Summer Leaves In Winter Season In Any Route

I am experiencing a visual/environment bug in Train Simulator Classic where winter textures are not displayed in Quick Drive, even when the season is set to Winter. When starting a Quick Drive with the season set to Winter, the environment loads with summer / non-winter textures — no snow on the terrain or vegetation — even though winter is selected. This makes the route look like spring or summer instead of winter.

 

Try a normal scenario on the same route as above set in Winter.
Do the tracks appear snowy?

 

same thing with the scenarios so no, they do not appear snowy

 

It must be related to the track textures - if there is no Winter texture you don't get snow.

 

i only get 2 times, then that happens, don't know why

 

It is dependent on the Track in a Route - the Snow is a Texture -
If there is no Texture for Winter you don't get snow on the track

 

Thanks for the explanation — that makes sense. So if I understand correctly, this route simply does not include winter texture variants for terrain/vegetation, which is why selecting Winter in Quick Drive does not visually change anything. In that case this is not really a bug in the game or in Armstrong Powerhouse, but a limitation of how the route was built and which seasonal textures were provided by the route author. That explains why winter works on some routes and not on this one.

 

also, this happens when i create a consist

 

What has creating a Consist got to do with Weather on a Route?????

 

i mean, when i create a consist, summer leaves appear on the winter

 

When you create a consist you are in the Editor
Only when you Play the Scenario does it apply the Weather Conditions

 

only when i create a consist when i'm in the editor

 

You cannot create a consist when you are running a Scenario

So I have no idea what you are wittering about

 

Possibly reflects the default state that it picks up for editing purposes. I used to have a freeroam scenario set at night (named aaaa or similar so it appeared first in the list) and whenever I went into the editor it was nighttime. Deleting that scenario 'fixed' it - but I never followed up to really work out the reasons behind it. As Peter says - just ignore it - it only affects the editor - once you re-run that scenario then it should apply the correct weather.

 

no i mean, when i go to the create consists option i create one, but when i go to the game there's no winter leaves

 

Is it the same route you created the consist on?
And is it the same route you were having Winter Textures with before?

 

I recall a discussion from years ago that some freeware routes are missing winter assets, or possibly there was an alternative format (naming convention) earlier which is now not available, might also be related to some being zipped some not.

It is content error, contact the author of the route / asset pack that you are playing.

If you are authoring yourself, observe Kuju assets carefully, they're generally working.
