      The second best way is to look for DTM on any Train Sim dlc page. Those dlcs you absolutely avoid unless there are enhancements for them or they're fixed. This guy just needs to stop making dlcs period and let the professionals make them because clearly he's not fit for making high quality stuff. When I saw the P40DC dlc on the Steam store, I was thinking "Oh hell yeah, this is going to be fucking epic". Then I saw "DTM" as the devs. I was hesitant at first, but if it's a Pro Range, there's no way DTM could fuck anything up. I only say that because I was never able to get the UP U50 which looked really good in the screenshots and I only wanted that dlc for the freight and caboose anyway. Then, when I saw the light color of the P40DC's lights in the screenshots, I already knew this dlc was gonna flop. I had it in my cart too. The first thing our friend here picked on, that dlc was out my cart instantly. I swapped it for another pro range loco that's actually worth buying.
      I honestly almost feel bad for the guy, but I can't have sympathy for him until he realizes that the crap he releases is shit and needs to improve in terms of quality. I'll most likely get the P40DC, but only for the stock, the loco I won't even touch until there are enhancements for it. I get that locos are loud bitches, but NS GP38-2 High Hoods are quiet as hell if they're not moving. Their engines are almost dead silent.

    Hey SP. Yet another great video, and one that saved me $20. I agree with most everything you said. The only thing I take issue with is that the fading on the DTM is actually more accurate then the freeware loco. I sent you a picture of the actual locomotives with that livery, and you can clearly see a dot pattern of fading colors. "Holy purple wheels Batman"! Still LMAO over that one.

    I bought the DTM P40DC this morning, and it's incredibly loud. A bunch of stuff seemed off to me, but this is the first time I've seen a P40 done for Train Simulator, so I went ahead and got it. I purchased the pack mainly for the rolling stock, including the Material Handling Car (MHC) and the Superliner II series cars. I guess I wanted to see how it turned out. Overall, it gets maybe a 5-7 out of 10 for me.

Your attention looking at detail is Honestly what makes your Video's so Dam good to watch as nothing passes you without finding something Wrong which I love, it keeps me coming back for more every video you post, that and the funny humor wisecracks 😂Keep It Great Job. I can't get that sound of Air leaking out of my head when in cab horrible sounding, I was laughing sometimes you were when looking at the control brown ware & tare looking but the metal silver plate where the horn and bell & sand buttons look New. 😂Nice looking toggle switch & seats but everything else looks like ass. There's a horn I must have gone deaf because I don't hear anything besides Air. That is insane how far away you can hear that unit just sitting. For how bright those Lights are you should have tested it at night and seen if it made it look daylight or if they were weak looking.

    Thanks for the review. :) Honest but needed. I agree that I'd expect better in 2023.
    To be fair, many of your sound issues are core issues, I notice them in various ways as well. For a year or two sound cuts out binary now, station ambience and most else, and you use zoom, so you are actually triggering it, when between the cars. Some of it is new to me, like when the horn and engine sound is coming from behind, it's not in the video, maybe you have a surround setup?
    By the way, the engine sound is the same as every Kuju GE - ES44AC, P30CH, SP 9-44CW...

    Out of sheer curiosity, I still follow DTM on Facebook, but I haven't bought anything from him in ages, so this bad reputation he's now got is new to me. If what a lot of commenters have said here is anything to go by, I won't get this P40DC myself.

    My pitch of a Moffat Tunnel Subdivision Route (set in the early-mid 1990s) in the game features a built-in California Zephyr set. This includes a phase III P40DC that’s closer to the classic RSC P42DC, paired with some phase III MHC cars, a phase III baggage car, and two superliner sets; one phase III and the other phase IV which includes a transition car.
    I’m not a content creator for Railworks, but I’m doing some research to pitch an idea that could have massive potential, especially a better P40DC on Steam.

    That pulled stream must've been a disaster for even DTG to take it down compared to their usual fumbling and stumbling around issues. As for a new build and new software it looks just as bland and outdated as the rest of what DTM does. I'd like to know what makes it "Pro" though as what was shown isn't that complex compared to what's available already 🤷‍♂️

  • @Smokebox
    @Smokebox ปีที่แล้ว +4

    The scripts were not broken. The fella doing the stream appears to have had insufficient practice beforehand and was moving the throttle/dynamic brake handle in the wrong direction. I wrote the script. It has no errors in it. The script error described in one of the review streams pertains to one of the items of rolling stock, not the locomotive.
