    Hey folks!

    As we pushed a large update out today, we wanted to open a feedback thread to hear your thoughts on it. Have you noticed a change in performance? Are there any particular highlights for you? Does the changelog properly reflect the fixes you've received? Is there anything listed as fixed that is still appearing for you?

    Some things we'll need from you:
    - Please keep this thread specifically on the topic of the 23rd June update. For any previous issues that have not been listed on the full changelog, but have been present since before the update, please post a separate thread or raise a support ticket.
    -
    Use this to report new issues as a potential result of the update.
    - Use this to report fixes listed in the patch notes that are still occurring after the update.
    - Make sure to tell us what platform you are using.
    - If you've seen performance improvements, please let us know.

    DB BR 114
    • Fixed an incorrect speed selector sign showing 30 instead of the selected 100km/h.
    • Fixed an issue causing the undercarriage to spin with the wheels.
    • Fixed an issue causing the keybind for the wipers to trigger the wrong switch.
    • Fixed an issue causing players to walk through the side doors.
    • Fixed an issue causing the throttle to lock when using AFB to reduce or maintain speed.
    • Fixed an issue where GNT wouldn’t work after saving and reloading.

    Hi DTG Harry , Is this meant to be the 411 instead of the 114?

    Fixed an issue causing the selection filters not to work

    The "Filter" and "Sort" functions in the Online Sharing Hub still do not work. Although this was not exactly, specifically addressed according to the patch notes, it is worth mentioning because it is not clear if DTG are aware that some sorting and filtering issues still exist, or if this patch was supposed to completely fix the problem. At least, it would be beneficial to know if DTG had intended to fix the Online Sharing Hub with this patch, or not.

    I've changed these over to correctly reflect their actual locos. I think I was starting to go a little patch note blurry after a while!

    I second that, can't find the 101 Expert update anywhere.
    Also, I can't find the cream/blue 218 either.

    AmityBlight It appears they only sent out route updates via Steam, no separate locomotive DLCs.

    Current issues logged:
    • Entire Expert 101 patch missing across PC, Xbox and possibly PlayStation, but yet to have confirmation. (Don't forget to tell me your platforms, folks.)
    • New DB BR 218 livery is missing.
    • Advanced settings are not appearing for disabling route content AI trains on some routes, but only Dresden confirmed so far.
    I have made dev aware of the above.

    I'm on PC/Steam :)

    Very, veeerrry minor nitpick: The new horn for the cream/blue 111 sounds good, but is a bit on the quiet side. Could be a tad louder, especially inside the cab.

    I downloaded all the updates today and I'm playing on an Xbox Series x. Unfortunately, the changes for the DB Br 101 expert as well as the implementation of the 101 expert in the Mannheim-Kauserslautern route are not displayed to me. DTG? Is there an update or is it an error? I didn't have to download an update for the BR 101 expert dlc either. Only updates for the individual tracks were displayed on Xbox.

    Okay sorry i saw now that the update for the 101 is completly missing everywhere. Can we Expect it today ?

    Hi!

    for me on PC (Steam) the 101 also is still missing its Update.
    However the Core Update for the Game seems to be there, indicated by the random Crash due to a Mod

    On pc Steam, I tried cycling the no mods toggle from disable to enable and back to see if this would cause it to work. Nope, God mod is alive and well with the mods disabled.

    Loading times when the player is teleporting within heavy-load routes (FSN/FTF for example) or route hopping between such routes appear to be longer.

    To say something positive.

    Since the update, the Frankfurt-Fulda route runs much better on the Xbox Series x. There are significantly fewer micro lags and the frame rate is constant at 50-60 fps. Only in Frankfurt Hbf it is of course below but that's what you can handle. I am pleased to see that the console players are slowly being increased and the feedback of the players is taken seriously. The blurry textures were not fixed as Harry said but I am confident that the next updates will bring improvement. Now I just hope that with the next update also the extended timetable for Frankfurt S Bahn comes out on consoles because this is urgently needed to breathe life into the route. Currently, this is boring, unfortunately

    Noticed two issues so far on Steam :
    - No BR 218 Blue/Cream livery added Now working, loco is available in Free Roam/Time Table mode
    - Filter selection in CC still not working.
    - New menu option not translated in German localization, see screenshot:

    Update, 17:33pm BST.

    We've just pushed the 101 Expert and 218 patches again on Steam, could you please let me know if you're seeing the update now, please?

    For any Xbox players who aren't seeing the update, can I ask which platform you're playing on, please? Just updating the notes, but at the request of the developer, these improvements will only be available for Gen9 platforms.

    The toggle switch to disable mods is still not working after that last patch. I know it didn't mention this, but thought I would check anyway.

    The initial load up seems particularly brutal - been going for over 10 minutes so far and only just over halfway. Usually loads in under 5.

    I’m on Xbox Series X with around 400gb worth of routes/content.

    I'm currently doing a service with the new Expert 101 Railbow (which is looking great) along Mannheim-Kaiserslautern (Expert timetable seems to work well so far) and noticed something:
    [​IMG]
    Have those roads between Ludwigshafen Mitte and Ludwigshafen Hbf always been this messy? There's barely 30 cm of space between the low and middle one... never noticed this before.

    We sometimes have preparation patches for future content, or stability patches. Nothing public-facing that is relevant for putting in the notes.

    On XSX, I've just done a quick run from Preston to Lancashire in the class 87 and performance definitely seems a lot better to me.

    Before the update I'd get the frequent sound squelching, on the run I've just done it was a lot better. Still the occasional stutter and minor squelch but very infrequent so I'm happy with that one!

    Variances from published list:
    No ScotRail 158
    I did get GWE & MML updates.
    No option to turn off AI pax accessories.
    The other options appear in two menus: general & advanced.

    Well, that's a rather gray area. I am of the old-school sort (I got my A+ certification back in the early 90s) who believed patch notes should reflect every single line of altered code, not just what someone thinks is 'relevant' for the end user to know.

    Playing on the Koln Aachen Timetable (new one) on the PS5.
    Service DGS 56552 Quadrath Ichendorf - Koln Niehl Hafen dumped me in Kold Depot miles away from my train.

    Then the game crashed when I went from the map to the game. It had the pause menu buttons overlayed onto the game screen. I couldnt exit or do anything. I ended my livestream then reset the game.

    Regards

    Tony.

    The patch notes are already pretty sizeable in most updates (particularly this one!), so we try not to bloat them more with things that players aren't going to see/interact with.
