    DTG Matt, would this also be useful for anyone doing beta testing to get that basic build to test things since DTG wants the vanilla build for testing.

    I hope the TSW Mod manager for PC will be modified somehow to allow management of mods in the alternative 'UserContent' folder - or would it be possible to move existing mods to that folder (not sure what is the meaning of .ugc format)?

    I am very pleased to report that during my one run yesterday to test if AFB locks the throttle under LZB, this has been fixed... had a tiny little heart attack when I saw the traction lock icon pop up during AFB braking, but it went away and throttle resumed once the lower speed was reached... super awesome... on the other hand, LZB continued to supervise even without wire (a common occurence on some services on Frankfurt Fulda)... but this bug is fixed now, which means 411 is finally almost completely awesome

    I won't comment on bugs, but I immediately saw significantly increased performance on RTX 3060, even the first run on FTF after update (I assume that means regenerating shaders) was more fluent than FTF was ever before for me. Frankfurt Hbf area is still the same meh around 13 fps, but rest of the route runs much better.

    I am thinking of upgrading from 1080 to 3060, would you say it is worth it? cos atm 3060 is selling for a really cool price

    I wonder if the answer is to do what the World of Warcraft interface does with its Addon Manager? That brings up every file in the Addons folder, with a tickbox for each to turn off and on, and a 'reload UI' button to reload the game.

    This is really a low-end part of the gaming cards at the moment. It runs everything reasonably, but it's not a good investment in future. I would only get it if you are really on limited budget, or if you can get one refurbished with major discount. I will be looking to replace it within 1-2 years with something like 5070 that will be again good for next 7-ish years.

    razmatus#251 I am currently running a 4090 which is a year old now. Still giving me great results and, I feel, should for the next 3 - 4 years. A 4080 or 4090 would be a good upgrade now since the 50 series is out which should drop the 40 series prices.

    It's pretty well accepted that the best cards are xx70, xx80 and xx90.

    I'm currently running a 3080, which still does pretty well but unfortunately, I would have to replace my aging PC if I want to upgrade to a 40xx or 50xx.

    I am happy on a RTX3070 right now paired with an Intel Core i7-12700K. Initially, I wanted an RTX3060 because it had 12GB of VRAM but read in a few places that it's too slow to utilize the full 12GB of VRAM specifically when it comes to gaming.
