Title: Dovetail Train Simulator
Post by: Red2112 on October 04, 2016, 02:00:36 PM

Since there´s no proper thread regarding Dovetail´s TS and I know Longknife also has a go on it, I though it would be a good Idea to start this thread and share thoughts and add-ons´with all of you.  We know that TS is at TS2017 at the moment with the official release late this year (Dec.) more like a Beta right now.  Everything seems to work ok since Railworks-3 on this new version.

Iam not very found of the offiicial locos in TS except maybe one or two (GP20) and prefer 3rd party add-ons for a more realistic ride.

Saying "Realistic" is a bit adventurous as I have never driven a train, but the intent is to show advance locos that add more then the official one´s. Some even have a "cold and dark" state.

My fav beeing the "Railtraction" OBB 2016 (Electric). I think its one of the most advance locos available. The video is in German but you can get an Idea of whats in for it...

I read about Train Sim World, which is due to be released in 2017, if I'm not wrong. I have a a few modules and jump in the cab sometimes. :)
