I've slightly rearranged what you said, but that's a great saying which I will store away for use in everyday life. And completely true.
In defence of DTG, the new prices aren't unreasonable, taking into account inflation. Routes in TSC and the early years of TSW were £25, which...
However, routes in TSC and the early years of TSW were £25, so given the cumulative level of inflation over the last 5 years, a price of £32.95...
I think you misunderstand me. I'm saying the true cost to a business of employing an individual is a lot more than the salary they are paid. If...
It's expensive, and generally the pleasure I get from TSW doesn't justify the prices being asked. But you don't have to pay these prices. Wait...
The employment cost of people is a lot more than their salary. NI, pension contributions, office space, IT, line management and support activities...
Is that what MSTS became?
Class 170s in WMR livery have never regularly run on the route. I think they vinyled one for publicity purposes, but IIRC the fleet retained its...
I wonder what will and won't be modelled? Will the DB logistics sidings and MOD spur at Donnington be included? I would expect so. Will the now...
It depends on what you're objecting to. If you don't like urban routes, it mostly isn't one. If you're bored with the WCML, then it mostly isn't...
It's the West Midlands region, which is a lot more than the West Midlands conurbation. Most of the route goes through rural South Staffordshire...
For new players they are useless. For players who bought the AP 442 sound pack in the past they still have a use. It's frustrating, but there's...
The route is said to be set around 2010. What are the differences between then and now?
There was a Dutch payware TSC route in development. I even saw screenshots, but there has been no news for six months
As trevkiwi says. We come to the end of another week at TSC Towers. All known bugs are fixed; product support is on standby to fix any newly...
Maybe there is just no support for TSC? I'd be surprised if there is support, as it’s no longer being developed and hasn't been for some time....
I have the Duchess and SSS sound enhancement pack installed, but not the mod files linked to above. The SSS pack makes a noticeable difference to...
My understanding is that after a heated exchange with another contributor, he asked to have his account deactivated as he wanted to withdraw from...
The Steam Sounds Supreme sound pack corrects some problems, and it seemed to work well when I last played it, though that's a few years ago.
I think it also depends on the age of the RSSLO route. Their early ones have better frame rates and less micro-stutters. I currently only have...
I don't have the route, but I was always under the impression that these were DTG's models that had been released previously as standalone DLC....
Yes, the stench coming into the coaches must have been something else!
I think some realism is needed about bugs. No software is ever bug free and no simulation can be 100% accurate. All we can expect is bugs that...
I've never used the route, so my observations are limited. Have you tried repairing the track in the editor?
That's the Class 57 that has recently been converted to coal burning. Apparently it's to protect against further oil supply disruptions.
twobuss#1580 How would you say the underlying core of TSC compares with TSW. Yes, I know it's a lot older and doesn't do some things well, but I...
All those items are available in DTG's other older product, Train Sim Classic, which is available on Steam.
DTG seem to be picking up the pace on bug-fixes, but it is still slow. I am fairly sanguine about TSW, as I have an iron rule to only buy content...
I think you are being unfair to DTG. They make poor product backing decisions, have a shambolic QC process and don't seem to have the ability to...
And if the TSW General Discussion goes, a lot of useful historic advice on setup and modding will go to. That will be a loss.
I play both games so post in both fora. The TSW community are very displeased and a couple of them seem resolved to start an independent TSW...
There is another aspect of this that needs considering, and that is DTG's ability to actually resource this forum. DTG strikes me as a Pullup...
A lower intensity main line would be interesting, say Wolverhampton - Shrewsbury. About 35 miles long. Logical end points. A big TMD at Oxley. TfW...

That might be possible. I believe PLD and AP have collaborated on other projects. However, it would be a new way of working for them, and AP...
Just like your next lottery ticket will be the big winner? Even if those DLC don't have annoying specific bugs, you will soon grow tired of their...
Hmm, I think this thread has come to the end of its useful life, just like TSW. I think the root cause of the high emotions is a product with too...
Yes, it's a premium price. Whether it's worth that much is something only the buyer can decide. It is priced the same as other loco packs from...
Activities like checking doors are closed, tail lamp present etc. aren't currently simulated (as far as I know). You could go through the motions...
Their Facebook announcement said Vol 2 would be privatisation era, and a possible Vol 3 would cover special liveries. There was no mention of the...
Yes, a big surprise. I'm surprised there's no mention of the earlier versions from its introduction to the start of BR Blue.
As a volunteer dispatcher on a heritage railway the option of dispatcher mode would interest me.
Did they glue the rails to the sleepers (ties)? I can't see any shoes, spikes or anything else?
Third-party DLC can usually be re-downloaded from the site you bought it from. Which locos are you having problems with?
It's puzzling why just the light pacific (un-rebuilt) is being withdrawn. There was speculation on Facebook (so probably untrue) that PLD wanted...
There are also occasional fatalities involving railway staff, contractors and in one recent very sad case, a police officer rescuing a member of...
Just using the library of previous winning screenshots and selecting a couple at random would be good. DTG Jamie
Where's the setting for that please?
Holiday season beginning to affect staffing? DTG on the verge of collapse? Staff working on other projects/priorities? Who knows? Whatever,...
If you buy from Steam you have the benefit of their refund system and that you won't have to locally back up your purchases. And the Steam sale...
