Loco Avanti West Coast Class 805 Add-on Feedback Thread

What platform are you on please, what service was it and what route please

 

Xbox series x It usually happens with any service that the 805 service that it has been injected into but it can happen if the 805 just appears as I can go from enjoying train sim to looking at my Xbox dash board as the game crashed so to answer your question any service and i found it crashed recently on Birmingham to crewe route that the 805 appears on but it also crashes when I try to do any route on the WCML scenarios as well.

 

Hi Kezz I have played service 9R26 0707 to Birmingham New Street on PS5 and at the Disused Norton Bridge I was approaching a red signal (applied emergency brakes as I thought I was going to overshoot) I came to a stand and tried to retake power but I couldn't move until I realised...

 

Hi, I can't repro this, would you mind trying to do it again at a different location go from full power to emergency brake to see if it occurs again, that way I can check the issue

 

Hi Kezz, I'll test it again tonight after work.

 

many services, usually 350s, don’t seem to be following the timetable. for a while now i’ve felt that this timetable is quieter than some of the others, i’ll add some examples below to better explain the issue.

Example 1:


in this example, 2T33 has arrived at tring but has failed to register that, meaning that it has also failed to become 2T34 and leave towards euston, therefore holding up me (2T35)

Example 2:



in this second example, 2K29 is running as per the timetable, but 2K27 is nowhere to be seen. my assumption is that either it didn’t leave euston as it was supposed to, or it just didn’t spawn at all. however, at berkhamstead it is shown to be only 10 minutes late, but if it is 30 minutes late to watford it cannot be only 10 minutes late to berkhamstead

Example 3:
i haven’t got a screenshot of this one, but it shows 2T32 being 30 minutes late to hemel hempstead (heading southbound), i couldn’t locate the specific train on the map but it meant that between watford and tring i didn’t pass a single 350 on the slow line which is highly unrealistic

 

Finding I’m getting out of memory crashes to dashboard on any 805 services out of Euston on Xbox Series X. This is from a fresh load (no previous runs and not using Quick Resume).

Edit: this is before the level has even loaded in

 

Hi Kezz I tried 9G41 did full power to emergency checked all bogies and they were fine. Tried 9R28 again full to emergency again it was fine. Just driving to Norton Bridge again to see if it just does it there.

Edit 2325, emergency stopped at Norton Bridge and took power again no issues all bogies on the rails....

Must of been a bizarre random event

 

Something that's happening to me but its always doing it when a 805 appears aswell which is making me think of getting a refund as I can't play TSW without it crashing to dashboard as it happens more on the routes like the WCML and the Birmingham to crewe which are my favourite scenarios that I play
