The difference is that BML was developed after the 4.26 upgrade and some optimization work, which made possible the ultra-ambitious goal of...
Parked wagons have an empty brake pipe and cylinders: it takes some time for the engine's compressor to recharge them
Which if any of these shadow commands are framerate-neutral? I'm always happy to look for visual improvements, but my system can't take anything...
The Coastway is Southern territory; Southeastern doesn't run on it. And the 425s only run, in-route, on the very short segment of the RE8 between...
While that's true, they are bespoke situations individually programmed: i.e. "scenarios" in TSW terms
A very straightforward shot from Newton to Neilston and vice-versa, using pretty much any vintage BR traction you might own (maybe the 66 as well,...
Its extremely unusual to see two different loco DLCs for one route. The only ones I can think of are West Somerset (which is conceived of as a...
However, the Mystery British Route was said to be further along in development than Chemnitz and presumably will release quite soon, whereas steam...
AIUI, steam is still at the technology demonstrator stage, they haven't begun to develop routes or even specific locos for it. As Matt said last...
And that apparently is exactly what DTG are doing now, for precisely that reason. Matt in the last or last but one stream said that they now have...
What's ironic here are the comparisons to ETS, given how chock-full that is of unlockable content, effective "levels" - and above all miniaturized...
Fair point; but then, once a routine has been developed (a working EOTD, for example), it shouldn't take two years or anything like to adapt that...
Whatever this mystery UK route is, it was decided upon nearly a year ago. Nat was being understandably coy, because she knew good and well not...
I do think that there is a certain set of features which, if present in the real-world loco, must be modeled and reasonably accurate in any game...
But that would mean either having two versions of the Paddington-Reading run in competition with one another, set just a few years apart- or...
Well, there certainly were (and are) other options: Run-8, Zusi, Densha De Go, Derail Valley and Trainz just for starters.
AIUI, Joe recreated every Southern service that runs on the BML, and even added a couple of non-standard "diversions" of GWR trains just because...
I think what AP is referring to is the fact that the early FP40s with prime mover-powered HEP had to keep the huge 645 running at 900 rpm just to...
NP.
Hm! I had always assumed they were both on the rear.
This is why C-C six-axle, six-motor arrangements are considered preferable for road engines to B-B four axle setups (compare the EMD SD and GP...
The lovely thing about PZB is it never tells you what you've done wrong, it just kills your train.
It's probably easier to learn PZB running freight, since you don't have to simultaneously and separately be processing station stops and...
Considering that he did the stream on an XBox.....
I fear however that the release schedule is above Matt's paygrade. Paul came from EA, and I fear brought with him EA's attitude towards release...
Just got Arosa (not the livery pack), due to the sale discount plus the recent update. It's fun! Yes, the distant scenery is pretty TS1 (snow...
1) "Freight" and "Passenger" are for the driving cab, and mean that that brake stand has control of the system. "The "Lap" settings are for...
Necro much?
While I understand that it is a big technical challenge for DTG to incorporate a fully-functional, scrolling EBuLa system on German trains, it...
IRL, drivers use landmarks as braking points etc ("15% brakes at Block Signal A214" or "Start the approach into Tadcaster at the old mill") I...
In all seriousness, these boards need to be re-organized into a General forum with separate sub-forums for platform-specific issues.
And sound looping. Don't forget the sound looping.
I don't think that's necessarily the case. What we aren't going to see is the sort of radical course change that never was going to happen - DTG...
I'm waiting for The Who's Old Engine Driver DLC (https://www.azlyrics.com/lyrics/who/aquickonewhilehesaway.html)
It’s implemented in TSW on the Class 66
On a loco like a Gronk - which isn't very big - much easier to mount the traction motors on one axle and link the other wheels with connecting...
They're right there, hard to miss (in fact, you can't help but read them on German routes, since at any distance they resemble speedboards).
There are trackside mileposts every 1/10th mile on US and UK routes, and every 200 m on European routes. Why add another gadget to the cab when...
Not necessarily. It's entirely likely that it's been in production for months, but the announcement has been held up for whatever reason - and...
Nota bene: NORAC (Northeast Operating Rules Advisory Committee) rules dominate in the US east of the Mississippi (i.e. CSX and NS), but the...
But will feature in the upcoming Horseshoe Curve, so they haven't walked away. Oakville?
The old Northeastern railroads pose a peculiar problem, because after the Pennsy and NY Central merged to form Penn Central, only to go bust six...
However, shutting down HEP ought to kill the lighting and A/C in the coaches, but apparently it doesn't.
It would only be possible with an AI fireman. No one person can run the engine and the boiler simultaneously, but there is no prospect of...
For that matter, the Clinchfield SD40 and the Boston FP40-3 may not be wholly new, but they do represent substantial reworkings of the earlier...
I get what you're saying, Sam- but surely just about every new player starts with the base game and the three bundled routes? Meanwhile, buyers...
I would be amazed if they don't. Same trains, same TOC.
Thomas of course is the E2. Gordon is the A3 (but GNR, not LNER)*. The Black 5 is Henry (after his rebuilding). Pip and Emma are the power cars...
The Boston section of the NEC is now owned directly by Amtrak, but it’s former Conrail line and I believe the Conrail sections of the CSX or...
Because DTG can't be seen to endorse monkeying around with the .ini file. Same reason they can't be seen to endorse mods or the unofficial editor.
