Which services? There are some consists which are simply too heavy for a pair of SD40s (3000 hp each) to lug up that grade. (These were...
I don't remember that at all. They simply said that they would not be included, not that no work had been done on them (obviously a lot of work had).
Way, way too complex an engine to be the first essay into steam. Beginning pianists start on Bach chorales, not the Hammerklavier sonata. My...
Are you quite sure that on the in-game graphical models of the wagons, these selectors reflect the actual brake setting? Or are they simply fixed...
I note from the new screenshots that they have fixed the wonky cranes at Battersea.
OTOH, 1992 was the year of German reunification, so he could be teasing a pre-uni vintage DBB route?
Would have been Heathrow Express Class 332s at the time. 387s only just took over HX services, and the red GX livery would be painfully wrong.
Very, very well done, three times three! Props also to DTG for recognizing that the player/modder community have a lot to offer. For their...
If DTG reproduced every RL tree and shrub, then players would be complaining about framerates and stuttering. Every additional scenery asset is...
Talking to people usually just leaves me depressed as to the condition of humanity
There is one mainline 204 service
Say rather it's an empty genuflection towards the lares and penates of 'Elf 'n Saferty. If you can't see and hear a train coming at 90 mph, it...
Does it on PC too, so it's not a controller issue.
More sales.
Yes. Becomes significant when considering tight-radius curves.
Steam is a long, loooong way away. Certainly not coming with the next route.
Now THAT would be awesome! Either use the 218, or maybe even a vintage route (there are a LOT of underserved Bundesbahn fans, DTG.....)
De gustibus and all that. Personally I can't abide Southern's blotches of pea-green and yellow: fingerpaint colours. Trains ought not look like F1...
Unfortunately, setting aside licensing issues (apparently it was First Group wot killed it; can't have the manky old livery in the game, bad for...
Unfortunately the 442 has no such switch, because IRL it only ever uses Mode O.
Also, it's already been done in TSC. Moreover, München Hbf has already been done in TSW; they can just copy it over from HMA without having to...
Munich-Garmisch would be great. Alpine scenery, about 80 km/50 mi. Bonus points if they add the Oberammergau branch (a 2022 release would...
The 260 to the best of my knowledge was the original (leicht) V 60, just renumbered as part of the new computer system. These remained unchanged,...
My Top Ten: 1) The ability to make groups of groups. Currently, with, say, a block of text, one can't simply break it down into constituent...
The original V60 was 48 tons as built. Some later had 6 tons of ballast added, called at first the V 60(s) and after 1968 the BR 261. The frame...
Where are you reading 14,47? I read 16,64.
Most British MUs have a front connector door as part of the design spec, hence the small cab and windscreen. They apparently don't take the German...
Yup. Just encountered it on Riesa-Dresden: came back after a break to resume a service, and found AFB completely nonfunctional.
Which is why I'm still encountering bugs in Mass Effect, a remaster of a game released in 2006.......
The staffer assigned to run around a dev build taking screenshots for the article was not one of the route-building team, had no idea whether a...
Very disappointed that nothing is mentioned about fixing Boston's cocked-up ACS/ACSES systems. At present the route is nearly unplayable with...
Which is bizarre, since that section isn't even usable except with the 204 DLC.
Correct, my bad. But that is over the buffers in their rest (extended) position. (for the US it's length over couplers, since buffers aren't an...
It took nearly a year to get LD liveries for the 363 to become selectable in-game. Well, Riesa-Dresden has broken it again. Not only do LD...
WRT to length measures, the upper DB measurement is overall length over the couplers. DTG's figure (based on the collision box of the loco or...
And the creaky old-school wood plank floors!
Still holding my breath for an Austrian route. DTG needs to add another country, and Austria/OBB is similar enough to Germany (for example, PZB...
Once in Dovetail Live, click the "My Profile" tab. That's where yours/s are.
The goal, according to Matt, is to have automatic PIS with manual override- that is, if you don't like the autodestination you can still set it...
That could be a real problem, if one responds to Sifa and thereby also engages "PZB Frei" between a 1000 hz switching off and an active red signal.
Generally, rail-sim.de also has some nice mods, not all of them available from trainsimcommunity.
I must say, Dresden Hbf does make my old PC chug.
Not the same one.
Not in game, it isn't. Air conditioning is a pretty fundamental design feature in real life; pretty irrelevant in TSW. You're really this upset...
Clinchfield. SD40. Wrong railing. Was fixed between preview screenshots and release.
In this case at least the problem is legal: the license-granting TOCs won't let their trains be depicted as dirty.
A modder named Nina did two must-have mods, one for bare trees and the other a rain/wind sound overhaul. Unfortunately, they haven't been updated...
Applying brake automatically kills the throttle; throttle function can't be restored until the brakes are released and the power handle reset to...
Yes, in theory that is possible: but the traction in that scenario is well capable of handling that smallish consist on that grade without either...
That's rather different, because cruise control is an important operating and gameplay feature. A working pantograph on a third-rail route is...
