Also experiencing this, prior to update working fine. Force closing the game from PS5 home screen and then relaunching loads the game. DTG JD & DTG Matt could we get this looked into please. Also getting lots of crashes which is infuriating when I have to launch the game twice and wait for the long load times again. So far I've had crashes on Arosa by opening the map screen, and in the settings menu when applying settings (changed HUD from normal to simple)
Update: It seems uninstalling Arosa fixes the loading issue hanging at 25%, its now loading consistently (if still slowly) every time. Bad update for Arosa pushed out? Either way, crash reports submitted from PS5 Edit: scratch that, it hung at 25% loading bar again with Arosa uninstalled. Seems to be where the loading screen would transition to the Voralberg loco image
Thanks FredElliott - will check out tomorrow. If you have a list of Add-ons you have installed, that'd be helpful to know.
I seem to have been able to momentarily eliminate the problem only by uninstalling the RhB Anniversary Collection add-on, maybe that could be the source of the problem. Someone else check to see if this works for you.
Crikey, probably easier to list what I don't have installed ha But this is what's installed: Arosa Bakerloo BR313 BR 20 BR 31 BR 33 BR 52 BR Heavy Freight Cajon Oakville Cane Creek Cathcart Clinchfield CSX DASH8-40CW DB 101 DB 155 DB 182 DB 187 DB 204 DB 363 DB G6 Dispolok Tharandter Rampe East Coastway ECML Glossop GWE Diesel Legends Hamburg Lubeck Harlem Munchen Augsburg Rhein Ruhr Duisburg Bochum IOW22 IOW 1938 Stock LGV LIRR M3 SOS LIRR Luzerne Main Spessart Antelope MP15DC MP36PH-3C New Journeys SD40 NTP Peak Forest Peninsula Corridor Cornwall RHTT Rapid Transiit RHB Anni Boston Dresden Riesa Rhein Ruhr Osten BML Ruhr Sieg Nord CSX Heavy Haul (assume this is SPG, dunno why listed as that) Santa Fe F7 New Journeys BR423 Koln Aachen Sherman Hill New Journeys Silver 72 Stock SEHS TVL BR 700 Trenton Voralberg Somerset Kassel Holiday Express
Had another patch to game and GWE/Voralberg as mentioned by Alex in announcements, now can't launch the game at all, always getting stuck at 25% now
Just deleted Arosa, Voralberg and Luzern, game launched successfully twice in a row after that, now reinstalling and testing
Reinstalled Voralberg and Luzern, failed to load again. Deleted Luzern and game launched. This would suggest something in Arosa/RHB Anni/Luzern has busted the game
Can I check with those experiencing this issue: - what is the build version of your game, please? - and have you restarted the game after downloading yesterday's patch? (around 6pm GMT on 12th December)
Currently version 1.023.000 Game + console restarted several times To clarify, for me the game is working fine currently with all the add-ons mentioned above installed except for Arosa, RHB Anni pack and Luzern (these are currently not installed) When I reinstalled them for testing following removal, the game would not start, hanging on the loading screen as described
I have problems with some routes that I have installed but every time I restart the game they appear and disappear randomly. Could it be a bug in the add-on manager? The routes that usually disappear are CJP, SOS, KWG, DCZ, HAR. Sometimes also BRO and NID, but less frequently. Current version 1.023.000
Hey folks. Quick update - we pushed a patch today which we hope has improved things (details here: https://forums.dovetailgames.com/threads/update-december-18th-ps5.77260/). Can you let me know if this has helped, please? It's what we call a 'candidate fix', as we've not been able to reproduce it internally, so we hope it's improved things based on us identifying a possible cause of the issue.
Hey DTG JD I tried it yesterday after the update. I started the game 4 times, none of them crashed at the loading screen, but all of them still had missing routes, always between 8-9. There are never any minor add-ons like locomotives missing, only complete routes. Seems like a step in the right direction, but so far it doesn't solve the problem 100%. Tell the team that for this error to occur there must be a lot of routes and add-ons installed. I have found that with only a few routes installed (10-15) there are never any missing routes, I for example have 44 routes and 25 add-ons installed.
It's very sporadic. Everything loaded yesterday but 1st time loading today missed both Blackpool and main spessart bahn. 2nd time loading and I think everything was there. So vert much hit and miss
Just tested this, no longer hanging at 25% (though haven't reinstalled Arosa/Luzerne yet), but like the other posters not all routes that I have installed are listed in the menu when the game loads
Should point out that apart from Blackpool that occasionally goes missing it seems to be german routes which goes away. It's always mostly from the following routes. RSN, HRR, RHO, RT and to a lesser degree Tharandter Rampe (though that has stayed where it should since recent patch)
Hi all, As feedback suggest that loading issues on PS5 have been resolved by the last update, I'm unsticking this thread and marking it as resolved. For any missing content feedback, please reply to this thread: https://forums.dovetailgames.com/threads/tsw-4-missing-add-ons.77187/#post-771379
Just as an update on the missing content, we have an improvement on the way after Christmas. No ETA at the moment though.
