Re: Anyone understand Train Sims ?
Thanks for your help in finding the keystrokes to run the trains. I'm finding it great fun but with my fairly elderly PC and graphics card some very high temperatures are being reached on long journeys!!
One thing I can't figure out. Is it possible to link the controls on my CH yoke to the sim? It would make driving locos a lot easier.

Hi Andy, I don't honestly think you can as I have a throttle quadrant which would serve nicely as accelerator and brakes as well as assigning switches for battery etc. Think it is only enabled for keyboard and games controller such as X-Box.One thing I can't figure out. Is it possible to link the controls on my CH yoke to the sim? It would make driving locos a lot easier.
Pleased to hear that you are also enjoying this sim.
Late Edit: Just found out there are ways you an use your joystick though appears a little bit too complicated for me, have linked the video for you to watch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J1hRSykvtfs

Thanks for the link Nigel. I looked at the video and the software but having spent many years in software development, then retired from it, I've had my fill of destroying my brain cells trying to make complex software work. I like a quieter, less stressful life now so I think I'll just keep using the keyboard.

Re: Anyone understand Train Sims ?
Having read this thread, I've also taken the plunge with TSW2020 and after making changes graphics wise, am fairly pleased with it.
It certainly passes the time and I'll buy some extras for it when the next batch of sales pops up.
