    Do you really think they are going to tell you commercially sensitive info like that?

    What about the blurred textures?
    I can tolerate the shuttering but to have blurred textures even in the cab car it is a bit too much.

    What about eye adaptation fix?
    NYT is still unplayable cause random beeping in players train cab - any fix?

    Hey folks. Any chance of an update on layering with the BR 204? Believe Matt said a few months ago that he was looking into some problems with it.

    Will there be differences between Schnellfahrstrecke Köln-Aachen timetable update on consoles and PC?

    Background is that there is already an update for PS4. It has the same amount on playable timetable services like the PC version. Difference is the amount of AI services and static stock.

    I think with Liam and the renewed GWR license we have a chance for a new GWR route with GWR Class 800. The same could be for historic GWR routes too.

    Will we need RSN and 363 loco add-on for the DB 363 layer on Frankfurt S-Bahn, or the owners of, for example, Riesa Dresden will have a reskin for it, or both of them will be suitable for the layer? I hope both of them will be suitable, because it would be exciting to shunt some ic couches. :)

    Does bringing TSW from UE4 to UE5 mean a completely new game is needed to be made or is it like jumping from TSW2 to TSW 3

    Would You Consider Expanding The ECML To Kings Cross Or Making A York To Peterborough Route Or Add Sir Nigel Gresley To Train Sim World 5 Or Maybe TSW6 As It Is The Last A4 Running And It’s Future Is Not Clear Yet And If You Get 60007 You Could Reskin It Into The Other A4’s Giving Players A Steam Locomotive That Has Been Highly Requested If Not Would You At Least Make A Headboard For Flying Scotsman Like The Crimson Jubilee IMG_9170.jpeg

    When are you going to hold third part developers to account and make them go back and fix bugs they've introduced as part of a "patch" which then breaks something that worked at launch when we first paid for it?

    ( hint, I'm talking about the running sounds on rivets Fife circle which If you care to look at the feedback thread have been reported multiple times),

    If there are no plans can you let me know why i should have confidence to buy any more dlc if it subsequently gets patched to a worse state it was released in and can no longer be refunded as defective?

    I'm a solo timetable developer; I'm currently constructing a new timetable for old route which has quite a few issues impacting my efforts (portals not connected etc) . would you ever consider a solo developer being able to update one of you earliest routes?

    I'm 100% you don't have any plans to update the route I’m working on as its such an early release, but with some modification work it could be updated, I’m looking my timetable in the 1990-91 intercity period.

    Regards,

    Mark

    Hello everyone,

    I've gone through and timestamped the May 2025 Roadmap, which highlights answers to many questions from this thread, as well as answers we were asked live during the evening that you can skim through. I've provided answers to some additional questions I can answer below.

    May 2025 Roadmap Livestream


    (Thank you to our team, chat moderators and some of you in the community who have provided answers to many!)

    Just a quick mention that anything regarding new content that we've not yet shared details about, we won't be able to answer directly. Many of the questions in this thread were directly answered on the Roadmap stream above, so please be sure to skim through the timestamps to see if you got an answer!

    Q: When is the Japanese route (The Tadami Line) releasing?
    Nothing to confirm at this stage, but development is continuing from the Union Workshop team, and we'll keep you updated when there's more to share!

    Q: Any plans to eliminate the red signal bug where trains are stalled, preventing you from completing a service?
    Teams are aware and looking at how we can address this issue. I will check in with our team to understand what the latest progress is.

    Q: Will TSW be optimised to allow quicker loading of mods?
    We're working to make the modding experience better, and Matt talked about the PC Mod Manager coming soon (ideally in the next month, but we'll aim to confirm once we have a date). This is just the start of the work our teams are looking into that will support the modding experience, so please keep letting us know your feedback!

    Q: What are Dovetail's future plans for Train Sim World?
    This is a big question, and one that opens up many different answers, many of which we can't share at this stage! It's worth considering that the team are constantly working to develop the best train simulation experience as possible in Train Sim World, and we're committed to constantly taking community feedback to help us on this journey. I'd recommend watching the livestream with myself and Matt as we talked about this in-depth on our Roadmap stream from 1:07:02

    Q: Plans to revisit older routes and add new freight services?
    Currently, unless we've previously announced otherwise, we don't have any larger scope plans to revisit previous content and add new services. We've recently had the release of the WSR remaster, and the Koln-Aachen timetable on Steam, and we've got the upcoming GWE Remaster, however, there are no other announced plans to work on this.

    Q: Any word on blurry textures? (Regarding Mildmay on consoles)
    Blurred textures fall under part of our wider performance improvements that we're developing, and are a key side-effect of some of the memory issues we've been tackling for the last few months. Right now, we don't have any major updates to share, but work continues, and our improvements for these are at the top priority. Matt talked about recently adding more developers to the team, working to fix this issue, and it may help us reach a solution faster. When we have more news, we'll share it with you all, and in the meantime, thank you for staying patient whilst we continue to help make the experience as good as it can be.

    Q: What are we doing with multiple variants of Train Sim World appearing on Store Pages?
    This is something our Retail team is aware of, and looking at solutions to help reduce confusion, and also help de-clutter store pages when searching for add-ons. We've not got anything to share at this stage, but we're exploring options to help make this clearer.
