Oh yeah, the individual traction motor cut out was a bit of a pain to implement since it has to work together with everything else, like the...
Now that TSW4 is in early access and people can drive the Vectron I thought I'd make a thread detailing some of the features I implemented and to...
The screen setup simulated on the Vectron is prototypical, but to the specific Railpool Vectron variant. It is not a common setup (I don't know of...
Add another check list item: Drive the Vectron in multi traction (Vectron + Vectron at the head of the formation), for example on Vorarlbergbahn....
Maybe DTG can make South Main Line (Södra Stambanan): Stockholm - Norrköping or Malmö - Hässleholm with Snälltåget [IMG] Who am I kidding... :D
Flixtrain has Vectrons in Germany as well, right?
I did the physics and a lot of simulation scripting of the loco. chirimu did all the screens (which imo is the best screen simulation in the game...
There is no test cycle implemented on the Vectron. It would require like 2-3 new pages with complex logic (especially the debug screen that shows...
The countries listed on the outside of the RP Vectron (in the game) is (as far as I know) corresponding to the real world variant that it was...
Maybe I'm being a killjoy, but I wouldn't treat a country flag in the network settings screen as indicating a future route/timetable. chirimu...
The down arrow simply indicates which softkey you need to press to move down between the rows on the screen. If you press it once, an up arrow...
I'd love more single track routes, it creates very interesting traffic, like passing loops with trains waiting for you to pass (or you waiting for...
One looks like 10 am, the other looks like 8 in the evening. I definitely don't agree that the TSW2 lighting looks better, even if DRA was one of...
Depending on the locomotive in question there's a few things that could be relevant to gameplay inside the machine room. The brake mode selector...
Maybe. I don't know.
To me it makes perfect sense that the patches are releasing later to TSW3 than to TSW4. The patches will require Q/A and beta testing on both...
Series S is gen 9 but has the same amount of RAM as the PS4 :D "Oof"
I don't disagree. I'd love if every locomotive came with an accessible machine room. I just tried to give my "educated guess" on why DTG doesn't...
That is definitely a dream of mine, but nothing I'm actively working on at the moment. I'd love to make a Rc with fully simulated ATC (which would...
There is not ;) That would destroy the point of not making it in the first place (development time and impacted performance). I can't speak for...
One day maybe :) With the public editor being released the probability changed from zero to non-zero at least :D
Multisystem (15 kV AC, 25 kV AC, 1.5 kV DC and 3 kV DC) electric. I don't know how much I can say but there's definitely a lot of complexity...
I was told by another beta tester that the bell is placed right below the cab, compared to on the opposite end of the locomotive as is the case on...
Oh another Swede :D. The Rc definitely holds a special place in my heart. For those that don't know, it can brag about being the first series...
Seems like you need to have both games installed to transfer. Train Sim World 4 FAQ : Dovetail Support (freshdesk.com)
I don't see how it can compete with NEC in terms of service variety, if it's at the same time expected to be realistic. NEC has way more traffic...
I mean you stated "with anything". That's what I responded to.
That's not really true. Plenty of modern AC locomotives allow you to pull 100% from a stop on dry rails. I even have video evidence of this fact...
It isn't. I think I made a thread 2 years ago comparing it against the real thing. Don't remember what thread though.
"Shift + R" or "Shift + F" (both do the same thing).
Yes. There are no magnets that automatically open/close the main circuit breaker. At least as far as I am aware. Some ETCS lines *may*...
If by "fully functioning" you mean of similar standard to other freight locomotives that have LZB simulated in the game, then yes, I think that is...
I think that was just Matt making a conscious or subconscious choice to use the mouse instead of the keyboard. The Vectron has keyboard bindings...
Regarding the neutral sections: I will attempt to explain how this would work IRL (rather than divulging any details about the in-game Vectron...
I don't think this is correct. It should have the same substitution settings as the other German freight locomotives in the game (excluding the...
1. I think there are 2. The one on the Germany-Austria border and one closer to Bludenz. 2. The route only uses PZB as per reality. 3. From what...
Because it takes time and costs money? :D You can think DTG are cynical, I won't argue with you for/against that, but anytime they go back and...
I would love to see Marias Pass in TSW. It was one of my favourite routes in MSTS. However, if you want to make it justice I think you need to...
I haven't really paid too much attention to this issue (TSW2 updates) but from my understanding the TSW2 "updates" were bug fixes. These are not...
Why would TSW5 be "in the works" when TSW4 hasn't even released?
Just in case there was any confusion about this. The "65 Kn = 100 %" has nothing to do with the maximum tractive effort or the tractive effort...
I didn't take your comment as criticism, don't worry :) (although I certainly welcome criticism, only way to improve!) I just wanted to give some...
The tutorial instructions are most likely incorrect here (I didn't make the tutorial nor have I played it recently so I don't remember the details...
I tried to implement as many of the safety features and brake continuity functionality as possible on the Class 158. Very many of the circuit...
I think Matt has touched on this previously and if I recall correctly the issue was that it makes testing a nightmare. You want the timetable to...
The ICE3 is older than you think ;) The first variant was introduced in 1999, only 10 years after the BR401 (1989). This surprised me when I...
If you haven't started braking before passing the Vr0, the operating procedure IRL is to immediately go into Schnellbremsung (emergency position...
The BR110 has not been changed in this patch.
I haven't had time to watch through all of your video but I since I did the Simugraph (physics) for the Class 158 I thought I'd touch on some of...
It's an old version of the Class 158 that is not functioning (well at least). I guess it was included by mistake.
