What "lessons learned" have you taken from doing other German routes and applied to this one?
Can we get a quick list of differences between playing this route on TSW2 vs. TSW1? In other words, changes to the route, rolling stock, engines,...
I would like TSW2 to include a fictional yard/train museum that has sections and track that can house every engine and all the rolling stock in...
I think they explained later that they don’t have time to get everything converted right when the new game launches, but eventually everything...
When playing Sim City and GTA San Andreas, I realized I enjoyed the trains more than anything else. So I got MSTS and, later, Trainz. I don’t...
The weird endpoints on NEC and their choice of LIRR had me convinced at the time that they had the ability and the intentions to extend or join...
Oooh!! I'm a technical writer! I hope they hire me.
There is a massive difference between being "lazy" and making a business decision that it's not worth the required hours. You can disagree with...
There is also the claim that the editor is too complicated for most people. I kind of understand that one from a support perspective. If they are...
Service/timetable mode is a big difference-maker in terms of replayability compared to a stand-alone authored scenario. To me, that’s what makes...
We don’t know exactly that this will not happen eventually. What we know is that they aren’t promising anything that isn’t ready to go. They...
Calling something an extension probably limits the number of people who purchase it to some percentage of the original owners. But if they happen...
A lot of great material (and outstanding bug fixes) are apparently being abandoned. Recent DLC should be migrated (not just in a preserved...
Normally I would agree with that premise. What's the point of moving content over if it's not better? However, I have had TSW crash and dump to...
At least now that they have instructed us to take “no” as a real answer for a lot of these questions there is the possibility that the future...
Disk space is by far the cheapest computing resource. The optimistic part of me wonders if there might be gradual migration of some content from...
The price is right. But I'm not excited about either of the new routes. It will have been more than a year between (new) U.S. routes by the time...
I guess we won't need this thread anymore....
One point suggests that this will be a substantial announcement of... something. They have cancelled two days of streams and scheduled Matt and...
I have learned about a bunch of things, such as PZB, signalling and certain control keys, from Matt's streams instead of from the in-game tutorial...
But you pay for a house and you hire a solicitor. You have every right to complain. The editor is (we think) free.
Well it would need something to pull and push since the existing rolling stock can move on its own.
I really don't see the appeal of being the "other guy" for an entire service or scenario. Checking tickets has to be the most boring job on the...
What routes might be in TSW 2021? Based on last year's package, we may have already seen the contents of this year's summer release. TSW 2020...
That's kind of how I felt. I preordered it because I'm interested in North American content. When I looked at Google maps I was skeptical that...
Every time this thread makes it to the top of the page I think someone is complaining about Downton Abbey.
I would be thrilled to see the New Haven line, especially the Danbury branch because I grew up taking that line all the time. One thing I really...
I play on PC, so I hadn't thought of that factor. But I really don't understand the strong desire for cab sway at all. It wouldn't mean much to...
How about a companion mobile app that shows the HUD, schedule, map and all stuff a real driver would have, such as train length and weight?
My "Other" requests would be a key to give up a service manually as well as the ability to teleport or time travel without leaving service mode.
That site actually just says the people who work at Rivet now made those routes when they worked at Dovetail. The Rivet rep on the last stream...
Looks like that are doing it, but for TS instead of TSW. https://twitter.com/railsimulator/status/1189150728725630977
Route: Peninsula Corridor Train: F40PH-2CAT and UP GP-38-2 [ATTACH]
Route: Northeast Corridor Train: ACS-64[ATTACH]
I got the same email. Looks like a mistake.
As I mentioned in the first post, the substitution feature must already be aware of all these factors or it wouldn't work at all. I'm simply...
My understanding of the substitution feature is that each loco or train car has certain variables set (length, type of power, what it carries,...
I hope they change this policy. Or perhaps add an option to allow us to control substitution within the interface.
Except they have the uncooked route, so they would just use that. It doesn't seem like that would be the specific technical limitation (if there...
It would add to the immersion, realism and overall experience. It would be consistent with the style of open-world play that TSW represents when...
It wouldn't be too crazy to allow the CSX cars to substitute on the Peninsula Corridor too. Trains seem to get really mixed up in real life.
I am curious if it's a technical limitation or a marketing strategy that is keeping them from connecting them. If it is purely technical, I...
I think it looks really cool, but I chose option 2 because I don't want another NEC/LIRR situation. I would like them to solve whatever issues...
I don’t automatically buy all German content, but I would be interested in this if it is actually connected to RSN. The NEC/LIRR situation is...
Facts supported by actual information??!? Start your own thread! This is for people like us who have no idea what we are talking about!
It would not actually be difficult to load two routes. The game engine only loads what's right around you. In fact, in order to make this work, it...
Yeah, when I read the post on Facebook that’s what I thought too. This one’s a lot more clear.
The Baltimore Metro has also stood in for the Washington Metro in a number of movies because it's easier to get filming permits. This suggests...
An ongoing real-time live multiplayer service mode could be interesting. Having to deal with other trains driven by real people could add a lot of...
Maybe it’s some sort of procedural generation of services and scenarios that can whip up something random on demand. (Guess I should be saving...
