Train Simulator 2013

Post by grantyboy »

Hey guys,

I do apologise if this has already been posted (please delete it if it has).

I've just recently purchased Train Simulator 2013 on steam for £6.99 in their summer sale (a bargain I thought).

Anyway, here is a link if anyone else is interested, I believe the deal ends later today ---> http://store.steampowered.com/app/24010/

Thanks for that.

I've read mixed reviews but at that price I'm going to have a go at it.

Cheers

No problem. Just thought others might be interested, especially at that price.

I've since bought the 'Green and Gold HST' DLC for it too which was £1.19 I believe, nice little addon for the game even though I can't seem to find the scenarios that come with it.

Here's a couple of screenshots I've taken today too :)

Ha thanks Alex!

Well the Electrostars actually came with the steam bundle deal! Which I couldn't believe!

So this is the breakdown of what's included with the bundle. I've listed the steam price if you don't buy the bundle.
(The deal is still available with the link I've provided in my first post).

Train Simulator 2013 - £36.82
Sherman Hill Add-On - £12.49
Munich to Augsburg Add-On - £14.99
London to Brighton Add-On (This includes the Electrostars) - £12.49

So you get all of the above for £6.99 :)

I might consider buying it has anyone ever had problems with starting games in steam because it says my computer does not support directx 10 or 11 and I have directx 11 anyway

It's funny you should say that liverpool13, I had this problem the other day with a different game.

The fix, I updated the BIOS on my motherboard and now everything works as it should!

Yeah go for it Alex 8-)

Just wanted to clarify I don't work for steam :lol:

If an update is available I'd definitely go for it, 9 times out of 10 updating an outdated driver will fix problems on your PC.

Here's a link to the Nvidia drivers page ---> http://www.nvidia.co.uk/Download/index.aspx?lang=en-uk

Or if you've got AMD / ATI ---> http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/Pages/index.aspx

Both of them have autodetect if you're unsure what drivers you've got installed :)

I wouldn't know to be honest danny, best idea would be to contact steam customer support

I've had Train Simulator 2013 since Xmas when it was also on offer. This current summer sale enticed me to purchase the class 87,class 50, class 31 and class 31 add-on.

Grantboy - To use the green & gold HST i believe you might need to purchase the Great Western Main Line route add-on at £5.99.

Thanks Warbo40, I managed to get the train to work in single player free roam.

I've since purchased the Great Western Main Line Add-On DLC, and you're right, I can now use the train and the scenarios that came with it are available. This could be a dangerous game to play with all the DLC available! :lol:
