I’ll assume most will be at 1080p res, but the 1440p and 4K guys chime in too with your frame rates. How much of the route do you get in the demo? What’s the instal size?
Install is 6.36 GB, and you get one route with one player train, a two car EMU.
You get a 30 minutes section of Katowice-Warsaw mainline to learn to drive that EMU in the demo and one single scenario using the same stretch, train and station stops to try your skill.
There is a single AI freight train coming your way.
The feeling and atmosphere are obviously Polish, but the English translation is decent.
I found it difficult to manipulate the combined power/braking handle using the keyboard, and some of the in cab switches and levers with the mouse.
The train has working rear view mirrors that fold out when you open the doors, when in outside view at a platform, you can see the passengers entering and finding a seat, after first waiting for leaving passengers to clear the entrance. When the boarding passengers huddle up and don't make way, nobody leaves or enters the train ;-)
There are a few moving cars, but otherwise the virtual world is lifeless. High tension power lines have proper sag between the pylons. Plants, shrubs and trees pop, but there are many draw distance settings to try.
Not bad for starters and a free demo of the driving module, but obviously lots of work still need to be done.
No idea about frame rates, it played smooth enough, but the poor anti aliasing spoils the picture I think.
