TS2015 coming on 18 September

Drag driver

Quite simply, the drag driver tool enables a scenario writer to click on the driver icon on one loco within the scenario editor and drag it across to a different loco. All instructions applied to the original loco will be carried over to the new one. This is very useful if you need to swap locos for any reason.

I like this a lot. Doesn't replace RW-Tools but complements it. Easier to use for newbies too.

I look forward to seeing some interesting scenarios on Steam Workshop in the upcoming months.

The new ts2015 trailer:

TS academy will be interesting.

Hype is hype. Where do they find their crummy soundtrack noise (can't bring myself to call it music)?

Remember when they used part of Die Fledermaus for the RW2 trailer?

If you can get past the glitz and lack of substance, have a look at the skies / clouds. They either have not yet introduced the new hyped sky system or nothing has changed and the clouds are still shooting by at 200 mph.

You would think they might have addressed this under 4 weeks out...

Kool for the free update the 3 routes will not be included correct?

For the last time....NO.

For those unlike me who don't even know how to use the blueprint editor these updates announced today might come in handy. http://www.engine-driver.com/article/show/4807/ts2015-technical-upgrades-blueprint-editor

Ok as long as the free update don't overwrite the 3rd party Routes and the Routes That I made I am good to go.I know to backup the Railworks Main Folder

So I was just reading the engine driver article about the upcoming Fort William to Malliag route. Something that caught my attention was this;"Snowploughs are fitted automatically depending on season, and interact realistically with the new snowdrifts, punching through the snow and leaving clear rails behind." I wonder if this is just hype, or if its talking about the particle effect seen in donner pass, or if this is a whole new feature. If so I wonder if it will be exclusive to this route or if it will be included into the TS2015 update. http://www.engine-driver.com/article/sh ... ILQI1.dpuf

All the world's stock exchanges should find a way to hook up to this sight: they could increase speculation 1000000%!

[OpenRailer90]

I really hope they get rid of the "boring" menu music and return the old menu train sounds from TS2013.

[Chacal]

You can do that yourself.
Just replace the file UI_FrontEndLoop.wav in Assets\Kuju\RailSimulatorCore\Audio
Or I suggest you install Krellnt's Wagon sounds pack v3, you'll get great wagon sounds, and it replaces the funeral dirge with an engine sound.

[ColoradoRailfan]

Or by going to the Settings and switching it off.

I think that it will be exclusive to this route.
This route is being developed (for quite some time) by Thomson Interactive & Keith Ross, not by DTG.
