And there's the Gatwick Express as well
On the one hand, everything you say is correct; but on the other hand if its a fake its an insanely accurate fake. What hoaxer would put in the...
Fortunately for DTG, "safety systems" on US locos (not counting certain metro systems like the LIRR) boils down to an alerter. Not much to model....
Another interesting point, assuming it's true, is length: the Brighton Main Line is 50 miles long (on the Victoria branch), and besides splits in...
I would expect the Kawasaki doubles. There are very few of the old singles left in service, most of them as specialty cars (cafe, bicycle etc)
More speculation: each of these routes we can expect to get a DLC. On NEC it will almost certainly be the Acela. But what about the British and...
Well, layering in the 101 isn't nearly the same thing as making a whole ICE-T train.
Welcome to the Hotel Dovetail You can check out any time you like, But you can never leave.
The other two are Victoria - Brighton (including the Gatwick Express), and Riesa-Dresden for the German route
30 bucks for three routes is a very good deal. Even though there isn't a single really new loco in it. (The ACS 64 is basically the BR 182 with...
Incidentally, assuming this is genuine (or at least that Boston-Providence is included, which appears likely), then we can probably expect the...
The thing is, this sure has the feel of DTG pre-release blurbs. If it's a fake, it's a really skillful fake. I note that two of the three routes...
That's a Gatwick Express 387/2 on the left. Interesting. (An easy build job, since it's just a slight mod of the 375). The thing is, everything...
This was a much better movie: [IMG]
Mostly. Acc to the in-game calendar, it's 1975-76, although I would say it feels more like 1971-72. And they went to the trouble even of adding...
"So when we're looking at the locos we want to make for the routes, one of the things we really want to look at is, What adds variety? What adds...
Wouldn't the 182 in OBB colors be more appropriate?
If you are on PC, there's an unofficial way.
Sounds good. I'm looking forward to this, because the game-default coal looks like fine black gravel.
Livery Designer compatibility for Pr Col routes is/was supposed to be done to each PC route as Adam's team turned to it. But, as you may have...
I must say, while procedural generation avoids monotonous replication, the first version looked more 3D and less like a texture.
Layers provide timetable space for those German locos that already exist at the time the new route is built. Hence HMA's timetable includes 146...
No.
I think you mean the moire patterns. Increase your screen percentage, or consult the threads on engine.ini commands
Boston to Providence looks likely. About half an hour by express train (28 minutes on Acela), so a typical TSW distance, and includes the USA's...
That's all well and good, but as said above, the route and the rolling stock are built by entirely different people. Simpler scenery doesn't mean...
The issue here is that when a new loco is introduced, no then-existing route includes it in its timetable, necessarily; except of course for its...
The problem with wikis is that anyone can edit them, and whoever added those trains could just be - is likely to be - engaging in speculation. I...
You just have to construct the letters and numbers the old-fashioned way: [IMG] [IMG] [IMG]
NEC was an experiment in routebuilding and programming techniques that didn't pan out, so it's an orphan. It's like that one Betamax tape in a...
I think that's the key point. With HMA nobody really objected to recycling the SKA ICE3 with a green stripe, because the route did include the new...
You'd be surprised....
It shouldn't happen. When cars are decoupled from the locomotive, their brake pipe hoses are disconnected and immediately vent to atmosphere-...
Simply put, the game's recommended 2 mph is too fast. Keep it to 1.6
It's CG, not a photo, so unlikely to be a stock image.
Not a valid comparison. SPG was ported and upgraded, but they cannot do that with NEC. NEC was a dead end. NEC would have to be rebuilt from...
Known bug. Service should start with brakes applied but doesn't. Procedure (quickly!): Turn on cab light - use the controller button, you don't...
I take exception to the inclusion of "train painting" as an arcade-game feature for casuals. At least some of us regard Livery Designer and other...
Troll alert. Maybe this is a good argument for getting rid of casuals - especially the ones who don't even realize they've been thoroughly spanked.
Less glibly: this is a simulator, or at least is billed as one. Enthusiasts are the people it is for. Simulation implies accuracy. It's not an...
This is the sort of attitude which keeps Budweiser in business.
The thing is, for me a Zwansbremsung is no better than a SPAD because I refuse to accept such a screwup on my part- I'll restore from a save or...
Sam at least conveys the impression that he is there to address our concerns, sometimes even to relay them back to management. JD creates the...
SFJ is definitely a mixed route. In fact, personally I count it as a freight route since I only ever drive the UP services.
Well, viewed across the game offerings as a whole, or viewed through the narrow lens of UK content. To date there is not one single German...
I'm not quite sure which behaviour you're addressing here. While I concur that Sam is better at it, the stream is not this route's biggest problem.
Neither one, since what it amounts to is a statement of opinion. Whether the two "look exactly the same" or not is entirely subjective, which...
That certainly is valid, and goodness knows I have taken exception to various posts where users who are apparently unaware of business realities...
I'm not reading this situation quite that way. Sam is referring to the subject matter of the content- "if you don't like US freight, don't buy...
This is all correct. But on the other hand, the streams are intended for the more dedicated (or obsessive) part of the community- roughly us, the...
