This would be a great feature for the game specially for people who like to make long custom trains just like in train simulator classic even know this seems like a easy thing to do it's still hard to get all the trains together to pick Wich train to couple up or make. i bet this would be a massive great idea for the game Consists such as 375/9 + 377/1 377/4 + 387/2 This would work well for the class 43 and its new livery designer coming soon. Consists such as: 4 Coaches 5 Coaches 7 Coaches 8 Coaches 9 Coaches For Example, Once the Class 43 Livery Designer is out. what if i wanted to make a class 43 Scotrail Livery i could make the livery apply it to the custom consist and there you have a 4 or 5 car Inter7City Class 43 Scotrail HST. And if there were more liveries for the class 465/9 Like Yellow Doors with Grey Stripe. Blue Doors with no stripe. for example, if i wanted to put the 465/9 Blue Doors with Dark Blue Stripe with Yellow Doors with Grey Stripe. It would work very well. really really REALLY hope this is possible it would work very good with train sim world 3. hope its possible have a nice day.
Matt was talking about how consist creator is a highly requested feature I believe and that he wants it to come into game. We will just have to be patient until that ever happens. That way I can create some wacky consists lol
I agree and when an OBB Route is made how about OBB Baureihe 1016-1216 with Existing Dostos that way you avoid the issue of DB BR182 Dostos failure to close.
Excellent point. I always wondered why we couldn't do this. I came to the conclusion that freight routes don't get the same attention as passenger routes as they are not as popular. IMHO. And please, longer consists.
Yes, yes yes and again YES. This is what is needed imo as TSC already has that. For Scenario Planner ofc.
Not for Scenario Planner ofc. because it would be nice to have something free and it to be in the Scenario Planner, Livery Designer and workshop.
So many consist possibilities are currently not possible which is a real shame. Hopefully one day we will be able to create our desired train formations. Fingers crossed.
Longer consists are already a thing in American freight (sherman, hsc, cjp) but it's only available on pc, ps5, xbox series s and x due to memory limitations on last gen consoles
Yes and no. I have a PS5. Yes is there are a few longer consists. No is, not many. I only drive freight routes and I own every one you named. The average length of consists across all freight routes is about 60-70 wagons. Again, a few exceptions.
The ability to pick and choose locomotives & types of cars for your trip would definitely be a very welcomed asset. I know there is "some" choice when creating a scenario, but not enough IMO. And the dupe locos all wearing the same number if custom liveried is pretty lame. Not sure if there would be a fix for this other than making a copy loco with a different number. Anyway... Perhaps toggles for - type & amount of locos/liveries desired, types of cars/liveries desired, number of each, &c &c .
Yeah the only thing as Consist Creator is god mode on train sim community mod website so fingers crossed def that consist creator comes into train sim world 3.
I recall it being said that a consist creator was coming with scenario planner 2.0. Which never showed up itself...
Similar to TSC, all locomotives and wagons would then be lined up in a list. Could be accommodated as a consist editor in the Creators Club menu. Of course there are two major coupling systems: the buffer/hook and the automatic coupling. In the end it only makes sense to couple together what has the same coupling system. In the scenario editor you can then place the new train sets on any route you like. Sounds easy at first, but programming and beta testing will take time. So it would be something for a next big summer update, i.e. it will hardly be mentioned in the upcoming roadmaps, to then be delivered as a big surprise with TSW3.1 or so. One difficulty could be to load all 3D train models first, it just costs memory unnecessarily. It would make more sense to create each 3D model as a thumbnail in the side view (at the end the corresponding 3D model is then assigned). Then you don't overload the RAM and have a better overall overview. You would only see the whole new train set on the placed route.
i agree. or as the 3d models as you said. what if dovetail takes pictures of each side of the train and have this button on each side of the picture page of the train and click it to see the other sides..
Not just for Scenario Planner. I'd love to be able to create my own consists and use them in Timetable mode. Scenario Planner is nice, but it's too time consuming to set up a scenario with some decent AI traffic. What TSW really lacks, IMO, is a mode alike TSC Quick Drive; allowing you to drive any consist on any route, quick to setup (within a minute, assuming you've already saved your custom consist) and without the need to manually add AI traffic.
Yeah train sim world 3 needs to be more free matt says that the menu needs to be free and ez to get through. why not just add quick drive and consist creator. it would def boost game players up as they can make there train longer and short how much every they want. and in quick drive mode you get to choose if you want ai or no ai. like train simulator classic. TSC is more free then TSW3 anyway. its had all them things since the game was there. my point of view it would be ez to add them things. And i dont know why Scenario Planner is most cared about for free consists and custom consists my op i dont really like Scenario Planner theres no op for ai trains its all planned out stuff. when there could be suggestions or smthing good. Dovetail in TSW3's life better add it some day.
And with Workshop there could be a thing where you can download peoples consists i think that would be good when its added.or if it every will be.
Not just that, but with DTG uncoupling loco DLC from route DLC, such a feature would massively increase the potential of loco DLCs... I mean... for the upcoming Acela DLC, you probably won't need to own Boston-Providence, but what are you gonna do with your Acela when you don't own the route? I doubt there'll be any layers for other routes, and Scenario Editor is just a pain... don't have any other word for it. I once tried creating a scenario for my Class 33 (because for some reason it gets excluded from any Railtour services), but the whole interface of setting up a scenario is just annoying, and that's without me setting up any AI. What's the point of uncoupling loco DLCs from route DLCs, if there's no consist editor and no ability to use them on Timetable mode? I know I'll be more careful buying a loco DLC limited to just one route, due to my experiences (or rather, lack of experience) with my Class 33...
I think the loco dlcs (tsw3 exclusive) still layer/sub onto the timetables on routes where appropriate.
How about Dispolok and MRCE BR182 with IC coaches and the Laaers 560s that way we can run the 03:01 Lohr to Aschaffenburg Trip on Main Spessart Bahn which is EN420 Wien/Innsbruck Dusseldorf Hbf. Southbound from Koln Eastbound from Aschaffenburg 01:01 Lohr 01:21 EN421 Dusseldorf Hbf platforms 19 & 20 to Innsbruck Hbf/Wien Hbf
There aren't a lot of 'appropiate' routes for quite a few trains. Quite a few loco DLCs are very limited in what you can do with them. DTGs uncoupling of loco DLCs from route DLCs sounds better than it really is. I'll ask again; what will you do with your Acela when you don't own Boston-Providence?
