PLEASE tell me if this is happening to others as well !

Post by ka959 »

For months, I've gotten onto TS2015, and maybe used it normally for a while, before heading to the Workshop, to get some scenarios to play. Just about EVERY TIME, when I wish to browse through the scenarios, they offten appear "sticky"and move with difficulty, only, and, after a while, I'm forced to dive up, and leave, because it's too difficult to go through these, and other times, they appear to move up or down my screen, by themselves, but I know it's only the mouse presses, being "sluggish", depending on whether you go up, or down the previous time you moved it in any way.

If you understand, please tell me about this, because if it's a common occurrance, I just wish to now it's NOT ONLY ME, so I know it's not, and try to get something done about it by Steam, if it's possible at all, because it's spoiling my pleasure, and that of God knows, who else ! Don't give up this as "too hard", and move on to the next message, please. Help in fixing this, if you are able to, and you might get thanked ! Thank you, for your troubles.

Regards...

It could be a resource issue Jim, if you've been playing the game and then use it as a surrogate browser to check the Workshop---it's been speculated before that the game doesn't always relinquish resources as it should when you've finished playing.
Do you have the same problem if you restart the game, and just go to the Workshop without playing first?
Can you browse the Workshop using your browser with no problems? (http://steamcommunity.com/app/24010/workshop/)

I know it's going to answer your question, but I never browse the workshop in-game but always in a "normal" web browser. Then I get a view that gives me a handful of scenarios per page and I subscribe the ones I think I will like.

Then in the game if I want to make sure that the new routes and scenarios from the workshop are being installed, I go to the "Profile" page, tab "Workshop", and wait for it to finish downloading (always an insanely long time).

Scrolling in that list is slow and horrible, and it sometimes jumps back to the top as it has completed building the list, but as you can anyways not start driving a scenario from that list, well I don't really bother with that anyway.

So perhaps that still kind of helps you to find another way to get stuff from the workshop? :-)

Cheers,

Hi !

Well, this is the first time I haven't tried accessing the Workshop, while NOT in the game. Never actuallydecided to do it THAT way - dunno why I haven't, either ! But I was more than surprised, as it wor :roll: ked well, with NO being "sticky" at all. Thanks for that. Why wasn't I told, to begin with, I wonder ? :roll:
