Re: Victory Works

Nope! The scenarios are quite a big problem in fact. As DTG only allow scenarios for 1 route to come with any loco add-on it creates a problem when you have 10+ liveries from 5 different countries and 3 different time periods! In honesty I think we will probably go with a demo scenario and leave it...

Re: EE 3B Battery Loco?

If anything I've come nowhere near depleting the battery yet (including on the workshop scenarios) and I have been trying to do so (trying to set the brakes on fire too) to appreciate the effects, so i really wouldn't worry about it!

Re: Victory Works

I'll be honest and say that I'm quite happy making TS locos as long as it, along with other work, pays the bills. To date all my locos have sold pretty evenly and have enabled me to survive making 4 a year (this year was a little different due to the work with DTG on 50's Riviera). If the S160 sell...

Re: New Scenarios for Crouch Valley 3

Also, although I have little time for route improvement are there any issues that need correcting in a patch? TBH it's been a bit since I have played, but I do recall that some of the curves around the sidings @ Colchester are mega sharp and I have derailed sometimes on them even at dead slow paces.

Re: BR (LNER) Peppercorn K1 Released!

Having an interesting thing going on now on a run along the WHL... I'm stopped in a station, neither of the taps are open (and I have opened them fully and closed them to ensure this) and yet my tender is losing a gallon every 10 or 20 seconds or so. Is this intentional to represent leaks of some k...

Re: BR (LNER) Peppercorn K1 Released!

Hey guys, Just wondering if others are really struggling keep up pressure with this in second valve? Fire mass seems ok, as I try to keep it around 1150 lbs on West highland extension. Engine is really worked hard up the steep grades, and can't maintain pressure when driving hard as needed to get u...

Re: BR (LNER) Peppercorn K1 Released!

This is excellent (but I expected nothing else!) Query re: brakes (I think this will make the third time I have asked you a question about brakes on one of your locos :D ) Is there a large ejector and if so where is it? Also a generic feature request for any future loco (since I am almost certainly ...

I just played with the updated version and still had the problem, I'm afraid.

Would a save game file, which I have, be useful?

Re: DP Simulation Scenario Packs - Freeware.

Did you miss the . out of that figure? This forum is full of folk who complain that 20 quid is too much for a route, I can't see many forking out 150 quid for a reskin. There certainly are people out there that will pay figures like that for bespoke scenarios (in the plural) but they certainly don'...

Re: DP Simulation Scenario Packs - Freeware.

Might I make a suggestion? Introduce a "paid suggestion" system whereby donors for non-minute sums (I'm thinking around £150) can have a bespoke scenario /reskin / etc created to their (hopefully fairly loose) requirements but with the proviso that it is released as freeware as well. This should be ...

Re: Fastline Simulation announce VEA vans

Two points:

1. Please could you add an "order comments" box to your checkout, as it is where I would have put point 2 rather than post in this thread otherwise
2. £3.50? £2.92 after tax?!? You're nuts, should be £5.99 at the very least!
