    When might Rivet add a new add on?

    Will we see a giant summer DLC this year again?

No drivers shown on AI trains, Doors staying open on AI trains, No marker lights/headlights on AI trains, PIS on AI trains, Signaling.I know there're other issues I failed to mentioned but any update would be helpful to keep us updated. thanks

    Are there any plans on a larger Summer release?


    Oh, and I’m just suprised that we already can see the roadmap, I don’t think that’s how it always was :)

    Seen as DTG have been focused on patching/working on current releases since PFR have there been any updates to xbox audio or the situation with unachievable golds?

    Will we see any UI changes, regarding trainsets in multiple liveries?

    It bugs me that the MML HST is displayed as 8+2 & 6+2 sets, while main selector is HST GWR. But also, the GWR HST is just displayed as HST and no explanation as why there are two different options. (8+2 and 9+2) or whatever it is.

    When will all the older routes from TSW2 onwards be finally updated. Considering the Preservation Crew's hard work that's been ready to go for months now ?

    1) unreal 5 probably won’t happen for a few years
    2) you can’t beta test the PS5 so not all areas are covered by this

    3) when they can put the time and effort into it

    Will DTG please consider cancelling the "content manager" on Xbox and PC, where it serves no purpose (and might actually result in a worse user experience) and is only taking dev time from other projects?

    They did explain previously that it needs to come in order for tsw to continue working or something for xbox and pc. There's no way out of it from what I know.

    Can we stop the add-on manager on Xbox. It's not working properly on PlayStation 5 so to force it on everybody else isn't a good idea!

    firstly I’m no bot, also PC isn’t the be all and end all. Also you never actually said PC only , also most of the console audience are on gen 8 so if they cut them they would lose a big percentage of audience, gen 9 consoles are still not easy to get, oh yeah, you PC folks wouldn’t understand

    What's the point of releasing ue5 then if it's not going to be a full release. Why not release it on all platforms all at once.

    It's been all of those things since November. For the past two months it's been "days away" from release.

    JD clarified what that patch applied to and that it was pretty minor. Nothing for EDI - GLA.

    Any update on the AI PIS bug present on routes such as Southeastern and Birmingham?

    This bug is no longer an issue on newer routes, it would be so nice if you could go back and fix it on the older routes. The 700 releasing is a perfect time to do so :D

    • Arosalinie (snow effects on GE 4/4 window, added sparks and snow kick-up, updated running, flange, and whistle audio)
    Do the sounds for this one also regard the wagons Jasper_Rivet ?

    Blitzing through some of these now:


    In the Roadmap, being worked on still.

    I haven't heard anything RE: Xbox Audio - I know we've tried to reproduce it without much success. Golds I'll ask about tonight.

    When Joe has finished the work, we can provide an updated Service figure.

    Xbox should see a performance benefit, but it is required to maintain the back-end infrastructure of the game. Long-term, managing to separate back-end infrastructures won't be viable from both a technical and a consistency process. We aren't planning to release it until we're confident though.

    I don't see anything in tomorrow's patch notes relating to physics/sounds for 1938 Stock - there's a minor audio improvement for the 150 - Increased revs when starting train in notch 3, dropping down noticeably once torque converter is filled.

    I believe so! I can ask tonight though.

    Nothing about the bugs introduced on Boston by the NEC patch, this is unplayable currently if you run with safety systems on.

    Nothing about the Rapid Transit BR182 Dosto - still undriveable 9 months from TSW3 release.

    What is the thinking about it being acceptable that the Class 700 stop boards not lining up with the stop markers - immersion breaking and not acceptable IMO, will make me rethink purchase on this.

    Overall disappointed by this roadmap if I am being frank.

    Have the 'colouring in team' finished their multiple discussions about changing the UI cursor selection from grey to something better?
    Or are they still waiting for a licence from Crayola to use a different colour.

    While I appreciate the effort that has gone into the guard scenario, I would much rather see the guard's duties be correctly simulated and under AI control on non-DOO trains so that we the drivers don't have to open and close the doors ourselves. Is this under consideration, at least for newly released trains?

    Will the guard mode work whilst you act as driver? IE, will a guard open the doors and give me the right away whilst I’m driving?

    I really hope that the guard scenario will NOT form part of one of the journey chapters.

    Whilst I appreciate for some this is a sought after feature personally I have zero interest in acting as a guard in a Train Sim and do not want to be forced to complete the scenario in order to complete the journey chapters.

    Have to agree with you. I’m here to drive trains, however I have no objection if they install guards to open and close doors for me. ;)

    My question is that on the roadmap, it says there is a small update to lirr. It's been on the roadmap for over a year now. What is this small update for lirr going to improve and why has it been on the roadmap for so long?
