    Just noticed this weird shadow loading where it draws between the tracks, stops resumes rather than continuously.

    Also found a tumbleweed on a post

    TSW2 does that too on XBox a lot.
     
  3. I noticed this on sehs, along with strange track draw and rendering. It was the same on gwe until the press crew reworked it an it was fixed.

    I tried altering the track draw distance but it killed the performance.

    It's weird that a legacy issue has cropped up again
     
  5. I was wondering if dtg maybe reduced the lod and rendering distances to boost performance maybe.

    Yeah I noticed SEH is quite bad for it, especially on curves - the shadows seem to disappear then redraw a moment later. Sometimes the LODs on the actual 3rd rail give up too and all I can see is the insulator pots. (PC) I guess we might have to wait for a pres crew fix.. oh wait.
     
  7. I did raise this with dtg a while ago. And recommended that maybe they could liase with the press crew and find out what they did to fix it.
     
  8. Is there a way to turn just the track shadows off? I'd rather not have them than what we currently have.
