Roadmap Update - 24th August 2021

Question for stream: Which livery will be the DB BR 363? Is it the Bundesbahn Blue-beige as stated 2 roadmaps ago or is it just the normal red "DB livery" which is on the roadmap since the last one? And if that has really been changed to the DB red, why is this the case and why was this change not communicated when it happend? I remember Matt talking about the blue beige livery a few weeks ago, saying that minor changes have been made to the original 363, so I thought this is fixed.

 

Question : is the topic in this thread correct ?

When Boston Sprinter is going to be patched from its numerous bugs?

 

Since we won't be able to drive down the branch lines on Riesa-Dresden, will those services be turned into AI only trains?

 

TrainSim-Adam I have a question is that IC and ICE services will be added on RHO

 

I hope that's just a typo

 

Gradients!

So finally playable scenarios where it's not red light at the start and no way to play?

In planning? Weren't these two actively worked on? How are they all the way down there?

 

Questions which would be nice to get answered during the stream:
- Is there a plan to include more external hardware. In particular, with the implementation of TrackIR, will other systems such as TobiiEye be supported as well?
- When will the newly introduced bugs by the update to the new engine get addressed (in particular audio issues on the German trains, buttons not working properly, the symbols on the MFD such as the door-opened indicator no longer functioning)?

 

Can only second that!!

I was wondering the same. But then, the version released on Epic weeks ago was (and probably always has been) the final version of SKA and Bakerloo without the passengers, so it seems to not have been a last minute "Oh we missed that" as suggested earlier...

 

The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune - 7pm UTC tonight.

 

Questions for stream:
1. What about cut branches in Dresden-Riesa route? Are you going to add them in the foreseeable future?
2. Scenario "Marching in", Boston sprinter. Speed restriction (ACSES/ATC) in the yard after train consist is 0. Is it bug or feature?

 

This would be awesome, yes! RRO really would benefit from that. And I'm not sure about RSN - do IC/ICE services run there?

 

Am I missing something here? I thought this was already announced?

 

How will dtg ensure that another annual update doesn't cause the issues that were present don't happen again? It's unacceptable for xbox players to have to uninstall and reinstall their content to get the game working and ps4 players shouldn't have had the issues they had.

 

I have a question for the Brighton mainline
Will the small branch to West croydon be added
And if its not being added I personally think it should be added as it is not that much track from selhurst it is quite shorter than the Reigate branch

 

Wow, Talk about kicking us PS4 users when we are down.

 

An extension to st Austell was announced , but the roadmap lists the route is to truro

 

Question for stream when is Save Transfer from PS4 version to PS5 going to be implemented.

 

Oh yeah. Good spot.

 

Why are these two in production?

IN PRODUCTION

• ® [Core] Train Sim World 2: Rush Hour
• [Core] Steam Update

These came out last week didnt they?

 

Question for the stream. The PS5 version of the game often drops from 60fps to just 30fps when at a main station or encountering another moving train on track. Will DTG be addressing this as it is unacceptable (no other PS5 game varies in fps in such an erratic manner)

Edit. Should point out fps takes a hit when you turn the camera when encountering these slowdowns

 

Rush Hour is not fully released, Dresden is upcoming, London Brighton is in Production.

Steam is a long way off completion yet, we don't know what loco, route etc this will consist of. Not steam the software brand.

 

Question for Adam - Is he aware that the last LIRR update broke the alerter on the M3 and it no longer responds to the "Q" key - What the timeframe for getting this fixed?

 

Question for the stream, how long will the rush hour routes be worked on after release by the team that built them before they are handed over to the preservation team and have to wait their turn with all the older routes for fixes and improvements?

 

Well steam is for the software brand AFAIR, and Rush Hour was the core update i thought

 

question for the stream: British Summer ends on September 22nd how can you ensure London Commuter and Riesa-Dresden will both routes make it out before the end of summer and not into the autumn since Riesa-Dresden is on upcoming not next arrival and the next roadmap will be 7th September which is just 2 weeks short of when summer ends and London Commuter is still to go after that

 

UPCOMING

• ▲ ® [Route Add-On] DBB-R7 06 Bahnstrecke Riesa - Dresden with DB BR 442, DB BR 143, DB BR 146.2, DB BR 363 in DB livery and BR 185.5 in MRCE black livery

Moved to upcoming, meaning it's already in testing phase and yet we haven't seen anything yet... I would recommend being wary and not very excited.

 

It is not! It is about what you have in your profile picture, bringing steam engines to TSW

 

Question for stream. How did the ai getting stuck on the Boston route get overlooked during testing? If ran too long the timetable is a mess

 

They are previewing it on Thursday’s stream, so you could get a little bit excited.

 

Does really matter too much if they overshoot by a couple of days, which, seemingly, is likely to happen now.

 

Can you improve the headlights for the rest of the American locomotives? The F40 that came with Northeast Corridor shines further ahead than the rest of them do.

 

We got LZB for the 146, but why not for the 185,155,143,425? Also, Matt stated we can get more realistic german freight train lengths (600-740M) When will the team approximately reach this?

 

Why are neither Main-Spessart nor West Sumerset trains compatible with the Livery Editor?

 

Oh, didn't notice that, thank you for notifying me

My excitement levels haven't bounced back yet, but perhaps the preview is going to be interesting.

 

Steam means steam loco engine

 

Question for the Stream?
Are you guys going to fix the Very bad performance FPS for PS4/xbox one in Boston?
If so...When? Can you give us a time frame?

 

Where did we get LZB on the 146? Did I miss anything? It is not working at all lol and not every loco needs LZB as per real life

 

Wonder how long till Skyhook appears on the RM with patch fixes for Cane Creek.

 

Would be nice if us PS4 players could play the dlc and routes we purchased..

 

I don’t want them to rush it. If it needs longer, it needs longer. I want it to be perfect, or as near perfect as possible.

 

My questions:

- Any progress to report on steam? We didn't hear anything not even the promised articles.
- Any progress on the scenario planner 2.0? What is going to happen there?
- Anything to say about fixing the bugs in SEH, Clinchfield and Cane Creek? What is DTG doing to decrease the backlog to a reasonable size?

 

I’m not surprised Adam is appearing tonight , his crew have updated the preservation routes on the PlayStation so much you need to get a new console to play them!!!!

 

Cant for the stream.. Will they actually talk about ps4 or just dismiss it?

 

Still holding off on a purchase because of this. I hope they release a patch soon because there aren't that many major issues and I would really like to be their customer.

SEHS: At this point it has probably been delegated to Adam's remit. It may be a while yet before we receive any updates for this route.
Clinchfield: Still waiting for that SD40 horn...
Cane Creek: See above.

Cheers

 

I've been wondering that very same thing.
Maybe they won't. Can't remember if Rivet patches have appeared on the Roadmap or just announced on their own website.

 

You can activate it but that's about it.. It's pretty useless and broke the afb...

 

An article is confirmed to come after rush hour

 

Remember when they promised one article a month?

Pepperidge Farm remembers.
