious. Has the route changed much in the meantime? Not that DTG are strangers to bending time a bit - the 103 has an early 2000s cab on a 90s...
How so? I was under the impression that the route and timetable are both set in 2013 or thereabouts.
a.paice, those pictures are amazing! What a find :)
Depends on the area. The Ruhr area quickly amassed a significant number of them for the heavy ore and coal trains.
I’ll be honest - just being able to stand up and walk around my train, through the engine rooms (on those few locos that have them), through the...
Those were the test trains for the power cars. Makes sense that it doesn’t work in TSW out of the box since they had to be modified to couple to...
That's a rather vague description of what you mean but yes, she is widely known and still in use. [IMG] Source
Pretty sure the upcoming 111 is his work too based on the few sounds in the teaser.
The World does seem to be getting smaller, at least as far as 1st party releases go. Steam seems dead unless 3rd parties save it and the US is...
Very much looking forward to our next German vintage loco - the Br 111. That alone is reason enough for me to get this route :)
That 111 cab sure is looking lovely and inviting.
