Railworks America

As mentioned in a post by a DTG staff member on Steam DTG won't be doing any more routes for TSC 2024.

Is this the beginning of the end? Farm everything out to 3rd party, take their cut and concentrate on TSW and fishing. A lot of possibilities. Will they finish improvements to the core TSC game? Inquiring minds want to know.

Not sure what the point of that comment by DTG staffer was since DTG has basically been out of the business of new TSC routes since it released LIRR in July 2022.

If this is really to happen, that might mean flying the DCS aircraft again or going to Trainz.
No TSW for George.

The community will support continued development of routes and rolling stock no matter what DTG decides to do.

We have so many assets and routes, that it would take me years to get through all the scenarios as it is. However, I'm going to continue to reskin and write scenarios as long as TSC works.

DTG has been and will continue to be supportive of 3PP development and such development will continue. Much of the best TSC content has always been provided by 3PP, so not sure what has changed?

3PP meaning? That there will be more TSC routes, before the end of 2024 and afterwards?
Anyway, I read in FB that Milepost Simulationns is working in Piperstone Pass route of about 70 miles, another Montana route.

3PP = 3rd party produced.

Then I agree that third parties are providing better quality in recent products, though not all. Some need to work and provide better engine horns and flares.

May I gently remind you that nothing in this world is perfect. In any event these kinds of things are easily modified in TSC to suit you if you don't care for them?

It is exactly what I have been doing most of this year.

Have you thought about sharing them with the community?

What? I don´t ? Everything I post here are related with fixing.
Other works I will not post them here because you are too sensitive to comments that are not "nice" for the authors.
Why are you posting so many Krellnut sounds on new routes? Why don´t you leave them with the native clumsy sounds.

With the recent offerings from High Iron, Milepost One, DTM, Reppo, and Machine Rail, I wouldn't be too concerned about US content development. If I had to choose, I'd rather see DTG spend the development dollars on improving the overall TSC platform. But, that's my worth.
