East Coast Way Remaster Discussion Thread.

You were probably having issues with a conflict between the Windows Update and the out of date nVidia drivers.

 

Only thing that bugs me is the 313 still having rocket ship starts off the line

 

The route is definitely transformed, it looks so much better.

I was caught out by the four timetables. I was going to come on moaning about the lack of traffic and why was the 313 timetable using AI times. Then it occurred to me I had chosen the wrong timetable!

The 313 does seem to be quite twitchy, I have noticed in the past but it seemed more noticeable today. I do find the track joint sounds on the 313 do seem quite loud compared to the motor sounds.

 

I think it’s fine actually on acceleration curve, it’s just that it moves immediately and quickly as soon as you move into notch 1

 

Genuinely would prefer to see NTP get remastered, and not because I'm going to parade the whole "BR better, modern sux lol". I actually enjoy driving BML, even if it doesn't look the best (I play with the 700 timetable made by a modder). NTP is a route I would love to enjoy but I genuinely cannot even play for more than a few minutes with how poorly it has aged.

 

Thanks

 

Loving the remaster and the 171 timetable(s) so far. No issues with blurries either. I have to say it did feel a bit strange running the 395 charity railtour service driving it somewhere other than SEHS. (And probably our character was wishing to be on SEHS with it whilst running at 10mph through Lewes...)

 

There are a very large amount of people running that particular set of Nvidia drivers as they have improved performance under Win11 and are one of the most well thought of releases in the past few years.

 

The night lighting really is something else! Lewes looks incredible. Let’s hope the night lighting improvements are a little taster for what’s to come in Medway Valley line too!






And Southease too!

 

I rarely buy content on day one, but the pricing for the rolling stock and timetable pack seemed fair, and I wanted it to complement the remaster. I must say, I am positively surprised by this one. I really enjoyed my first drive from Brighton to Seaford. I would even go so far as to say that I prefer this over the GWE remaster. I generally favor non-linear routes, and I have always had a soft spot for East Coastway.

Well done. I am hoping for a remaster and extension of London–Brighton next. I would love to see not only London Bridge, as many have suggested, but the entire Thameslink core. King’s Cross would be a great place to hop if the routes to Peterborough, Cambridge, or Bedford are ever added to the game.

 

I’m surprised that I agree with this, it’s not even one of those ‘better than others & tolerable’ but actually a route I’ve enjoyed night running on.

Granted I’ve given the night runs a smidge of fog for the volumetric lighting, but I think this is by far the best night experience I’ve had in TSW.

 

Something is wrong with the glass surfaces on both the 395 and 375 for me post update, I've disabled all mods to no avail.
