It automatically opens when coupled, but you can manually open and close it. I was mid-way through a service and I had some time to kill so I was...
I can't seem to close the c0ck on the train brake air hose after I've opened it? Can anyone else?
Community driven sim markets differ from many other markets, and this is something that the recent management at DTG have misunderstood. There's a...
The real question is can you multi the Class 31 with the Class 37? Seeing as they are both Blue Star, it would be cool to have some variety in the...
Below are screenshots from the new Microsoft Flight Sim. Imagine this level of detail for the distant scenery and weather in TSW: [IMG] [IMG]
Because DTG didn't create Train Simulator. It was developed as Rail Simulator by Kuju in 2007 and was released with the various developer tools...
We know from the Flight Sim World saga that they're not interested in 3rd parties creating content outside of DTG's tightly controlled bubble....
If you're interested in a bit more detail you can read the manual for the real thing here:...
There's also the issue of the carbody design which makes maintenance more difficult. With a hood unit like a GP38-2, you can lift off a hood...
It looks brilliant; You've really captured the model railroad effect perfectly. Thanks for making the template available to the community too!
It's been an on going saga for a couple of years. We were told in 2017 that the Editor would be released in 2017, it wasn't. Then in 2018 were...
Even these days train drivers are 95% male and the in the 1980s that percentage was higher. So representing the railway as it is today would only...
That's usually because the route builder was making mistakes rather than the HUD creating errors, it's the age old 'garbage in garbage out' issue....
It seems you're right, they're basically gutted of all their original equipment. They're what in the UK we call 'Body Snatchers' as they look...
As someone who's dealt with parts supply and maintenance on the railway I can see why they'd get rid of them. They won't have the reliability of...
The issue with that is that most companies won't permit DTG a license to represent their brand in that way, despite the fact they let their own...
Thank you for at least addressing the question, even if there's nothing more you can say. :)
It's been about a year since the planned public beta test of the Editor was supposed to occur before being moved to 'the new year.' Will we be...
Presumably that then brings its own issues, as if new content is running a different version of some module it may not work with previous modules....
From playing TSW I've learned that the AI dispatcher isn't very robust and can easily be confused and broken. This will always prevent more...
That assumes most people are not buying TVL because they don't want it, rather than because they cannot afford it. The likelyhood is that many...
You could say the same with locomotive numbers, as some of the locomotive numbers that appear in the services are incorrect for the model/livery...
As you're here Matt. Why are so few liveries included with loco DLCs? The Class 31 could wear BR blue, Rf Grey and Sector livery, all appropriate...
It's only more useful on TVL in the context of substituting one-for-one with 40, 45 and 47 services on NTP. If it was supplied with the...
I completely agree. It would also make sense to do it for NTP from a business point of view as NTP is far more popular than TVL. We know that NTP...
That is why I started my post with 'If I was to speculate...' ;) Consoles affecting PC development is not an assumption, it's just something...
If I was to speculate I'd say that 31 must be memory hungry and by running it on NTP, which is also memory hungry, the limit for acceptable memory...
Whatever you did Steve has fixed the issue. So thank you for that! :)
DTG have zero interest in feedback. I'll tell you how I know. I've provided a lot of feedback on this forum, some of it quite detailed and...
We're nearly three years post release of TSW and TS2020 still has four or five times as many players as TSW, the same as when TSW was released....
There's no point in DTG posting Studio Updates as the community are only interested in the Editor, which has purportedly been scrapped. So it...
I'm not buying this if it's not available on NTP. It's bad enough that we can't create our own scenarios to permit the use of our rollingstock...
Once I understood that there would be no public version of the Editor I basically gave up on TSW, which is one of the reasons I stopped...
Basically you're aiming to avoid wheelslip and keep the amps within the permitted range. The power application will depend on the railhead...
If you can't see the issue with missing flashing yellows, then that's fine. If they serve no purpose and have no impact on train operations, one...
If a guide was created it would be more of a bug list than a guide. The purpose of TSW is to simulate the reality of driving a train in greater...
I'd be much more inclined to create a guide for GWE if it wasn't broken and it actually reflected the infomation I have on the real route. There's...
It's mainly for identifying the speed limits and signals on the route, so you can sit there with a cup of tea not having to worry about driving....
The Class 47 pack comes with NSE Mk2 Coaches which have a maximum permitted speed of 100mph, so the maximum permitted speed for a Class 47 and...
I have access to the track diagrams for the route but I can't share them as the copyright belongs to the company that produced them. What I can...
I guess you could call it the 'Train Sim Developer's Rumour Network'. Like any area of business, rumours float around about what's going on. I do...
Do you think DTG would have abandoned Rapid Transit, leaving it in a broken state, if they intented to create future DLC for it? If anything,...
If DTG don't have the resources to test that many services, perhaps they should reduce the quantity of services to something more managable....
This suggests they are updating the base game and thus all the DLC needs updating to suit. If I was guessing I'd say it's the patch which includes...
I made a similar point, in a post which received 21 upvotes, before MSB was released:...
Very funny! ;)
Derail Valley is a great game. The developers are great at listening to feedback and keeping everyone up to date with the frequent new builds. I...
Even if it's not officially cancelled, it's at least in what's known in the business as 'development hell'.
DTG in April 2017: Two years later...
DTG in September 2018: Six months later...
