It does make sense, as explained above. The cost of developing assets has to be amortized across the number of routes that use those assets. DTG...
The mountains in SPG and Clinchfield actually reduce the graphics load, because the draw distance is quite short.
Here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1o7zeIn-Nshe7_bzqkd7hQg2QrV0G9xNvBevPoxTunA8/edit#gid=0 (note that Banking Comms should ONLY be...
It's a notably better tutorial than usual.
All right, I think I see the problems here. The Gen Field switch must be OFF in every cab except yours. Turning on any of those three switches...
As I understand it, the FSE alternates routes, one train running via Bayreuth and the next via Marktredwitz.
I have noticed this too. A shame, because I think YN2 looks better.
It shouldn't have the reverser handle inserted at all. The rear MU cabs should all be in shutdown state.
A hundred-car train isn't going to be held by dynamics alone on a steep downhill.
The Interregio-Express trains were (are) Verkehrsrot. White is just for IC and ICE. The FSE was run by DBFV, perhaps uniquely, but there you are....
AI trains definitely use a very simplified physics model.
The driver only needs radio control of the lead loco in the DPU. It’s a unit; that is, all the rear locos are hardwired together just like the...
My bad; it's the RRO (Hagen-Wuppertal) line which sees multiple ICE services, including ICE-T's (on ICE 31 and 91)
Yes, but those two lines could equally well read "DB Fernverkehr Hof." The FSE was, oddly, funded by DB FV, not by any of the Regios. It seems to...
Quite so. Up until the management change in the mid-50s their mantra was "burn what you haul." But afterwards they couldn't dieselize fast...
But it's a start.
Because, until DTG figure out how to make US cab-signal systems work correctly, any new routes will be in the same boat as the old ones.
IIRC, the Ruhr-Sieg line used to have (or still has) ICE-Ts on it, which would imply the installation of GNT.
Correct: but the very fact of the 612 sets this route before 2014. The route was electrified at that time and the DMUs taken off it.

But not until DTG have sorted US in-cab signaling. It's currently a mess.
Actually it's more complicated than that. The Sachsen-Franken-Express is an Interregio-Express, but uniquely is not funded by any SPNV, but by DB...
Running the 20thCL just to White Plains would be rather a waste. Sort of like the Class 52 on West Somerset.
Yet is happy to make money selling add-ons based off DTG's product.
Or, and I'll just keep banging this drum, do Austria, which isn't very different at all from Germany in terms of signage, signals and safety...
It seems that it is implemented differently on ECW and BML. The former regulates the throttle, only, and is good for holding speed on the level...
As with all US passenger routes except SF-SJ, the completely broken safety systems mean this one lurks untouched on my drive, and will continue to...
Why would trains belonging to Regio Südost have Bahnland Bayern stickers? That's a marketing campaign used by the regional TOCs...
I do think that N&W is a leading candidate, since DTG already have a licensing deal with NS, and there are some preserved N&W locos in existence....
This is going to sound crazy, but it really happens: it was true with my (then) hotrod gaming computer out of the box, and I couldn't understand...
There's a mod for that: http://www.trainsim.cz/?mod=article&showid=2447
Well, I'm pretty sure it won't release until early 2022. DTG route releases are generally spaced at two-month intervals (summer bundles being the...
Maik: "My involvement in the audio work means recording brand new sounds from a real DB 612, then editing it, before implementing the best mix...
Sounds like you don't have the rear engines set up correctly. Still, you aren't going to crest that grade above about 17-18 mph.
The "0" key teleports you back to the driver's seat
Yes, it should and in RL does. However, TSW does not currently model it (they have temporized somewhat by speeding up the brake charging time to...
I venture this route will show as much of Grand Central's concourse as Bakerloo does of Waterloo's. Sorry, folks, but all you're getting is the...
Norfolk & Western No. 611. The N&W J-class were the last and arguably the greatest of the steam express locos: [IMG]
The former is correct: controlling the rear loco(s) via radio signals. Although DTG have confused things a bit by using the same in-game...
Okay, there is quite a lot of confusion on here regarding TWO timetable updates. The FIRST is a free rework/fix of the existing route's...
The PCS (Pneumatic Control Switch) is a safety device which opens the air system if airflow exceeds a certain rate; the assumption is that you...
I've said for some time that DTG could have a nice little side earner selling liveries.
And I'm not sure I'd count Canada (sorry, Canucks, but from a railroading perspective things are pretty much identical with your annoying great...
Yeah, that horsie is going to be a challenge!
Query: what was the first TS route released - by any developer - not set in the Big Three countries?
As I understood Matt to say in a stream some time back, there is something about one of the online stores which requires loco DLC to be "housed"...
There is alternative approach, if you want to speed brake charging by running higher engine RPM (although I'm not sure if the game actually models...
I'm not sure how you popped the Pneumatic Control Switch, but it has dumped the brake pipe and you have to recharge all over again.
Just a thought, Sharon- do you have any mods for BML installed? I have had this happen on other routes, where an update suddenly conflicted with...
Correct. The Railpool is a 182.2, just like the DB/Railion locos; the 185.5 is rigged for international use and so has multiple current support...
Separate names with a comma.
