PS5 Blurry Graphics Even Worse Than Before

After the update the problem with the blurry graphics didn't get better but got worse. While the problem previously occurred in the Hanau and Frankfurt areas, Fulda is now also affected. The picture was taken shortly after departure. how is this route drivable? I've already set the graphics down to HD, but the problem occurred repeatedly

 

I agree, it got even worse ... and the question is whether it is only on the Frankfurt Fulda map ... to be honest, one does not even feel like trying it again on other maps

 

Sad to hear so I think this will also be the case on Xbox. I will test it today but this is really annoying almost not playable with this blurry textures. I hope its not worse than before it was already bad enough.

 

My feeling is that it is worse .....

 

I noticed in the ICE T, the textures in the cab got really blurry too. All of the text under switches and what not become illegible. This was before the update, haven’t had chance to try it since the update was released.

 

It also blurs the outer textures.....

 

The problem is at it‘s worst on the Expert 101. Which makes the expert mode very difficult to use because you can‘t recognise what switch and fuse is what.

 

Having the same issue on the 801. In cab textures broken too, especially when zoom in over text just goes to a white blurry rectangle…

dtg_jan is the team looking into this please? New since the update. Noticed on 1Y82 when stopped at NNG and also at other points along the route. Imagine it’s an issue throughout…

 

ECML has been an issue since TSW4 with textures. It was fixed back in around April, but broke again with an early August patch. The problem has transferred across to TSW5

 

I just drove the 101 Expert and the textures got blurry short after heading out of Frankfurt. And I got a feeling that the faster you go the blurrier the textures get at 200 km/h I could not read anything in the cab. Everything got washed out. I can say it is worse than before.

 

I think it got worse.

 

Hi Harry, when I initially drove the ICE-T I thought it was more or less the same, however it seems to get much worse with the Expert 101.

 

So just another point I tested a short run with the ICE T to Hanau. With custom weather and since I reached 150 km/h it turned blurry got sharp again and short before Hanau it got blurry again and at the end before the stop the game crashed. Never had any crash on Frankfurt so far before the update. It was the Expert 101 timetable on Series X.

 

Interesting point to make as well for me on PS5 is that I can‘t even choose the ICE-T in the Expert Timetable:

It does show up as AI (all layers do). - The normal timetable is fine.

 

This is crazy! I just tried the same service in the timetable without the Expert 101. Everything was fine untill I reached Hanau. It got very blurry but it did not crash this time. I went out of the train then the ICE T drove away and the textures got sharp again. I think the problem is Hanau. Maybe its to big or to many layers. Even I deactivated some.

 

Sorry but I have to give some feedback. I drove a freight train from Flieden to Fulda no blurry textures! It was the timetable without the Expert.

 

The problem is not only in Hanau, Frankfurt Hbf is also interesting after arriving from Hanau....... in general, I find that it is important what you are traveling with, how often the external camera is used and what other trains you meet on the way, etc. ....it's absolutely impossible to do it here and now, it's a bit different sometimes and sometimes earlier and sometimes later......
anyway it's a big problem and it makes the "game" completely unplayable in cabin mode, it's very unpleasant

 

The only tolerable form .... an outside view and the camera as high as possible, or as far away from the train as possible

 

Unfortunately, even after arriving in Fulda, it's blurry.... so clearly worse condition

 

Iam playing it on ps5 had also track textures go low res as your driving normally happens approximately ten to Fifteen minutes in on most services then often freezes and crashes

 

There's something absolutely broken with this games memory usage. I refuse to believe that the game itself fundamentally overwhelms the memory, there has to be something they can do to better optimize it.

I am not surprised this is an issue on the Frankfurt route. It definitely seems to be directly connected to routes that activate/layer many DLC. As soon as I saw them advertising how this route would be as varied as Dresden I figured "I bet its gonna have the blurry texture issue". Which is a shame, because we all want that varied traffic and layering, but it seems to overwhelm the game as it is currently built.

The saving grace with the US routes, which typically don't have nearly as much traffic/layers, is I haven't seen one US route have the blur issue (which doesn't mean it can't happen but at least so far they seem spared).

 

A slight blurring of the outer texture of Dosto cab, white stripe, occurs even on BR 111 services after arriving at Salzburg Hbf. It also happens on the way, for example Traunstein, Freilassing, but then it is resuscitated

Before Patch 3, I also tried the maps of Vorarlberg and Semmeringbahn, and there I generally did not encounter any blurring ... I suspect the floor sets a little, there it is practically always to a different extent and sometimes even in the background with the textures in the cabin.

But the worst, dare I say catastrophic, is the Frankfurt Fulda map, there it happens across the spectrum .... even the ICE 3 service is strengthened, the only player service in the morning from Frankfurt to Hanau .... there it is already blurry, including the external textures around Offenbach.

 

Couple of screenshots of Dresden - Riesa maps ....

 

In my case I just had the texture issue on Frankfurt Fulda and Kassel Würzburg.

 

I had a texture issue on the SEHS DLC. And it always rained.

 

Local findings
Map Linke Rheinstrecke, service BR103 (IR 2130 I think) Mainz - Koblenz, no problem, no blurring.
I'm really starting to think, of course it could just be a coincidence, that the problems are especially on maps where I operate Dostos cars, etc.

 

Same issue on the LNER Azuma between Peterborough and Doncaster on PC, all settings maxed.

 

These are never ever max or ultra settings, at most in a low resolution and / or below 100 screen percentages.
Just look at the overhead line and the masts, the surroundings also look quite fuzzy.

 

It seems there is either a bug preventing the game from rendering everything properly, or the game is unable to be rendered properly due to memory issues.

 

I just ran from Frankfurt to Kassel. Texture issue popped up in Hanau, and stayed blurry all the way to Fulda. After route hopping onto KWG the issue went away and didn‘t come back.

 

Exactly the issue, everything looks fuzzy.

 

I think we have to deactivated some layers on Frankfurt Fulda until the issue is solved. I ran a service from Frankfurt Süd to Fulda with the Flixtrain. No blurry textures! Now I am testing ICE 1 Fulda to Frankfurt.

 

Bei mir war 2-3 min schon alles unscharf, ist auch beim anderen Strecke nicht nur Frankfurt-Fulda

 

But here we are on thethread of PS5 .. you probably have a PC
On PS5 I have not this settings

 

I found a way for me to get the route Kinzigtal playable. I made 3 runs so far from Frankfurt Süd to Fulda, from Fulda to Frankfurt Hbf and Frankfurt Hbf to Hanau. No blurry textures at all. Sadly I had to deactivated a lot of layers but still better than getting blurry textures all the time. Also using just custom weather. Thats the way I am playing this route until the next update.

 

I've been looking for a similar path, but I can't find a suitable configuration..... share with us your layers and weather settings?

 

These are my deativated layers.

RB85 Maintalbahn
ICE3 Kassel-Würzburg
TGV Mediterranee
RE59 Bremen-Oldenburg
IC+Taurus
NJ Semmeringbahn
Manifest 1
Manifest 2
RB56 Maintalbahn
RB58 Bremen-Oldenburg
Laaers Vorarlberg
103 Linke Rheinstrecke
Eanos
RB49 Bremen-Oldenburg
RB10 Kassel-Würzburg
BR45 Maintalbahn
RB12 Niddertalbahn
RB61 Maintalbahn
RB53 Bremen-Oldenburg
RB34 Maintalbahn
RB52 Maintalbahn
RE70+68 Bremen-Oldenburg
RE9 Bremen-Oldenburg

And I am using all custom weather without rain. For me this worked so far.

 

When I look at it, you don't have almost any DLC Layers turned on .... this is definitely something bad about TSW5

EDIT: I have no idea what activates the Roos-t and Uacns layers ... because cars of this type are nowhere to be seen when parked, and in the train manifest I activate them directly from the given manifest layer. I have no influence on these two layers ... especially ... or whether an AI train from Uacns or Roos-t will ever pass somewhere, I have no idea

 

I removed the layers from your list. Texture decay repeated in front of Hanau station. Texruries have broken all over the map and all trains.

 

Ok where are you playing the game? console or pc?

 

PS5

 

Ok I don't know if it works on the PS5 too but for me on the Series X its ok so far.

 

Unfortunately, it doesn't work so well on PS5 ... I also tested the condition where all layers were removed and only the RE50, 51, 55, Dosto train sets were left, and even then you can sometimes achieve erasing, especially the outer textures of the minimal white stripe on the Dosto set. There must be an error somewhere in the kernel, because otherwise it is not normal ....
And what's more, what once works relatively well, then on the same connection, but at a different time, it fails again...

 

I drove between LA yesterday. and San Bernardino. The game worked flawlessly. No texture decay.

 

I think I already mentioned it here, I suspect that Dosto car is behind it in general in connection with the complexity of the map and traffic ...... on maps where there is no service I do not notice any problems .... Vorarlberg, Semmering and yesterday on Kassel-Wurzburg no problem..... I noticed problems around Salzburg on the Rosenheim - Salzburg map, then near Drazdan on Drsden - Riesa and the fatal one is Frankfurt - Fulda ....... we didn't test the others ......

but it could just be a coincidence... TSW5's behavior is practically unpredictable

 

London Brighton and southeastern high speed had this but it did get patch so we just need to hope it will get patched again

 

Just a little thing like that. When the Tankers layer in the Frankfurt-Fulda map is turned off, the layer of the same name is also turned off in the Maintahlbahn and Semmeringbahn maps.... I really enjoy TSW5
