PC Tsw 5 Enhancement | Lighting & Graphic Ep V2.3.0

Has anyone got God Mode running with Birmingham-Crewe using this, and successfully loaded in some lighting settings? With it added, I can use God Mode fine (zoomier zoom, etc.), but if I load in an Ultra preset from another route (I've tried both BCC and WCMLS settings), the game crashes with an access violation error at the same place, a little north of Birmingham New Street. If I don't load a preset, no crash.

Only tried a couple of different Pendolino runs so far, will test further with different locos and runs, but I'm curious if others have also experienced this.

 

What do you have for pc Specs? Im asking this, the shared settings by JetWash are only for PCs with a high-end build. So they are not suitable for lower PCs. I mean you need an expensive GPU. I have 24GB GPU for example and i have other high end system specs

 

I loaded in the WCMLS settings and, so far, it has been ok, though I havent made many runs in it yet.

 

To reiterate, the settings I’ve placed above will need adapting for any preset other than ‘beast’

 

Why is Foobian Not Updating the Mod?
It’s just a easy work to make the new routes compatible

 

I don’t know, you’d have to ask him, but I’d imagine that like me he’s busy. FWIW updating godmode is a significantly quicker process than updating this by a significant margin.

 

Ryzen 7 5800X, 64GB RAM, RTX 4070 Ti Super 16GB, M.2 NVMe SSDs. Good enough that I can run Jetwash's excellent mod with Ultra settings, with everything in game set to Ultra apart from Sky Quality (Very High), and get at least 60fps (often more) across all routes on my 1080p 144Hz monitor. Without loading a preset I was getting upwards of 70fps across a lot of the rest of the route, so there's no issue with my setup here.

Indeed, I didn't use those settings (as mentioned, I tried a couple of existing Ultra settings from other routes).

Thanks, that's good to know. I'll experiment further when I get the chance, and hope that the incoming patches for the route help.

 

Isnt he busy doing something else? :p

 

Looking at the map graphic, my crashes were happening just past the Soho Depot heading towards Smethwick Rolfe Street, in the area which others are reporting causing crashes. My guess therefore is that whatever is going on there is pushing things over the edge, but is just about coping when I don't have the extra fidelity from a preset.

 

Yeah and you used the ini settings above they have been shared by JetWash for the latest TSW6 core and Birmingham to Crew Route? This settings are not for Ultra but for Beast mode users. Thats the problem youre pc is not strong enough to run those settings

 

I've already said twice now that I'm using an Ultra preset from other routes, not the Beast settings for this route:

 

joffonon Sorry i have misunderstanding you there! What you can do is to try 2 options.... Check youre mods, maybe its caused by outdated ones or change from Ultra to High. Youre CPU is not very strong and thats why the game crashed due to the amount of layers. Crewe ask for a high amount of CPU Power. I will say for 99% sure youre CPU is too weak to handle crew with a Ultra preset

 

I don't think it's the CPU, it's overclocked and bear in mind I'm only running at 1080p; the 5800X may not be top-of-the-line but it's still a fairly decent 1080p-capable CPU. My rig can handle graphics-intensive routes like WCMLS with all the enhancement mods, with Ultra ini settings (I run on DX12 too). Also, I haven't got all the layers (no Voyager) and as I said I can get a very good frame rate for this particular route in 'vanilla'. Pretty sure it's not other mods either, as the route ran fine from end-to-end without issues without a preset loaded.

As I say, I'll experiment further, but the fact that the crashing occurs at exactly the same spot, in an area that others are reporting causing issues, points to it being an issue with whatever's happening there rather than my CPU.

 

Thats the point where i can say this engine.ini tips youre pc over the max and it will crash. So without this engine tweaks it works without problems but when you add this extra amount of graphics (what used a lot more power) youre game crashed. When it will be the route it self it should be the same crash result but it doesnt

 

Well, I'm getting the same crash error you and others reported in the same general area... https://forums.dovetailgames.com/threads/birmingham-crewe-feedback-thread.94801/page-4#post-1056315

 

Sorry my crash has nothing to do what you describe when you arrive at Crewe ... Better read a little better what i describe there Its also not near by....

Its correct its the same message but thats a general message that not described what the problem is. This is a message that can have several meanings and you will not get any awnser out of it.

 

With all due respect, asking me to "read a little better what I describe" when you have misread several times what I've described is, to say the least, a little rich.

And where did I say anything about a problem arriving at Crewe? I said 'a little north of Birmingham New Street' initially, then later narrowed it down to 'heading towards Smethwick Rolfe Street, in the area which others are reporting causing crashes' - you being one of the others!

 

If you’re running in 1080p that will be putting ALL the load on your CPU (it’s why all CPU benchmarking is done at 1080p, to stress the CPU to its limit). You may well be better trying a higher resolution if your system is becoming CPU limited. Are you running DX12?

ps I’d bet you could pick up a secondhand 5800x3D fairly cheap and that would make the world of difference to your gaming

 

Yes, DX12 (always have done).

 

I would strongly suggest using the preset above and adapting the non-lighting parameters to match other Ultra presets

 

Thanks, I'll give that a go when I get the chance (away for work much of today and tomorrow).

I'm intrigued at what you say though about 1080p being more CPU resource-intensive than higher resolutions. Your edited suggestion noted, thanks - I'll also see what running the game at a higher resolution looks like when downscaled to my monitor.
