Well, at least it can't be claimed that this sim is going to the dogs!
What? This myth still persists?
I just noticed something yesterday while driving one of the Hauptstrecke Hamburg-Leubeck sessions during which it seemed that the driving...
Oh, never mind--not really worth replying.
"Juicy" sound??????
I'm pleased to see that "user manuals and guides" have made it to the roadmap. I'll be even more pleased when they leave the roadmap and arrive...
I've already liked this request, but I've decided to also "bump" it (if that's the correct term), especially in regard to creating switching...
I've decided to set up this manual as a TSW2 guide on Steam. It should be published soon. The guide is now available on Steam under TSW 2. The...
Magari!!! [I wish!]
Having received some much appreciated compliments on my BR 182 manual, I've decided to take on the DB BR 112.1 engine, again as featured in the...
Train Simulator (a.k.a. Railworks) has included a scenario editor for many years and I very much doubt that DTG has suffered financially from its...
Evidently, DTG does not think that users' manuals are important to anyone anymore. Just speaking for myself, I find them extremely important....
"Some things", yes, but certainly not all! I rather doubt that the procedure provided in the manual you referenced would suffice to get the...
Since, once again, DTG has failed to provide a user's manual, I've started to make some of my own, beginning with setup instructions for the BR...
Who cares what color the automobiles are? How about the t-r-a-i-n-s??? After several tries, I haven't been able to get past the point in the...
Thanks!!!
I'll just give myself a dope slap! Thanks.
Okay, the screenshots look very good and I'm willing to try this, but cannot figure out how to install it (and, of course, how to go back to DTG's...
Happy to be agreed with, Matt, but what does "SPG" stand for?
Matt: it seems to me that in railroad simulation, as in railroading itself, sometimes tedium is the point. When I first played TS, more than...
Do not miss this one! You're driving an F7 and it's nerve racking -- at least until you get used to the method of loading coal -- which is much...
One of my musical favorites since I was first introduced to their music in Canada -- many years ago.
Thanks to CowBoyWolf and breblimator for your information! That's a DLC I'll be looking forward to.
After increasing magnification, I can see that this is a TSW loco that didn't make it into the preserved collection, but I still don't recognize...
Noxious fumes, perhaps? Or just air-borne dirt?
We really need to see a screenshot of this!?!
Finally, a post that adds a modicum of sense to this thread. One could just as well try to calculate the amount of money spent on any hobby or...
Could be ... if so, I'm still puzzled about its identity.
As Monty Python used to say: "And now for something completely different!"
I don't have a solution to offer, but I am wondering how you manage to get the activity instructions overlay to appear.
That's an impressive piece of work! I don't recognize that "GB Freight" engine that didn't make it into the preserved collection.
Encouraged by the excellent treatment of freight, especially in regard to switching work, I'm strongly in favor of your predictions.
Thanks for discussing this, but I'll save my $150 or so to buy more DLC.
While I can understand your point, I find "immersion" highly over-rated and much prefer imagination or even just ignoring the sim's limitations.
Yours is a fascinating discovery! I'm not sure about trying it just yet, but you may have opened a door to TSW developments that have yet to be...
What I find interesting (and all too often frustrating) is that sometimes switches change automatically, while at other times they have to be...
Which is why I prefer freight to passenger traffic and switching to through freight.
After initially being frustrated by discovering that brake releases only exist on one side of a freight car in the Clinchfield route, I further...
Doesn't interest me much, but I'm happy for those who love passenger trains.
So . . . why would one want to try to sit in the driver's seat while crouched, anyway?
What DTG suggested to Dave Badger is pretty much what I did on my third attempt to start this session and, as Dave notes, it did "trip the PCS" --...
As the McClure Shifter Part 1 (F7 version) session begins, the F7 you're driving hasn't been set up yet and is sitting on a 1.2% downgrade. Of...
I just completed the first scenario, "The Setup", on the Clinchfield RR, earning 21,235 points and a Gold Medal. The former, of course, I could...
Thanks for the reply, and I'll give that a try; but let me point out that while all trains have cabooses (or is that "cabeese"?), many of...
Lacking a users' manual, I'm puzzled about how to ride in the caboose. I'm guessing that doing so would first require identifying a train that...
Could you provide a specific example of this? I've never encountered it and am curious.
By "in front of", do you mean beyond? In other words, is it necessary to pass the red signal to reach the stop marker?
It's interesting that only one of this thread's complainers mentions contacting the dispatcher, and that one claims that, "3-4 yards isn't enough...
Thanks! I'll give that a try!
This service, which features the SD-40 engine, involves assembling a long coal train over a considerable distance on steep slopes. The "tutorial"...
