And another one bites the dust. Disappointing discovery after taking a chance on this route after much milling it over and seeking reviews & recommendations. So, as per the same problem in Oakville Subdivision the Peninsular Corridor Introduction training module cannot be completed due to a camera switching recognition problem. Once again while doing the Introduction scenario and when requested to return to "first person" (or "Engineer View" in this case) the game does not recognize the switch and the scenario becomes unfinishable. Essentially locking you up incapable of doing anything but keep switching cameras. The only escape is to pause and exit to main menu. So both routes - OSD & PC - ported in and supposedly "TSW3 compatible" from previous beginnings have this same flaw in the same module/scenario - Introduction. How many other older routes have now have this?... would be my next question. Maybe the Preservation or Tech team(s) can look into this and fix it in the near future as it is obviously a flaw being created when carried over from the original platform. AFAIK this issue did not exist when I first did Oakville in TSW2020. I have since lost that profile's stats so I can't even check it. But I don't recall it being an issue prior to the route upgrade to TSW3 compatibility. Anyway, how about a look DTG guys? Give them a try... both routes = no go.
This bug has been present on several routes since TSW2, basically an issue with TSW routes that use the old control scheme. sometimes it flat out won't acknowledge the switch. Sometimes it will, but only after switching 30 or so times. Sometimes the intro completes anyway after the train gets past a trigger point on the tracks.
I play on pc so won't be able to help you. But For tsw3, many tutorials for tsw compatible routes don't work such as the ones you mentioned, lirr, ska and some others. It also affects tsw3 exclusive tutorials as well such as with the class 66 for the rhtt . I don't know exactly since I don't plan to replay tutorials but it affects most compatible routes
In my opinion, PC is really nice. The scenery's showing its age a bit, but the passenger services are alright, particularly with the baby bullet installed for some variety, although the cab cars' timetables are still broken in TSW3, so I stick to playing it in TSW2. The MP15DC is just *chefkiss* a lovely little addition to the timetables and really fun to drive.
I tried switching multiple times (at least to the 50 count) as you suggested, I tried letting the game run unattended hoping it would carry on and clear itself as you imply with a possible trigger point.... but the train will not continue after the next station without the camera switch. No luck at all. Nothing worked. I can't even get out of the seat and get off the train. It's just not completable. So far I have only done the faulty incompletable Route Introduction, the GP38 & MP15DC Introductions, and drove one scenario planner run with the MP15 and a string of ballast cars. I have also customized the MP15DC and the 5 car F40PH commuter train in LD which was fun. So basically I have enjoyed it so far except for the faulty Intro. Tomorrow I will try my hand at driving the F40 Cat and its weird braking system ;-)
