I'm a software dev myself and can tell you that not every task is "groundbreaking". Some tasks don't require a lot of intelligence to finish but...

Once you start viewing each TSW release as a new major version of the same software, it starts to make more sense. With each major version, DTG...

No, I'm not. There is an Allersberg-Express which, as of 2020, has been renamed to S5: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allersberg-Express. But I...

While there is not an option for German and US without UK, you can just buy the US/German version on launch day (sadly not before) and get SEHS,...

Do you remember the hassle they had when switching a minor Unreal Engine version? Another major version means that they would have to completely...

In other words: the previous TSW2 routes with LZB in the real world existed before LZB was equipped there. They were upgraded to 200kph but LZB...

I have just driven on SEHS (TSW2 obviously) and the blueish light on entering tunnels is present there too. The speed is lower and the brightness...

I guess one problem of DTG is that they are still developing the core features of a train sim and have to sell content to fund its ongoing...

As I understand the articles, to get the best value out of the offer, you should not preorder if you already own the items. For me, I will buy the...

They have done it because it was a move to fix other lighting issues (do bright tunnels/night being one). As they have explained, it is not really...

One of the issues with a train sim is also speed. In open-world games like, for example, Witcher 3 (not on UE4 but with Red Engine), the fastest...

I guess you mean lighting and not lightning, right? The latter happens with thunderstorms, the first refers to the practice of setting lights in a...

If looping is in timetable (it sounds like it is) then that means the dispatcher is finally able to do it dynamically without bespoke settings....

Most likely it means exactly that. In a single second class ICE 1 passenger car, you can easily fit more than 100 people. The train has more than...

I've watched the stream and to illustrate the tunnel entry problem, I have created a clip of the stream:...

I like this announcement. This means they have the licence for that class. Chances are, this class will come to TSW 2 Brighton Main Line as well.

This particular rolling stock could be used correctly between Nuremberg and Hof, which is still only Diesel-powered.

I like those very much. Much more than old, heritage routes. The thrill to keep a tight schedule, with the pressure to make the riding to the...

I personally like the pure-modern approach to Germany. It will take too long as it is to get the full or almost the full roster of rolling stock...

I've got happy news: that doesn't need a layer as it already happens in Nahverkehr Dresden. I just didn't notice it before because those AI only...

It could have to do with the special setup in the UK. The rolling stock is owned by rolling stock companies (not the operators), the liveries (aka...

I have looked up the further route to Nuremberg. Possible sections for TSW2: Chemnitz - Reichenbach (70 km), Reichenbach - Hof (75 km), Hof -...

In that case, it would be very interesting to hear what those other issues are. You don't have by chance the link to the specific stream in which...

That was correct but is no longer based on my information[0]. That IRE (via Bayreuth) was ended in 2014 and replaced with a local train offer...

I like this write-up very well. The route has a length similar to Brighton Main Line with 80 kilometres. One bittersweet info: the route must play...

I used the data from Wikipedia in Germany, where it states something about 60 kilometres. But you are correct. In that case Colchester would be an...

That's indeed annoying that not all speed restrictions in UK routes are announced via trackside signals. This means I have to use the HUD to know...

Based on Brighton Main Line with 37 miles length, a section up to Witham would be reasonable (38 miles something).

What does OHLE stand for?

I'd like this very much. But I am wondering about the licensing issues, because the Thameslink, Southern and Gatwick Express franchises belong to...

In fact, TSW is dynamic. There is no scripted order of trains. But in most cases the trains get their paths locked in way ahead. This leads to the...

The main holdup for more traffic on Bakerloo is dynamic platform assignment. In rush hour, the first train ends on platform 1 and the second on...

That isn't quite correct. Zusi is working because it is a professional company which produces a simulator that is used by real railway companies...

So far there is not even a manual, because the route is not even planned for TSW2.

The system used by Star Citizen makes a lot of sense. It is a multi-stage approach: Players report bugs They need to be reproduced by community,...

True, it would slow down. But in custom scenarios we don't have timetables anyway. Plus, if it is an option for me to choose, I could do it...

Is there any chance for custom scenarios to always apply latest possible dispatch? That way it would be possible for AI trains to leave stations...

Sure. In TS you could first try out your skills and once you know it, you could go the way to make the necessary paperwork for creating a...

There don't seem to be that many professional game developer studios interested in working as a 3rd party for TSW2.

In this video the part between Limburg Süd and Montabaur is missing. The complete video of the same journey can be found here (15min longer):...

One problem: the ICEs via Halle don't stop in Lutherstadt Wittenberg but in Bitterfeld. The ICEs via Leipzig stop indeed at Wittenberg but not at...

They have trains sitting around in Düren in timetable mode. But these are full models without any schedule for them. In Bakerloo line there are...

The PIS of the S-Bahn München look best so far. I'd hope that the new PIS system dynamically chooses the correct set of textures for a particular...

Do I get this right? - You have the 112 but not with correct headlights for that loco? - The dostos are not correct? - the Sbahn viaduct is wrong?...

The point is that there are an increasing number of people (like me) who only have TSW2 and bought these routes and locos for the same price as...

Plus, they could provide a livery with S-Bahn Köln.

Actually, there is some limited service on the line even now. In the south, you have the local transport from Nordhausen traveling up to Ilfeld...

For my taste, there should far more scenarios that also use layers, etc. Driving the x-teenth identical service becomes boring if nothing ever...

If those things cannot be done in the scenario planner, then find ways for motivated people from the community to create scenarios with the full...
