But GT46PAC doesnt that make the situation I suggested, the availability of assets, even more of a block? On TS people have developed routes...
Abhishek Adhikari Indian routes have been mentioned in the past and it’s likely there would be a good amount of interest n it just from India but...
MCGermanyFan i don’t agree with the statement ‘These surveys are not really representative because there is only a very small sample size’....
Whatever location is chosen I’m sure that the license fee that Disney would demand (if they would agree) would ensure that this would be the most...
John Murphy lighten up? I hadn’t taken your post literally to suggest they used the old N64 naming scheme but rather that DLC built with 64 bit as...
SamYeager270 rather I think it is you who seems to be confused. I certainly do not believe that it will be the exact same set of tools. Look at my...
John Murphy i think you may be right. Ultimately some routes or scenarios are going to be so detailed and have such a large memory footprint that...
Anthony Pecoraro fair enough. Who and when, and if (hopefully) it’s someone from DTG what’s their objection to stating the same thing on this,...
Anthony Pecoraro isn’t the arguement that if they are working to make them as good and user friendly as possible they aren’t the same tools as the...
Anthony Pecoraro I guess that’s excellent news that you are confirming that we’re all going to have access to the same tools as the developers....
SamYeager270 if you are correct that DTG won’t share the proprietary code with third party developers (even licensed and with an NDA in place)...
1. Good to see an earlier date than I had speculated 2. Not much more insight into 64 bit but hopefully that follows 3. A good choice of new...
On proposals I think DTG should publish some guidelines about what a realistic route might be. Even some of the well documented proposals are so...
Knud Berggreen no update, but then that’s rather DTG’s modus operandi with game developments. Last year’s TS2018 came fairly late in the year, in...
SamYeager270 on the Scenario/Route Editor is that what third parties will use to create content like new locos and routes? Genuine question. I...
I mentioned the DLR on another thread today. Yes, it is an interesting network but how would we reconcile the fact that it’s effectively fully...
Anthony Pecoraro ’the bug fixes may take a long time’ That may be true. What I think is important is whether the bugs are isolated to the DLC ~...
MCGermanyFan why are you trying to close down another thread? ProfCreeptonius wasn’t suggesting that any or all of these wouldn’t be done. He...
270 stations, 250 route miles much of the overground portions in densely built up areas, huge underground complexes in the central areas, large...
CresterYT I think has it right. If this was done separate lines make sense. It’s a problem of all mega-route proposals you have a large amount of...
Although they aren’t all by DTG I’d always thought Scotland was well represented. WCML, ECML, Edinburgh to Glasgow, Kyle line, Scottish East...
MarkL well from my experience you’re going to be disappointed with most flight simulators in the way they represent crashes, at least the...
MarkL i don’t agree with the comment ‘There simply isn’t any sense of danger so half the immersion is gone’. The game is intended to be...
Anthony Pecoraro ok, that’s reasonable. But so often information comes from Discord, or ‘it was mentioned on a Devstream’ or ‘Matt said’. These...
Anthony Pecoraro ’they want to make them as good as possible’. A nice thought, but any evidence to that? DTG had suggested they were going to...
Shukal yes, DTG have said that a modified UE4 editor would be provided. However, that’s been a ‘promise’ out there for a while so it’s perhaps not...
CFDIEGO88 so what price do you think it should sell at - what do casual players think is reasonable? Personally I’m not a big fan of comparing...
Testtrak does exist (it’s used for the training scenarios). You won’t find it in Quickdrive but rather under Build. So you can use the editor...
NEC_Male_TC why don't you post something on the forum rather than just down voting those who bother to contribute? Do you think upvoting posts...
Lawjester how do editing tools break the cycle? Frankly unless you’re ITK I think that’s just an opinion like GT46PAC’s opposing view. Even if the...
Generally (as with many things in life) the base game price from DTG is usually something of a ‘bargain’compared with pieces of DLC. The base game...
UP_conductor79 and Dawidowmaker999 personally I don’t think that Digital Draftsman is trying to start a PC vs. console users war. Firstly, on his...
Doesn’t it seem like this route really needs 64 bit? Perhaps if DTG were aware of the QD issues either delaying it until 64 bit is available or...
MCGermanyFan that’s useful although ‘full content creation experience’ is a bit gobbledygook. It might have been easier to say ‘no editor...
Shukal I missed where DTG said that a big part of the audience are casual (I’d speculated it myself) but that’s interesting if they said that. I...
LeadCatcher ’and DLC will be unaffected’. Presumably they know that the methodology they are going to use is benign to DLC and have tested to...
JFH interesting, but isn’t ‘Unturned’ for the most part a free to play game, which is certainly different to TS?
Canis_Lupus certainly access to a Beta would be good but I wonder if the DTG delivery via Steam might get in the way of that?
TicklishPickleWickles you may need to be patient for a long while (perhaps years) even if this is built. Done completely it’s what around 50 miles...
Digital Draftsman I do wonder if buying a game, using it for a while and then almost discarding is perhaps a trend of contemporary gamers - and...
Anthony Pecoraro yes I could and I haven't. But I have done some reading around the UE4 engine and also posts on this forum by people who I think...
Anthony Pecoraro Perhaps the word ‘death’ is too emotive, and it’s certainly not one I’ve used. But how about the concept that TSW isn’t...
Anthony Pecoraro i can’t see where in the thread I or anyone else is saying that the Editor isn’t coming. When has always been the question, and...
Fabrizio520 i don’t agree with the comment about the 64 bit being to help only old and poorly performing PCs. The current 32 bit limitation is a...
One of the reasons that there aren’t features to cause accidents, derail etc. is that the train companies who DTG have to get licenses for to use...
Fabrizio520 I'm not sure 64 bit is a novelty. Providing that update would seem to be an attempt to give TS a few more years of commercial life....
solon you are right immersion is a really important factor. TSW was released in March 2017, so that’s around 18 months. There are three routes...
solon ‘I saw the display of the last one DLC of TS in Twitch. And having played TSW, I do not want to buy this DLC for TS. The graphics and the...
North London and Goblin
Lombra you are right it has to be Steam data. So, there’s no way of tracking console usage (other than DTG know how much they’ve sold)? Interesting.
