Question about content in 2016

I'll put on my pin-stripped cover all's with matching engineers hat and fire up a run to Cheyanne this afternoon to check it out

[buzz456]

There is all kinds of houses vehicles and rocks that weren't there before also.

Yeah I forgot to mention that. It seemed more urban.

There is a new bug. I didn't realize at first, that my fps fell through the floor because the ES44s cab lights are on when a scenario starts.

I didn't notice they were on. I wouldn't exactly call that a bug. So turn them off.

I don't know who made the GTEL but this thing is just a crazy good job.

Doors open can be seen from both inside and out.

Yes the in cab graphics look very sharp and nice.

I do turn them off, but It catches a person off guard.
I'll have to check again, maybe it was the scenario I was driving.

He said he did not do the shapes.

So it was only the physics?

People who had the problem of not being able to buy TS2016 because you already had it myself included only need to scroll down the page a bit and click on Train Simulator 2016 Steam Edition to buy. When I now scroll down and click on buy of TS2016 SE it says I now own everything in this pack.

How's that again? Not exactly. After I clicked on the buy tab, an added to cart message appeared with a note attached. The note reads as follows:

Train Simulator 2016: Steam Edition: According to our records, you already own one or more of the items included in this package on Steam.
If purchasing for yourself, you will not receive an extra copy of:
Train Simulator 2016
Train Simulator: Sherman Hill Route Add-On
Train Simulator: Norfolk Southern Coal District Route Add-On
Train Simulator: West Rhine: Cologne - Koblenz Route Add-On

So that's what I'm not getting: no mention of what I am getting, which is probably nothing. Anyway, RSC is doing its best to quash this particular batch of anxiety on its facebook pages by promising over and over and over that they're working with Valve and Steam to allow us to spend money for what they seem to have given us for free already. Yes, I know that the last statement is not quite right, but I'm going to hold my breath until I turn blue or this muddle (which is exactly the same muddle that occurred during the 2014-2015 transition, but who at RSC, Valve, or Steam remembers that?) goes away.

What would all of us do with our time if this kind of nonsense didn't infinitely repeat itself?

P.s.: So far, I've only looked at Sherman Hill and at least the weather looks different: simulated fog on a stormy day in addition to simulated rain, but nothing like that serious winter stuff RSC has adopted as its new trailer.

[I'm trying to disguise my grouchiness these days.]

That's right oldProf. I had the same message as you before I purchased but with the Northern Coal District not there as I didn't have it. What I did get was UP Gas Turbine, DB DR 155, Riviera Line 1950s, Northern & Southern District Coal Route and the TS2016 User Interface Overlay.

[trev123]

This is what you get when you buy TS2016. Some items you won't get if you already own them.

So it was only the physics?

Blueprint setup, physics, scripting and the brake sounds. The visuals were a collaborative effort involving people from inside and outside DTG (I don't know if I'd be violating the NDA by revealing who, so I won't, just in case, especially as the other outside people didn't get any mention in the First Look broadcast).

There is all kinds of houses vehicles and rocks that weren't there before also.

That may be, but how good are their sounds, Buzz?

They were all done by Walter so that means they are very good. He did not do the horns and bells so not so great but as you know there are approximately 20 gagillion horns in the library here.

Nothing else is like a misunderstood jest.

[buzz456]

I got it. I just wasn't sure some others would.
