Can anyone work out the 2nd Tier November mastery with regards to the 1 collectable then walk 1km, then walk 10kms within one freeroam scenario? I have tried the actual Free Roam and also walking in a Timetable Freeroam , I walked from Carlisle station all the way to Kingmoor yard and back and nothing registered that I have done any of it, really annoying and frustrating, am I doing something wrong here? Can anyone help and advise how to complete this one please? Thankyou.
Sometimes it takes a while for progress to show up, but if it persists raise a ticket with Support. Take a look at this thread and you will see that it can be a frequent issue... https://forums.dovetailgames.com/threads/monthly-masteries.88909/
Hiya. Yes, I already read that post, I have had nothing but trouble with these monthly masterys for the last 6 months now and have put in umpteen support tickets about it, but ! You guessed it ! Still it continues.
Interesting-- I put in a ticket for problems with October mastery challenges not registering, got a personal email from JD and the problem was sorted within 48 hours
Hiya. Yes I did that and sadly it didn't make any difference, have you completed that particular challenge? If so ! Could you tell me how you did it please? Thankyou.
I've had to raise tickets in 6 different monthly masteries so far this year. How many more do I need to have for my personal email?
There are definitely issues with it (again) already this month. My Tier One campaign shows 2 out of three rainy scenarios as completed but has not registered the distance travelled. Put in a Support ticket but not going to get sorted before Monday so amusing myself in farm Sim 25 and Snowrunner until then.
The counter being stuck is always easily resolved, they just have to kick the server a bit to get it going again. I mostly ignore it nowadays, as the progress still registers in the background and completes the mastery when done.
Hi Foggy. Thankyou for that, it clearly says walk 10 kms though, must have been a misprint, thanks for the advice, I will now drive 10 kms instead of walk and hopefully !! That will complete it. Thanks again Foggy, much appreciated.
The problem is, if you exceed the 80km, will that roll over to start the Tier 2 distance accumulation if Tier 1 hasn’t registered as complete?
Yes, it has resumed the counter in Tier 2 without issues. It does start at zero though, as it always does.
Make that 7 months, the 'November Rain' bit worked yesterday (got to 2/3), but it's become stuck today. Ticket raised. What a flipping palaver.
Hi did you complete this in timetable on foot or actally in free roam mode? iv never used free roam before and have no clue how to do this i did manage to spawn a train by randomly hiting buttons and found it on th d-pad but all signals are red so cant drive 10 foot letalone 10 km
You have to set a path in free roam. Click on the train in the map, set path and then on your preferred destination. Then the signals will clear.
Logging the bug report just gets the generic/AI response from "John". "Thank you for reaching out to Dovetail Player Support and reporting the issue with the November Monthly Mastery. We understand that after completing three runs, the mileage travelled is not being recorded, even though 2 out of the 3 rain objectives for Tier One have been successfully tracked. It seems this can be a bug-related issue, so we're going to log your report and forward it to our development team for further investigation. Your report has been logged and will be reviewed as part of our ongoing efforts to improve. We really appreciate your keen eye and dedication to making Train Sim World 6 even better! " Hopefully when the Chatham people come back to work in the morning they will kick the server back in to life but it's a shame that Jamie or Alex, whomever is the Mastery "lead" aren't keeping a closer eye on this particularly when the new month rolls over.
Training Center(sic), walk(I ran) to outer loop picking up a collectable on the way, spawn 406, forward full speed. It crashes on the fourth lap at around 320 kph and ends the session but it's enough.
Interesting now I've unlocked Tier 2, have had two attempts at the three part free roam and it has failed to show as complete. First I walked from Torquay to Paignton (got collectibles at both) then spawned in an EMT HST and drove to just outside Newton Abbot (as I had forgotten to set the path). But definitely over 10km. For the second attempt I spawned at the second station before Coryton on CCN, grabbed a collectible, walked to Coryton, spawned in a 142 and this time set a path to drive to Penarth - definitely over 10km. Still didn't register after getting the objective complete at the destination and exiting to the menu. So at a loss how I can get this requirement to actually work!
I drove the Pacer between Coryton and Heath Low Level a few times. Whenever I reached Heath Low Level I changed ends and ran back to Coryton. Did this around 6 or 7 times I think and it counted.
I was wondering if it only triggers if you start your free roam from the spawn on foot option within the Timetable rather from the “Free Roam” box on the top menu. Also using the latter option is just your train, no other traffic. So I’ll try that later. It’s a nice role playing idea from Alex but needs a bit of polish.
I did free roam the free roam mode, rather than spawn on foot in timetable mode. I spawned at Liepzig hbf, collected a collectable, then walked to (I think) the next station a long. (Unsure if that's actually 1km away or if walking around the station a bit to find a collectable also counted). After that I spawned a random train, set a destination to a distant station (which was actually way more 10km away) and drove there and it counted. (For context I used Dresden Leipzig as it's route mastery has a collect a collectable and then walk 1km so I figured I'd get both at once)
Out of curiosity then, how did you conclude your free roam as the only way I can end it is via the pause menu and back to Main Menu. Either still sat in the driver’s seat or disembarked onto the platform. Maybe that’s where I’m going wrong?
So I thought I would see if I could have better success from my PS5 sub account which is still linked to my main DTL one. To The Trains, Route Screen, WCML South, Free Roam. Spawned in at Bushey and grabbed a collectible (scarf). Walked to Watford Junction which is further than 1km and grabbed another scarf. Spawned a train and drove to Wembley Central which is over 10km. Exited to Main Menu and the objective still remains unchecked. I really don’t know what else I can do to make this work…
That’s what I did too. In fact I have tried it both ways, remain in the cab and shut everything down then exit to the platform. They used to call me “The Destroyer” At work in the Control, because whatever desk I sat on, some catastrophe usually manifested with the train service. I’m beginning to think that mantra has transferred to this Monthly Mastery.
We have found that the criteria for "I'm Going On An Adventure" was more specific than we anticipated. To begin with, the challenge included the criteria "collect a collectible", but if more than one collectible was picked up it wouldn't count. This has since been relaxed to one or more collectibles. Apologies for any inconvenience this may have caused, but we hope this helps!
Just responded to your update on my ticket too, Chris. I had been pondering earlier if that might have been the case so I’ll repeat my Bushey etc. caper after tea, be careful to only grab one collectible and hopefully get it done.
Submitted a ticket, counter is up and running again, and I now passed the walk/drive/collectible target. Only 200km to go
