Hi Everybody.
Just found this on Youtube.Its a clip of A Pendo running on NWM.I checked on Trainsimcentral to see if The Pendo had been released in case I missed it on here but unfortunately No Joy.
Is this a Test Video:?:

Nice a brand new video I hadnt even seen! Well done Eifion :-P You have brought a surprise to the community!

Thanks for telling us and it's looking great as usual! :!:

Can't wait till the release!

:shock: Im surprised at how well the Braking is on that! Especially since they hit the brakes on 3 from 125mph and you just got straight into Norton on the platform! :shock: Perfect sounds as well!!!

Congratulations! To whom it may concern :o

Tis not Norton, tis Nuthurst! ;)

Looks brilliant, and that braking was something else

I wouldn't call the braking amazing. HST could do it far quicker. (Well, I could ;)) Acceleration is impressive and a far slower exit from Radley :(

Looks more realistic mind.

I guess it was slower out of Radley Junction, because of the 40 mph PSR?
Having said that, i'm always guilty of thrashing the Voyager out of Maybank at full throttle, and closing it a minute after, due to the 40 psr.

I loved the Pendo on BVE4- It was really good!

I can't wait to drive it myself.. I especially liked the door sounds/ driver-TM beeps, because it made me feel like i was actually on a Pendo.

Any estimate for release?

The 40mph PSR already exists in the current game, just it's released earlier into 125mph.

An old cheat to simulate tilt is to narrow the track gauge. Since the superelevation (the height the outside rail is raised by) stays the same, the cant (banking) angle increases. The problem is though that real tilt varies depending on speed (that's the whole point, you can just increase the cant, but it's a problem for trains travelling below line speed or stopping, wheras tilt allows all trains to run at nearer optimum cant), wheras this method gives the same cant regardless of speed, so if you stop on a sharp, high speed curve, you will still be fully tilted (would be fine for the APT, which had a habbit of hard over tilt failures).

I can't wait for this to be released :smile:

Is there a specific day within the next week when it is going to be given to "sensible drivers" like me, to speed along with?
