But try driving a service from the MBTA cab car and it is almost impossible to get the doors to function correctly, up to and including making it...
It's time for some new stuff (possible Class 700 notwithstanding) not more recycling and reskinning. How about a retro electric pack as I...
Don't see it happening without a massive overhaul of the timetable. And personally I would rather see some suburban units added if anything...
Bremen suffers from being very short and has numerous level crossings where the vehicle stoppers don't wotk. DTG CBA to acknowledge this, let...
Let's just hope Skyhook learned from Rivet's mistakes... However not holding my breath and will wait for feedback before buying myself. The big...
Personally would have preferred a 4CEP/BEP or 4VEP...
Forest Rail but with slightly more modern Kiha’s would be good. Other routes I liked in BVE were Joetsu Forest - very long tunnels but nice...
Well it could be just about anywhere or anything in Japan, from a Tokyp/Osaka/Nagoya commuter route, to the Otaru - Niseko rural line on Hokkaido...
Okay thanks guys, Day One it is then rather than Day -2 or -3! :)
Sadly Harlem seems to have joined the ever increasing pile of broken DLC that we received earnest undertakings it would be fixed, now cast aside...
Question was addressed to DTG…
Quick couple of questions then, DTG Alex :- Will there be a pre-order window? If yes, will there be a 10% pre-order discount?
Day One...
Sounds like this will be my first actual Day One purchase from the new crop of routes, reservations about the 628 sound notwithstanding.
Sprinter DMU's are powered and geared for acceleration. Problem is, Rivet's initial take was overpowered, so they nerfed it and now can't pull up...
The fundamental issues I see at the moment is a massive decline in Quality Control, the malaise now extending even to the once dependable German...
I think it's been reported before that due to how Steam works, you tend to get bigger discounts later in the year. In fact this sale is a bit of a...
I wouldn't call road vehicles not stopping at level crossings and passing through trains exactly "cosmetic". Nor are some of the other issues...
TBH not really much I want or need this time round, at least for TSW. Couple of FSX DLC grabbed my eye, Air Hauler 2 and the CLS DC10 gets good...
That is pretty awful and really shows how bad the lighting can be in TSW. Not necessarily a thing with TSW3 either despite the adaptive eye, as...
Well it’s sloppy. BBO has exactly the same issue, which remains unfixed. To me it is indicative of sloppy route building and poor beta testing/QA....
Appreciate the response Matt. I think I will be happy to give the route a go, as I said. And at least it won't sound like the Aussie Alco from...
Yet DB see to be very keen to see their stuff in the game and apart from the 204 with its Rivet physics and the Skyhook attempt at the 187 it all...
I already addressed that after my original response with the "If it is" caveat.
Pandemic was obviously a special situation. However I note and respect Maik's response with the caveat that on the German forum referenced...
Thanks for that Rennekton. Have to say that is a little disappointing and it certainly does seem the majority of the German community share that...
Would you care to enlighten me please, as I don’t frequent those boards or speak German.
I do see where you are coming from. Even the new routes coming out are a dysfunctional rag tag of unconnected 30 - 50 mile essays. Great for a...
Has the 628 got correct sounds or is it aliased to the 612? Does it have correct Voith physics (i.e. unlike the dire Rivet 150/2)?
An interesting smaller route project might be one of the military railways. In the UK the long closed Longmoor Military Railway probably the best...
Simple answer, as I mentioned earlier. Moderated/approved posting for new members for at least the first three or four posts.
The system is so flawed anyway. You can do an hour run on Cajon and lucky to get 3000 points. Half an hour on Bakerloo and you get 20000 points....
With the brake you have to fine tune the small ejector so that the train brakes stay off when released but don't keep releasing when making an...
Ordinarily you would increase cutoff to 45 or 50% and give it the beans with 80% or more regulator. Unfortunately with the current state of steam...
Surely answer here is new members go on moderated posting for the first half dozen or so posts. Yes it means a delay to genuine posters but worth...
Now that would be awesome!
I wouldn't even object to a Sprinter/Pacer era rendition but there seems to be a preoccupation with making for the UK mainly electrified routes...
Fair enough, I will qualify my statement by revising it to, "If this is modern electric, not really of interest."
Not to mention the misplaced stopping points for some of the stations in the Down direction, the lower case spelling on one of the footbridge...
Short and pretty much flat as regards gradients and scenery. Combine that with modern push to go EMU's and as I said above I really don't see the...
Modern electric not really of interest.
There were also D trains in the daytime, several running from Hoek Van Holland (now reduced to being a metro station) connecting out of the...
Purely whimsical, but after a great struggle I finally got the Level D 767 working in FSX yesterday evening and what a great aircraft she still...
Interesting but of course if you need to clear the service as part of Journey mode, it won’t count if you pick it up on foot.
Apart from me wishing they had gone back to 1982!
It's probably the most scenic portion of the Rhine valley too, having recently driven the TSC version - which of course continues from Mainz to...
Indeed. I know the 10% off is tempting but projecting forward with a mid March release this is likely to hit the mid Summer Steam sale with an...
At least the 10% pre-order discount is back. I am tempted especially for the 103, but with Niddertalbahn likely hot on its heels that's the one I...
Except on Rivet routes where I have had the distant "off" but the associated section (starter) signal "on"!
To be fair, the one thing I have found on the Rivet routes I own is that they do come up with some original and interesting scenarios.
