I suspect it's coming. DTG have all but admitted that the Acela will be the DLC for Boston, and that means they have or will have figured out how...
It's nice to see Norfolk Southern finally debut in TSW.
It's about bloody time we got a reasonably modern US freight engine. The AC4400s are all over 20 years old.
The gas turbine GTELs are/were relics, built in the 50s and all retired by 1970. Powerful, but gas-guzzlers. Only appropriate on a vintage route...
:o
Do you have DX12 enabled? Any Livery Manager reskin will crash DX12, guaranteed.
It is (or was) glaringly obvious to me, since up until the update I had the RRO 422s in the green VVRR livery- no mistaking those when they popped...
Not weird in the US, where reds can be absolute Stops, or conditional Stops.
If Glasgow Central were to have a realistic traffic volume, it would require a significant number of train models that don't exist in TSW....
If DTG did it, immediately the moaners would whinge about "too few services."
However, if the train gets too long then it makes reversing moves difficult or impossible, because of the distance required to clear switches...
I would actually find a shorter time more useful in some circumstances, when I really do want to relinquish control and not be stuck with it for a...
That was IIRC long ago, before LZB even existed except on a test basis. (Also, the 103 only did 200, it wasn't moving at ICE speeds).
Not schedule; budget. Every additional km of track and scenery, every additional station, every additional signal, costs £££. Doesn't matter...
I don't disagree. Part of the problem in designing a freight layer is that there isn't usually a RL timetable, and even when there is it's...
If I'm not mistaken, trains running over 160 km/h are required to have both LZB and AFB active; DB basically doesn't trust a human driver at those...
Hallejujah! But will running one of these >300 layer liveries crash the game? Or is the skin just compresse4d into a single .jpg before it loads?
Certainly I would like the option in freeroam to 'hijack' any train in the station, not be told "hands off"
One concrete flat block is much like another: far more egregious, to me, is recycling the same church model all over Germany, even though it's...
Freight has always got short shrift on German routes, even RSN. In fact, DTG only pays lip service to freight on all non-US routes.
Whereas what they should be doing is using the RL start and arrival times. NB: on German routes and possibly NEC, AI trains always drive at line...
Which "missing services" has DTG acknowledged?
If it was sold by DB in 1984, then it was never painted blue.
Info screen for the 363 is wrong. It says "12 cylinder Maybach GT06", but all Class 363s by definition have Caterpillar diesels, installed in the...
It's like GTA VI: It will get here when it gets here.
That doesn't make sense, at all. RBs and REs are operated by DB Regio using their own rolling stock in their own livery (except where the contract...
Which everyone does, by definition; SKA is bundled with the game itself.
Uh, really?
The one which seems to be generating the most comment is that since there are a large number of platform reds without a "dispatch beyond," the ACS...
I don't disagree. One reason Dresden (after it was truncated) is on my wait-for-the-sale list is because it comes with no rolling stock I don't...
That's not necessarily the case, since one of the marketing rationales behind Rush Hour is to attract new players - players who don't have a...
Yes, this is a problem with all routes which have been given the brown-trunk-winter-3d-trees upgrade (meaning Clinchfield and later). The...
At a guess, I would say that Riesa-Dresden still has some old DR signals installed. These like the DBB signals in the West descend from the first...
I'd much rather have the right train with the wrong paint, than the wrong train entirely. Especially since you have to look pretty closely to...
AFAIK, TSW does not model R, P and G brake modes. But I don't know which mode the simugraph modeling is perma-locked to. TSW certainly does not...
Unfortunately, scenarios require that you follow the preordained steps in clockwork order. There's one (I can't remember which now) where turning...
Yawn. It's just marketing, like Pepsi changing its label design every few years. Doesn't really matter.
This forum doesn't need self-appointed hall monitors. Nat & co can handle what needs handling
And if you read what I said, you would know that repainting layered rolling stock is impossible. You either get Munchen 423s, or no 423s at all.
Those aren't "new wagons" just livery swaps. No different than the AI spawning rolling stock in custom LD paint. Not since some months ago, when...
AIUI, the service layer for the Acela already exists in the route, which makes that DLC pretty inevitable. Also, as I've mentioned before, making...
Hell, I would love it if I could simply make them and share them with myself! As things stand, I have to make up the same logo from scratch for...
In general, locos only layer into routes released after they are, because the layers for them have to be built into the route. Therefore none of...
Also, Michael, most new computers come with a shedload of worthless bloatware loading on boot, and any one of them could be conflicting with UE....
Ya never know. My computer came from the factory with the Windows settings running graphics on the motherboard graphics chipset, bypassing the...
Remote switching, all the way back in 2004 (DTG cheated to give us player control). The hump yard was taken out in 2017.
1) No, Koln has its own S-Bahn run by KVB independent of the RRVV, in its own livery. 2) The S-Bahn lines that run out to Duren, the S12 and S19,...
The former hump yard was graded so it's still there but with no hump. The manual switches are now all centrally controlled from the tower.
Sleeper load-in hasn't been addressed on any route. It's a core issue, to which no solution has yet been found.
The article specifically mentions the SKA ICE3M. Since neither ICE3 is really correct for Dresden, the SKA version is the better choice because...
Separate names with a comma.
