As are the AP apologists. Pookeyhead, let's be honest there are only about a dozen of us who constantly post about AP, either to praise or...
I too prefer career scenarios. There's a sense of knowing how well you've mastered the 'test' set by the designer and a feeling of achievement...
If it comes up on every single thread maybe AP should take note? Or are they happy to be the Marmite of train simulation?
No, not reasonable at all, not when they try to force you to buy products that weren't part of the original deal. I dislike the way I'm stopped...
I don't know whether Jamie has replied privately, but I'd suggest you look carefully at the rules (first post). DTG seem to be quite strict about...
Be careful. There are two very different MML routes available. MML London-Bedford is only available on Steam. Most of the bundled 222 scenarios...
[IMG] Late autumn and the snow begins to settle on high ground as a BR Class 37 negotiates a crossing on the West Highland Extension route.
Welcome to the world of current AP business practices. I don't like it either. It means you can't fully use bug fixes unless you buy more product.
The Riviera Line has the semi-derelict lower end of the former Teign branch from Newton Abbott up to Heathfield. This is fully scenerised, but...
It's a lovely spring view, but I don't think you're allowed to enter photoshopped screenshots.
[IMG] It's a fine autumn evening as an SBB RABe 526 brings back commuters from Kreuzlingen on the Lake Constance: Schaffhausen – Kreuzlingen route.
[IMG] The broken clock on the medieval tower gives the wrong time, it is in fact 07:30 at Schaffhausen as a SBB RABe 526 starts off towards...
I suggest you start by buying just the standard TS2021 and see how you get on with it and if you like it start to buy a few more DLCs. The...
Well done tommydee. You don't often see that route and it's a great shot of it.
What's the Tehachapi Pass route like? Is it anywhere near finished yet?
I think you may have a problem getting this past the judges, as it's obviously showing the AP weather pack (nice though it is).
Maybe a little harsh? There are many reasons why people might want to judge but unexpected circumstances prevent them from doing so. Illness (we...
You have my vote as a substitute judge. It may be best to wait until this Friday, as (a) JGRudnick may turn up and (b) we are half-way through...
RSSLO have a different art style in their route modelling from DTG and they tend to be a bit more garish in the colours used. I also don't like...
It seems entirely legal and reasonable to me. RSSLO sell three separate routes that are of different parts of western Austria. They also - for...
I recommend the Konstanz-Villigen route (which is real) and the Im Köblitzer Bergland route (which is imaginary). Both on are on Steam and both...
[IMG] It's the end of a summer's day at the Alcan aluminium smelter at Fort William on the West Highland Extension. This shows the smelter house...

I wonder what upset him? Just Trains seem serious about their customers to me and their trading practices seem fair and reasonable.
Fastload helps, but it doesn't eliminate it, or at least it doesn't on my low-medium spec PC.
He revealed the TS2021 hack that eliminates tile load stutter. For that he was . . .
Craigie-C, nice shot. A strong coal theme. Well done.
That might be the reason, but combining two standalone routes doesn't disadvantage JT as you've still got to buy their two routes!
[IMG] A DB BR245 (RSSLO) heads a train of Falns wagons (Virtual Railroads) along the Wutachtalbahn route (DTG).
[IMG] This is from the Munich - Rosenheim route and despite the apparently rural view is in the centre of Munich. DTG managed to model the Isar...
[IMG] A DB BR245 heads a train of Falns wagons along the Wutachtalbahn: Lauchringen – Immendingen route. This is the section where the track...
There's no sign of a Leicester - Bedford link at present. Currently JT are working on the northern end with a Hope Valley extension from Sheffield...
[IMG] After the other mainly rural settings I think it's time for some urban chic. Here a DB BR294 works a train of coal filled Falns wagons along...
So you think I'm selfish because I will only pay what a product's worth to me, or do without if I think the price is too high? "Oh please Mr...
For sale, not in a sale.
I bought TSW on release. I was appalled at the lack of optimisation and terrible graphics as everything had to be set to min while still getting...
[IMG] A pair of OBB 1044s head an early morning train of Rnoos wagons filled with logs past the Karl Ritter von Ghega monument at Semmering...
TSW Advantages: Generally better lighting and close up visuals, if you like your trains looking shiny and new. Likely to still be supported by DTG...
[IMG] It's time for some continental hillside action! A pair of OBB 1116s pull a container train on the Semmeringbahn route.
dunkrez, I get that you love AP's products, but you seem to be saying that people should pay more for products than their value to them so you can...
Nick Y, be careful if you see recommendations like this. What we consider good varies from person to person. I have bought some AP products on...
[IMG] Class 37 on the West Highland Line Extension. Pools of light don't exist in the middle of nowhere, but I claim artistic license.
Buynot, Love your wining shot. How do you get the out of focus foreground?
[IMG] A pair of Class 37s pull a civil engineers train along the newly released and very good Fen Line.
[IMG] A picture that for me shows the isolation of the high Alps; just moonlight to light up the scene.
[IMG] An Re 460 electric loco on the Gotthardbahn - Erstfeld to Bellinzona route. Strangely it's pulling a train of Jersey barriers intended for...
Great idea! I was thinking of this, but you beat me to it.

I love coming back to this thread. There is something so bad about DTG's handling of this it's almost good! It's like they want to create a case...
