No UK steam engine had air brakes. All vacuum.
You're gonna love this then- DRG was running cab cars with steam engines back in the 30s.....
The basic problem behind trying to model any Amtrak diesel is that they don’t really run, anywhere, more than a couple if times a day. The few...
It goes beyond that though; any substitution option will also spawn on AI trains, and it was getting to the point that there were almost as many...
I find it interesting that with the GEVOs GE abandoned its traditional control desk and adopted an EMD-style control stand layout, even the...
I can’t see the C44-9W being a serious candidate, since it would be effectively identical to the AC4400 except for very small physics difference
There was nothing “cut out”, because the TSW route is a completely different product from the TS route, built from the ground up. (Also set in a...
You cant talk about British steam without Thomas At least, not if you’ve ever had kids
OMG! UNPLAYABLE!!!!!!!!!
Overall looks very good, and running long heavy trains over th 3% South Fork should be fun. Very minor ticks: Traffic on the British side of the...
The issues with the "stock" boil down to a) the AC4400's ride height, which was corrected; b) its reversed truck, which is sloppy and annoying,...
But TSW was not made to replace TSC, but to complement it. TSC is still there, it hasn't vanished into "Nolongersupportedland" like TSW1/2020
Although TSW does not at present model coupler failure, you can still experience that standing wave effect if you drive rough, especially on...
AudioQualityLevel does nothing in the engine.ini file; it needs to be in the GameUserSettings.ini
Alas, the 32-channel limit is an unfortunate aspect of Unreal 4, so it applies to all platforms.
That would seriously anger those with large collections of TSW2 DLC.
The forthcoming 420 represents the units that were completely overhauled in 2014-16 and would be all wrong on a vintage route
Train Sim Redemption?
Or "A Hard Day's Night" for a nighttime scenario with complications.
Would require new Dostos; the existing 3rd-gens aren't right for the IC2.
Kind of surprised they missed out "Ticket to Ride" and "Day Tripper."
It's a good bet that there will be Dostos, because there's hardly a route anywhere in Germany where Dostos don't run. But at least make them new...
It was quite deliberate and a nice touch, reflecting a repaint where the old logo still vaguely shows through. Actually took rather a bit of work,...
Yes, but they aren't really "scenarios"
I'm not so sure about that: Cane Creek is from a scenery perspective an absolutely beautiful route. In particular, Skyhook nailed the high desert...
The recent Tees Valley update included the vintage monochrome CRT PIS system: and it is, true to the period, an aggregated departure board, giving...
And not running yourself out of air by setting and releasing the auto brake too often
Ask the Windows marketing team at Microsoft.
That may have been a slip, indicating a planned loco DLC, since those typically come with three scenarios.
No, but Bingen-Koblenz is quite doable.
Don't see how you could even drive a Dash-7 or later GE LHF.
Were any of them still in all-blue by '89?
Not in the 2020s. LHF running was a tradition with both Southern and Norfolk & Western, but it gradually dropped away, along with the high-nose...
Hmmmm- VR is based in Wuppertal, whereas TSG is based in Berlin.
Hmmm. That has been patched. Have you updated recently?
Erm, the 101, G6 and 420 in TSW were/are being developed by Train Sim Germany, not Virtual Railroads
Acceleration: yep, that's the fun of trying to use a glorified freight locomotive for commuter service. IRL it can be permitted for short times to...
The "loss" (actually, invisibility) of medals was an unintended consequence of the change of Class 101 consists from incorrect 3-car to correct...
You mean they are still displaying 3000-series Clinchfield numbers?
It struck me that the discussion was more about preventing bugs going forward, not how, when or whether existing bugs might be fixed.
Agreed. DTG need to get what they have sorted before they add more complexity. Steam and the 1950s era already present plenty of new challenges.
For similar reasons, having nothing whatsoever to do with me, all the criteria for route selection demand that the next German route be...
Simply this: on the Tees Valley line, in 1989, would 101s have been wearing Regional Rail livery?
Having anything screen-shottable comes pretty late in the dev process. It's a good bet that right now this "German route" is just a bunch of grey...
There was an ongoing flood of requests for the Brighton main line, and eventually they built it.
One tactic beloved of litigators is the "discovery dump:' if the other party has made a discovery request, you can of course try to fight it, but...
But not in Railfreight grey, and layers don't get reskinned.
I think we discussed this over and over some time ago and concluded that there is no current loco in TSW that would be accurate for the WCML in...
Just as a guess, but a vaguely-informed guess: DTG released the 612 with Chemnitz, meaning they had to learn to model tilting tech. Now that...
But at least the ambient sound of all those people and all that traffic should be there: it's an integral part of the Manhattan atmosphere. The...
