Expansion Gwr Hst Farewell Pack Feedback Thread

Not sure where put this question. Did power car ever have matching coaches so they all looked the same.

 

Not with GWR, But LNER did put a full HST in original livery for a farewell Railtour. (Not my Photo)

So the green carriages are correct.

 

Ok thanks

 

Dived straight into the scenario of driving the last HST out of Paddington. Immersion immediately lost by the fact there wasn't a single, solitary, passenger on the train.

Ridiculous.

 

Some of the jobs in journey are showing like 13 hours to complete cant be right.

 

Was the correct build released this time?

 

Not sure this was suppose to happen ???? Any idea what’s gone wrong here ?



console Xbox series S

 

So trying to the open day scenario but when i get to the part of driving to Paddington. The brakes just keep coming by themselves for no reason.

 

Yeah saw that in Trainsimdrivers livestream

 

Tried resetting physics no train wount even move.

 

have you got safety systems on both ends ??

 

No only the end im driving.

 

Let me know you get on it goes all ok for until after I couple up to the hst then it goes wrong with brakes. I followed all instructions and played with safety system on.

 

I’m right by thinking. It’s the open day
Scenario I saw Paul having issue on that scenario on the live stream

 

Yes sorry

 

Before do have to ride the wheel and jump just out of curiosity

 

Won’t let me change points bugged definitely can’t continue scenario

 

I’m here and change change point so It’s unplayable

 

Huh ok announcements playing with with no mk3’s on interesting

 

Series s

 

Thats annoying im series x

 

Can’t confirm that scenario works on . series S

 

Atleast you done i try again with safety systems off.

 

Turned them on half way to Paddington still no issues

 

I dont what i done wrong then I followed everything like it said. Brakes kept coming on so I reset train physics to see if that help after that just could not move the train. Thanks for helping

 

No problem

 

Shouldn't the thread (and second line in the first post) be "GWR HST Farewell Pack, not "GBR HST Farewell Pack"?

 

In the gwe journey there is a laira depo to old oak depo move. Why are limited to 75mph and not track speed. Poxy wiper bug is back half way down the route the wipers stopped working completey faults switched off this game is starting to grate on me lately.

 

The new services added in Riviera were not properly setup for localization...

 

Because light locos in the UK are limited as follows.......

Line speed up to 60mph - Line speed
Line speed 60-90mph - 60mph limit
Line speed over 90mph - 75mph limit.

 

But its two engines and coaches . So that counts as a light loco. Ok thanks for the info

 

There is no soundproofing in the HST cab when passing a Class 802. When you drive past one with the cab doors shut, you can hear the 802 passing really loudly as if the cab doors are open. I believe the same happens when driving the 166.

 

Can confirm Open Day is also bugged when trying to get out of the depot on PS5. Before you get to the first go via instructions the full brake pressure applies which can't be released. A physics reset releases the brake but not the interlock so you cannot apply power. A shame as I was enjoying the scenario up to that point.

 

I assumed you meant power cars on their own rather than a full HST rake.

 

Ok I ran into the same problem in the Epilogue scenario soon after leaving Plymouth. I realised the common denominator seems to be 43093 Legends of Great Western. For some reason the DSD warnings do not sound when you are driving this train and activate it's DSD (even when this power car is in the rear) so you get penalty braked and can't get out of the interlock. If you keep DSD off (AWS is fine) for both of these scenarios you should be able to complete but means you can't be 2 Plats like Harry!

 

I was driving 43093 on a regular GWE service and thought the DSD was silent. Glad I wasn't going crazy

 

Also found the DSD bug on Xbox in the Epilouge scenario. Not even resetting physics got it going again. (I'm beginning to think resetting physics itself is also broken because it never seems to do LOVE...)

 

Does the DSD issue occur after you switch cabs in the scenario?

 

Can anyone else confirm 43093 is doing this in regular timetable mode?

 

Yes for me on xbox on the time table and scenarios .

 

I didn't have any issues with the Open Day scenario on PS5, however I didn't enable the safety systems until the drive to Paddington instruction

 

Thank you for this. I believe this may prove a theory I've seen, where the systems don't always shut down correctly when changing cabs. It is something I'm looking over tonight with a few other bits reported here and hopefully can get out in an update asap.

 

Have a fix for this now pushed to testers. Thank you for reporting this one.

 

It would be good to see a chance of the new liveries spawning on the player's rear power car and AI trains on the Riviera Line.

At the moment, this seems to be restricted exclusively to the original GWR livery with the steel logo, whereas the new liveries can appear at random on Great Western Express as your rear power car or on AI trains.

 

They should be able too. I'll double check to see if anything has changed on the Riviera timetable but it was set up for random subbing.

 

Is it possible to still have the special liveried HST numbers in the standard GWR / FGW liveries?

Just played a service admittedly on a 165 and 43002 appeared at Paddington but not in Intercity 125 BR blue/grey livery but in GWR livery!

 

For 43002, and probably the same with others, the GWE HSTs used all the real life numbering even for power cars that weren't in GWR green with the metallic side logo. It's not something I can change without DTG's permission but I will ask about it.

 

Thank you everyone for your feedback so far. I wanted to share an update on the issues mentioned so far:

Fixed/In Testing

• Mk1 Barrier Coach texture issues in Livery Designer
• Mk1 Barrier Coach not connecting correctly in Formation Designer
• Mk1 Barrier Coach floating slightly above the rails

• Class 43 safety systems triggering in both cabs after switching cabs
  
• Class 43 improved Raildriver support
• Class 43 duplicate numbering between the unique liveries and the default metallic GWR logo power car
• Class 43 improved horn audio volume
• Class 43 improved track joint audio
• Class 43 missing flange squeal
  
• Class 43 weak interior audio occlusion
• Class 43 missing audio interacting with the front coupler bar
  
• Class 43 missing audio interacting with the EOTD
• Class 43 AI using night lights during the day
• Class 43 '43002' cab door texture smudge
• Class 43 '43002' & '43185' having incorrect vent grill colours
• Class 43 '43185' incorrect numbering font
• Class 43 '43185' incorrect shape of yellow on the lower nose
  
• Class 43 FGB pixelated paint around cab window

• Mk3 improved track joint audio
• Mk3 missing flange squeal
• Mk3 weak interior audio occlusion
  
• Mk3 missing audio interacting with the EOTD

• 'Epilogue' scenario train missing due to broken GWE reference

For the GWE route issues, such as broken passengers or Class 166 announcements no longer playing, this is due to GWE changes that were missed from this weeks update build but hopefully should be pushed out shortly.
