Is this after you've saved and then restored? I've had a couple of instances at Ebbsfleet (both directions), where after restoring a previously...
That sounds very plausible, thanks. My only quibble would be that the HUD usually reacts to the TVM limit, so if it's showing say 130 as you're...
Trivial point, really, but when you enter (from the St Pancras end) the high speed section of the tunnel and the TVM goes to 225, the HUD shows...
Playing this (Shopping Shuttle) scenario, I saved the game after I'd changed ends at Ebbsfleet, but when I restored it, the train would only power...
The manual (on Steam, at least) has been updated.
Someone's put a lot of effort into modelling the St Pancras frontage - kudos, but a shame that it's never visible. It reminds me of medieval...
Almost 30 years ago, I was travelling on the DART (the electrified rapid transit system serving the Dublin area), when the guard came on to...
In UK, started 18:01, finished 18:14, 3.1GB. So 31Mb download on my 50+Mb DSL line (but the missus was watching YouTube at the same time :love:)
My download started at 18:01 GMT/UTC
Mine was 1.2GB, though I don't claim to have 'everything' I believe I have all the assets addressed by the patch. The HST in FGW is running...
The patch has also made it possible to save on the LGV and restart with TVM still operational.
My favourite UK TS1 route is WCML(N) Preston-Glasgow, nearly 200 miles and fairly well detailed. HS2 would be very tedious, as it's mostly in...
I'm not sure the levels of tech are very different. The difference is between creating a 2D representation of the earth's surface that looks...
I expect we'd all like that tallboy7648, but Aachen to Frankfurt is over 250km and takes almost 2 hours to travel IRL. No doubt it could be done,...
I seem to recall (this is going back into the mists of time, so I've probably got many details wrong) Microsoft announced they were going to do...
As I'm sure many know, there's a mod that unlocks the (developed, but hidden, by DTG) FGW liveries for GWE.
Nice Ouigo paint job!
That ballast doesn't look the right colour to me. :D
Definitely, but it can be quite tricky with Windows. I had problems a few evenings ago with bad stuttering, frame rates dropping into the red...
I can't spot it, but there is a brief glimpse of Stratford International. The background scenery (trees etc) looks quite prototypical, I wonder...
No screenshots of St Pancras, I wonder if DTG will model the entire station (which would be quite ambitious) or just the Javelin platforms.
For those not familiar, 1 pound (force) is around 4½ Newtons, or 10kN = 1 (long) ton. I remember this as a Newton being approximately the weight...
That's a good rule of thumb, but on some routes there's substantial variation in platform lengths. As you say, just like in real life, there's no...
Will there be 'catch up' opportunities (such as YouTube) for those unable to "Watch Live on the Steam Store!"?
That's a fairly common occurrence on Aachen-Cologne ICE runs. At the first red light you halt beside a freight waiting to depart towards Aachen....
High-speed rail has a sweet spot of a few hundred miles, shorter than that and it doesn't offer significant time savings, longer than that and it...
It's very old, try Psalms 55:21 in the KJV: "The words of his mouth were smoother than butter". Now, back to TrainSimming ...
All the DTG manuals (and I agree more are needed) can be downloaded here:...
Many modern locos have a 'keyboard' on the dash, e.g. the TGV (though it's alphabetic rather than QWERTY/AZERTY).
Inside a tunnel, camera 2/3 (if working) would show an unrealistic shot of the tunnel interior from outside (if you see what I mean). The...
I save very frequently (because my driving's so bad :)) and apart from a glitch on Köln-Aachen (which is now fixed), the only problem I've...
Of course we'd be prepared to pay, but how much is the interesting question. Not £20, for sure.
I've seen quite a few 'sheds' (Class 66) in France, in EWS red paint. I don't know if they ever get as far south as Marseille, though. I assume...
I think the problem is that the HUD adjusts the 'speed limit' indication as soon as the warning TVM message appears, rather than from the next...
Marseille, like most of the big stations in TSW, is quite challenging for graphics cards (and probably even more so for consoles). Adding more...
I've seen 200kph speed indications as well. You generally need a touch of air brake (~4 bar) to slow down at the required rate - the electric...
If you reduce speed to 10km below the limit before the slope starts, then you'll speed up but (probably) stay below the limit. But if you wait...
Also ( if I understood Matt's explanation correctly), if you're driving on 'cruise control' using the 'speed selector', then the throttle setting...
I've noticed that as soon as you get the warning of a speed reduction ahead (the numbers displayed in 'diamonds'), the HUD shows you as overspeed...
I think that's a fair assessment by hightower, though I haven't noticed any particularly bad stuttering. I'm going to submit a ticket for the...
München is unplayable for me (on 4k Ultra settings) ~10fps, but running with the -DX12 option bumps that up to over 30fps. There's a lot of...
Egg 'mayo', cheese and tomato, and some type of meat (probably corned beef). All accompanied by "a liquid that was almost, but not quite,...
Yes, my 'achievements' all appeared the following day. I was surprised because in the first LGV stream (I don't think it was the one yesterday),...
"Core" is the three routes that come with the base game, so everybody owns them - that's why Munich-Augsburg doesn't count. But I did a timetable...
As far as DTG is concerned (and it's their trainset :)), it's a synonym for customers - the people that have paid money for their products, and...
I suspect the answer is that the engines (lead and trail) aren't configured correctly. It's tricky to do and not well documented and I don't...
wxtr7 makes a good point, but I think there are ways round that issue. The game 'knows' where you're starting and all your way points, which are...
I was playing around with DX11/12 last night, MSB was a bit better* on DX11 - slightly lower framerate but less stuttering, while HMA was...
I've a feeling that passengers on the platforms in HMA wear different attire in winter than in summer.
FWIW, I've just updated to 457.51 and the -DX12 option is still present. I never say 'never', but I find it hard to imagine how a driver install...
