Wcmls Major Update (december 2024)

I had it the same with North Wembley I did log a ticket for it I did, if everyone else logs tickets hopefully something will be done about it. I was doing a Watford to London Euston run. I got a very good reply from DTG Lukas so thanks for the quick response as well Lukas!

 

Are using the 5 car or 4 car formation I'm on xbox x so its not the same but the 5 car formation kept crashing but the 4 car was ok

 

Yeah, i've managed to complete 2C15 service now whit no more other crashes, but i saved at some station in case would crashed again

 

I've reported it when I was given the option on my console. Whether anything is actually done about it is another thing, the information is out there for DTG to do something about. All the long term commitments to the WCMLS seem to be evaporating and it is just becoming a complete pain to enjoy. Anyway thats just for me personally...

Interestingly, yes, it was a a 5 car 710! Such a bugged route, where glitches are so unspecific.

 

DTG Alex DTG Harry DTG Liam when can we expect these missing timetable layers?

 

Layers NOT present in this update which should hopefully follow soon:

ROG 37 Class 710 ECS moves
Class 150 Marston Vale Line
Static Stock from Diesel Legends
JNA freight
MFA freight
RHTT
Class 87 Railtour
Flying Scotsman Railtour
Class 87 Sleeper
Static Stock from WSR

As soon as we can get these back, we will. Matt


Current Reality...............

 

Is the 66 freightliner on your homepage from creators club?

 

It's a mod that adds a separate loco to the game.
Class 66 Freightliner (Legacy/Addon) - Train Sim Community

 

Class 350 AI services are broken, tail lights at driver cab and the PIS display "Not in service" instead of the destination. This was one IA service to Tring caught when waiting to depart Watford in one 710 service to Euston

 

Had the same as well. ALso seen the same on 390s when they are entering London Euston it will say Destination Notin service and then Next stop Milton Keynes. Broke it all again. How on earth it has happened by fixing a somewhat simple fix has now broken many other things.

 

That's the dangers of software. Fix one thing, it breaks another.

Although, its happening way too often to be believable.

 

Entirely speculation on my part but I believe Liam is doing the majority(?) of the fixing and if it's just him I can see why it's taking a while. Also speculation, but they could possibly be waiting for the release of the Cardiff City route to utilise things like the new Class 150. This is probably just copium on my part and I do completely agree that the lack of communication regarding these updates has been ridiculous.

 

You make very valid points indeed. its a shame that no one from DTG can be bothered to give its customers an update.

 

That last update really messed the 350s up all lights are on at the front and nothing on the back all destination read london euston on not in service I just a london to Birmingham and destination was not in service they fix one problem but create 10 more

 

Obviously no testing was done on the route before the patch release .

 

Crashed again just outside of Euston...driving a stopper all the way from MK too! It's like whack-a-mole with this route, one problem fixed, another handful created.

 

You forgot to add broken Refresh Referb scenario.

 

Yep it crashed for me about a mile outside Euston on a Tring to Euston service. Mind you it was heavy sleet and I was streaming live to YT at the time (PS5). The framerate dropped to 23FPS then the PS5 said hasta la vista baby!!!

 

DTG Matt can you please help me ?
I've been trying to do the MCML South, Rail Journey, All Weather Wagon scenario 6M77 in mid December but find regardless what I do with sand ect my train stalls on the hill at the beginning of the route and loose traction and roll backwards. Mainly because of the weight of the train and the icy track. Can you please look to see if it is possible to do this scenario and advise what I need to do to get out of Acton Depot.
Best regards
Alan Gibson

 

I have done this i think had to brake the speed limit to make up and over the short steep grade

 

Just a pendolino run have they done something to it going 125 and feels like you only 50 feels slow. Also with that aws just before Milton Keynes station no matter what speed you it pently brakes me

 

Apologies Liam, just been talking on TSC Discord to someone and they said that this is basically been ruled out? If so, understandable cause of the GWE Remaster but still a massive disappointment as the amount of missing services would give it more life on the AI side.
Again, thanks for your hard work with WCML as where it was released it was in a terrible horrible state and it is in a much more better state now thankfully because of you

 

Just noticed that post-Mildmay release, there's a few 378s appearing at Watford. Is this still happening now, or have they all been replaced by 710s?

 

Alright, thanks again Liam. Sorry if I am being an absolute pain and you can just tell me to shut up about and it be patient ahahah. Appreciate it Liam Really do and hope you know that.

 

I speak for myself here but I wouldn't mind the odd 378 showing on the Watford DCs, it add variety to the route. I know 710s have replaced them for the most part to be cascaded to other LO routes, but you do still occasionally get 378s. So I'd personally like to keep that! And prior to their replacement they were the work horses of that line, so it's not as if it's a random unit that has no place there. I really appreciated the 378 layering onto WCMLS as I prefer to drive it over the 710 anyway...

 

He's too polite to do that but I think that's what he's saying.

 

think you are correct mate

 

378 will layer as a substitute of 710 in WCMLS?

 

Has anyone else noticed that the 378 couplings are missing? There's a huge gap between the carriages. Doesn't happen on Mildmay though.

 

Yes, it's quite an eyesore, hopefully fixed soonish.
