    Hey DTG Alex and Chris, any news on fixing the bug/problem? Back in December, at the Discord QAs you told me a fix would be coming in January. Now is the month almost over and we still can't use all the DLCs we bought. Me and other users are getting really frustrated with the situation.

    DTG Harry My game has started to crash on load at 83+ DLCs installed, any update on this?

    Thanks in advance!

    Morning!

    Is this happening just as you've installed 83 DLCs? For example if you uninstall one of them, will it still crash?

    The fewer installed, the less likely it is to crash.

    Once you get to the 80+ region is when problems start to occur.

    New issue:

    On the off chance that I have managed to load the game with every single piece of DLC installed, the game doesn't actually recognise that I own everything.

    For example, it didn't pick up the fact that I had Long Island Rail Road installed, which then affected layers with other content.

    DTG Harry, are the team aware of this issue also?

    Hi BBIAJ ,

    If I've understood you correctly, you can now install everything without crashing on launch, so you have gone way above the previously assumed limit?

    The issue with layers sounds similar to the add-on mounting issue we've seen on PlayStation. That investigation is still underway.

    It still crashes on launch 9 times out of 10!

    Roughly 86 DLC seems to be the sweet spot, so I have resorted to only having installed the routes that I currently want to be concentrating on, along with their respective layered content.

    Ideally though, I would just like to have everything installed all at once, as intended, as I have more than enough space on my Xbox Series X Galaxy Edition with a 2TB internal SSD.

    Thanks BBIAJ

    We've also heard from several other players on Xbox Series X that have every add-on installed and have never had any issues with launching the game. It seems like there is a another factor we are missing here.
