Oh dear, I remember when Elite Dangerous messed this up with their lighting so that local stars tint the entire milky way...
I exclusively use it on Series S, as it's basically the only way to play, since I can't tolerate the low FPS of the 4k mode there. I imagine many...
I'm going to be keeping it installed on my secondary drive, and regularly checking in on how they're handling all the issues. I genuinely WANT to...
I would note with regards to Cyberpunk, I drop below 60 when I bump that game's volumetric fog from medium to high. One does wonder why TSW3's is...
Pretty much, it's a MASSIVE performance hit right now. It's almost like they never once during the process tested anything with the weather...
This is my overall experience of TSW3's lighting too.
Yeah, my FPS monitor shows some atrocious dips. I've gone back wholly to TSW2 for now.
This, everything about this, so much this. Cannot be stated enough.
Yellow's a solid choice. Blue can sometimes be too bright.
One problem with GP is how trolls are able to just spam reviews with absolute nonsense, without needing to buy the game to do so..
It's doubly frustrating having to do it every single time, given how we don't have an option for it in the settings menu and need to hook up a...
I actually had to drop it from 4k mode to 1080p mode on Cajon Pass as I was getting 24fps there on my Series X whenever there was rain or fog.
I find TSW3 mostly unplayable for now due to the bugs, lack of features and key menu options, unintuitive UI colouring, horrible flashing and...
I moved TSW2 on to the internal drive to test and yeah, as soon as I plug in the expansion card with TSW3 and all my routes on it, TSW2 drops down...
For now the "easy" fix I was able to implement is "simply" to own two Seagate external storage cards at £350 each :D
Can confirm that removing TSW3 by moving it to another drive and unplugging that drive causes all installed TSW2 DLC to reappear within TSW2....
I currently have TSW2 installed to my Seagate Expansion card and TSW3 installed to the internal drive of my Series S. All TSW2 DLCs are installed...
The very first thing I noticed when firing up my old routes to see how they look in TSW3 was that the snow underneath the coaches on Arosalinie is...
Agreed. A 1440p performance mode would be super helpful for the major FPS impact TSW3 has had over TSW2. Also, given how well FSR 2.0 has been...
The transfer is one way. TSW3 imports your profile and unlocks anything already unlocked in TSW2.
Many of us don't have GP however.
No, windows do a similar thing in TSW2 but because of the different lighting system it isn't as extreme.
My opinion? Not yet. Performance on Series X is questionable. The new effects add a lot of overhead and it can't keep up. The lighting is......
I'm reminded of why I disabled HDR on my XBox, after trying it and then firing up Assassin's Creed Odyssey which had no ingame HDR calibration...
There's a very simple way not to in TSW3 (And just about every game which offers this as an option). Start a new profile, instead of importing all...
Given how the storms invoke a roughly 20-30% hit to FPS on Series X over clear weather, it's a little concerning how often we're seeing them.
One notable frustration with every iteration of TSW on console is how many more clicks it takes to get to stuff each time the UI is overhauled....
If it's white it's unselected, if it's greyed out it's selected is absolute bizarro world logic.
I had a similar experience with the ES44C4. I thought it was down to me not being able to figure out how to set the brakes to lead and cut-in on...
It's generally standard practice and considered good form on the part of the developer, if a new version of a game with the same achievement set...
This has always been a thing with long trains. Going to the rear camera moves you into a different chunk of the map to the front, meaning...
I'd bump brightness down and contrast up on my screen as it does look very faded and washed out. Like an old photograph.
Actually, that specific kind of ghosting only appears with motion blur off. Motion blur hides it by blurring those frames together.
Watch the video and you'll see.
As an aside, I can't complete the training scenario for the ES44, because it never registers me coupling them.
Usually, games will get around this by having cube maps which the game falls back to when objects fall out of screenspace, the more complex you...
On XSX I can confirm that rain storms and fog absolutely tanked my FPS here too, easily getting 24 and lower in 4k mode.
So yeah, this lighting effect is....curious. It's like the train becomes completely detached from the lighting system for the tunnel, and begins...
Nope. They made the worst of all possible worlds choice to remove the semi-functional save completely, meaning if you get a random crash an hour...
It's confusing with how many in the timetable are listed "London St Pancras - London St Pancras"
I still think a brightness slider in the options might be helpful.
That seems off, it's single digit seconds on the XBox.
Motion blur off actually looks more true to reality to my eyes, with the motion blur smooshing the fence posts you pass all together into a smear,...
Another issue in tunnels is when the entire train starts emitting glowing light in a strobing effect rippling down the train. The first time it...
The dynamic weather unexpectedly allowed me to get an idea of the performance overheads of the new storm effects on Series S in a single SEHS run...
On Series S now as I am away from home, and here it seems way more pronounced as it flashes up an entire white semicircle, presumably at the...
Yeah, ctrl-f2 is working, any generic USB keyboard should work on your XBox.
Some of it seems really completely random, where it appears above the track but not in the arc around the tunnel walls, and as individual spots...
Never spotted it running at 4k on XSX before, but it really seems to jump out now. I jumped into TSW2 to check and don't see it with the same...
Can you confirm the game will remember our setting for it? As of right now I have been using Ctrl-F2 on XBox to toggle it, but it still displays...
