Hello Dion Flannery welcome to the wonderful world that is TSC. With regards a suitable PC, the question is what else do you expect to use it...
The Steam version of WCML South does not include the Northampton Loop, so you won't be going there with the standard DLC. There is a 3rd party...
DTG Jamie, we are now in the second week of July. When do you plan on judging June's competition please?
Yes, but both are British Rail. The first is BR in the 50s/60s and has steam, diesel and electric locos. The second is BR in the 70s/early 80s and...
The Woodhead lines give good BR action. I tend to drive the earlier route more. The two West Higland routes on Steam are nice. Each has...
The Settle to Carlise railway was built to be a high speed line with a maximum gradient of 1:100. The Jubilee Class was a 6P category. 8P was the...
Without knowing how many coaches you've got on it's impossible to say if you've got the right sized engine. One thing to note, is that as your...
I can't see anything on this page that looks anything like Open Rails.
That's a silly argument. If I don’t like a car I've been given, I'm under no obligation to make a better alternative.
One thing I've noticed is that older versions of TSC (specifically V75.8) give better framerates with RSSLO routes. Has anyone else noticed this?
Union Pacific Challenger, the DTG one, as its nice and cheap. Seriously, it's a question only you can answer, as only you know what's important...
Check your monitor cables are properly plugged in, and check your monitor is working correctly.
There is often no indication that content creators are about to stop; until they stop. Mesh Tools and Fastline Simulation come to mind. It...
By hard landing I mean that once the TSC user base drops below a certain level it will no longer be able to support commercial DLC producers and...
Just because a person is breathing doesn't mean they aren't close to death! I would say that TSC is definitely looking ill at the moment. Just...
Me to. But last time I installed it required an internet connection to activate, so presumably it still needs RSSLO's server to be up.
I'll buy it when it comes to Steam. I'm reassessing my purchases from 3rd parties that require on-line activation of DLC. I want to be sure...
Railworks America is now running again.
That's all rather sad, but it shows how these community sites (especially the important ones) need to be run by a committee/team, not an...
The buttons on the last page don't link to anything meaningful. Do you have to be logged into Wayback?
An annual MS 365 subscription costs me £84.99/year, but I buy it for reasons unconnected with TSC. As I've got 1TB cloud backup available with it...
OneDrive is no additional cost to me as I get 1TB bundled with my Office subscription.
Wouldn't a cloud based backup service be cheaper/easier? I use OneDrive.
We take care of things we value. If you didn't think it was worth keeping, it's probably what others thought about it as well. Since it doesn't...
That suggests the route wasn't that good.
On a PC keyboard the <Pause/Break> key will halt the simulation, but still allow camera movement. It's never failed for me (UK keyboard layout),...
Modern one handled EMUs may be simpler to control, but the number and type of safety systems has increased. I would say the mental load on the...
The 'young inheritors" don't have any memory of the older simulators and don't see why they should adopt inferiorer systems. You can't blame them....
What locos/trains are you driving? Some 3rd party DLC (e.g. Armstrong Powerhouse) don't cast light beams during the day.
kilt46 the link you provided has errors in it. For example, the Welsh Marches route is incorrectly associated with the West Highland Extension,...
trainsforlife4449 Your request requires an almost encyclopaedic knowledge of railways, as they are dynamic and have changed considerably over the...
Your route names give the major stations at each end. The best thing you can do is get a map of the routes and see where the major population...
Like the Latest Sale thread which should be only used to announce sales, but which you use to discuss anything that enters your head?
Has it run faster in the past?
When you boot up your PC go into the BIOS settings and check there.
Are you familiar with the terrain and isolation up in the Highlands? A horse would be a better choice if you can't access from the rail line!
They abandoned this project because they couldn't do the research needed! Specifically, Google maps was too low res and indistinct in the Highlands.
I agree with WhippleStripper, though I'd point out it doesn't really matter what I think. It's what you like the most that matters.
I would need to know the scenario season and time to form a view on which one is best.
My guesses: It's not intended to blink, or It's been incorrectly coded, or There's some kind of conflict on your PC. What is the help you want...
There's also Quick Drive which allows you to select any train on any route. Depending on the route there may be other AI traffic. It's never...
If you go through red lights on single track this will often happen.
I slightly prefer the monthly format, but I wish DTG Jamie would state the closing date for each one, as it’s never been the exact end of the...
It's available on Steam and from Aerosoft. I recommend it even if you're not interested in German railways, as the quality of route building is...
Those are small discounts by historical standards. 35% has been normal for the last 18 months or so, and 50% before that. But if there's...
matt#4801 I agree that it would be nice, even proper, to have an accurate simulator, but since it's obvious that the current quality of TSW is...
Guys, I feel your pain, but you have to set your expectations low. What we've got isn't going to change much, so we have two choices. (1) stop...
