The core of the problem seems to be buffers (the coupler assemblies on US trains) which decompress with excessive force, creating a wave of...
I don't recall DTG ever having promised either multiplayer or VR.
Well, I think one factor in the decision was looking ahead to making HS1, which meant modeling the TVM system anyway.
I think what Kanga means is that in TSW3, the only routes with the new lighting system will be the new routes (post-Sept 2022), whereas all legacy...
In full wetsuits: the surfing is good, for the hardy and dedicated athlete - but there's none of southern CA's sun 'n' fun beach culture: way too...
Which makes no sense, since SFSJ is hundreds of miles from the surfing beaches around LA, and a completely different climate. It would be like...
FIFY. Unreal's tile-loading system is to blame, and there is little DTG can do about it (other than move to a completely different engine)
Not presently possible. It may in the future, with complete decoupling, become possible, but for now each route requires the version of a loco...
The great big "DEV" at the top of the screen
3. The new HUD element is a line under the signal state (top right) which, on German routes, shows the current PZB state.
Yuck!
Let me attempt to practice my German... -2 km/h (going (through) train wash) -5 km/h (entering siding "Hall track": storage siding?) -10 km/h...
And a damn length counter ( I'm sure I'm a minority here, but I have never liked the pumpkin look. They should have kept the classic Santa Fe...
It's hard-coded. The dispatcher isn't capable of dynamic routing.
Oh, malarkey. 4k monitors are still the minority, because they are still very, very expensive.
Um, no. It wouldn't. UE5 is not some magic wand which will instantly make Everything Better. It's a package of programming tools, which have to...
Best of all would be the option of a field into which the user can type an exact time.
One of the nicer if underappreciated aspects of HRR is that freight services are full of lengthy holds while passenger traffic rolls by.
Not possible as the game is currently structured. Dependencies are locked in, with regard to older locomotives; future decoupling may in time make...
Again, you can NOT draw any conclusions from apparent stutters in a livestream, which in most cases are caused by sync variations between the...
The difficulty with tunnels is that, in 3D CG worlds, the default lighting condition is "light everywhere", as opposed to the real world where of...
Mostly trolling
Exactly. If it just said "185.2 (MSB)" it wouldn't be a problem
It shouldn't. Freight locos can't go faster than PZB speeds anyway. The only exception is the 182, but in freight service they're restricted to...
The chat was brutal- unfairly so- but I think what was otherwise a fine stream was not helped by the fact that Lukas, as a presenter, really needs...
Only if the minimum requirements are changed to an i9 CPU with an RTX 4000-series graphics card
Distant shadows are absolute framerate destroyers.
That's nothing more than Level 1 Limited Supervision. Switzerland has only installed Level 2 on its high-speed line.
I would be very surprised if this were a vintage route; DTG seem allergic to vintage German.
In theory, yes, but considering how similar they are I wouldn't consider it a priority. (There also aren't all that many of them; and they're only...
I had taken the Amfleets as read, since Boston is a core Rush Hour route; but you're right, it won't be a base TSW3 route. Still, it's something...
AIUI, the old tutorials are going away completely and being replaced. Most of the new tutorials will be located in the training center, but some...
That unfortunately has just defined a class which is not only gigantic, but different for every player. There is no way DTG could assign priority...
Update: Per JD's announcement today, the three base TSW2 routes (Köln-Aachen, Bakerloo, Sand Patch) WILL be available in TSW3 at launch.
It depends entirely on the railway; the US has no unified national set of rules (there are two standards, NORAC and GCOR, but they are voluntary).
Exactly: decoupling would enable loco/rolling stock DLCs which couldn't be justified on a single route, but which could appear in a limited way on...
All right, there are two sets of definitional misunderstandings that need to be cleared up: 1) Quality assurance vs beta testing: too many people...
Do you know who Maik is? Yes, he has access to the code: he works with it, with spectacular results (BR 101, G6, contributions to the ICEs etc etc)

"But this goes to 11!"
TSW3 has been in the works for a year.
Not true. The Preservation Crew updates WILL be rolled out to both games. What is the case is that there will be no more new DLCs for TSW2.
Um, considering that route DLCs ordinarily go for 25 quid apiece.....
It's kind of hard to find on those Gen 2 EMDs- it's low on the brake pedestal, near the floor. It may be easier to find it the first time if you...
The only explanation for which is that a) people love to be a-holes, or b) people are masochists who love to be abused by a-holes. If the player...
Until such time as full manual firing is implemented (sometime around the Second Coming of Elvis), water in the boiler is always full and the...
I don't see what that would add to the experience. So, as you whoosh by an oncoming train, there's now a little sign over the cab with a...
And we still haven't got them. DTG can call the new expanded SEHS an "extension" all they like, but it isn't one: not in the sense users meant,...
AIUI, if 218s still run there at all, it's only as backup in case a 245 breaks down.
DTG have changed the vocabulary in midstream: apparently "extension" no longer means what it had always meant before. We're going to have to come...
