DCS WORLD 2.5 Caucasus: Ridin' the Rails


Ironhand

Recommended Posts

I've always enjoyed traveling by rail. This is a quick and dirty video that takes a look at the new Caucasus map from a slightly different perspective.

 

Scenes from Krasnodar Krai, the Black Sea Coast, and Georgia are included. I just uploaded it and it hasn't fully processed. Only the 360P version is available ATM:

:) Yes, I was pretty impressed at how detailed the landscape was in general. Also discovered that the rail system is fairly detailed as well. It even includes the circular rail tunnel in the real-world Tuapse River valley. Unfortunately, the sim's mesh resolution isn't sufficient for it to actually work as it does in real life. But it's there just the same which is pretty cool.

 

 

great video ironhand :) DCS: Trains :D

Nice Video...

This looks nearly like a old Train Simulator from around mid 2000, but nerveless impressive good for Flight Simulation.

The Tunnels might be Dangerous for Passengers :D

Once you have tasted Flight, you will forever walk the Earth with your Eyes turned Skyward.

:) The tunnels and trestles can be very exciting...some more so than others.

Nice video! Did anyone else notice that the wheel gauge of the trains and the track gauge doesn't match? Perhaps the track texture is based on standard gauge (1435mm/4ft 8.5"), while the VL-10 and ChME3 locomotives are russian gauge (1520mm)? I guess I'll have to set the year in the mission editor to 1945 and check if the DRG class 86 matches the rail gauge (setting the year to some time in the "steam era" actually replaces the modern(-ish) comblock rolling stock with steam locomotives, if you have the WW2 asset pack).

:) IDK if that's the issue but the mismatch was definitely noticeable. Also some of the bridges compress the spaciing between the tracks.
