Road Map Train Sim World 5 Roadmap: June 2025

One thing on the roadmap that now it's time it moved is the great western remaster,yes I know it's a project that Liam does in his spare time ,but it does seem like it's been nearly completed since time began

 

Yeah that's what's happening, a weekday and Sunday timetable. Alex did mention it should have been clearer on the roadmap but that's what it is

 

one timetable is for the weekday which will be busy and the other is for the weekend which isnt as busy.

A nice compromise to help with performance while keeping all the layers available, perhaps?

 

No, just to have the two very different timetables available to utilize. Like with San Bernardino.

 

Yeah so the Sunday service only sees the TFW, EMT and Avanti services operating with the Northern and TPE services cancelled at short notice, you load up the sim and it places you in the cab but then says "cancelled due to lack of guard, return to mess room". Very authentic stuff

 

You have to remember that it is done in his spare time on top of what he is already doing. Remember he was also pulled into fixing wcml and further improvements to wsr. On top of his personal life. He does not have a ton of spare hours lying around. Then he is also a 3rd party as well. He basically took a tsw2020 route and overhauled it. That will take a long time as a solo developer. It doesn't come quick unfortunately so you will have to be more patient.

 

Well, gwe remaster is a passion project done by a single dev in his free time.

North london line is also a solo developer project. It might be a short distance, but that does not make the job easier. NLL is a complex and dense route and knowing the developer, he will make it as detailed as possible. So expect it to take a while. Unless you want him rushing it

Things don't get made overnight unfortunately

 

What will be the difference between the two timetables?

 

The Sunday one (naturally) will be lighter, fewer services run on Sundays.

The weekday timetable will be the busiest of the two.

 

You have to remember that GWE remaster was announced for TSW5. So, that is the game that it should come out for. It should not come out for another game, like how the SKA timetable was announced for TSW4 but still hasn't been officially released across all platforms two years later. If these "passion projects" are going to take a lot of time then so be it, but let's be a little more honest then and hold off on these ridiculously early pronouncements. Of course it is difficult to get the timings for these things perfectly right, but I would argue that more than one year to likely release time is much too far ahead to announce something.

Let's also remember that in the case of SKA at least, DTG has some blame to take as they moved the goalposts over time in regards to content and layers. I would not be surprised if this is happening behind the scenes for GWE as well, especially since we have had all this recent content released for the "old" GWE timetable.

I don't think it's appropriate to just casually disregard those who are questioning when content will come out. DTG are the ones who are hyping this stuff so it is also on them to provide honest updates, although admittedly they seldom do this.

 

The difference is that the BR111 pack included a loco and rolling stock. This pack won‘t. You will have to have the Expert 101 besides. That‘s the difference. It‘s also why I referred to New Journeys because it included an EMU and adjusting for inflation but in turn the lack of an included train 5€ is absolutely the maximum. I agree that the scenarios might be more complicated but you cannot overlook the fact that you are just buying a handful of scenarios and a timetable… no rolling stock whatsoever

 

Because the value isn't where the stock is for a gameplay pack, but for the gameplay itself. Looking at included or non-included stock is a bit of a miss IMO, because ultimately, how much does it really matter if you're actually having fun playing the game at the end of the day?

The 101 Expert gameplay pack for KWG is solely intended for expert players who are looking to get more out of the 101 Expert/Cab-Car. The free timetables are good but will not offer the full depth that the pack will offer. It also makes use of a lot of unused potential out of Kassel-Würzburg. The value was never intended to be from the inclusion or disinclusion of stock, but instead capitalises on the strengths of both the 101 Expert and the route it is on. Just my two cents.

 

was there any word on pc editor update

 

i know unreal 5 isn't going to happen any time soon maybe not at all but on may road map matt said nanites don't work on movable skeletal mesh and that what train is in unreal. now i don't know what version of unreal 5 they used but i think in unreal 5.6 they fix that or added that where nanites work on movable skeletal mesh i think.

 

Mijn vraag is of er meer Nederlandse routes komen
Maar ook Nederlandse treinen

 

Please post in English!

 

NL: Gelieve in het Engels te posten, aangezien dit een Engelstalig forum is. Voorlopig zijn er nog geen nieuwe Nederlandse routes of treinen aangekondigd. Zo'n aankondigingen gebeuren doorgaans tijdens de maandelijkse roadmaps, of mogelijk ook in augustus, als TSW 6 wellicht aangekondigd wordt.
