Oh yeah, you are right about that. I looked into it a bit deeper. Rides under 2 miles are not logged at all, neither locally nor on...

Yes, you’re right, apparently the world decided it was a good idea to reuse station names across continents :) There is a temporary workaround:...

Yes, there is a minimum threshold. Rides need to be at least 2 miles long to be logged and published to WhistleBoard. This helps filter out very...

Glad you noticed! That exact friction was what Radar First was designed to remove. Less switching, more driving. It’s the beginning of a shift...

It’s actually quite simple once you see it in action :) You simply choose "Start Service", pick a live timetable or custom one, select a voice,...

I use a timetable-driven announcement system that runs independently from the route itself. So it works on older routes as well, without needing...

ThirdRails X (Version 10) has just been released. Radar First further refines the live multiplayer radar experience and prepares the platform for...

Interesting question :) I honestly don’t know if it would work on Linux. ThirdRails is a Windows .NET desktop application, so it depends heavily...

Great to see ThirdRails in action on your streams, really appreciate that! I noticed you’re using the Radar tab as your main view, which makes...

Hi, thanks for reporting, you run into a rare edge case issue here.;) I’ve reviewed what’s happening and this is caused by a dying or stalled TSW...

I see AI as the tool that takes care of the beans, so developers can spend their time on the good stuff, the meat and veggies, leading to a...

For those interested: ThirdRails 9.3 has just been released. This update resolves the “cloud operation is invalid” issue. Database files are now...

I can confirm this has nothing to do with your system. After a recent Windows update (KB5074109), large local database files stored in OneDrive...

Will have a look, but currently at a mountain in Austria, so might take a while :love:

Thanks for the report, glad to hear you are enjoying the app! You can usually fix this by resetting the HUD panels layout. Go to File - Settings...

Don’t worry, the system is partly self-healing when it comes to naming mismatches. Because TSW and TSC can use slightly different names, stations...

Make sure you run TSW in “Windowed Full Screen” mode via the Window Mode settings. Lossless Scaling should not affect the ThirdRails app itself....

Interesting! How did you manage to read the route/scenario and active timetable with the API?

Unfortunately OpenWeatherMap weather layers are served with fixed low opacity in the tile itself. F.e. see this tile:...

Well I have added OpenWeatherMap precipitation, cloud, temperature and wind layers. It’s not full reflectivity or a real satellite overlay, but...

Thanks for reporting this! The station network layer wasn’t supposed to appear in the current release. It is something we are developing for the...

Looking at your screenshot, everything seems fine, the loco is shown, so the API is working. There’s one known situation where you might not...

That is weird. Do you get an error? Where do you see the rolling stock? Feel free to contact me via email (beentrain @ gmail.com), messenger or...

Well, they’ve turned folder naming into a modern art form :) Stay tuned, a new release is coming by the end of next week, featuring improved...

That explains it. One platform, three different folders to save the key. Will make a fix for this in 9.2 Thanks for info!

I have not the Epic version. Can you tell me in which folder the TrainSimWorld.exe is located? Chances are that the auto Train Sim World version...

Looking pretty standard to me. For some reason, ThirdRails isn’t able to detect which TSW version you’re running. Since TSW5 and TSW6 are...

In what folder are TSW5/6 installed?

Yeah you mixed up, should be TSW6 to TSW5. Backup of keys is not recommened they can change at anytime according official documentation. So again:...

You probably mixed up the apikeys. Delete the commapikey.txt file from the C:\Users\[YOUR USERNAME]\Documents\My Games\TrainSimWorld6\Saved\Config...

Try "%20" In C# you can do this: string encodedNodeName = Uri.EscapeDataString("VirtualRailDriver.Auto Brake"); This results in...

Exactly my thoughts! It would be amazing to actually see the weather rolling in on the radar. Unfortunately, I haven’t come across any free or...

That information, as shown when pressing T, is unfortunately currently not available in the API.

Oh that’s really cool! Just some thoughts…... ThirdRails users generate literally thousands of potential annotation points every day, for instance...

For those interested: ThirdRails 9.1 is out! Now with auto TSW version detection, so no more swapping API keys between 5 and 6. (and 7,8,9 etc...

Glad you found the info useful! The TSW API is REST-based, so unlike a WebSocket API you can’t subscribe directly to events happening in the sim....

Yes, ThirdRails will support TSW 6! I already have version detection built in, but I can’t test it myself yet (waiting for Oct 1). If you, or...

Yeah I see what you mean. But I must say that polling the API works fine for ThirdRails. On localhost there’s really no noticeable latency, even...

While we wait for the official Train Sim World API documentation, I’ve compiled an unofficial reference PDF based on how ThirdRails uses the API....

I don't think API documentation is available yet but this is a good startpoint: The API runs on http://localhost:31270/. Start by checking these...

“the bing debacle” LOL, you make it sound so dramatic :) I have no plans to add account options for now. Due to privacy I want to know nothing...

I couldn’t resist adding an electronic Wave function to the ThirdRails HUD radar panel. Now, if you spot one, you can wave at the real virtual...

I won’t be dropping TSC anytime soon, I’ve got way too much DLC invested in it to just walk away. Since version 5 I’ve been using TSW more and...

Yeah, Lossless Scaling really doesn’t get along with overlays like ThirdRail’s HUD panels, just adds stutters and makes things worse. If you’ve...

If you’re looking for a multiplayer-style experience, give ThirdRails a try. It lets you broadcast your position to a shared radar. You and your...

MSI GS75 Game laptop Windows 11 Pro Intel Core i9-10980HK NVIDIA Geforce RTX 2080 w/ 8Gb memory Memory 32 Gb 2 TB SSD Good performance on TSC and...

The download link above is the same. However, I recommend always using the link in the Download section of our website or one provided by one of...

Thanks for the heads-up! Just to clarify: there's no update required for the Bing Maps retirement. (Can't hurt though, the last update 9.0.0.4,...

Yes, you can get track data via the get/DriverAid.TrackData endpoint. I initially used it to calculate track gradient, but later realized that...

Have not played with weather. But generaly you must use the HTTP Patch method to set values. For weather it would be something like this:...
