Dear fans,

Greetings!

It doesn't like if other game controllers are plugged in (I've got a steering wheel and 2 joysticks). My character walks backwards constantly, and the selection bar in the menus is going downwards automatically until is reaches the very bottom. This way the sim is uncontrollable - game controllers should be disabled by default, especially in the menus.

I also didn't really like having to re-learn a whole new control scheme. Not saying TS/TSW always uses the most logical keybinds, but being used to the system, I'd have preferred having the same controls.

DTG TS / TSW uses the basic controls of Microsoft Train Simulator because DTG TS (formerly Railworks) was made by some programmers who worked on the cancelled MS TS 2.

The controls in SimRail reminds me more of Run8, there you also use + and - on the numeric pad.
But I played only the first job and for did not compare the other controls (lights...) and also I played Run8 with Raildriver.

with a NVidia 3060 RTX with earlier and latest drivers the game crashes to desktop within 2 minutes of being in the cab. In some cases the computer even restarts (no BSOD though)

Niestety zawiodłem się na tej grze już wolę Maszynę lub Train Driver 2. Już tam to wszystko lepiej wygląda. Optymalizacja no leży na całej linii rozkład jazdy nie wiadomo co to jest.

Komunikaty radiowe leżą też niestety. Już boje się co się będzie działo na trybie dyżurnego ruchu. Dla mnie Train Driver 2 jest o wiele lepszy :) I ma to czego nie ma ta gra. Dla mnie fajnym aspektem byłby dynamiczny edytor który sam by wszystko robił i budował.

Myślałem że to będzie lepsza alternatywa ale jednak jak to mówią "Myślał Indyk o niedzieli a w sobotę łeb obcieli" Będę się śmiał jak wyjdą płatne DLC do tej gry. Ja się zastanawiam czy to już nie ma innych tras tylko CMK.

Very similar to the controls of Train Driver 2, Zusi 3 and Maszyna.

Demo scenariusz ma bug. Kiedy się zdecyduje jechać do tyłu, to można wyjechać z mapy.

few issues 1 being that there are so many buttons and i cant remember anything if there a way to implement a written tutorial in the pause menu so you can have a look while playing in the full game

demo camera is dodgy as F laggy too fast just isnt good

while in demo i somehow put it into emergency and then the tutorial never helped me get out so i was forced to quit game even the restart button didnt work

the very extremely deafening beep noise need to be dulled down or a warning light in place

love the train and the enviroment did not like the demo sorry but i will buy the game however game looks amazing

Well, there is tutorial available, just select correct scenario beforehand. Regarding alarm sound, that's exactly how it is in real life, you have few seconds to cancel warning (you can do it with sapce on keyboard) and then (if not cancelled), it will start making very loud noise followed by emergency braking. Warning will aways engage before semaphore and randomly during driving (dead men switch)

And finally, when emergency brakeing is activated just put throttle on neutral and then hold a button (button below guage with blue arrow on right panel next to tempomat) till the brakes release.

Gra bardzo fajna ale trzeba ulepszyć tekstury miast na lepsze oraz stworzyć bardziej realistyczne poruszanie się pasażerów ale wiem jedno macie 1 klienta na tą grę

Not impressed. I was unable to complete the tutorial as the prgm refused to acknowledge that I was clicking the required, highlighted button. I removed from my wishlist.

Very very bad performance. And a menu crash with no reason. Keyboard controls weird and a very confusing graphic menu options.
