Just for those saying night lighting in this game always looks rubbish, I’d implore you to drive a night service in Maintalbahn and using GodMode...

Without wanting to sound like a broken record, the night lighting is the night lighting and is the same on EVERY ToDv4 route in the game. The...

I would say this. I don’t have any formal training in this sort of thing, everything I’ve learnt is from reading literature on UE4 then trying to...

The lighting as it is is just a set of variables that, as far as I’m aware, can be changed for zero performance impact. The same goes for...

Yeah, you’re right, that’s solution. Make the game daytime only. Much easier than bothering to create a workable night scene. If there was a...

Sorry, I wasn’t replying to you. I’ll edit my post to make that clear.

Again, night time lighting in this game is in a better state than the day time setup. At least it’s consistent. The biggest issue is that they...

Regarding the lighting, sadly it’s not that simple. In my humble opinion DTG need to set a standard for the lighting setup that works in all...

Just to reiterate again there’s some confusion about the issue with the night ‘lighting’. Unlike daytime there is nothing wrong with the lighting...

Erm…great, I guess?

I can’t imagine you’re annoying anyone, but if it makes you feel better to think you are then more power to you. We all have different standards....

This route was very obviously built by Rivet. It would go a long way to helping TSW5’s launch if DTG acknowledged that fact. DTG’s content from...

The night lighting is entirely down to the fact that they simply haven’t placed any light emitting assets across huge swathes of the route. That...

Me too. Missing environmental lighting which makes the twilight hours and night playable is as fundamental as the daytime. The difference is the...

If it were you giving the first example of your annual flagship release would you use a month old broken build, or would you use the best you had...

I disagree mate. The lack of night lighting is fundamental, and means playing at night, dawn, dusk or in poor weather is effectively not possible....

That is just insulting to people paying money for this. There’s no other way to describe it.

Absolutely agree. But then nor should the horrendous lighting, the broken tunnel flares (I mean, seriously?!), the non-working GSM-R, the empty...

I would guess that it’s likely something to do with the creation of Great British Rail, assuming that might ever happen. I can’t understand the...

Barring the tweaks to track shadows (which I believe to be a fudge with shaders but who cares if the result is good) almost nothing, if anything...

There are options that could be explored in the existing engine, like running a shader compilation from the menu or during game load. I believe...

1) Who built the route? Was it DTG or another studio? 2) Who made the timetable? 3) Have the sections that we have seen before been lifted exactly...

I’m not sure Aran’s thing is modding the same stuff, so will still load in behind yours. I think that’s the case, I haven’t had chance to double...

This is a VERY rough approximation of something that would work on EastCoast Way and GWE which uses an approximation of my Ultra settings. As you...

Just to note though that my mod is set up to alter routes on a per route basis so the TOD3 routes are TOD3 in the mod, as they are TOD3 by...

Just to note though that my mod is set up to alter routes on a per route basis so the TOD3 routes are TOD3 in the mod, as they are TOD3 by...

That’s the one!

One of the ways to improve the blue in the sky is pretty much kill the very low resolution high cloud that is there by default. There’s a line in...

We’ll have to see on release, but if the game is no longer using cascaded shadows for the track it could be quite a substantial performance win....

It was well hidden to be fair!

Spikee1975 This mod already exists on trainsim.cz. It’s been there since not long after TSW3 released....

That’s fair, but then Matt has said a lot of things that haven’t been entirely correct. I’d imagine his role is quite a dynamic one, in that plans...

That’s always been a problem around this game for some reason. People repeat a myth so often it starts to become the truth, which it often isn’t...

I think we all do. It’s all anyone has ever said since this game first came out, but DTG don’t seem to want to deliver it, at least not...

FWIW it’s worth, since I started using that ‘Lossless Scaling’ program the game is as smooth as silk. Shock horror! I mean, it’s kinda obvious but...

FYI rain effects are also missing on what I believe is Cab 2 of the 101 itself, it’s not just the cab car. There is also a loud noise appearing...

It’s a secret and very very difficult

You’re not the first person to say that. Very strange, maybe it was just me!

Hey all. I noticed this morning that, for me at least, yesterday's game update seems to have overwritten the main engine.ini (to my knowledge,...

You’re probably right, and that’s what’s probably behind it, but that’s even more non-sensical to me and smacks of a knee-jerk reaction. ‘Quick,...

It’s not me nor DTG that have caused this. SBB will no longer be in train sims, and that’s on them. No one else. There’s a whole world out there...

Daft as it is, the ones that have suspension are DTG made trains (except the JT ones). The others are 3rd party, so in the case of the 158 it’ll...

They may have, but unless Stadler themselves have a problem with it the operator has no right to issue a cease and desist on something they have...

They are, as much has been said in this thread. Good riddance to them.

Assuming they are just an operator and don’t build the train itself or own the infrastructure they have no claim over that. Anyway, it’s a moot...

Well, to re-iterate, I would personally rather they just removed the logos than change a single thing about any trains or routes going forward,...

Where the unfortunate ‘gamey’ elements are detracting from the simulation side of the product.

It’s all very very strange, and this weirdness over licensing seems to be almost entirely confined to the railway industry. You can buy manual’s...

Take the logo off and shove two fingers up at them. How totally ridiculous.

Indeed, but an opinion derived from (and which can be backed up with) facts, considered thought and a bit of critical thinking is not the same as...
