    Can't wait for the next preserved collection, I will get GWR and Northern Trans-Pennine Express. When this comes out I'm just going to get stuck into these.

    Yes, there my favorite and save the best till last is my thinking on this, Northern Trans-Pennine is the longest of them all
    60-mile route and then we get The BR Heavy Freight Pack, it cant get any better.

    does the preserved collection get new 4k textures or any other updates over the 2020 version?

    Yes 4k is on all routes if you are on one x, and with it running on the new UE4 it will run smoother fps
    should get better over time with some updates too..

    this from dovetail
    The preservation work may also bring some performance benefits depending on your platform, but they will be as they are now. Preserved not remastered.

    Yes I am looking forward to receiving those two preserved routes as well, however I will have to ask for another code for GWE.

    Cant wait for GWE I remember when train sim was in the founders edition on xbox one before it came out properly on both consoles,

    They sold it to me instantly with the HST, didn't need anything else.

    I also purchased TPE on tsw and it's a nice commuter route which can be fun, on the original I was torn between it and east coast way they both had points, tpe good pacing and length, east coast way had more modern units.

    Now on tsw 2 we get to combine the best of all routes with the custom scenario editor so I can take (off the rails) the class 377 and class 166 along tpe or possibly my newest love for commuter (lol) the class 422 which I cant drive enough recently.

    And finally cant wait to put the HST on Koln to Aachan to put it through its paces really

    So, I got GWE digitally. Do I need to talk to Customer Support?, or am I good to go when the DLC hits? Thanks.

    It appears to be working for me. I’m laying in bed but I have the Xbox app which says I own NTP. I hope there’s not too many issues tomorrow!

    It should be out by now. If you keep your Xbox on a lot of the time, a restart will refresh the updates and licence checks.

    The Great Western Express is still not free for me yet, do I still have to wait a certain time for it to be free?

    Are you looking in the store or on the manage game screen?

    Under manage game you scroll down and at the bottom you should see GWE ntp which dont have a check in the box and it wont say installed.

    If that's the case click on both and then click save changes and it should install for you

    I received my final two activation codes this morning so many thanks to DTG for their excellent service towards disc owners of TSW2020.

    No, I’m looking on the Xbox store and it’s telling me I have to pay for the GWE.

    Do you know how to find this page in your xbox?

    Go to my games and apps, find Tsw2 press the menu button (the 3lines button in place of start button on controller) select manage game and add ons.

    Then click on the game and it should show you that screen, scroll down to bottom to see add ins not installed. When you find the routes make sure you click them to make a tick appear then press save changes

    If you don't see it as owned, then double check you purchased TSW1 or TSW2020. Game Pass does not give you any ownership of add-ons in TSW2.

    If it's not showing there then I dont know.

    As L89 said, did you own the old Tsw?

    Other than that I'm sorry i couldn't help further and i hope you get it sorted for you. Best wishes

    Do you have TSW2020: Collector's Edition?
    I do know that the initial email I received did say there was a high volume of submissions to process so with more disc versions of the game containing these two addons they might just be a bit overwhelmed with all the requests.

    It is likely there is a delay due to the amount of tickets being submitted at once right now, however I will investigate and get back to you if anything is the matter.

    They missed the suspected release this week. They probably haven’t fixed enough bus to release it. I know you’d be complaining if it were released, and there were bugs, so be happy that they’re taking their time.

    Since you're new to the forum, perhaps you don't know that shouting is unlikely to elicit a response from the community manager.

    Shouting won’t bring it any sooner. Knowing when it will be released won’t bring it any sooner either. Patience.

    There is one reason for my reasonable attitude and that is DTG releasing dlc before I have what I paid for last year.it isn’t an unreasonable thing to shout about unless your a socialist democrat lol.
