TSW3 Tutorial To The Trains aka How to Choose Train, Route, Timetable, Scenario etc
Vložit
- čas přidán 2. 06. 2024
- In this tutorial we'll walk through the new process of selecting trains, routes, time tables, scenarios, guided journeys as well as Quick Play. I will also cover how to select the desired livery or train version.
Disclosure: I received TSW3 for free from Dovetail Games. - Hry
Thankyou so much for this video, was getting so confused with the menu, but you explained it fantastically 👍🏻👍🏻
Glad to help you thanks for the feedback
Thank you, I had no clue until your video.
You're welcome
Thanks for all the useful videos, I have a question on the new TSW3 menu - When you download a scenario from Creators Club is it meant to appear in the main window along with the standard DTG scenarios or do you select the game from inside Creators Club. If it's the latter than why is CC so unreliable still!!! and even when its working after downloading a scenario I don't always get the opportunity to play some scenarios, I'm not sure if it's me or DTG. Thanks
Hi Simon, thanks for the positive note on my content. The downloaded scenario will appear in two places, it appears under my subs in creators club. When you open it there it will have a play button. It will also appear under the list of scenarios if you open the scenario list after choosing a route. Note they'll only appear if you have all the required content installed. When you're looking on the online hub make sure the required content icon has a green tick on it. I think it's been fixed, but in the past if they needed a particular livery and you didn't have it they wouldn't appear.
@@trainsimulatordriver Thanks, this is as I though, I struggled to get scenarios on TSW2, I had to uninstall BR Class 52 DLC to stand a chance of seeing some scenarios, however; with TSW3 Im not getting any downloaded scenarios imported into the game menu.( I have all required DLCs) Ive raised a ticket with DTG but would like to know if other PC users are experiencing the same problem.
@@simoncox9551 I've only had the issue in the past when I didn't have a custom livery, I've not had such issues in TSW3. I'm happy to try a couple, give me a couple of scenario names and I'll see if I can get them.
@@trainsimulatordriver Hey Paul, so I just found a load of old TSW2 scenarios in CC Scenario planner must have been imported during setup, think a mixture from old TSW2 CC and ones I downloaded from TSC website. Embarrassed to say I've never made any of my own yet. However, I still can't seem to install a new TSW3 CC Scenario into any menu. If I create a new profile, I assume I can always switch back to my old one, I'm wondering if it's worth a try to see if it behaves any different.
@@simoncox9551 Yes they will have come over during import. Anything you're subscribed at the time of the upgrade will also appear. Subscriptions are tied to your Dovetail Live login not your in game profile so they should appear for any profile. Note should :). I would suggest logging a support call via dovetailgames.freshdesk.com/support/home so they can help you resolve the problem that is affecting you.
Is there a way to run to a timetable schedule as though you are working for the day?
I find myself having to go onto Free Roam after finishing a route to see what the next service is but the last time I did this, no route came up.
The service codes don’t appear to have a sequential element so I’m having to work out the time I spent on the last service and partly guess what the next job will be.
Hope this makes sense.
On many routes you can step off one service in free roam and get onto another one
@@trainsimulatordriver Thanks for the response. 👍🏼
I tend to do this and make a note of the next service if I’m switching off for the day.
Would be nice though if Dovetail gave the option of a ‘working day’ timetable.
Good tutorial. In terms of journeys: If you havr br class 31 and 20, Tees Valley Line will have 3 journeys: Default, br class 31 specific and br class 20 specific.
Yeah it is interesting what layers into a route with other locomotives or trains isn't it :)
@@trainsimulatordriver I think br Class 150 can substitute br Class 101, except when those are used a carriages hauled by br Class 31.
@@darthvater2087 yeah sometimes they can, but only on some routes - also happens the other way around, sometimes you get a 101 when expecting a 150
The game literally doesn’t work for me… all I can do is play training… Xbox Series S
You need to go into the store and select the other routes for download. They'll be there waiting for you.
@@trainsimulatordriver so the game is free on gamepass but you have to pay $20-40 for each route?? Wtf
@@DazeOfFraz on game pass you get standard edition which includes Kassel-Wurzburg, South Eastern High Speed and Cajon Pass and training centre. If they're not visible check if they're available to download.
@@trainsimulatordriver nah all of them isn't free this game was a rip off
@@tooru9288 that is correct, people do generally get paid for their products. If you had a route in TSW2 that same route is free in TSW3 after you buy TSW3 with one exception "New Journeys Expansion" and that is intended to be released later. Tell me if you go to the supermarket and buy and apple, do you expect them to also give you a banana and an orange for free?
Is this a game like flight simulator 2020 where you can drive trains through germany or usa for example? Or is it just a few routes for each country?
How much routes does the standard edition have?
Its not open world, its a selection of routes. standard edition comes with three one each from Germany, England and USA
@@trainsimulatordriver thanks for your answer.
@@LaVey1999 you're welcome
Looking at the various sections they are displaying 4of4 completed for the training. But the others have 0of0, no locos , or routes.. The game seems empty, also when I switch users it says wireless controller disconnected? It doesn't do that with other games. This is on an original PS4, would that cause this?
Do you have more than one PS console with your login?
Is the Scenario planner feature still available? How can I create a route on this game like we used to do on TSW2?
You've never been able to create routes in TSW, you might be thinking of TSC. You can create scenarios, go to Creators Club from the main menu then you'll find scenario planner and livery designer.
Sorry, I am very new to this, but do all of these trains come with the base game?
No the base game comes with a selection of routes and trains. There are various starter packs with various combinations. Look in the store for your platform to see what is available for you in your region.
I have my saved profile from TSW2 on Xbox One but some of my routes I have from it I can’t get in to, do you know what edition you need?
All TSW2 routes should work fine with TSW3 but you may need to manually download them see czcams.com/video/VuwhZmT6I5Y/video.html you don't need to pay for them again just find them in the store and download
So like the Metro North and the LIRR routes I have to manually download? I’m not sure how to do that
@@railfanningisthebest watch the video it shows you how
so basically they are being transferred to the other game?
@@railfanningisthebest as long as you stay on the same platform all your TSW2 content is available for TSW3. There are complications if any of it was bought on disc or if game pass was involved they you might need the help of support to resolve. Otherwise you should be able to download all of it by looking in your library and selecting it for download. You'll find detailed instructions for most things at dovetailgames.freshdesk.com/support/home and you can access dedicated help if you need it
If I purchase the standard edition, how many trains/locomotives can I play?
You get three routes, if I remember rightly currently it's South Eastern High Speed, Kassel Wurzburg and Cajon Pass. The routes usually change each year or so. CP has two freight locomotives, KW has one passenger and at least one freight and SEHS its actually hard to say what's installed by default because lots of things layer into it. Have a look at the steam page (doesn't matter if you're not on PC) as that will cover the contents properly for you.
Hi I'm wondering if you can help, im on xbox one and I've just bought the Birmingham pack but i can't seem to see it to play
This should help czcams.com/video/kXTNHcyXczg/video.html
How do I free roam and just get in a train to drive? Also, can I start a train journey from cold and dark at a depot?
There are two ways into free roam, either just choose it under the "to the trains" by choosing a route then free roam; or when you finish a service or scenario the end screen should have a return to free roam option so you can find another train
@@trainsimulatordriver thank you, appreciate the help.
Nice video and helpful
You're welcome
Hi can you please let me know how I can’t play anything after training on the free trial?
The core routes are DLC. They'll be downloading after the game or you'll need to download them manually depending on your platform and settings. dovetailgames.freshdesk.com/support/solutions
Just got the game an hour ago, done the tutorial, signed in, everything. But I can’t play on quick play, I get stuck on this at 1:38
Are you on Xbox? If you are check that the Xbox has downloaded the rest of the packages. Xbox is a little different to the other platforms as it treats the core routes as DLC to be downloaded separately.
L,OL I can't even get into quick play I'm on PS4 . I've got the deluxe version, I've downloaded cajon pass , and the other DLCs that came with a bundle on PS store.
Can't use them.
@@herecomethelizards2 I've not had that drama on PS4, when you are in the main menu and you go to the trains, then route, what do you see in that menu? There's help for all platforms at dovetailgames.freshdesk.com/support/solutions
I've bought a route On the game. But I only still have the training center what do I do now?
Xbox (or microsoft store on PC?) you need to download them czcams.com/video/VuwhZmT6I5Y/video.html
It won't let me select a route thing. I select timetable, I select train, then nothing. It only allows me to get to the train selection menu. Also, even though it says the free routes, when select view details, it takes me to the store and forces me to lay for them
This will help czcams.com/video/VuwhZmT6I5Y/video.html they're just not downloaded yet
Can i use a normal playstation controler or is a other made for this game better. I dont no any
On PlayStation only the PlayStation controller is supported supplemented by keyboard if you have one connected
@@trainsimulatordriver i have to buy a keyboard then.
Thank you
It wood be cool if there where a field to play in a deserd with a sandstorm
@@Creationshot you don't need a keyboard you can use just the controller, keyboard can make some things easier
At 2:17 where all the trains are and you choose a delivery I have no options come up to choose from and it’s really frustrating me. I don’t know what I’m doing wrong ?
Are you on Xbox?
@@trainsimulatordriver PS4. I can get to chose the trains timetables but the one train I’ve downloaded I click on it and no timetables appear or anything so it makes it unplayable. I can only play it in the tutorial.
@@gazzaduce3424 oh sounds like you've got a locomotive or train without its base route. Which locomotive or train is it?
@@trainsimulatordriver thanks for the reply and yeah you are exactly right. I downloaded the train LMS Jubilee Black and I can’t access it due to no routes. Do you know how I can fix this? Thanks again.
@@gazzaduce3424 do you mean from Creators Club or as in you paid for it?
It still doesn’t work for me I have 3 routes already downloaded and I try to play them but if won’t work I can only go to the training center
Sorry to hear it Charmeka, if you're sure they are downloaded then I recommend seeking help from DTG via dovetailgames.freshdesk.com/support/home give them all the info you can
I have a important question, when i want to register to Creator's Club, it text me "Unable to sign in right now". I tried it like 4x times, but its same. Do you or anybody know, what to do?
Answered on your other question
I’ve tried restarting the game and when I go to click play, and I clicked do something short or do something more it makes the sound of use selecting it, but it isn’t opening
That's a new one, I've not had that before. If you restart the computer what happens?
Well I’m on console so I restarted it and it still doesn’t work the only way I can drive it is training mode
@@SpcFranklin1062 have you downloaded the other DLC?
@@SpcFranklin1062 watch this czcams.com/video/Ee_QzgAgNow/video.html you need to download the DLC for the game
Also, when I click on an engine, no livery, pop up
I see other people are having problems with the simulator. I've completed the 4 training sessions, now I can't get any further. Quick play doesn't open , Routes , Trains, Tasks doesn't work . I'm on PS4 ?
Did you really need to ask the same question three times? Lol. I've answered on your other two.
im on ps4 pro and i dont know how to get a train and i do have a free route but it says view to buy and i select it and theres no play button so idk what to do please help me
What pack did you buy?
Did you had to buy the 101 before you typed it in?
You will need the DLC before it shows in the list yes
@@trainsimulatordriver ok thanks
I purchased tsw3 solely for cajon pass, it say it's downloaded, but I don't even have the option to play it
On some platforms even the core routes are a DLC and download separately. Check your store to see if there is a download option for Cajon Pass if there isn't drop a support ticket and they'll be able to help you give them the platform you're on "Support : Dovetail Support" dovetailgames.freshdesk.com/support/home
got it on steam but came with no routes or trains all i have access too is the training area that's it??
On steam? I've heard of that happening on XBox but never steam. Check to see if you have some DLC that are either still downloading or yet to download with the game stopped. If not, give DTG a yell at dovetailgames.freshdesk.com/ please let me know how you go.
how did you go @portyfive are they there now?
@@trainsimulatordriver yea all good now
@@Yacob_Rl great news
It whoed be cool if you get current real local weather instead of dynamic weather and if they make it in 360vr
VR would be cool but it's such a small market they've said it's very unlikely. You can set the weather to match your local weather before you run a service if you like
I did the training can'tdrive. A regular train wat I do? And I just downloaded it
Visit training centre. Each train has simple tutorials to get you going. They'll walk you through setup and driving. When you're ready to level up take a look at the tutorials on my channel here.
are there mods and add ons or is that what came with the game?
There's loads of official DLC and plenty of mods to you can find many of them at www.trainsimcommunity.com/
@@trainsimulatordriver thanks but could you download the mods on console or is it pc only?
@@ArenaBreakoutGamplay mods of that kind are PC only, there are in game livery mods that do work on console, look on Creators Club from inside the game
@@trainsimulatordriver thank you
Can anyone help me please, when I click on go to trains all it shows me is a Class 66 TTC, but when I go to store it shows I have the bakerloo line and the German line already owned, can anyone please tell me how I can drive the trains/ routes that say I already own them 👍
Never mind I figured it out
@@daniel17465 that is good news, sorry I didn't reply yesterday - doing a bit of construction. I'm guessing you're on xbox and needed to manually download the other DLC?
How do you get a 1972 Stock in TSW3?
It's a DLC. You buy it and it layers into the Bakerloo line.
@@trainsimulatordriver Thanks
Do you have to buy steam trains or are there ones u can unlock aka free.
All DLC have to be bought
@@trainsimulatordriver So steam engines are only in DLCs?
@@haydenlad934 there's the deluxe pack which includes Spirit of Steam - Liverpool Crewe. That DLC has the only steam engines in the game currently the 8F and the Jubilee.
It seems to not let me select the something short or something more routes, I click on them and absoutley nothing happens
the routes are DLC, you get a bundle when you buy the game, make sure they have downloaded when you start up the game
@trainsimulatordriver I had lool everywhere, even in my steam dlc section, theres nothing ready to download, you have to buy it which is shit.

It’s disappointing that you can’t place items like in Trainz simulator. I wanted to make a loop around sand patch grade to always be able to run around the tracks and never reach a dead end
You mean a world editor?
Yeah.. it would increase the success of the game imo
@@michaelrodriguez3327 they're starting to talk about a new scenario planner so it'll be interesting to see what comes
Why cant i select the red german trains like i can select the ICE trains but not the red ones someone help me
You should be able to pick any train that you own and it will run on its home route. You can use them on other routes in Off The Rails mode if you build your own scenario. Start from "To The Trains" then pick one of the red ones you want (assuming you own any) then choose the route you want to run on and the service and off you go.
Im loving the game
Great to hear!
Can i ask? Are the trains free?
Like any game you pay for it. The base game comes with a selection on DLC depending on which version you buy. After that everything new that comes out is an optional separate purchase.
After you buy the Cajon pass how do you install it
Did I answer this question on another video? If not, go to manage game and select the DLC to be downloaded and installed
how do you have all these trains.i dont have enough trains
I bought most DLC before I became an ambassador, now it's part of the deal
thx for that.
You're welcome
How do I down load the BNSF train up there
BNSF is on Cajon Pass route. If you have that you'll have those trains.
so i cant find a map it just says training centre even tho im finished training
czcams.com/video/VuwhZmT6I5Y/video.html will likely help, if they didn't download by themselves kick them off manually
I thought I could go anywhere around the world like fight sim but turns out I only have 4 locations
That's the base game. There's trains in six countries. Quite a lot of DLC
What do i press on the main menu to guard
There's no official guard mode in the game, but on several recent trains you can do it. You can either start on foot (to the trains, choose the route, timetable then on foot) and get on a train and do it, or start in a train and give it up then take over the doors. Midland will have it. The revised Island Line and Glasgow both have it.
i purchased a route and it didnt show up, why?
You're on Xbox I guess? Go into manage the game and find the DLC and tick it to download once it finishes it will appear in the game. Note you need to fully exit the game for it to show up.
Can I explore on foot like in tsw2???
Yes exactly the same
I cant do anything but training how do I fix this?
I'm guessing you're on Xbox? You need to download the other routes you've bought look in your downloads page
How to rush time has me 10 to 20 minutes waiting to move forward?
You can't fast forward time in this game unfortunately
Hello, i have problem, i want choise german red train, and he not have scenario, pls help

@@trainsimulatordriver ohhhhhh BRUHHHH tysm for the help u earned a sub :D btw uhhh what happens if i have over 2 hours of play time on it???
How to play passenger mode??
That's easy. Look at the time table, find a train that's going to the station you want and the time it will depart then choose "on foot" from the timetable menu and walk to the train and get in to ride. Most of them let you sit in the seats.
Does the routes and train cost real money?
Yes to buy then they're yours forever. If you buy TSW3 three routes come with it. There's always gamepass if you're in Xbox or PC but then you don't own it.
@@trainsimulatordriver and how much is it per route and is there like packs to get them cheaper then if u would buy them one by one?
@@CAZ125 it varies depending on where you live, take a look in the local store for your platform. Note the variability isn't a Dovetail thing the platforms do it. You can buy both routes and trains individually and yes often there are packs, especially on Steam on PC. Dovetail do a lot of sales on Steam too that are worth watching it for if you play on PC.
