    TODAY IS THE DAY

    [​IMG]


    We’ve seen what it might be, speculated what it might have , debated if it was needed for weeks. The line in the sand is drawn, let’s see what it delivers. I personally am looking forward to 5pm tonight. I'm hoping my old 2080ti can move it along as nice as the streams last night.

    We all want TSW3 to be the best it can so lets start getting our thoughts compiled as we all get access to it.
    I'm looking forward to what this delivers.

    Keep it constructive folks :)

    I will be looking forward to hearing about the performance and the preservation crew route updates.

    Thought the stream was looking good.
    As only a mere pc user I'll be last in the queue to experience the rare delights that await the faithful.

    I too am looking forward to revisiting old routes with new features. I'm eager for 5pm to come and to have a whip up the SEHS line before I go out.

    So my first observation on firing it up is no motion blur toggle in the settings menu.
    Going to see if it appears once I fire up a route, but that's not a good start. I may not be able to play right out of the box.

    Aaand yep, already feeling sick, and no off switch once I load into a route.
    Can anyone from DTG tell me if this is something planned for the day one patch, or should I refund now already? Because there is no way I can play like this, and I can't even gauge performance if I can't actually look at the screen...

    Is it just an effect personal to you or something weird the game is doing?

    I cannot tolerate motion blur postprocessing effects in any game. Lots of people can't which is why it's usually an optional toggle. It causes eye strain, headaches, and sickness.

    My guess is that it's an oversight, and is simply missing from the early access build, since the main reason for non-selectable motion blur was in previous console generations where FPS was so poor at sub-24 that the blurring helped conceal how bad the performance was.

    If I was on PC rather than XBox, I'd go and disable it manually by tweaking the game's files, so that I could go and check how the rest of the game performs.

    I did ask during the Q&A period if the game would be fixed to remember my choice to have motion blur off between play sessions, as TSW2 required you to disable it every single time, and they said the new menu system should remember my options where TSW2 didn't, and they never mentioned in their reply removing the option.

    Yeah, on PC it's easy enough to fix, since you have direct access to the values that the menu options toggle.

    You can also plug in a keyboard if on console and try CTRL + F2.

    Watched two early release streams on the Tube of Sehs and Cajon, and must confess the new lighting is worth the price of admission alone.
    It won't convert the critics, but it's a hell of an improvement over Tsw2.

    Plus the Cajun Pass scenery looks really excellent. Some of the best I've seen.
    Enjoyed it in TS and looking forward to playing it soon.

    I can't play without motion blur. It gives a true sensation of speed.

    Yeah I agree, it's one of the best things about the game, that feeling of speed, in comparison TSC is like riding a horse drawn potato through legoland. The only drawback was the blurry wheels which have now been fixed for new routes going forwards so even better.

    Yeah, I couldn't imagine myself playing TSW without motion blur either. It replicates pretty well what you see looking at the sleepers or nearby scenery when sitting in a train. But I do understand some people dislike it, so an option to disable it should be present.

    Trying fully closing Steam (either via Task Manager or the pop-up box in the bottom right corner) then reloading. That normally does it.

    Thanks for the recent posts. I've had Steam open all day [just in case] but I've had to close and restart Steam which made it immediately ask if I wanted to download and install. An hour until it's downloaded though :(

    Close down steam completely and reopen the app it'll then be there to install.

    So far so good. Have had a play with most things and so far I like what I see. Well done Dovetail, you might have given us a good game. Let's see what happens on the 6th before I shout too loudly. But it does look promising :))

    Why are some ICE services limited to 280 kph and some others to 250 kph on the same stretches in Kassel-Wurzburg? Don't want to create a thread for that so I'm posted it here :)
     
  44. Why is steam so slow! 10mbps takes the biscuit. I know it's not my connection, just downloaded a driver from another server at 600mbps

    The ice3 is a lighter train so due to wind runs a lower speed on the bridges

    Can Steam actually deliver those speeds? (genuine question as I'm looking to upgrade to FTTP)
     
  47. I doubt it.

    Make sure you're reading the units correctly. There is an eightfold difference between MB/s and Mb/s.

    Cheers
