Not if there are manual switches. You must always check those yourself (as the tutorials and scenarios like to remind you of).
That's a serious flaw in the loco model. I was expecting more care for the trucks from Skyhook after Cane Creek.
Absolutely. A streamlined passenger train with E- or F-units would be a dream come true for me. Either that or one of the classic electrics (GG1...
The physics, realistic train lengths, and scenery are strong arguments for SMH. However, I’ll go with CRR for one simple reason: F7s - legendary...
If we’re gonna be like that, let’s do it properly. The handful of freight services on DRA with the wrong objective order can still be completed...
Is it though? Surely a train that's been running already (by AI in our case) wouldn't dump the air for a crew change.
I was afraid of that. I want to love this route but the more reports I’m reading, the more it seems like the ES44AC is just a mess overall: Wrong...
Wait, what? I didn’t watch the stream. Did they really build two new cars only to use one of them in a single service and the other one only in...
If DTG are feeling generous, it could come with a loco DLC. The more realistic (though still not realistic) option would be a gameplay pack along...
That's why I originally called for two timetables. Might seem excessive to some but this way, those like me could continue enjoying the 3-car sets...
I wasn't referring to DTG. I just tried to communicate that I don't think my opinion is any more "right" than that of others.
I feel like I should pop in here since I was one of the people complaining. Let me say this first though: I’m not trying to start a fight and all...
TS is far cheaper to produce content for.
If you scroll up a bit, that’s literally what Maik Goltz said in post #9. The hard truth is that the 204 will never be fixed (or rather re-done)....
Can confirm that Boston Sprinter was updated on PlayStation as well.
What’s even better is that they already used DoStos as well :D [ATTACH] Source
It isn’t modelled because the beta team member advising DTG on the 143 wasn’t aware of it until shortly before release (of the DRA 143 that is)....
For DB, it’s less about comfort. Constant accelerating followed by braking when you could also coast at a lower speed is obviously incredibly...
Every platform (gen 8, gen 9, Steam, Epic) suffers from the issue. Fixing this is on DTG’s long to-do list but unlikely to be tackled in the...
This is a Bü 2 signal. It announces a signal protecting a level crossing. Looks like an LZB-Blockkennzeichen (LZB block marker) to me. They...
Because DB was running on RSN in 2007 which is when the route is set.
I mean, who’s to say that your way of doing it isn’t done in real life as well by some? What is taught in an old training video and what is done...
That is a (somewhat) prototypical procedure. The only difference in the official way of doing this (according to an old DR training film available...
Some nitpicking to be done here. Neither the 143 nor the 112 use AFB. They use a much more rudimentary system compared to AFB. How you’re doing...
I have to admit I wasn’t entirely awake for the stream (long day at work) but what I’ve seen looked quite nice. It seems like Skyhook took the...
Exactly. Lowering the AFB lever below your current speed essentially makes the system think it’s speeding horribly. That’ll most likely result in...
Extremely hard and sudden braking. Not fun for either passengers nor couplings.
I wouldn’t say that. TSG did the Br 612 either while working on the G6 or at least while working on the Br 420. In fact, if you look at the last...
Yeah, you got me. My post was more a wish rather than a realistic guess. The setting being contemporary is probably a given. As you pointed out,...
Glad to hear that and good to know that our feedback on the TVL situation is being heard (and acted upon).
Well, Maik Goltz recently confirmed again that he’ll do the 218 as a TSG product some time after the 232, so it’s unlikely to be part of the next...
One other thing linked to this is the (negative) impact of Adam’s work. I know that TVL and the 3-car 101 may remain an isolated case but for me,...
Sorry for the bump, but I’ve come back here to deliver more praise :D I got my hands on SEHS in the last PlayStation sale and started looking...
I won’t comment on HSC until the preview stream. Other than that, very disappointed to read that the PS5 DLC limit is apparently still miles away...
This pretty much exclusively.
No problem, glad I could help :D
While stopped: Throttle at off (not min) AFB main switch to on (left-hand side under the desk or [CTRL]+[R]) Set AFB lever to desired speed...
Hey there, I'm just coming over here as a guest from the TSW forums to provide the wanted transcripts. Here you go, Craigie-C :) Sorry that it...
It might seem complex while it’s all new to you but I assure you that it’ll become second nature when you’ve done it a few times. All it boils...
XCDriver, check out this thread.
I remember Matt’s whole monologue about how stop markers had to be placed further back for American freight and how he had to instruct the team to...
Not sure if that’s really broken or working as intended. AFB is not usually used for freight trains in real life after all.
I just had a look at the new track rendering. Oh, dear. First the SMH grass (thankfully fixed already) and now this. Sorry to say this but maybe...
500 Hz and 2000 Hz being active goes hand in hand, obviously. If the 2000 Hz magnet is active next to the main signal, the 500 Hz magnet before...
Just in case anyone’s missed it, the preview questions thread is already live.
Let’s cover some basics to not repeat Cane Creek: Can you show a close-up of both trucks on the Gevo while stationary and while moving? Do the...
It is. If there are two white lights on besides a red one on a main signal, the 2000 Hz magnet is active and has to be overridden with Befehl 40...
I get your point. I’d be fine with any solution that keeps at least some 3-car services in the timetable. It’s the complete removal of the 3-car...
Well, if it’s more authentic this way, I’m not going to complain but I would have preferred DTG offering seperate timetables for 2- vs 3-car 101s...
Still one guy working on it. No public ETA right now.
Separate names with a comma.
