    My question about Creators Club was also ignored for the second month running . It’s obviously going to be ignored like other things :mad:

    To be honest it’s better than the usual “it’s being looked by our team and a fix will comes out very soon”

    Yea, only for locos acting as gameplay (reused content) rather than a whole brand new locomotive.

    Any news on the 150/2 and the fact it's sluggish as hell?
    I know it's not supposed to be a rocket ship, but the fact it CAN'T even make the timetable is absurd

    When though, two years from now? :D Sorry, but experience with this game has taught me, to "believe it when I see it". And "what you see is what you get".

    When do you plan to patch your previous 1st patch for NEYNYT (because it didnt fix any of major issues)? And maybe the third and fourth patches are allready on schedule? ;)

    Indeed. Not only confirmed but already in the game. Very short and scenery only but it is there. Of course there is also a very short section of the ECML you can (and do) drive on in TSW, further north.

    Remind me, what exact issues are you thinking about? Happy to have a look at that then. :)

    We've spend some time on the Class 150/2 lately (same goes for some other, "old" addons), will share more details once we know when the updates are releasing.

    Hi Jasper,

    Thank you for the reply, there are a couple of threads with the full details but in summary -

    • Rain not showing on windscreens while driving
    • Neutral sections causing cut of power and enforced breaking. This seems quite random in that sometimes it doesn’t happen but regularly does and has only happened since the patch that added the NS signage
    • In timetable mode if you want to stay in control of the service after you have completed the first selected service, TMS announcement does not recognise the new destination, next station or arrive at
    • TMS Announcement does not recognise destinations on Alloa & Dunblane services
    • Announcements - Final destination(Waverley & QS) isnt recognised in This Is announcement
    • PIS doesn’t show correct stations for Alloa & Dunblane services, goes from the final drivable station straight to final Destination
    • Platform PIS cuts off Edinburgh Waverley
    • Timetable - The last service in the game for E&G is 21:44 at either end, but this should be 23:45(44 service start) from both? Adding an additional 4 services in either direction.

      As an aside the rush hour services that should stop at Lenzie & Bishopbriggs, instead of Linlithgow & Croy aren’t set correctly and just all stop at Linlithgow & Croy. The stopping pattern on services on the hour and half past the hour from Glasgow & Edinburgh between 7:30 & 9:30 in the morning and between 16:30 & 18:30 in the evening (with the additional23:15 from Edinburgh) should be Lenzie, Bishopbriggs, Falkirk High, Haymarketand vice versa

    This route is close to being very good, above will pretty much polish it off. Thanks for responding.

    Now this is interesting, but I want to check something...

    Are you saying the 700 will, like the Acela, be a separate loco? Or will it be part of a new route?

    I would expect it to be a standalone loco DLC. Then in the future we may see another 700/x number on another route.

    Should that be Dunblane instead of Bridge of Allan?

    You can take the 700 on the BML in scenario planner, but it should be layering on the BML ( That's if u have new gen and The BML Route itself)

    No it won’t be a layer at all for both generations.

    Dtg has said all loco dlcs in tsw3 will be decoupled from their route, so you'll no longer need the base route to use the 700.

    What are the benefits of creating an Add-on Manager for PC and by how much do those benefits outweigh the resources being invested in it?

    The point is we didn't know for sure whether the 700 being released in the summer is as part of a route DLC, or whether it is a loco DLC, and JD has said it would be like the Acela, so it will be a loco DLC if so, so not any hint about the big summer release.

    Small memory optimizations and slightly better performance I guess. Probably more beneficial for lower end systems but the benefits are extremely minimal compared to playstation or xbox

    It's on the roadmap as a loco dlc.

    So what are we to make of questions on this thread that get ignored each month? Is it that DTG don’t have a clue to the answer or that the answer is not what we want to hear so ignore the question. seriously they obviously go through the thread , how hard would it be to give a short reply . It may surprise you DTG JD but we are your paying and loyal customers.

    i doubt this would be included but is there any chance of seeing AI 700 really late at night at Ashford as seen when they were delivered? it’d just be a cool nifty thing to look out for

    What happened to the red light issues, why have they disappeared from the roadmap?
    In March, you said that the outstanding red light issues would be handled on a case-by-case basis.
    I notice that you kept derailing improvements and Save Game improvements on the roadmap, but nothing about red light issues.
    Do you still stand by your "80 to 85 percent" estimate from last roadmap stream? Because the feedback thread is filled with issues, on many routes.

    But you would have to remove the static freight trains on the East Coast mainline.

    "But you would have to remove the static freight trains on the East Coast mainline."

    Don't think they are on the section that comes from the tunnel that goes to St Pancras lower platforms.

    Not on the midland mainline section, but the tracks leading in the kings Cross has a freight train where thamslink trains go.
