Upcoming Release Niddertalbahn: Bad Vilbel–stockheim Coming Soon!

Okay- based on streams, my only complaint is the 2D sugarbeet texture in the gondolas. Otherwise- I honestly can't find anything.

That has to be unprecedented

Also- it seems TSG has figured out how to increase draw distance. It's really stupendous.

 

Can you please specify what you expect (which textures exactly, which assets exactly ... what should it look like other that it does now). All texture work is done from scratch for modern PBR and UE4 workflow of course. Telling us we should work with a not existing standard does not help. DTG uses standard UE4 PBR workflow too. We used just fresh and different textures and ideas.

 

Yes it is very slow, think there's an update in there too. Off to play some Fallout 4 in the meantime and will check back later.

 

I’m believe there is only one individual criticizing the textures in this thread, everybody else has been very appreciative of the great work you’ve done. I personally think it looks gorgeous, almost like a different next-gen game because of all the details. Will likely be purchasing the DLC later today.

Regarding the sugar beet texture somebody else mentioned, I believe this is an in-game limitation. The loaded coal wagon textures look similar. Looks perfectly fine in my opinion considering people rarely look inside.

 

if you wish just take notes,
if you like decide by your self if you want to improve, change or do on your own way. thats all fine, all we can do is look in to it and inspire you, and its all up to you. so please remind its all feedback.
And to proof im not an guy which just shout and make bad comments i took some time to make small examples.

The ballast looks flat, do you have an ao mapping on it and a good heightmap ? what im missing is the real height and the light which doesnt break on the stones, left you see dtg style, middle is yours and for you i made an example from one of my own gravel textures, for your info , thats unity where i placed my gravel, i dont have unreal up and running here right now. but also on my one you can see that it clear break the light, i played with the metal to make it a little more clear to the eyes.

second i show why i call the texture work flat, you try to simulate some dirt effect which is great because it fits this train, when you look to the cabin the reflection wash out and actually the dirt reflect oposite, black dirt doesnt reflect more than a light color . to be fair i show you again on the right my example, i just made it fast for you so you can see that i know what i missing when you look to my quick texture work you see dept on the painting and reflection difference on the scratches as i simulate your dirt on the plane, also the wood doesnt look that flat, there is no real difference in wood which connect with the metal.

 

This route looks great, you need to make more.

For feedback purposes:
The power/rpm indicator is missing on RB7074 (timetable mode, PC through Xbox app).

Also autumn at dusk in the rain is a great showcase of this route imo.

 

Really enjoying the route thus far.

Not sure if I am missing something or if a bug but found sifa and pzb valves but only seem to work to the cab that's closest to them. The other end of the train, nothing

What trick am I missing?

 

It's a known bug on the console Version. You could plug in a keyboard and use 'ctrl + ent' and 'shift + ent' to turn them on.

 

Thanks for the reply. Saves me hunting high and low for a way to activate it.
