Portsmouth Direct Line: upgraded for TS2012 from 26 April

[Darpor]

Unfortunately looks like performance has taken a hit... Very choppy in outside views, even at the lowest detail level and with TSX off...

Forgive me for being very surprised at that, but I am. Overall, more was actually taken out than put in and given the lights are not shadow casting, there should not have been an hit. I found that my performance was identical, but we all know how different it can be of course.

EDIT: Also, looks like 'Introduction to the Portsmouth Line' has disappeared (not in the Tutorials list), even tho it is listed in the manual? :/

Are you sure? Mine is running much smoother than before and before I couldn't run on the highest and had to turn things like texture quality down. I am getting a good steady 30fps in built up areas like Guildford, Woking, Portsmouth and Fratton! And that is with tons of AI movements too! I'd suggest sending an email to RSC Support - they've been quite quick at getting back lately!

Darren, can I ask if you're a beta tester for RSC?

Any of you chaps had issues with loading TS since this update? Portsmouth justgave me two blue screen crashes and reboots.

[pacerfan]

has the 4cig being updated too?

[Dave4468]

No, I've just run it flawlessy from Woking to Portsmouth Harbour. Slightly jerky around Fratton but there was lots of AI.

Just happy the 450 is fixed.

Performance seems fine for me and I've still got the Introduction scenario.

My introductory scenario has gone AWOL.

It's gone from the list of Tutorials, but you can find it now in the list of (standard) scenarios. So now, you can save and resume this one, instead of starting all over again.

I've not gone for the update yet as I'm in offline mode, is there any other hidden gems besides Portsmouth?
( don't want to trash anything before I do this weeks "steamapps" back up. )

So it has. Much more sensible place for it to be

I'm not sure if mine has updated, the atmosphere looks updated but the tracks have vanished with the 3rd rail still showing and many objects have dissapeared including tunnels, signal gantries, platforms and buildings. Has anyone else experienced this?


I've cleared the cache and checked steam but theres no info?


Many thanks
