As the title says. I have a rather old gaming pc (desktop) with a nvidia gtx 650 ti Graka in it. The cpu is an i5 3,4ghz. 16gb ram.

This is a pretty underspecced system. But yet it has served me ok, it has not been terrible. But i do have quite a few freezes (not just Nachladerückeln) and stutters that are not low fps.

So i was thinking, if a Graka upgrade would be worth it. I am looking to buy used, and i am not in the market for a new pc at the moment. I only use my pc for TS.

I am aware that the cpu is limiting my fps, but as i said it is not too bad, as long as i keep faax etc at low settings.

What would be the minimum Nvidia card for me to experience a smoother TS experience?

Ghosttrain That’s pretty cool too.

Does that mean that Rendsburg-Kiel is included in the route?

Just drove the Regensburg - Ingolstadt QD. I must say that i find this offering from RSSLO really good. In TS (or any simulation) you have to make believe, and i actually found it convincing. They simply get better with each route. There were also some new assets that i hadn’t seen before. Add to that, i just love Germany when the landscape is hills, like much of this route. And in that respect, i really did feel at home in this route. One thing though. Is it just me, or is it like they put a bit more work into their German routes than the Austrian?

Technically speaking: Signals seem to be on the mark. Tracks are smooth to drive, vegetation is again getting better.

So this one is a clear winner for me.

manku All you have to do is look at the RSSLO homepage and see what vehicles are included. The BR151 is not one of them. It’s from the ELAP.

You can change the camerawiews that are available frome the arrow keys. Takes some knowledge and experience to do so though.

xtrame90 There is already a utillity for Train Simulator called Ts Tools (formerly known as RW Tools), it’s used by thousands of TS users. So you might want to reconsider the name of your utillity. It is not fair to the creator of TS Tools, and it will create confusion too.

tom87 Well in TS you have to make believe. It is after all a simulation. Drive to Ingolstadt in TS but pretend it’s not the end of the drive. Use your illusions

When we drive to Hausach, we also have to pretend it’s not the end. But it’s still a good TS ride.

wittjoker Then you are fairly wrongly convinced, since you have to.

wittjoker Watch this Führerstandmitfahrt.

Just before 1:30 the driver passes two Vorsignalwiederholern (and then passes the main signal immidiatly after). Both Wiederholern are acknowledged. You can’t miss the pzb beep.

You can wait to the sifa alarm sounds before canceling it. You have 4 seconds after it sounds. Some German traindrivers do that, while others prefer to cancel it as soon as it lights up which is two (i think) seconds before the alarm sounds. So just go by your preference.

jpvdveer Well there is absolutely no reason to look after magnets. Or rather, you have to acknowledge signals not magnets.

Example: distant signal repeaters (Vorsignaleiederholer). They rarely have magnets, but if they show a restriction (expect stop, or below 100) you STILL have to acknowledge.

Same with speed reduction warning signs (yellow triangles) below 100. It does NOT matter if it has magnets or not. You still have to acknowledge.

In short. Anything that warns of anything from stop to below 100kmh MUST be acknowledged. Magnets does not even come into play in this rule.

wittjoker You only have to acknowledge warnings of speeds under 100km/h. Still very simple though.

A little reminder to as all, that we all inhabit the same globe.

Autobuy for me.

Perhaps edit the thread title to include Regensburg - Ingolstadt.

I found a way to increase the distance that you can read the Ks signals. For me this was my greatest annoyance of the route (after DTG finally updated it).

Finally i am not struggling to read the next signal, and sometimes hitting the brakecurve too late on the sections where you can go above 150kmh.

As long as it doesn’t look empty from the Führerstand, then it’s fine.

Very late to the table here. Nice work Amisia

If i could wish one small thing, and this is only nitpicking, it would be more distant terrain south of Rosenheim. One of the fantastic things of the “Voralpraum” is how the mountains reall stand in the distance.

Has snyone tried indtalling the extension on the Kiel Lübeck Deluxe upgrade? Gehts?

The lightglow files in this pack, can be used to enhance signals on dtg/rsc routes too. It particularly enhances playability on routes ehere it was hard to read the signal until you were really close to the signal. With this upgrade, a signal is visible 1-1,5 km distance.

Copy the lightglow files into the routes lightglow folder. Rename the imported files so they follow the same nameconventiin.

StS YES! That worked! Copying in the files and renaming them did it. Now the KS signals are visible at the proper distance. It has to be fone on a route to route basis, i just updated the Regensburg Nürnberg route.

Two observations after updating the Lightglow files on all DTG routes (except the ones using Schuster signals). The glow of the yellow lights is now correct. And it does a LOT of difference to playability, seeing the signals at longer distance. On Frankfurt Koblenz i no longer get caught (and zwangsed) by signals on the faster sections.

Thanks. 👍👍👍👍

AbsolutesChaoz Just letting you know that your upgrade also can be used to better the driving experience on DTG routes.

I had a look in the .bin files of the DTG ks signals (Regensburg Nürenberg) but i honestly would not know where to start
