I appreciate the sentiment there mate, but philosophical debate is a bit beyond the purview of this forum, we all know there are problems, we all...
This is the thing that confuses me the most, they have worked with AP in the past for sounds, if they can't get the time or access to the stock...
Not even close mate, take DCS for an example you're talking £40 for the base game (flaming cliffs) then between £50 to £60 per module (aircraft)...
This has been asked before, but believe it or not simulating flight physics is way easier than something like a train, where you have multiple...
Times like this we need the likes of AP and there enhancement packs, if DTG doesn't have an interest in consolidating stuff maybe they should...
I think he's also implying that's part of the problem mate, to many versions all being built on top of a flawed base, turning what should have...
I'm not even sure the underlying game could handle full fidelity like DCS modules, and there is no way in hell a console could even come close to...
Aye it's a good size staff, but without the breakdown of who does what its hard make and educated guess as to there effectiveness, i own a...
From what I've been able to find between 170-180 personnel work at DTG, there is no breakdown on how many work in each department tho
Where all guilty of this at some level, as a primarily PC based player my mental gymnastics excuse their behaviour because our wonderful mod...
You may find this useful mate: definition of the word Accident: 1.an unfortunate incident that happens unexpectedly and unintentionally,...
this i can believe, have you also noticed the passenger sounds in carriages playing when there are none, noticed that the other day on the 805, i...
want me to sample some of the cars from my rallying days LOL, lots of Cosworth/Lotus BDA and BDG sounds
Don't forget the shiny new wallpaper :-)
This has been discussed a lot in other threads, the simple answer is UE4 light engine sucks, pre-baked lighting isn't bad but real-time lighting...
My blind daughter could come up with a better livery than that LOL
One thing I'm surprised about is the lack of third parties making route/stock upgrades, so far it's the modding community that's taken on that...
I think for me the route is not as important as the traction, i don't mind moderns stock, but for me, they are a bit bland and i much prefer older...
Technically all 3 platforms are the same, as there all built on the same x86 platform, the main différance is i would suspect the baked in DRM...
TBH one thing I'm surprised they don't do is separate the .pac files into routes, stock and locos, instead of packaging them all under the route...
More like slightly blurry with rainbow edges and tracers everywhere :-P
Wish they would remaster NTP, love that route :-) next to WCML Shap its probs one of my most played routes.
Trying to talk to an adviser for carers scotland takes longer than waiting for the heat death of the universe (3hrs 42mins 12secs on hold)
This constant argument about consoles holding the game back are pointless, yes it's a stated fact that they can't compete with a decent PC but so...
class 90 now the 70 as well, finally some new freight traction :-)
I don't think it's just licensing that stops routes being made, you also need to have access to locos and rolling stock, then you also have to...
OMG that brings back memories, 2nd car i ever owned after getting my licence LOL, absolute shed but man rainy days and roundabouts were a lot of...
Oh, Jesus that's a frightening prospect, i mean the models they use for drivers and passengers are already scary, now you're saying they could be...
Damn even A.I. thinks where getting another class 66
I think DTG need to fix the 66 before they even think about adding a new freight loco, as I'm sure this (points down) isn't supposed to go there...
Talking about mods, a bit of a random question here has anyone else noticed how the class 158 causes delays on some modded timetables in game, for...
I get the same bug, but with a twist it only happens on the 40 with the head code box, not the 1 without :-)
TBH I'm not that bothered about modern licensing (half of them look like a train crashed into a paint shop, and not in a good way LOL), within a...
Np mate thanks for clearing that up, any chance you can drop off some of these community communication techniques over at DTG LOL
Got a lot of amazing moders out there, could the timetable be released, and maybe some of the moders could do the changes if there was interest?...
Probably Shap and NTP for me, i love freight work and those have the most, ECML is ok but just flat don't really have much driving to do, and Tees...
Quick question for JT Benedict, any plans on doing anything with the Preston docks branch with the upcoming Preston to Crewe route? or is it not...
Cant remember what 86s i saw back then to many yrs ago LOL, must have been those test beds for the 87 as i could imagine having the 100mph limit...
Where all the 86s limited to 100mph, as i remember as a kid seeing them on the push-pull runs with the mk3s and DVT in Preston, did they re-gear a...
I think the official engineering term is square peg round hole :-)
I have visions somewhere between sweatshop and everyone sat around on space-hoppers with those fancy height adjustable desks :-)
Talking about layers i must admit I'm enjoying the 2019 WCML Timetable a lot, shame DTG don't give out access to modify route speed limits (or...
Same really i remember seeing class 40s in Preston in the 80s, although they were not common they were hardly uncommon either, pulling either...
Hopefully JT can fill that void of not having AP involved with TSW, but man do i miss there sound packs, TSW is way better graphically but sound...
Got to be my fav route in TSW by a very large margin, and the sound of those fans spooling up on the 86/87 makes me smile every time, still think...
Would also need the class 82 DVT, even tho if i remember right, the class 87 ran the push-pull services from euston to glasgow for a quite a while...
Wouldn't be much of a push on the WCML over Shap as the class 90s started there in the late 80s 88 i think, so that's only 2yrs later than the 86...
I don't mind the fact the times may not match to be honest, as long as it's not hours, if the rough time and weather carries across i think the...
What would be nice is if we get somebody from DTG to comment on the feasibility of continuing a journey without leaving the loco and using the...
That's a flawed premise there mate, a flight sims physics are simple compared to an articulated ground vehicle, as far as i understand it MSFS...
