Good to hear. Can't say losing GD is enough to make me want to bin the game, but it has made me suspicious of the company's motives. Perhaps that...
Depends on your graphics card I’m afraid - for my RTX2060 there’s an Nvidia control panel where I had to disable shader cacheing, reboot, delete...
Ha ha, me too - usually it's my old haunts at Carlisle or Preston (and now Crewe, and hopefully someday soon Workington!) - fun to just watch the...
Thinking this over more, I guess I can sort-of understand the logic behind trying to keep discussions relevant and on-topic, and trying to control...
First time I loaded up Carlisle-Preston and took a walk around Carlisle station back to my old spot at the end of platform 1 overlooking the old...
Depot gets my vote!
Wow, I spend a day off the forums cos it’s too hot to lift an iPad and look what happens :D TBH I’m in two minds about all this - on the one hand...
I’ll stick around for the feedback thread as long as it’s honest and not overly-sanitised. Feeling quite peeved with this complete shutdown of...
Same as the old DMUs like the 101 etc, you apply the brakes by moving the handle beyond the”lap”, return to “lap” to hold at whatever setting you...
FWIW if you’re on PC clearing the shader cache does make a difference. Personally it runs well for me, but it sounds like I’m in the minority sadly.
Meant to say in my earlier post that clearing the shader cache really made a difference on my PC - FWIW, it's an i7-10700 with 32Gb and a 6Gb...
Yup, A = air brakes ... more details here: https://www.ltsv.com/w_ref_codes_tops.php
I suspect the real issue is that we're reaching the limits of what the core is capable of in its current form. There must be common factors...
That’s weird - I didn’t notice the exhaust fumes before, went back for another look and they’re all spouting away like you said, but there’s no...
Hmmm… I took a walk up to the works today and all the 40s were well and truly dead. Sad, but realistic, at least on my PC
Check out the 0P03 (I think) Crewe shunt job - 1945ish I think, CS in and out of the station with “clear” as the weather setting - absolutely...
Well, its been a busy day - hard to sum up really - I’ve driven and walked the heck out of this route today ( at least, I’ve gone and tried...
Just took a walk down the line from Earlstown to the junction - no mad trees for me though. Quite relieved, it's a bit unnerving they way they...
Hmmm I saw this behaviour just the other day on Blackpool Branches - looked like a force 10 was blowing around Kirkham & Wesham station but it was...
Some really nice contrasting services so far - I picked up 1S61 in Journey Mode and had a straight fast run from Crewe to Preston in an 87. Had a...
Happy to report no blurries or performance issues on my old 32Gb RTX2060 PC. Soooo busy exploring old haunts and watching the world go by! First...
Route learning?
Loving the electrics at Preston now, and the station announcements - even if they’re modern-style robotic instead of the bored local, for me they...
Had a great run from Workington to Llandudno behind 40058 … one of the £5 mystery trips… admittedly that was 1980 or 81 :D
Good question! I tend to anticipate the braking in advance, but every now and then I forget/get distracted and set the controller to run down...
That’s a hard one to answer quickly - best I can do is “search for Jane Whittaker” both on this forum and whatever search engine floats your boat....
It’s been a hard week not pressing the button on Trent Valley, for sure, but I know it won’t get a look in from Friday so much as I’ve loved...
Wigan is really impressive yeah - chuffed to see they’ve modelled the interior of Springs Branch too - that shed was at best a 50/50 for getting a...
I agree… it’s a totally missed opportunity, unless they have future plans to bolt bits on like the Thames Valley branches. It would be criminal if...
To get me back playing either route they’d need to fix the speed markers (I drive without the HUD), scenery, timetables, lighting and daft things...
Got me thinking about the "exciting" thing they briefly mentioned in passing about Blackpool, maybe they *have* got a set of Mk1s to go with it......
I don’t really agree that the game is in a downward spiral - it certainly HAS been, but clearly the discontent has been heard because we are also...
I reckon the ought to carry on bringing Birmingham to life, they did such an excellent job with Birmingham-Crewe - such an atmospheric place to...
Thoroughly enjoyed watching the stream this morning - absolutely can't wait for this route! They've done such a brilliant job capturing the whole...
That's made my day ! Totally day one, can't wait!
That’s a new thing on Birmingham-Crewe too (PC/Steam) - only started seeing it with the recent patch.
I guess finishing off Toton for the MML update is a bit optimistic, but have to say a new timetable and the 70 will get me back into that line for...
True, I was just speculating/hoping on the Crewe-Shrewsbury rumour and a possible new loco that would fit that. I'd love to see a 68 too, and my...
If the Crewe-Shrewsbury route rumours are true the 67 would be ideal for that. Certainly a day one purchase for me - highly underrated locos IMHO
Yeah, the timetables need livening up a bit and a bit of scenery TLC. Both routes are firmly in the “5 out of 10, must try harder” box for me, sadly.
Might take a punt on the Nuclear 20 then, just for the flasks that’ll layer on to Preston-Crewe.
Best bit for me about Crewe-Shrewsbury is that it opens up the possibility of TfW class 67 services…
Ah... misunderstood you - I read it as "no timetable" (as in, no other services running and a "dead" route) - ignore me, just having a senior...
I just go to timetable mode on foot at Crewe or Stafford or wherever, then spawn an 86+coaches wherever it'll let me, then set a path to wherever...
Good point, that would look pretty epic too!
Now THAT is an eye-catching livery! Maybe it just triggers nostalgia for BR Blue, but to my eyes it’s excellent. Shame we won’t see it until...
Yeah, just re-ran it... got to the signal (CE107) just as it turned amber this time - decided to stop anyway to see if I could get going again....
Nah, 805. Never had it happen before.
Another weird one - overlooking the black rectangles I just drove 1D87 from Stafford to Crewe. Got to the carriage sidings and was briefly held at...
Just tried an 805 run and the cab is full of black rectangles on the buttons. This is on a clean rebooted PC (Steam). Words fail me :(:(:(
