PC Wcmls Enhancement Pack | Update 10 Now Available

Crash when loading the route - 'Could not find SuperStruct RVM_SEH_DB_Class66__C to create RVM_GBRf_Class66_Circle_C' - I don't have SEHS or the RHTT pack as it was listed as optional

 

Your issue right there, to use the GBRf 66 you need SEHS.

 

It should be optional but the timetable isn't finished. The GBRF shed should be a layer hidden if you don't own the dlc. Hopefully fixed next revision of the timetable.

 

Thank you, is there a solution to fix the crash?

 

Will definitely be taking you up on that, as has been said these have been released several weeks earlier than I intended. Got more planned!

 

I will have an update out tomorrow that will resolve it. Sorry for the trouble, just hang in there till then if that is alright.

 

No worries, thank you for your work

 

The GBRf's are gorgeous! I have now been able to officially purge all the Creator's Club 66 liveries out of my setup, and the dynamic numbering on this pack's 66's is the chef's kiss (the last 2 on the right at the same livery as a test of the dynamic numbering)!

Keep up the amazing work!

 

Just in case anyone else has had a similar problem and resolved it, I have a problem with the WCMLS class 350. Neither in timetable nor tutorial mode can I insert the master key. (the "keyhole" does not light up when moused over.) In the tutorial mode I am instructed to insert the master key (which I cannot) but am directed 9 metres down the carriage to do so whre there is no Keyhole.

Am on Pc and have The Jetwash et al WCMLS EP very latest mod only, V.8, and the very latest Fawx TT only. Have doubled checked that all the mod installations comply with instructions and verified the game files to no avail.

No one else seesm to have reported this so it is probably my problem.

 

Had the same problem, also on PC, but with v7 of the EP right after the update on Tuesday. Haven’t had the chance to test it with v8 or develop ideas to resolve it. Haven’t tried CTRL + W, which is the shortcut (which I only learned recently, that’s why I haven’t tried out).
It (the master key) worked under the new DTG timetable, so maybe an issue with this EP/TT?

 

I forgot to add that even with all the relevant mods disabled the problem remains the same. I can live without the 350. Will try ctrl + W. If no luck will re-install WCMLS.
Please report back if V8 solves your problem.

 

Easiest answer is to try the 350 without the 350 mod. If it still doesn't work it's an issue with the original DTG content.

 

Yes, thank you, that was the first thing I did, Bescot, but no luck. Must be a DTG thing from the last update.

Edit. Have re-installed WCMLS, no mods, still cannot activate the key.

Edit 2. All mods back in and , Oh Bliss!, Control + W acitivates the key. Mouse pointer still does not. Thanks to Jon Arbuckle for alerting me to this keystroke.

And thanks to all you amazing modders who make TSW worthwhile.

 

Hi,

thank you for your fantastic work.
Just a remark: I noticed some periodicals weird shadows in the tunnel near Kings Langley: it's my PC configuration or it's a problem with fitting the tunnel pieces ?

 

I am seeing the same shadows.

 

Please keep this thread for the mod and timetable, not for general bugs.

 

This specific issue has been on WCMLS since day one, has nothing to do with us.

 

4L68 has a long wait mid journey.

 

Yep, it's following the actual timetable. That's how long it waits in real life.
It's still WIP as I said, I'll probably split it into two in the future.

 

Godmode can accelerate time up to 4x IIRC, which means just enough time for a nice crêpe and a cup of tea before setting off again.

 

JetWash I know the instructions say "remove previous WCML stuff" but I just happily dragged and dropped the latest stuff and it worked fine.

I mention this because I'd like to make this an official feature request! i.e. that I can copy the latest file versions and it overwrites everything previously, or put another way there are no "older" files that should have been deleted that won't be overwritten. If that makes sense?

If this isn't technically possible, then a list of previous filenames that may or may not need deleting would be awesome instead...

 

Fawx Are there plans to add the HKA freight layer to your timetable ? The new DLC added a layer with some new freight services

 

Yes, obviously. You don’t need to ask me if you can do it. Open the zip and compare the files names, you’ll see they are the same.

The ‘remove all previous WCMLS mods’ was meant as an initial installation instruction. Just today we’ve had people complaining of problems and listing all their mods and lo and behold, 3 WCMLS mods that shouldn’t be there.

I don’t mean to be rude, but we are not here to hold everyone’s hand. This stuff is basic PC file usage knowledge.

 

JetWash in the last screenshot the way the walls are slightly lit up even if they are opposed of the sun and cast shadows. Is this due to to surface light scatter, basically light from the ground can bounce back to objects to a slight degree?
I know some unreal engine games use this feature and I was wondering if you enabled this in TSW as well.
I am fascinating by how well the shadows and light are represented in that screenshot and that is also my experience overall while using your mod on all the routes. You said before that you feel that now TSW feels next gen and close to photo realism and I must agree 100%.

 

That's a real wait time. Drive this service IRL.

 

tried playing the updated EP and this happened

Edit: okay i just realise that apparently RHTT was recently added as an requirement. And sadly its the one thing that I dont have. but surely it would affect much should it?

 

Please read the patch notes:
v1.1.2 Bugfix patch to properly add in layer requirements for the GBRf freight layers, will no longer crash if RHTT DLC is not owned.

So check always if you have the latest version before you complain

 

I wasn't complaining. But thank you. So if it isnt RHTT. What was wrong with the error I got?

 

It's the RHTT missing that's causing your crash. The GBRf uses RHTT as a base. If you remove the GBRf pak file, it should work fine, you just won't have the GBRf freight layers.

 

It’s taken an awful lot of tinkering and messing about but I think it’s now got to the point (gamma’s and skylight etc excepted) that from the lighting point of view those settings can pretty much apply to all routes.

As for the shadows, I think that is a combination of the various settings and the skylight alterations make the shadows look so much more realistic. I’ve also had some success I think adapting your streaming parameters into my main engine ini which is making the whole thing so much smoother. Happy for you to give it a try if you like, I’d appreciate the input!

Cheers

 

u that man!!!

thank you for this and thank you fawx for your hard work on the TT

 

Hello. If I can help I would be more than happy to give it a try! Just give me the ini settings and I will do some tests

 

Finally it's the weekend and I can get back to my PC and install this after playing on PS5 all week. It's really quite stunning. I've driven an 87 Freight service running south and a 390 from Euston to Milton Keynes. Both absolutely brilliant. The 87 service started by being slowly overtaken by a 390 in the dark with snow falling and the atmosphere it created was one of the best experiences in TSW. Thanks again to all involved,

 

(also replied this on the TSC server). Just did that and now it works. I do have a question is what

said is correct or not as i have now removed the GBRF PAK. Should've the timetable work even with the GBRF pak in but not RHTT?

(ignore this, was replied for this in TSC server)

 

JetWash can you reply about this point? Im not 100% Sure due to the fact i have the RHTT

 

You need to remove the GBRF pak file as you don’t have the pack that activates it.

 

Here is your'e answer!

 

and to JetWash.

Cheers!

 

is there anyhow the dwell time could be reduce after your train arrives at the destination? I had to wait like 20 minutes at euston and the timetable run still havent ended yet.

 

Lovin the new services. Especially the 87, this just keeps getting better! Tried dtg's updated timetable but its not even close! There's no going back from fawx's timetable.

 

It's basic knowledge sure, but it would require storing the names of previous versions somewhere when they're installed. That may not be beyond the wit of man, but neither is a systematic release process...

 

Can I ask what didn't work previously, which now does work on guard mode?

 

I know it's a stretch, but is there a possibility in the future of this expansion pack to have the LNR 730's as a sub-in for the Class 350's (since the Goblin line is mandatory requirement, the 710 is already present on the route)?

I'd love to to a full-length stopping run in one of these...

 

You already asked about this before and the answer is no.

 

Update 9 released today;

• Significant changes (probably in the region of 60-70%) to the environmental night lighting on the route using custom lights developed for the WCMLOS mod. As a result the lights look significantly better whilst improving performance at the same time
• In addition to the change in technique, many extra areas have had lighting sources added to them, something these different types of lights allow. It also allows the embellishment of existing lighting
• Wembley Central altered to fit the DTG update
• Some changes to Harrow & Wealdstone. Lighting on the custom models has been fixed to fit with the DTG update and remove the overly bright lights. Performance at this station improved
• Minor scenery alterations and some additions of foliage and clutter in a couple of areas
• Alterations to the Class 390 headlight mod that is included in the pack
• Class 710 lighting mod has also been re-done from scratch as it had stopped working. Now working as intended
• Inclusion of the Class 801 lighting mod which has also been done again from scratch and significantly improved. This affects the 805 as it is a child of the 801, hence its inclusion. Includes improvements to the headlights to stop them clipping the body of the train (you will no longer see the stark V shape cast by the headlights) as well as casting light further ahead of the train, changes to the cab light to make it much less bright, changes to the notepad light to make it less bright and more realistic, changes to the passenger saloon lighting to make it more realistic
• Fixed a couple of minor scenery issues caused by the DTG update
• Poppy removed from the 72 stock
• London Overground sign materials adjusted to make them more matte and less glossy looking

Unfortunately DTG’s update has broken the light baking at Euston again on the track at the station approach. Nothing can be done to fix this, it’s a DTG one sadly

 

Congrats for the update. I did a night run without any fog just to see the lights in pure form and everything looks absolutely amazing. This has become one of the best routes to drive at night. Fantastic work JetWash and team

 

JetWash, another great update to WCML south. Thank you so much and do hope that you will have a wonderful holiday.

 

Merry Christmas everyone,

I've been busy making a trainspotting video at Watford Junction.
I started recording at 8AM and every time a train passed by I moved to a different spot at or around the station.
When I was done at around 10AM, I had over 50 different view points, and after editing I ended up with a video just over 30 minutes long.

And, this was the first time using Davinci Resolve, what a difference that makes from Power Director!
Anyway, I hope you guys like it.

 

Evening everyone. Update 10 to the EP has just been uploaded to TSC with the following changes;

• Further improvements to the night lighting and additions of a few areas that had been overlooked. What's changed? It was noticed after the release of the last update that during very heavy rain or in thick fog some lights were creating an orb-like effect. That has now all but been eliminated by reducing the brightness of the lights and adjusting the position of the worst offenders, this also had the happy by-product of making the lighting look much better in general. A few more rogue spotlights have been nerfed and replaced with the new lighting type. The new crane at Watford Junction has been lit as per the rest of the route and some street lamps that were duplicated by the DTG update near Wembley Yard (causing performance drops) are now gone for good. General tidy up and improvements
• Addition of further clutter and foliage on the DC lines between Wealdstone Junction and Wembley Central
• Fixes and improvements to the custom station signage materials
• Maxwell the cat has been added to the route, being no more specific with his position than 'somewhere north of Leighton Buzzard'
