Loco Tfw Class 142 Feedback Thread

Has it even released? Can't find it on the Xbox store and there's been no announcement about it being out now!

 

Class 142
-TPWS interface doesn’t illuminate during the self test sequence
-Door closing animation is slightly out of sync with the slam sound
-Driver - guard buzzer isn’t as loud & clear as the guard - driver buzzer audio

Class 153
-Doubled units seem to share the same train numbers e.g 153 367 coupled to a duplicate 153 367

 

Still not o xbox cant even get it via the game.

 

I will try

 

Just reset my xbox series x and still not showing in the store or via the game.

 

yet another release without it being tested properly?

 

Tried that multiple times. Nothing.

 

To be fair 2 of the 4 bugs listed are more nitpicks than anything damning

Infamous blurry textures are back…
-Between Waun-gron Park & Radyr getting close to the train body or staying in the cab for long periods of time then using an external camera causes the textures the downgrade

 

Available on the XBox store now.

 

Sitting in canton depot with a 142 for the 1326 into Cardiff central and surrounded by blurry textures on all other 142s sadly. I was optimistic that this dlc could be unaffected given the original route seemed to be free of them. On PS5

 

I am not giving DTG another cent until the textures are sorted out on consoles. Absolutely unacceptable that this is still an issue . SORT IT OUT!!!!!!

 

Local door operation is all wrong.
Only one leaf should open when local door is opened. Also, shouldn’t close with the doors close button.

 

I also found them on the line out of Queen Street to Coryton

 

Well, as I suspected, the reason no console footage was allowed before release is because of the blurry textures.

People. Us console players HAVE to stop buying content until they actually fix the issue. DTG are entirely financially motivated, what motivation do they have if they can release N64 textures and we'll still pay?

(I'm not blaming JT, the blurry textures is a DTG issue, they won't fix)

 

The blurry textures seem to come in on the longer runs after coming through Cardiff Central in either direction. They do recover quickly at least on PS5 Pro, unlike the new Birmingham route. On the shorter runs it‘s fine. - For the record I never had an issue on the original timetable.
I do agree that this issue needs to be fixed sooner than later. Otherwise there is no future for TSW on console really as we will be left behind with reduced timetables.

 

You must have a Golden Eye to spot them

 

l found it around the same time too. Microsoft should do better!

 

A second thing I have a suspicion on here is that the substitution appears to be borked. I ran a whole bunch of services with the 142 and everything else drivable on the route was a 142. I kinda assumed that the 150 and 153 must just be ECS moves but, according to the timetable, they aren’t, they follow the same diagrams! pS5 again, for reference and also, as an update, I haven’t seen a single place where my textures actually look anything other than blobs!

 

So what did the class 150 and 153 replace the pacers..

 

Literally a photo in this thread...

 

It's a joke.

 

Well now I feel silly. *Facepalms harshly*

 

Currently running my third 142 service and have seen 0 150's and 153's

 

Can someone run job 3E00 depot run in the 153. And see if can past the red signal just outside the depot. Thanks

 

Also on service 2P05 where you are instructed to uncouple 2 pacer sets at Cardiff Central im unable to uncouple the units

 

I done that ok just go to the other in set cab up and press uncouple button.

 

So go the other end of the set you are currently in or go to the other set ? Also there is no need to activate the master key on the uncouple desk ?

 

Go to the end of the set you are in.

 

It is incredibly disappointing to hear there are issues of blurry textures yet again with this release. I was looking forward to this DLC for quite a while, I enjoyed driving the Pacer on Blackpool Branches and WCML-Shap, and it was a large factor in my decision to purchase Cardiff City Network in the first place. I acknowledge I am just a singular voice and I don't post much here, but having spent over $700 CAD on TSW DLC over the past few years, I can confidently say I will not be spending a further dime on this or future releases, until the blurry texture problem has been fully resolved.

 

Got it thanks

 

Platform: PS5
Journey Mode Chapter: Donkey Wrong
Broken Service: 3E00 Cardiff Canton to Cardiff Central

I am also having trouble with the red signal on 3E00. I have tried deleting various nearby trains and the signal never clears. I’m still troubleshooting, so hopefully one of us comes up with a workaround!

EDIT: I’ve tried all the workarounds I could think of, and the signal never clears. So we have another journey mode chapter broken on launch day. Incredibly disappointing!

 

Same as Blackpool press local open to trigger the close button.

Agreed with that only one leaf should open when local door is opened.

 

Doors on AI trains close after it departs. Seems to be all rolling stock on route this issue happens with.

 

I only did a couple of quick runs as I've been dozing off after a hard & long day at work, didn't notice anything particularly out of place with the 142, the only thing that did stick out was that on the three runs I did all of the AI trains were 142s, no Sprinters, 37 or modern LOVE either. I did load the 150 for a short ECS into Canton and that ran fine and there was a Hitatchi thing pulling out of the next platform so I need to do a quick check and see if the issue only happens when the player is in a 142 of their own.

 

I have had one run so far, very enjoyable. However all the moving AI traffic were class 142's, apart from a 170 in Cardiff Central, I assume this isn't intended. There was a 150 and a 37 and mark 2's in Canton depot.

 

No 153s either.

 

No didn't see one.

I thought 153's worked the Cardiff Bay shuttle, certainly the one time I travelled on it around 2016 it was a 153 but maybe that was a one off.

 

So do the 142, 150 and 153 all share the one timetable. Each loco is showing the same job amount completed.
