First of all thank God I can save my liveries on PC. The latest update has seemingly erased any in game livery saves that Ive done for ecw. Spent lots of lockdown hours painting up the class 66. I hope console players haven't been dealt this set back.
Yep. Us console players have this issue too. It’s probably due to copying liveries; I copied a few and then it removed them all, which I was pretty irritated with.
These are just pointless conspiracies. That's just likely the same bug affecting the 377 before. How it is possible that a patch is released with such an obvious bug (not a random one), remains unclear to me. DTG at its best, as always.
Guys, please stop suggesting something. We dont know how that happened and since it wasnt on the patch log, it wasnt on purpose. So please stop "conspiring" something. That is neither helpful nor constructive. Report that bug via the technical forum, via the support tickets and be patient.
Surely if they wanted to do that, they could just, I dunno, remove the livery editor? Or block access to wherever that livery manager mod can get liveries from? Posting such conspiracy theories with little to no information is, frankly, stupid and far from helpful.
Theres no conspiring. People arent daft. Its dark humour, something that dosent seem to land on these forums. Something annoying happens, best to make light of it.
I didnt read that as sarcasm and without marking it as sarcasm it can and will be read as a serious thing. People tend to forget that or use the sarcasm-thing as an excuse. Sorry. I think stuff like that doesnt belong in here if you are not able to mark that as sarcasm.
I've updated and all my saved liveries for all routes are still available in livery editor? Including some from ECW. ***EDIT*** Just seen the previous comment..... Not tried anything on ECW but my SPG reskins all still appear and work in timetabled services. ***FURTHER EDIT*** I've just checked and I am also unable to use reskins in timetabled services on ECW...... So it is not all routes / liveries but looking like maybe just ECW affected.
Ok. Its a train sim game, couldnt care less about conspiracy's. Sometimes conversations about future projects let the imagination run. Cant see anything wrong with that. Now Im as sure as can be that this isnt a Licensing related action. What I and others DO know, is a similar issue with livery designer resulting in work being lost, has happened, and recently. You cant begrudge people having memories.
I agree, nothing better then creating positive conspiracy theories of what fun content could be coming to TSW2 in the future.
Thanks for raising the livery issue to us; we're aware and are working on a fix, which we'll launch when we've been able to test it throroughly. This looks like an issue with the UI, rather than any of your saved liveries being deleted, though we appreciate it's not ideal. Thanks for your patience, apologies for any inconvenience caused, and we'll let you know when the fix has been implemented.
What might help people would be to make a list of what files people need to backup so they can save their stuff. Paul
Haha. Thanks for the condolence, I’ve moved on and started again with liveries just because I knew I couldn’t get them back. But thanks again
Are liveries actually deleted or do they just not appear ingame? If I lose any of my liveries I will never use the livery creator ever again. Hours and hours of work at risk at random with updates is unbearable.
It's just not showing in the timetable mode. I think it may be to do with the fact I can now use the GWE 66 on ECW services? Is that new or have I just not noticed it?
No your liveries are still there and they can still be seen in the livery editor. The issue is that you cannot select them to drive in the game..... Liveries do still appear in the game though as AI trains or as part of your own train's consist.
It would appear that some custom liveries are actually working fine...... Basically anything from SEHS is working as it should. I have some class 375 liveries that can still be selected like usual and used on a service and others on Facebook groups are using custom liveries on the class 395 and the new class 465. So for whatever reason..... Whatever bug was introduced with this week's update it is NOT affecting stock for the SEHS route???
If you missed the patch notes - it's been fixed. https://dovetailgames.kayako.com/News/NewsItem/View/196/train-sim-world-2-update---9th-march-2021
Why patch notes aren't on Steam anymore? Last patch notes on Steam are from September last year. It's really annoying to looking everywhere for the patch notes..
