      Light pacific is a lot of fun.

      wootang

      as someone who has all the packs

      the bullied pacifics are brilliant although it goes by what you prefer

      up the junction is mainly shunting

  2. class 101 and 57 add on packs bought scenario ideas are bubbleing!

  3. there and back again finished :) on to my next scenario!

  4. Afternoon all my second scenario in my series of railworks creations is called corporate colours. Set in 1992 when NSE and Intercity were in power your in charge of a semi fast NSE loco hauled train from Exeter st Davids to Bridgwater stopping at taunton only the scenario starts with a 3 minute wait at Exeter to let An HST get some space ahead of you - there are two arrivals into the station in front of you, another HST and a 166 unit also as the HST set slides past you a 166 set sneaks up behind you in the next platform. When you do get going your chasing yellows for a while, ive deliberately put lots of AI coming in the opposite direction to keeps things interesting mostly its made up of 166 units but there are also a few HST's another loco hauled NSE service and a short freight. A fair bit longer than my first scenario but still good fun Corporate Colours Vehicle: NSE 47 + 5 NSe MK"'s Route: Bristol-Exeter Add On Packs Used: Class 31 + NSE Class 47 + HST set + Bristol Exeter the scenario starts with a 3 minute wait at Exeter to let An HST get some space ahead of you - there are two arrivals into the station in front of you, another HST and a 166 unit also as the HST set slides past you a 166 set sneaks up behind you in the next platform. When you do get going your chasing yellows for a while, ive deliberately put lots of AI coming in the opposite direction to keeps things interesting mostly its made up of 166 units but there are also a few HST's another loco hauled NSE service and a short freight. A fair bit longer than my first scenario but still good fun at exeter with a 166 sneaking up in the next platform passing an intercity on route to Taunton next up should be there and back again
  5. evening all this is my first blog entry covering the scenarios im making for Railworks 3 - im hoping that when steamworkshop comes to the game i can upload them for other people to enjoy ill be posting details of the scenarios when i finish them. ive been using google and rmweb for research, but i must stress these scenarios are not prototypical there for fun! so they have lots of traffic and tend to give more of a fun experience rather than realistic. Ive made scenarios before but not for a while so i thought id do something simply to break back in to scenario creation Back To Basics Vehicle: Southern 3 car 377 Route: London Brighton Add On Packs Used: London-Brighton + Settle-Carsile Back to basics see's you driving a Southern 3 car 377 from London Road over to Brighton nice and simple! As you load passengers at London Road another 3 car 377 approaches on the way to Lewes, as you get over the bridge a host of 377 units are stabled in the sidings become visible, and as you roll through Montipeller junction the Route 66 Railtour slinks by. finally you pull into Platform 8 and open your doors Job Done! as you can tell a very simple scenario with a bit of traffic - the route 66 tour features in all my modern scenarios as a sort of 'Easter Egg' Pulling into Platform 8 my next scenario is Corporate Colours and i should be able to post that in a few days
  6. wcml why are you such a pain to route trains on?

      awesome will try to get a look at the spitfire then

  8. afternoon all! with the drawers still in progress ive moved onto something a bit more 'space saving' for those of you who don't know there is a game/rail simulator out there called railworks, in the game there are several different routes and engines for you to experience, best of all is the scenario editor. with this tool you can select any route and any Loco, create a scenario to complete and place as much AI as you want. Ive been playing around with it and loosely followed a tutorial i found online ive made two and a half scenarios so far: Back to Basics - drive a 377 EMU from London Road to Brighton Corporate Colours - drive a NSE 47 from Exeter to Bridgwater calling at Taunton in the height of summer Sunshine Coast - drive an 8 car 377 from London Victoria to Haywards Heath calling at Clapham, East Croydon, and Gatwick - although this is only 25% done as there is a fault with the software i have a few more in the pipeline including a four part scenario spread across 3 different routes and another that i break down in to parts too i am hoping to either distribute these scenarios on Pirate bay using the package manager or wait until steam releases its workshop so i can share them there throughout my modern scenarios there is a reacurring theme (well train) but you will have to wait for that im hoping to put more details up soon regards - Ash

  11. should upgrade my pc to 8GB Ram for £12 or go the whole hog and get 16GB for £80?

    1. Horsetan

      Horsetan

      How about just paying £24 for two lots of 8Gb? Or have I missed something here?

    2. beast66606

      beast66606

      Depends on how many slots the motherboard has.

       

      The answer to wb will depend on what is being run on the PC, 8GB may well be enough.

      Pfft, may have a Turbo but it's still front wheel drive and as such, can't be classed as a REAL Escort.

    3. Trainshed Terry

      Trainshed Terry

      No I would like a Escort Cozzee.

    4. Jason T

      Jason T

      Ah, but a Cosworth drives the rear wheels (as well as the front...) so that counts :)

      I'd have a Mk1 RS1600 over a Cosworth any day

      I think a suitable Skaledale building might suffice.
