    Hello everyone,

    I know that the issue with blurry textures is already known and that work is being done to fix it. Still, I find it somewhat puzzling why this problem remains such a big issue on the Xbox Series X. I’ve now selected the revised schedule for the Cologne–Aachen route and reduced the number of layers from 30 to 8, yet I still experience blurry textures after about 5 minutes. (Br 101 expert)
    Any ideas?

    Just chiming in. I've just gotten a new Series X. Installed the GWR remaster. No additional layers.

    After about 5 minutes the textures are all out of focus and blurry - ballast, walls etc, the trains are all suffering from blurred textures.

    It's genuinely borderline game breaking.

    I think blurry textures have got lot worse over the last few weeks every route now has them from start to finish.

    Xbox Series X. All latest updates downloaded.

    Spawned in one of the new HST pack variants on the Preston to Carlisle route, a route which doesn't usually suffer texture issues.

    Within 5 minutes the HST is all blurred, both inside and out. The ballast is blurred. The grass and fields of crops are all blurred. Bridges and buildings are blurred.

    They need to get a handle on this and fast. The game is becoming unplayable.

    Not only blurry textures. The game on my Xbox X LOVE*s itself up. It crashes 2 of 4 times on the loading screen when starting. I didn't change or buy anything for weeks. Even older routes are crashing without a reason.
    It clearly got worse!

    Not sure what you mean by this?

    I'm just posting that it is currently a thing on a route that previously didn't suffer from it to the best of my knowledge, but now does since the remaster.

    I'm not sure how I could put it any differently :)
    I had BTs before the latest update.
