Planning to buy my first train sim on Steam.

Upvotes

Any thoughts on ZUSI 3? It is currently on top of my list..2nd is Running Train (downside is that it is only focused on Japan's railway network i think)..I am looking for max realism like 1:1 where I can learn German standards in signals, great physics, etc. because I am planning to take an Ausbildung in Germany as a train driver.

Bom estive testando algumas rotas openBVE e fico me perguntando, porque a versão de PC mesmo com mais recursos obviamente, não entrega essa qualidade de luz e sombra que o HMMSIM legacy entrega,

Zuiki Mascon on MacOS + GeForce NOW?

1 Upvotes

Just bought Running Train a few days ago and I'm absolutely hooked. I need myself a train controller so I can leave my eye off the bottom left corner and focus on what's in front of me. :-) Anyone found success using the Zuiki Mascon controller on MacOS + GeForce NOW?

Trainz TS2022 Missing Switches

1 Upvotes

Apologies if this isn't the place for this but the Steam forums weren't much help. I am currently trying to fix some routes for Trainz 2022, I am having issues with missing switches and missing switch points on several Eastern European routes. I have tried updating the associated packages and dependencies, uninstalling and reinstalling affected routes, and messing with the individual files but nothing has fixed the issue. How do I fix this? Affected routes listed below.

Missing Switches Entirely, red exclamation point on route selection menu:

Andrushivka - Vinnitsa UZ

Belarusian Woodland

Balezino - Mosti

Occasional Missing Switch Points:

Beloreck - South Ural Mountains

317301 at Farringdon in LTSRail livery (ex. Network SouthEast with green stripe) and 317324 in exNSE with WAGN prism decals)

In the early 2000s these units were allocated to Hornsey depot and were most often seen on WAGN services from both Kings Cross and Liverpool Street, but could occasionally be found filling in on Thameslink services between Moorgate and Bedford.

Hey guys, my friends and I are looking for a game where one can drive the train while the others are on the passengers side, like controlling tickets for exemple. Do you know if such games/sims exist?

Feedback needed + New Train Sim Steam Page

Thumbnail

18 Upvotes

Hi there!

You may have seen some of it here, since I've been asking a lot for your feedback and support on our last playtest not so long ago, but I need your help again!

Most of you are probably aware, but Steam is hosting the Steam Train Fest right now, and for the event, we've officially announced our new project, Manifest Unknown.

It's a Narratively-Driven Train Sim focusing on options. If you don't care about the story, we'll have options to opt out, too. Today I'd like your take on our page. We haven't focused on the Train community before, and I'd like to know what could be improved and clarified. Is there anything missing from your point of view?

https://store.steampowered.com/app/4780960/Manifest_Unknown/

We have a visual showcase (aka a short trailer :P) on the page if you want a closer look.

Of course, if you like what you see, we'll gladly take the Wishlist since it's really helpful for visibility, but even if it's not your jam, feedback would be amazing!

Thank you so much for your time, and take care!

Are y'all really spending £100+ on a single scenario?

8 Upvotes

I've been looking around on Alan Thomson Sim for "free" routes and scenarios to enjoy - each one seems to have about £100 of additional dependencies on top of the routes I already own.

Coming from flight simulation, which is already a bit mad for pricing, this seems a little crazy. Is that just the price of the hobby? Can I find scenarios that just use free repaints of existing stock rather than study level units for populating the track with AI?

SimRail What's your favorite train in SimRail and why?

9 Upvotes

Which type or even which specific train number? Because of sound, look, complexity of driving, cabin interior, the real life history of the train, etc.? The more specific, the better! (Hype me up)

I’m looking for the old Thomas & Friends: Engine Activities app for iPad. I already have the IPA, but it only contains Pop Goes Thomas and Creaky Cranky. I’m looking for the downloaded activity packs or an old iTunes backup from a device that had all the activities installed

Good afternoon! I finally managed to get a Mascon Pro from a Yahoo auction. They're putting several up for sale now, some even with the complete package and screen included. I only managed to get the Mascon and its horn pedal. Later, on my trip to Japan, I bought the MTC controller with all the reels they released with different speeds and brakes. I tested it on Densha, Traincrew, Running, and on Ongakugan's native games, Train Simulator for PS2, and JREAST for Steam.
