Transport Fever 2 - Big Cities - Scenic Freight Tour
Вставка
- Опубліковано 11 вер 2024
- In this video you are riding in a Ge P42 DC locomotive. The entire video was recorded using the game Transport Fever 2 in cockpit mode. It looks best when playback quality is set to 1440p.
This video is made from one loop on a single railroad line. The time for one loop is a little over 2 hours.
There are 16 huge cities on this map with 24 profitable freight lines providing a supply network. The train you are riding on travels across all or part of every one of those lines. Since the train you are riding on is inserting itself into other tightly scheduled freight lines. You will experience a few delays. Fortunately there is usually something interesting to look at while you are waiting.
This video contains more stutter than it should and I apologize for that. Unfortunately I tend to overdo it a bit when adding things to the map.
This video uses a large number of mods. Thank you to all of the mod makers who make Transport Fever 2 a better game!
Bro turned transport fever 2 into a better city builder than cities skylines😂
Thank you! I'm glad you liked it.
The level of detail is outstanding
Thank you! Glad you liked it.
não é mais um jogo, é uma simulação de planejamento urbano
The map is so big, the pc is struggling to maintain frame rates 😄 beautiful map!
Yeah. I have a problem where I can't stop adding stuff to the map because I'm having to much fun. Hopefully I'll show a little more restraint with the next map. :)
@@General_Tso lol, don't we all? 🤣
@@General_Tso
Restraint ? what is that ? Is not part of TF2 thus no Restraint !
👀
Awesome scenery. How do you get cities to be so massive? I would love to a city so gigantic that I would need a public transit using city trains to get around quickly.
I started with a blank map. Then made all of the cities by using the built-in sandbox mod. It has a city plopper. When it is enabled there is a option under the editor tab in the plopper window that allows you to set the city size for residential/commercial/industrial. You can choose from 50 to 800. For reference I think normal cities created by the game are between 50 and 200. On this map my center city was set to 300 for all values. And the other cities where set to 200. I also manual added a bunch of buildings from mods to the large center city. Including most of the largest skyscrapers. There are a lot of really cool large buildings available as mods in the Steam Workshop. When the sandbox mod is active you can also edit the size of existing cities. So you can start a normal game and then change the cities that where created by the game it that's what you prefer.
@@General_Tso Ahh, cool. I have been wondering how people have been getting the cities so big. The maps I have been playing have just small to medium cities with miles of nothing in between.
Terrain looks so natural
Thank you!
Looks very good. One thing, trains drive too fast, and acellerate te fast. You can change that in the config, and it will look more real.
Thanks for the suggestion. I was thinking about adding track with speed limits. But that's a lot of work. Your idea would be more efficient.
you wouldn't happen to have a mod list would? Very awesome though makes me jelly over my maps I do...:)
I used somewhere around 200 mods and unfortunately I'm not aware of any way to get a list of them that I could share. Sorry about that.
@@General_Tso ok no worries thanks for the reply though..:)
Incredible map! Would love to see a passenger train pov on this map 😀
Thank you! I'm glad you like it. I am trying to do a passenger train video from this map. But the frame rates and jerkiness are even worse. So I'm trying to find a way to improve that. Unfortunately I'm not sure if it's possible.
@@General_Tso Try to capture it with fixed frames like 15 or 10 and then speed it up when editing.
@@rohrbrot4563 Thank you. I'm looking for ways to improve things so I'll definitely check that out. But wouldn't that cause the video to playback to fast? (If that's a stupid question I apologize. I only have limited knowledge of video editing.)
looks good
Thank you!
Amazing work, just the use of the P42 as a freight loco really bothers me
I selected that locomotive for a somewhat silly reason. And maybe I shouldn't have used it. But I wanted to use one of the in game diesel locomotives. And I wanted to use the one with the most pleasant sounding engine. And in my humble opinion it was the P42.
Nice vid! Can you put the savegame download link in the description? I would like to play on it too
Unfortunately this map used a massive number of mods. Some of which are not available. Including several small ones that I made myself that where never uploaded. So it would be impossible for you to get the game started. Sorry about that.
On top of the problems mentioned above. I switched track mods after I laid all of the tracks. So the tracks ended up being a weird combination of a download mod that morphed with a mod I made myself. So any new track that is laid doesn't look the same as what's already there.
@@General_Tso Understandable, thanks for the response
What recording software you use ? ❤
Я замітив "Батьківщину Мати" статую, тепер знаю, що не зря подивився відео.
I noticed the "Motherland" statue, now I know that I watched the video for a reason. 31:30
Hi. Great work! You creator this map base or its from some mod? Map generator and editing?
I created a flat blank map using the map editor. Then created everything by hand using the sandbox mod.
Could you please provide us with the list of mods you're using?
I would really love to use the elevated station that we can see in 33:06 for example.
@@andrius2254 I'm currently subscribed to over a thousand mods. And unfortunately there's no way that I know of to obtain a list of the ones used on that map. I'm not 100% certain but I think this is the mod that I used for that elevated station. steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2315563115&searchtext=elevated+station
Good looking map, but other UA-camrs make videos that can be watched in 480p with a decent quality, while yours is just blurry. What are you doing wrong?
I'm sorry to hear you are having problems. I'm not a expert at recording videos. But I did some research and tried to set things so that it looks as good as possible at higher resolutions.
I recorded it at 1440p with a very high bit rate. Maybe that has something to do with it.
When I play it back at 1440p it's crystal clear. If I use 1080p or 720p it still looks fine. Why would you want to use anything below that?
@@General_Tso I don't want to waste unnecessary bandwidth on my mobile network.
When I make a video like this. I've been concentrating on high resolution and high bit rates so that the cities off in the distance show some detail. The next time I try to make a video. I'll see if I can figure out what's wrong with the lower resolutions.
@@General_Tso Thank you :)
this is such a funny comment. a quick google would change your life my poor, data restricted friend.
Awesome but how to manage with the needs for goods with those mega city?
Long freight trains. ;)
Most of the cities do not receive all of the goods required. But they have enough to maintain their size.
I increased the maximum size of the cities using the editor tab. They still need supplies to grow. And I'm not sure one way or the other. But making those changes MIGHT make it easier to have big cities.
Also the really big buildings in the big city at the center of the map. were manually placed there by me. I also added a bunch of smaller stuff close to the tracks you are traveling on. But other than that the rest of the stuff is "real".
Thanks, awesome work very inspiring 👍
Hi! would it be possible for you to share your pc specs? Wonderful map!
Thank you. I'm glad you like the map. Intel i7 7820X, 32 GB ram, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080ti.
@@General_Tso Thanks!!!!
Bro what mod are you using for that tracks ? Seems no speed limit and looking amazingly realistic. Please if you can help me with that 🙏🙏
I made my own custom tracks by combining other mods together and then making a few changes. I made some of the changes after all of the track had already been laid. When I did that. I ended up with some weird kind of combination of the old mod and the changed mod. After I made those changes. Any track I tried to lay didn't look as good as the track that was already down. So I ended up with a situation where I stumbled on to something that looks pretty good. But I can't recreate it.
I can't share my mod because it was made from other mods. But most if not all of the artwork came from these two mods. So you might want to check them out.

@@General_Tso thank you brother 💖 for such a quick response
wow.....
Any more videos coming up?
Thank you for asking.
I'm waiting for the performance patch. So I'm not doing anything at the moment with TF2.
In the meantime I've been messing around with Cities Skylines. I'm currently working on a map that I hope will be good enough to use as a video source. I'll probably start a new channel for that (if possible).
@@General_TsoThanks for replying. After playing CitieSkylines for 5000hrs, I have finally given up. So many issues with that game. It can't really be played successfully without MODs and they end up causing so many problems. I spent more time trying to fix issues, than I was playing the game. That's why I am now playing TF2. Good luck with CitieSkylines. I will enjoy seeing what you do with it.
I have difficulties with both games. But they are both still great in my humble opinion. For the moment I'm playing Cities Skylines because it gives me different headaches then TF2 and I needed the change. Sounds like I have the same problem as you only the other way around. :)
Wieso eigendlich Züge gemodet aber keine lkws und Bahnübergänge? :😀
Sorry I'm not sure what you mean. There are trucks and level crossings in the video.
@@General_Tso why do you modding trains trafficlights for train but no American trucks and railroadcrossings?
@@philippgrosche6921 I never got around to it. :)
When I make a map like this. I tend to keep adding stuff until my computer starts choking. Once that happens. I have to make do with what's already there. By the time I thought of adding things like American traffic lights. It was to late. I already had to much stuff on the map.
