Train Sim World 7 - Discussion

As I hate the need to download everything all over again every year - there's got to be an easier way - I decided to do a small install of a couple of routes and take a look. Not impressed with the UI and the menu colours are horrible.
I have a feeling I'll that I will likely stick with my original intention of staying with TSW6 for now and move over once there's something I want to buy.

 

That's basically where I'm at, or until there's a deeper discount on the deluxe content. Only thing really there that interests me is Tri-Rail, but it's not enough for a day one purchase, especially with the route ending short at Boca.

 

I'm completely missing my compatible version of Preston to Carlisle. I tried reinstalling the TSW6 version bit it's locked behind a paywall on the Microsoft store now...

 

First impressions playing TSW7 tonight and after the latest patch are good, based on playing the UK route. I have a quite a high spec machine ( rtx5080) so the epic settings are really great, with enhanced lighting as well. Live weather performing fine with smooth transitions now unlike before todays patch. AI conductor also seems to be behaving itself after the patch. The uk route is really well done I think. Still need to try the other routes but for me its looking pretty good so far!

 

Just done a run on East Coastway, you appear to need to have AI Conductor set to “Realistic” in order to get the guard to ring the bell to depart, but you only get one bell it seems oddly, it should be two bells, and two bells back from the driver. Needs a fix ideally

and, the guard on the 313 should be in the rear cab, not operating out of the front side door

 

Anyone noticed missing/mislocated train bogies?

I did see someone mention that using custom liveries causes an issue similar, but so far I’ve noticed the TFW 150 has collapsed & the bogies are inside the unit itself.

 

Had this issue on TSW 6 with the 150 on the xbox app version. It just seemed to fix itself after a game update.

 

I'm probably being thick but how do I change the default behaviour of the external camera? I thought there used to be an option (in Controls?) but I can't find it.

On the subject of settings, it's really annoying how some carry over and some don't when you import your profile. The layout of the settings is also unfathomable in places, especially when not all of them have descriptive text to help you.

Positives: the GUI does feel faster.

 

Why DLAA Is
sg.ResolutionQuality=87.000000
ScreenPercentage=87.000000
Is it supose to be like that? DLAA getting upscale from 100% screen resolution.
