Route Mildmay Line Feedback Thread

Is the extension to Richmond guaranteed or just an aspiration?

 

Its guaranteed as far as I know.

 

Thanks but I'd like that guarantee from DTG before I part with any cash! There's no mention of it on the Steam store page hence my scepticism.

 

Its been mentioned on the last few road maps.

 

But not in today's unless I've missed it. Anyone from DTG able to give an update to a potential purchaser?

 

I searched the Roadmap thread for "Mildmay" and it didn't turn anything up - missed that small bit at the bottom of the screen you posted, thanks.

 

I’m on Xbox series x and for some reason I can use a class 166 (GWR) to drive/ sub in for the class 378 odd only just recently appeared after GWE remaster/ hotfix patch

 

The 166 spawns as a 3 car followed by a 2 car, except when I did it it spawned with the "inner" coach of the 2 car unit facing the wrong way;

 

Why was the 166 added to this route? It doesn’t look right. Plus it’s a slog to drive at slow speeds.

 

I can only assume it was a mistake

 

Has there been any news on the extension to Richmond yet. I cant find anything nor heard anything.

 

There is a bug on London Overground - Mildmay Line. Trains arriving at Highbury & Islington station, platform 3 are colliding with the bridge wall.



EXPECTED BEHAVIOR:
Trains should not come into contact with the bridge wall when driving past it.



ACTUAL BEHAVIOR:
Retaining wall is positioned too close to the tracks, causing trains to collide with it when passing.



REPRODUCIBILITY:
Always



HOW TO REPRODUCE THE BUG:

1. Start TSW on Playstation 5 console
2. Select London Overground - Mildmay Line route.
3. Select Timetable mode
4. Select Class 378 train
5. Select timetable 2Y58 STRATFORD - CLAPHAM JUNCTION 06:44
6. Begin playing the service



When approaching Highbury & Islington Station, you will pass under the bridge. The left side of the train will collide with the bridge support, as it it is positioned too close to the tracks. Switch to external train view and you will have a better view of the train clipping into the retaining wall.

 

That`s not what a Class 378 sounds like.

 

Birmingham to Crewe had horrendous blurring issues on console, but All Aboard Studios actually did try and solve it. They made it better, it not fully gone.

Incredible trains not even bothering to try and lessen the blurring after all this time is appalling. I know it's a core issue, but as AABs and Firefly have shown, it can be mitigated.

 

AAB made steps to solve it? I can't even play the route with it's main train, the Class 350, being turned on without it immediately becoming a blurred mess

 

I did a service the other day and it blurred for a short while around Smethwick, before easing up (not going back to full detail though). Maybe time of day is a big factor?

 

The AI class 345 and 720 pantographs are not raised to contact the overhead wires. This was noted at Stratford Station. On top of that, the headlights and driver were on the wrong end as the train was moving in the other direction.

 

There is a broken piece of track between the NLL and the WLL meaning that it is impossible to run AI services in Scenario Planner on a modded system. A bit of a shame as it is about the only piece of the WCML lines at Willesden that it is impossible to see trains run on.

Also could you please ensure that there are more markers placed on this route when the extension is produced. At the moment there are very few on loops at Stratford, at Highbury / Camden and at Willesden TMD meaning that these cannot be used in scenarios even though they would be very handy. You can only do so much with a mod. Scenarios - Proof Of Concept - Mildmay

Finally would you go to the trouble of updating the little bit of MML between St Pancras and West Hampstead. I have run a service along this and can see that much of the scenery work is done. It would be lovely, and a surprise, if this short bit of line could be brought into play.
Thanks
