High Iron Simulations Thread.

I consider myself a 'US trains normie' and watching the previews I saw things like the box at the end of the train increasing its number but not the box in the cab, had no idea what it was and the train was still drivable.

The colours look like colours, they're not blurry as heck like they've been through a fire.

The sounds sounds like a diesel loco and nice to someone who plays *mostly* uk stuff

It was a reskin apparently of an existing route, sand patch iirc, but I have the SD70ace and the ES44 so this is different enough from them for me and as for cab internal stuff, I'm a mid 30s person from Australia, I have less than zero idea of the Sante Fe in the 90's. I honestly only started seeing things were wrong after perusing the forums and seeing this post.

One problem I can see is that while I'm not what most would consider a full 'normie' - I engage with the forums, discord and upload TSW to YouTube - I still know less than nothing about US locos, and pointing out things I thought were wrong or bugs in the past on UK stuff usually results in "what do you know, your an Australian" (not from the forums, YouTube is a friendly place LOL) so as much as I'd like to point things out, I'm also afraid of getting it wrong and getting dog piled again.

It's the worst attitude to have but 'experts' making you feel like absolute LOVE because you aren't as smart as them on UK trains (it's a thing I'm still trying to let go) makes you just not care anymore about pointing stuff out. It works, it looks right, shut up and drive it and no one gets upset.

 

** I just shut up and drive - wanted to make it clear I wasn't telling other people to do so

 

Glad I could generate some interest!

I do want to stress in my video that I didn't make that stream just to bash on it. As I stated, there is some interesting stuff in this pack and there are a few things I applauded HIS for...

But this is just really unacceptable. HIS needs to do better. From the beginning I was skeptical on how well this DLC would turn out and it seems my fears were correct.
