I assume it's linked to Matt saying: I reckon they specifically wanted to release a route without any modern stuff and see how it goes down. BRO...
I'll never understand what actually happened there. I mean, TSW 3 is the future, right? How can anyone in management look at We'll release the...
Agreed. As you said, you've got to start somewhere. If the choice is between having a monotonous 90s and only sticking to modern content, I'd...
Indeed. Sometimes, albeit rarely, 110s could even be seen pulling freight. The Bundesbahn and the Deutsche Bahn prior to sectorisation used...
MSB wants to have a word with you. Granted, DTG actually cheated and it isn’t proper banking (at least according to German rules) but I would...
It’s not ‘all’ wrong. It was in 1997 actually that many 110s were fitted with KWS for exactly that purpose. At any rate, the times of the 110s...
Glad I could be of assistance :)
Could it be “Federspeicherbremse”? That would probably mean that you’re trying to accelerate with the hand brake on.
I really hope it’s coming in the near future. I’m sick and tired of deleting content to play content. It should have never gone on for this long.
Hope that’s coming to consoles as well. Love old electrics (as I may have said a few times already).
I’d quite like to give trams a try so I appreciate the sim coming to consoles.
Another fantastic resource. Used it just this morning to check what type of ICE ran through Koblenz. I'm in two minds about this. I wouldn't...
Quick search revealed this site. It has lots of pictures of Koblenz Hbf in 1997. Like this: [IMG]
It's more complicated than that. The 101s had major reliability issues in their early life and the 103s were kept in service because of that. Then...
Extremely excited about this one. Iconic locos on a legendary route in one of the most varied eras in German railroading. I doubt we'll get the...
I am completely astounded. BRO’s Br 110 + KaKo were already a dream come true for me. Here I was, thinking Niddertalbahn would be the most...
Good start for TSW3 here. Issue Summary: Trophies not unlocking despite the prerequisite being met (see step-by-step instructions). Platform: PS5...
I second this for the same reasons. I started learning PZB on RSN and I still think it's the best route for it. I really don't recommend HRR for...
Never understood that either. I'd have said it's an arbitrary limit required by the software it's running on (and pretty much any number would...
Thanks for the update, Matt. Just started playing TSW 3 yesterday and I already dread micro-managing my collection as I start porting it over from...
Didn't know that. I just assumed that most of these were US-based based on their content. I was just speculating anyways. ...which I'm absolutely...
Much appreciated, antony.henley! Let's stay optimistic then. Thanks, it's just a bit tongue-in-cheek. I'll report back on that soon in my thread...
Heya :) I've been in (a very enjoyable) exile for the last 6 months and didn't have my PS5 with me. Consequently, I haven't kept up as much with...
Probably largely because of this: Notice Matt's wording: Local US devs probably know a guy who knows a guy etc. and can get a lot of things done...
That gives me some hope, at least. I would hardly call BRO vintage, but n-Wagen and the Br 110 are certainly a step in the right direction. Let's...
Especially if you've ever been to Brighton. I associate Thameslink as much with Brighton as I do Southern.
Do you have a timestamp or similar for that? Those would be grave news, indeed, for vintage routes overall. After all, the UK is the only country...
As long as it's coming to London Commuter, I'm in :)
Yes, because I prefer older locos to more modern locos. The operation of older locos is often more involved and the rugged, simplistic...
The entire unit-selector thingy is just about trying to compensate for the losses in the control cable for the dynamic brakes - nothing else. My...
Thanks for your detailed explanations; really helps people like me who don't keep up as much with the more technical elements of gaming. I guess...
Have to agree with this. I've yet to see any game where I'm blown away by ray tracing, it mostly looks marginally better at best. To be fair, I...
See it. Say it. Sorted.
No, it's permanently in mode U. The SIFA fuse is dead in front of you around knee height of the driver. The PZB fuse is in a little plastic box...
Fictional routes and unbranded liveries are a hard pass for me. When I play a simulator, I want realism, not fantasy. It’s already annoying for me...
Don’t think that would make much sense. People would just say yes to everything and you’ve learnt nothing. In the survey, you get a ranking of...
They're rarely about console-specific stuff (barring some announcements from DTG). A Playstation player will usually post in the PS section for...
What's not to love? Semaphores and the Br 628... What a nice combination, and in mint green on top! I'm very excited for this :)
That makes sense. Thank you very much for double-checking. With the change in the speed control, I can indeed see it being very useful in real...
I think you mixed up Freier and Bedingter there :) I've actually got a query about the Bedingter Auslauf. How often is it generally used in real...
Yeah, that's why I have taken to putting the force selector to zero before messing with the speed selector. Really, the more you drive the 143...
That's exactly the reason why. We're talking about using solely the electric brake (by having the speed selector in "on" with the force selector...
and that's why I said: You take the speed selector down to off before you start braking. That's the procedure taught in the manuals and training...
No. I mean, yes, in theory, but no. What happens when you do that is that the loco thinks it's been overspeeding and will hammer on the brakes as...
That's what you do in real life but unfortunately, we don't have the Freier Auslauf button in TSW. As Jonne1184 said though, reducing the force...
Probably a kink in DTG's signalling. I doubt the game separates Sh 1 and Hp 1 properly since both are "green". You're right, of course, Sh 1 is a...
Correct. Matt explained as such when the TSC route was released. For reference: [ATTACH] [IMG]
This, absolutely. Generally, I would like some older US coaches, be they heavyweights or streamliners. As for German content, we’ve finally got...
As far as I recall, Matt said that track-laying is a rather uncomplicated affair that sometimes happens months before any actual work on the route...
I see your point. Personally speaking, I'd also be fine with pdf maps of the routes giving information on the gradients. What annoys me is simply...
