So I tried to go to an external cam on Sand Patch Grade after The latest update in the game still crashes when you have long trains and you use the external camera view. There are no issues if you stay in internal camera review. Here’s a point form rundown on when this seems to come up… - I have experienced this on three scenarios. Fully Fueled. Ice and Snow. And Powering America (Pt 2). - I have not tested to see if this happens on a timetable route. Only on the scenarios listed above. - This only seems to affect trains where four engines are required. I have not rigorously tested other trains to see what the actual car limit is. - I have not had this happen on the Oakville route, Peninsula corridor or Clinchfield. But I haven’t experienced a long train on any of those routes. And I don’t know if long trains actually exist on those routes. - You can use the external camera. As long as it faces forward it doesn’t look at the train cars. - I do not own Cane Creek to test this issue on another piece of content with heavy freight. Hopefully this is fixed in time for the new US route releases. In the interim, it would be great to know if there’s a maximum length of training we can use with external cameras. Just to avoid accidentally crashing 25 km into a climb.
I’m having this issue as well on PS5. Every train on Sand Patch that requires a loading screen when switching to the rear camera causes the loading screen to freeze. I havnt tried it on any other route yet though.
I am assuming it’s related to the memory leaks from the latest Unreal Engine updates. Hopefully it gets sorted when they release the next round of American freight routes. And yes. I’m having them on the PS5 as well.
Just as an update to this. I did the Northbound Florida Perishable run and had no issues with the external cameras on Clitchfield, including numerous flybys, and one of the entire train.
This is still broken as of 6/26/2024 Is it going to be fixed? I cant really play this route till it does. I just bought it over the weekend
Still crashing on PS5 when changing to an external camera that needs to load the view. Just happened during the Fully Fuelled scenario on Sand Patch Grade. There went 2 hours of play lost...
