So after all my Steam content eventually downloaded for TSW4 I decided to carry on what I was previously doing in TSW3 - journey mode on the Glossop line. The very next service in the journey didn't work! The service was 2G47 Hadfield - Manchester Piccadilly via Glossop (Part 2) After setting up the train (simplified for testing as Key in, Reverser Forward, Unlock Doors) I wait until prompted to Lock Doors. After closing the doors the next instruction didn't appear. In fact the whole black bar at the top left of the screen had disappeared. No waypoint is set for the next stop at Dinting. Pressing T to see the schedule shows that all the objectives are there, except it seems to be stuck on the Load Passengers first step. I restarted the service from the pause menu. Same problem. I went to the timetable and found the service and tried it from there. Same. Loading the same service in TSW3 and it works. Back to TSW4 and it fails. So I then tried a selection of other services in TSW4 that start at Glossop and this list shows which worked and which failed - 2G47 (Part 2) Failed 2G48 (Part 2) Success 2G49 (Part 2) Failed 2G50 (Part 2) Failed 2G51 (Part 2) Success 2G52 (Part 2) Failed 2G53 (Part 2) Success 2G54 (Part 2) Success 2G55 (Part 2) Success 2G56 (Part 2) Failed 2G57 (Part 2) Failed 2G58 (Part 2) Failed 2G59 (Part 2) Success 2G69 (Part 2) Success I have uninstalled Glossop and reinstalled. I have verified integrity in Steam. There are no mods installed and no INI changes. I can't see any logic or pattern to the failures. There is a workaround if you start the preceeding service eg. 2G47 (Part 1) from Hadfield to Glossop, finish the service at Glossop, return to Free Roam, change ends and then start 2G47 (Part 2). That gets past the problem. I will create a ticket for all this, but I'd be interested if anyone else can reproduce the issue or if it's just me!
100% Had this issue happen to me right now on my livestream from glossop station its a real joke after u close doors the top left hud fades away and nothing happens when u get to next station its 100% broken and needs fixing right away
Unfortunate that this happened to you on a live stream but it is a relief that it's not just happening to me! Hopefully it will get fixed, but I won't hold my breath that it will be right away
I got this issue with 2G52 when I was playing through journeys, I thought it was because I had mods installed for TSW4 but it doesn't appear to be that, so it's definitely not you. Will you still be doing a ticket for the bug as you've got more details on it than me.
I did create a ticket but it can't hurt for you to submit one too. In fact the more reports of an issue there are will raise it's profile.
Yeah that is a good point, I'll submit a ticket today after I've gotten some sleep. Hopefully it'll be put on the list to get fixed asap. EDIT: Ticket submitted
Thank you for reporting this. I have had the same issue. Needs fixing as it's not just an isolated journey. Those effected part 2 routes cannot be finished in my case as the hub on the left and next stop indicator both disappear. Please fix. Can someone send me a link to error report and I will send one too.
Submit your ticket on the DTG support site here: Support : Dovetail Support (freshdesk.com) you'll need to sign in with your DTG Live account (same one you use here on the forums if I remember correctly)
Unfortunately, as with a lot of long-standing issues with this game, it is not fixed. It was mentioned in the December 2023 Roadmap, but just said they were investigating. Hopefully fixed soon, but my expectations recently have been lower than ever.
And one month later....still not fixed. These types of issues are the reason why I always wait for deep, deep discounts on all TSW DLC. Charging $40 for broken DLC and doing it with a smile on their faces is .....
What's particularly frustrating with this bug is that it wasn't there when the DLC was released or when I purchased it. The bug appeared with the fanfare of TSW4 and the 'compatible' version of this DLC. DTG already have mine and many other people's money for this content so why would they rush to fix it now. The reported bug was mentioned briefly in the December Roadmap but there has been no comment since. I fear, but realistically expect, this bug to either go unfixed like so many others, or to be hidden behind a paywall of the inevitable TSW5.
Same here, with 2G52 just a few minutes ago. This needs fixing - especially as it seems to be on several of the routes.
Yeah have just had this happen just now so journey mode cannot be completed yet another broken product without a fix in 5 months.and no reply from dtg. Just had a look at time table and I dud complete service 2g52 part 2 but now in journey mode it fails. That means that one of the first updates to this route has broken some services.
I only just seen this, I too have an issue with this route, it has stopped working altogether now, I've tried various times and each time it crashes with a send report box. Not happy as it did work for a while. Col.
Thanks for linking me to here and also for the list, very helpful! I found the cause of it and it should now be fixed in todays update! I checked it just now on my own PC and 2G57 now shows its next objective to Dinting. Apologies for this occurring but I hope you can enjoy these services from now on.
I've just tested all the services that failed on the latest update and can confirm they all work, after locking the doors at Glossop the objective updates to stop at Dinting. Thanks Joe
Can confirm now all fixed Thanks Joethefish, can I send my bug reports straight to you from now on? Joking obviously
2G52 (Part 2) has also been fixed with the Spring core update. Thank you so much, Joethefish, for getting this fix to us. We really appreciate it!
I re-downloaded it again, just did one trip and it seemed OK. I was stuck doing the download, couldn't find what to do to get it back then I noticed in the list I had the tick box unchecked, once i did that it started the download, I am still learning things about Steam. Col.
