Over here!

Great stuff NWM team!

 

[class 313]

Hmm the sounds download doesn't seem to be complete, can anyone send me the complete zip please?

 

[Techniquest]

Couldn't resist flailing to that! Downloaded it and some more stock (47, 66, 220 and 153) now, can't wait to get on that!

Ta for the heads-up, I'm off to play BVE4 for the first time this year!

Thats happened to me as well.

 

[Darandio]

Brilliant, need to have a go now! BTW, sound file has worked fine here.

 

[Pumbaa]

Yeah - Steve Green has been re-uploading it. Zip file is here until the new installer is uploaded (post 11)

 

[Techniquest]

Sounds OK to me, no announcement at Radley Junction on the 0700 run from Maybank with the 220, but I did find those that were there quite funky!

Couldn't get used to the idea of stopping at the 4-car mark (so used to the HST on that route!) so ended up 1m16s seconds late. Still, it can shift incredibly well that thing can! Just downloaded more stock (57312, 60 and 175) and will be trying out ther Pendolino drag next over the loop!

 

[class 313]

Took the 57 on the loop and it was great! Well done team.

 

[nath9425]

YES YES YES!

Great Work, love it!

 

[adamp]

Ive seen a different track texture in screenshots on the TSC forum, were these supposed to be in it?

-Adam

 

[D306]

no, that was for slicks own use

 

[mbonwick]

No. I can't remember where on the forum I saw them, but I do remember that they were for priveate use only.

 

[Jordy]

Great update, well done TSC

 

[adamp]

Ahh ok. i thought they looked brilliant! Especially on the branch line!

1400 - HST, arrived 11 minutes early

Err how :?

BVE is far more fun when you drive seriously.

 

[class 313]

1400 - HST, arrived 11 minutes early

Obviously not sticking to speed limits!

That Pendo drag is surprisingly enjoyable, but it's a job to get the set up to speed! And those single ambers got on my nerves, I kept expecting a red to be around the next bend! Managed an on-time arrival though, so overall well chuffed.

More BVE'ing to be done at some point tonight or during the weekend!

Whitminster-Riverside in a 150 with high detail OLE. Arrived 0:00:01 early

Welcome to becoming a real driver!

(Well you gotta admit, does make it all the more real...)

Hi Res 17:46 150 Service Maybank - Radley Junction Via Loop...

Subbed the 150 for a 144 hock: Run 3 minutes late all the way from Whitminster.

 

[Techniquest]

Would have been better if I wasn't route-learning by sight (I refuse to get the maps, I want to learn it from experience), but I know better for next time!

 

[Coxster]

And those single ambers...

Yellows.

 

[EE Type 3]

Top stuff

Think I'll take the logs up and over the loop

 

[P156KWJ]

Yellows.

of course, you're trainee guard now. I understand

 

[AlexS]

He's not wrong or being pedantic.

There are very few exceptions for various indicators but as a general rule we do not have 'amber' signals on the railway.

Yellow
Green
Yellow
Red

 

[Coxster]

of course, you're trainee guard now. I understand

Don't even get me started on the 'single yellow = caution' or 'double yellow = preliminary caution' business

Well, I say single yellow = caution. Slightly different when you're on absolute block, but again - don't get me started. I've only just got my head around all that myself!

I never knew you could get yellows on Ground Position Light Signals (leading onto a mainline) either until the other day. It's a confusing world out there!

 

[devon_metro]

All you ticket checking and door closing lot need to know is whether the signal is on or off, or are you no longer allowed to give the tip on cautionary aspects :mrgreen:
