Looking forward to this route, just wish it went further to at least Plymouth, all the way down to Penzance would be even better as that's the usual route I travel, from Weston down to St Ives & being able to drive down to penzance would be awesome

It sounds like the dip you get when loading up scenery tiles as scenery is not loaded at a set distance from the train and when you hit a certain point all of a sudden the game loads a 1km by 1km (I think) tile and that splurge of asset loading causes it - and then at the next kilometre. Rinse and ...

Hi, I remember an issue when the ingame fps would dip for a few seconds down to 14 fps before returning to normal with earlier TS releases, I haven't come across many with ts2014 mentioning it though but it's certainly an issue for me and with it happening frequently one some routes it certainly rui...

If you can find a V4 device I'd say snap it up, for one it's cheaper than the new V5 and imo V5 offers very little over V4 which is why I've never bothered upgrading my TIR4 device.

Might just have sorted my problems as well, the bsod issues in game weren't down to 32/64 bit versions of the dll which I thought might have been the cause, in my case disabling the xram on my x-fi titanium sound card has cured the bsod issue, by digging around a bit on google it appears this is the...

Quite possibly as you have no openal soft listed so you don't appear to have it installed, when using the audio device selector switch, I have 3 options, x-fi, openal soft & generic audio.

Eventually I found one setup that worked perfectly. I renamed the openal32.dll in the Railworks folder so that it wouldn't be used and Windows would do it's own thing (presumably use the one in systemWOW as I have Win7 64). I then ran TS2013 with the -ShowSoundDeviceSelector switch used. This gives...

A little update, well that 1.15.1 release of OpenAL soft sorts the 3d positional sounds but it also causes SBHH errors, just tested some scenarios with the version of the dll that came with ts2013 and the crashes were gone, so either there's an issue with how the sim interacts with the latest versio...

Had an update to ts2013 tonight on steam, dunno if that sorted out the positional audio problems when using openal soft but I also installed the new 1.15.1 version of Openal soft dll prior to testing the sim after the steam update and I'm happy to report I now have fully working 3d positional sounds.

Still getting no 3d positional sound with this latest update so I tried swapping the openal32.dll with the one from my syswow64 folder and it's working good with alchemy again, before this update when using alchemy I'd keep getting random/frequent distorted sound, just ran through a scenario and had...

As for an update as advised, well let me just say, I'll believe it when I hear it

Steve.

I'm guessing this sound update for the middle of november isn't happening.

Now there is some news worth waiting for! Thanks for the update. I would have to say though that the overall behaviour of the sounds, particularly with regard to positional sounds, does seem much better now than it was several weeks ago. It would seem that something has changed already. Cheers. No ...

Just had a look at the website. Very interesting. I may have to puchase this as it seams that it will make flying a whole lot easier. If it could be adapted for use with TS2013 it would mean that the F4 HUD screen would not need to be activated. Antony. If your thinking of using that for your fligh...

Just a thought, but you can possibly still set the "software mixing" sound option by editing railworks\Content\PlayerProfiles.bin <SoftwareMixing d:type="sInt32">1</SoftwareMixing> Was worth a shot but no joy, still got the same problem of no 3d positional sound with the openal soft dll, I'll stick...

I'd like to see TrackIR implementation instead of the stupid X-Box controller stuff that nobody likes before this little one gets fixed, but then what the hey, I'm only after a simulation and TS2013 is a console game. Quite a few of us, me included, have been requesting TR support for a long time n...
