    I cannot figure out how to do any of the Mastery Challenges. I'm logged in to the Dovetail network, but none of the challenges progress. Winter Challenges 2021 - Tier 1 "Lovely Weather for a Train Ride" says (Drive 15 miles/24km on any Route). I've driven many many miles, and it still reads 0/24000. What am I doing wrong??

    Same here (PS4). Level 220 in the game now, but no progress on any mastery. It just was not meant to be, so I logged off from Dovetail Live. Don't look back in anger...

    I'm only like level 37 I believe. I wonder if it is because we're on the PS4 platform? Pretty lame.

    DTG are aware of the problems.It has been listed under the ‘In Production’ section of the road map for a while now,but unfortunately we are still waiting for a fix. Shame as the Winter challenges would of been nice to complete.

    hello. You have to log in dovetail, and after you are registered, do what each route requires you to do. but you have to have a Dovetail account of the game. you have playstation. create user and exit the game, restart and you will see a page to log in. and thats it. ciau mate

    Try ‘integrating’ your account
    - ensure you are logged in via the game on console
    - go to this URL https://live.dovetailgames.com/live/train-sim-world/community
    - click on ‘account’
    - ‘integrations’
    - click on Xbox/PlayStation or Steam based on your platform
    - for PlayStation after clicking the banner for it a sign in for psn appeared where I was able to authenticate and link DTG to PSN.
    - Mastery info that had not updated in months showed item performed tonight as new item

    I might add the info update was seen primarily on the web page in the Beta logbook update section under ‘my profile’ … unclear if the in game panel updates as yet

    … but checking in-game today my Bakerloo Tier 1 status was updated based on re-doing tutorial after linking with steps I outlined. So it does appear to be somewhat integrated and working now for me. Good luck!

    I've successfully integrated it to Playstation, now I'm going to give it a go with a New York Subway Scenario.

    Unless there is a waiting period, or if I have to log off and then back on...it still didn't record my progress. ☹

    I tried it and it seems to be recording from now on, i.e. from the integration. Past progress is not recognized.

    Ok, this will probably be the last time I comment on this topic. I had the Winter Challenge completed, half of Sand Patch, all of Schnellfahrstrecke Köln, some of Long Island Railroad, and Sherman Hill. I just checked, and every achievement I unlocked, is now back like I didn't complete them. I give up.

    Yes, that seemed to be similar for me. Or at very least time/sync had to take place (day?) or a quit game and reload at minimum. The Mastery progress items on my list have been updating but quite delayed and not sure of the actual time or trigger. Anyhow, glad it maybe has helped you somewhat.

    Aaaaand it's gone
    Back to square one
    Running an unreliable system is no fun.

    So I'm back to disconnect Dovetail live again...

    I logged out of my DTG account on my PS4 and then logged back in,following some good advice on this thread.Straight away my progress on Schnellfahrstrecke Köln had been reinstated and part 2 of the winter challenge had been completed. Also other challenges from a couple of other routes had also reappeared.However after completing a small service to see if it registered on part 1 of the winter challenge as of yet it hasn’t but that might be due to the delay previously mentioned.Will certainly keep on eye on it now there seems to be progress :)
