So no pre-load then?

Will this route and the core be demonstrated in a more complete and professional state than seems to have been the case with Dresden to Leipzig?...

Not to mention that Free Roam gives you no timetable to run to and no AP or accumulated mileage for the train and route in question.

Without going OT, same as Maintalbahn. You get to Miltenberg and the really nice scenic portion (according to Open Street Map), starts just...

And by the time the content is downloaded probably be four days of actual early access. I would say DTG should agree a preload with Steam at any...

Yes it would be great as the current length, just as you get into the run it ends. I think we have more chance of getting the loco than Rivet...

When I was searching for info about the DB BR145 yesterday, Wikipedia seemed to indicate a small batch were produced for Switzerland. So it would...

+1 on that. My pre order kind of hinges on this.

If anything, what should have been delayed was the German preview stream. They could have done it a week today (Fri 19) followed by NJT on Monday...

Thanks for that. I have heard before (probably from Maik) that Zusi should not necessarily be used as a benchmark to judge the accuracy of German...

I think there was also an instance on PFR, on the Down line possibly around Matlock Bath where you got either a misleading or no distant warning...

Ideally the UI would be user configurable, not what some bright spark at DTG Towers decides as the flavour of the month. Just as in the same way...

Indeed. I had a big old train in Zusi and was struggling to get away from Kassel towards Hann.Munden.

I share the view it might be prudent to delay release by a couple of weeks just to get things polished, but we have rarely seen DTG do that in...

Wondering if the BR294 will sub in for the 363 on Maintalbahn? We’d probably be stuck with the 55 km/h speed limit but at least it should get...

Good point, actually. The only officially released footage of the 802 I’m aware of is the brief portion on the Direct presentation when it did...

Fair comment. I don’t know a great deal about modern German electric locos, but playing the 145 in Zusi 3 it looked and sounded exactly like a...

The brakes can take a while to release and top speed is only 55km/h. Bring a book to read!

Now that really does have my finger poised over the refund button. The 800's and 802;s are quite loud both exterior and interior. In fact at...

Put simply, based on driving it in Zusi 3 in terms of sound and actual driving unless you are particularly interested in the expert features I...

Okay had a chance to run one in Zusi 3 from Kassel to Hann. Munden (looks a nice route, maybe it will come to TSW one day). Nice enough loco but...

It's still a lock up due to something not moving as it should be. And before anyone suggests just going in the 2D map to delete the errant train,...

Not only that it needs a route to run on, which would either be the Hammersmith and City/Circle Line, District Line or Metropolitan Line, though...

Not to mention the whole point of the forum is that you can glance at it and update every so often while doing something else, not sit in a bl__dy...

Just wondering if this was mentioned at all during the Leipzig stream last night?

We managed for quite a few years without it Jamie and its a particular pain when posting from a tablet or phone, as I am now. It does need to be...

Never heard of the 145 so will need to see if I can find one in Zusi 3 to check out.

Same here, I turned off the Driver Assist as a PITA. Looks like I will be running without faults enabled then.

To be brutally honest, after the reaction to last nights German route stream the last thing on my mind is the “fluff” but more what sort of mess...

There’s a thread in GD about the stream… https://forums.dovetailgames.com/threads/german-preview-stream.93655/ Looks like it didn’t come across...

Just catching up on the overnight comments and those made on the other Leipzig threads. At this stage keeping an open mind until we see what...

Doesn't sound good. Seems like a postponement and another month in the oven might be in order. Though hopefully the UK route being less complex...

Haven't watched the stream but this, tied up with the comments by the EP to the effect none of the routes were near ready does raise a yellow...

Anyhow, completed and in only 10 days this time. Probably my swansong in TSW5 too as just over two weeks until we get our paws on TSW6 so time to...

Me! My potato is probably over 10 years old now, it had a GPU upgrade and some more RAM plus an extra hard drive. However the motherboard (Z87K)...

Ironically, the cost of model railway equipment these days is challenging even to people on a good wage or pension.

+1. For years growing up I wanted a Hornby “electric train set” (or a Scaletrix racing car set) but my parents never had enough money for that....

Yes I’m fairly certain the Czech route will be Day One. Has the advantage of being diesel, the only caveat being how good the sounds on the loco...

The system needs to be flexible enough to recognise both sets of circumstances but (sadly) I just don’t think DTG are that clever to make it work.

Well technically you can sort routes by “Recently Played” except that it doesn’t actually do that and just randomly shuffles the route order.

Was definitely a red herring then!

It’s slightly strange as on the leaked artwork prior to the Direct, there was a picture of a Dutch train alongside the GWR Class 802. Then the...

It has now been clarified in another thread, we will need to keep the original Dresden to Riesa installed so it confers layers on to other German...

Then it gets worse. If you save that second service after returning to free roam, then load back in to resume all the objective data has been lost...

I thought it would be so. Then there needs to be a way of hiding obsolete routes retained for this purpose that won’t be played any more, from...

Speak English here please.

Okay I didn’t see that about the button, buried in the wall of text.

Can it be clarified if we need to keep Dresden to Riesa installed unused for the layers it puts in older routes or will these now layer from the...

And actually give the 1442 some traction and running sounds!
