Loco Avanti West Coast Class 805 Add-on Feedback Thread

This 805 is causing so many crashes on xbox for even if it just drives past me it crashes.

 

It's unbelievable how poorly tested add ons are these days.

1801 Holyhead to Euston service on WCML South- apart from having to manually raise the pantograph (why do we suddenly have to do this?), the rear unit is unpowered.

I would still like to remind whoever at All Aboard is reading this at the audio, specifically the running sounds, are inferior to the GWR 802. I also noticed that the usual "TPWS and AWS operational" audio message in the cab is cut off at the beginning so it just says "AWS operational".

 

It's a genuinely interesting question

 

Are jobs missing for this loco cause it just seems like its light for jobs. Compared to the other locos.

 

Nope as Avanti only owns small amount of them irl so there drives will be light compared to the class 390

 

Ok thank you.

 

These are place holders for the Trent valley stock when that releases as layers

 

Sorry if already logged, but loading into a saved game both the central (speedo) and right hand TMS displays keep going blank. (PC/Steam).

 

DTG Alex Hi Alex is there any patches coming to stop the crashing on xbox. Thanks

 

Every time I get to the end of the route sometimes the game crashes on the Birmingham to Crewe route on class 805 I’m on PS5 has anyone else had crashes on PS5

 

There are EPS (Enhanced Permitted Speed) these are for trains that can tilt (when AWC had 221 plus the 390) 805/807 have to abide by the normal permitted speed which is 110mph

 

I still can't do any jobs from London Euston it just crashes on the load screen on xbox anyone else facing this issues.

 

Every time

 

Yes every time and its really killing it now for me.

 

Anyone who owns this loco, question please....

Did they fix the remote tail light indicators to actually show the correct thing, or just copy and paste it from the 801/802?

Thanks

 

Take a wild guess..

 

My wild guess, is that it was a copy and paste job!!

 

Have mentioned this but nothing back from the Devs. With the New Timetable on B2C it makes me close the doors on Red now which I really do hate with it. So no signs delays on this route now on the new TT.

Also the DRA will permanently lock the brakes even after resetting it. Only fix is to use the I’m stuck option in the pause menu.

 

So they literally took the 802 and turned it into an Avanti 805. Because the 802 also has that issue with the DRA.

 

Anyone else noticed that the pantograph glows white. If so should it do that.

 

Wow. I am actually amazed they did not fix that.

I have flagged it via a bug report for the 802 so many times, plus mentioned it in the feedback, as have many others and yet nothing and then they just copy it straight over to the 805.

And yet it works ok on the 801.

 

Anyone else noticed that the AI trains have there lights switched off at night.

 

So far every 10 car service I've tried has the rear unit unpowered.

This game is a complete joke. Normally I try and defend this game but I'm just so fed up of the complete lack of quality control.

 

I understand that it is illuminated IRL, so it can be monitored on CCTV. So it's on purpose.

 

On a positive note: the tutorial for the 805 is really good. Cold start, changing ends, power changeover, coupling. All that before starting the standard training of passenger procedures. It also has good AI scenery with trains moving around you. More tutorials should be like that.

 

On the WCML South timetable the Class 710s MSO is rotated the wrong way making it have a larger than usual gap from the DMS and no gap from the PMSO, I don't think its the PMSO since that has the correct spacing from the DMS it is connected to.

It also seems that the spawning of 350s is heavily biased towards /1s in spite of the fact that more /2s and /3s exist, 30 /1s and 47 /2 and /3s respectively. This is on the WCML South timetable. Considering the /2s are now stored a Class 730 add on would be really nice since it fills that spot in LNWRs roster.

 

Thanks never would have thought that.

 

Just a question on the panto selection and may e real life too. In the 801 the rear panto raises by default while in the 805 the front panto raises by default. Real life pictures back this up. Is there a reason for the difference between 80x models?

Really enjoying this DLC. But shouldn't the livery be a bit more blue than green. The 805s appear to have a more blue tint than the 390s green in real life pictures and footage. It's like the livery shades of the 805 were matched to the 390 in game.
