This product is now released and can be discussed at Other - [Official DLC] OMSI London

* Updated 9th December 2017.*
In order to ensure the London WIP thread is solely focused on the Work in Progress developments of London. It's been decided that it will be best to create a new thread for any questions that you may have regarding the features to be included in the add-on.

Prior to asking your questions, please ensure that this has not already been showcased in the WIP topic. Please also ensure that you READ this thread before commenting

Please Note: This thread is not the place to ask for the add-on's release date as I will disclose that once it's time to make it publicly known.

FAQ:
What buses are included in the DLC package?
- B5LH/Gemini 3
  • Citybus 200
  • Citybus 400
  • New Routemaster


What routes are included in the DLC package? (updated)


Do the buses come with an onboard iBus system?
Yes, it's currently being re-scripted to allow it to have a few more functions. These functions will be disclosed at a later date as it's not our top priority.

Can I become a beta tester for one of the vehicles/map?
No, we are not looking for any beta testers. We appreciate many of you are excited, but we also do expect many of you to respect our decision. All testers were selected by myself and my development team. This was done on a basis of people who are in the community who we can already trust, and not done on the basis of requests.

How much will add-on London cost?
Add-On London is currently expected to be priced at £24.99/27.95 Euros for the download version dependent on where you live, and £28-£30 for the boxed version depending on which site you purchase the add-on from.

Are there any plans for future vehicles post-London release?
Yes, there are plans for a number of vehicles which will be confirmed once development has started on those. The only confirmed vehicle is the Enviro400City, as discussed above.

Will the buses use the same rollband system as the current freeware London B9TL?
Road-hog123 has spent excessive time working on a brand new rollband script to replicate the Mckenna Brother's Powerblinds unit. All buses included in the add-on will feature its own unique powerblind set and does not replicate the example seen in the Volvo B9TL by AD156

People wanting to know if there's something new about any addon is bound to happen, it's only curiosity. The issue is when they continue to ask despite the dev previously saying or implying that it isn't appreciated. As a developer, I can completely understand how irritating it gets because most of us see it as if there's an update worthy of being shown, it'll be shown at your own accord and that should be respected. Doing so when asked doesn't stop people asking for very long, besides which the dev hasn't got a responsibility to fulfill every request of that sort, and members of the community shouldn't think it's a right they have.

It was by no means trying to start the whole argument again, I was pointing out a potential (and valid) suggestion as to the reason why it could've been hidden or deleted for the members who might not have thought or realised about that issue, which stands regardless of people's views on it. Now they're aware of it, time to move on :)

I would imagine it's been deleted as he'll be quite possibly be fed up with people legitimately asking for even the smallest form of an update as to how the map is progressing? It would be nice to know how it's progressing if it is, that way it might mean people will stop asking for a while.
Look rhys would not delete a map hes been working on for 5 or 6 years

It’ll be 4 years, this year. TSLP came out in Nov 2015, but still you’re correct.
plus if people wanted updated on the map why not just join this forum ?
Indeed, I post most of my screenshot updates on Flickr anyway, nowadays. I’ll only going to update the forums when I have content other than screenshots.

Also the FB Page was unpublished for time management, so I don’t have to worry about it for now :)
