Route Great Western Express: Remastered - Feedback Thread

Ps5:
I am missing about 300 playable services, for instance no 484, 350, etc visible. I own all DLC and all layers are on.

 

Ps5 can’t walk through 350


Also in conductor mode 350 leaves with local doors open

 

For me those trains had to update their original routes first.

 

Seems this one is not so simple to adress.
It's been discussed elsewhere on this forum.
Lighting of a FPS map and ambient lighting in a large sim scene are two different things...

 

Then you have to explain why some routes going back all the way to SPG, BML and BPE, for instance, have decent ambient lighting while many others like Glossop and BCC do not.

And although some of us have raised this issue on the forum, there has been little to zero input from the developers including DTG.

 

Thx. But I got these updates alongside the GWR update...

 

Yes, it's true that it's better for some routes than others.
What I had in mind was that halo effect when approaching large urban areas, that light pollution characteristic of big cities that you can see from afar in the countryside as you get closer.
I've read on this forum that it's perfectly feasible to reproduce this on small maps, like for FPS games, but that it's much more complex to do on a larger scale.

In any case, I'm the first to be dissatisfied with the nights in TSW.
With foggy weather it's quite ok.
But in TS20xx/TSC I mostly played at night, and the lighting clearly suited me better then.

 

ok so if you spawn with 2x BR 52s lets say, you just set up your front loco and treat the rear one as another wagon, right? and what if you want to change ends? do you just shut down the front two engines and do sth with the brakes, and then walk to the other end and start up the other loco from cold pretty much?

not that I will do this much but I am now super curious

anyway, I have noticed at my trial ride with 52 that the scoring wasnt updated, as I see

 

I tried a class 31 on the diesels dlc and got an instant signal passed at danger.
Can't remember the service. Probably an old bug.
Just informing.

edit - PS5

 

For me it worked to renew the licenses for TSW6.

Really excellent route overall. One of the very best in TSW. just a couple more possible routing issues on PS5:

HST services 1P90 and 3P08 (Part 1) both have you switching from the fast to relief line and back on a few occasions. Both are overnight services with little other traffic so hard to see a good reason.
3P08 (Part 2) has you stopping incorrectly part way down the platform rather than at the end.

 

On the "FGW" 166 the Brake Demand and Isolate/Fault lights are lit no matter what. The same with the dashboard speedo light. On the 165 they work fine

 

While I'm loving this remaster, the one biggest frustration are the AI 166/165s without their passenger saloon lights switched on - this totally ruins the immersion at night and needs to be sorted in the next update.

 

Sorry to report another crash trying to run this route (PC/Steam). This time loading the Down Flying Scotsman run which I saved in the Slough area. Loading process got stuck, unable to Alt Tab to Steam or Edge. Required a hard reboot to kill the problem.
