patch – Train Fever Official Website (archived) Wed, 04 Feb 2015 13:43:58 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.7.2 My experience with build 5068 /forums/topic/my-experience-with-build-5068/ Fri, 30 Jan 2015 21:54:39 +0000 /forums/topic/my-experience-with-build-5068/ Continue reading ]]> Thanks to Urban Games for the latest patch. In this post I want to share my experience:

Performance:

I cannot judge whether the performance is increased significantly, as I had no lags on “low” texture quality with older build. However, with high texture quality, I have only 10 FPS, same as before. (NVidia GTX 660 OC)

Street Bug:

I still have the street bug! And I am waiting painfully for the community to again remove this “feature”.

Crash To Desktop:

For the first time ever ( after about 200 hours) Train Fever crashes to Desktop with build 5068. I got three CTD in less than 30 minutes of playtime with this build. Again, I never had CTD before, with this build, three in a row and this is of course unacceptable for playing the game :/

Other features:

Nice to have but with introduction of CTD and reintroduction of the “main street bug” I would gladly give all features “back” for a playable game 😉

Summary:

I hope the (new) bugs will be patched soon, and that the community is fast with providing a patch for the “main street issue”.

Cheers, Xanos

Update Build 5080: CTDs and main-street-bug are solved for me.

Update Build 5112: End-of-the-month lags are solved for me.

So far the game is quite good, but some improvements are needed! /forums/topic/so-far-the-game-is-quite-good-but-some-improvements-are-needed/ Fri, 05 Sep 2014 14:46:32 +0000 /forums/topic/so-far-the-game-is-quite-good-but-some-improvements-are-needed/ Continue reading ]]> I’ve played the game until 1928 and managed to make a lot of money at medium difficulty level.

The game is good and has a lot of potential.

This is my list of suggestions to improve and/or fix the game:

FIXES:

– Fix the lagging/stuttering problem (I have a medium/high PC and it lags too).

– Fix the clunkiness (and lagginess) of the interface. The shortcut keys cease to function or freeze at random. The same happens for mouse scrolling (it stutters and cease to function very often).

– The autosave function cannot be disabled and this contributes to the stuttering and lagging problem.

IMPROVEMENTS:

– A big improvement would be the possibility of laying track projects in segments before actually building them (as in A-Train and other trasport simulators).

– An easier way to lay short bridges and short tunnels (to intersect city roads) is needed too. At the present, only long bridges and tunnels are easy to build, but the short ones are really a pain to build.

– A MAP EDITOR (and possibly a scenario editor adding missions and linking scenarios in campaigns), and more customizations in creating random maps are definitely needed to increase dramatically the longevity of the game. Playing only random maps become boring soon.

– a MINIMAP is definitely needed too! At present I cannot see my entire network!

– There should be a way to upgrade rail stations, adding more tracks or lenght if there is enough space.

– Some statistics/info for the stops and the stations (passengers x hour, catchment area, etc.) would be useful.

– Long distance transport demand for passengers is a bit too low. At the moment, I see that only short distance lines make a profit. That’s a bit unrealistic. There should be a touristic/commercial demand for far away destinations.

Thank you and keep up the good work,

Antonello
