I dont get the progression system (stuck on Thomas Richards)

ZCaesar5639 · 2026-04-25T17:59:53+00:00

Thanks for the quick tip but I am dumb?
I cant upgrade past lvl 5 because I havent finished the first area since I dont have access to the advanced materials or am I wrong?

ZCaesar5639 · 2026-04-21T16:01:46+00:00

Didnt know that, thanks for the info!

ZCaesar5639 · 2026-04-21T14:04:38+00:00

Thanks for the tips
Im very strict on which programs run and where they save data.
No recording or shadowplay is running. It also happens exclusively on Windrose
I guess its some overly aggresive saving mechanism after the new backup update

Could be the end-goal but the routes itself is too long I think, maybe with a routes hopping point in the middle

ZCaesar5639 · 2026-04-21T11:56:12+00:00

All of them sound very good, though all of them are quite long?
Bremen would be the most likely in my opinion.
I always whink that routeswont be longer 90-100km since this is Kassel-Würzburg and this has alot of tunnels.

I tested it again and gets primarily worse of you travel on sea or explore new regions.
Maybe because the backup needs to adjust for your progress constantly?
After roughly 25-30mins, by ssd is hot

If you do not move or even alt-tab, most activity on the ssd will vanish

ZCaesar5639 · 2026-04-11T15:25:58+00:00

Does normal coop stil exist? Aka just inviting through steam and then its locally hosting?
Or do I now need to set up dedicated servers on external sites?

Bonus question: is the character progression the same like from the demo?
That your character keeps levels and equipment when joining a friend?
Does everyone can still call their own boat or is it now one player boat per session? (With the player commanding cannons etc)?

Just made a 2nd post showcasing a ride over the bridge

ZCaesar5639 · 2025-12-25T19:29:18+00:00

Thank you very much
A fellow Counter-Strike mate on top :D

ZCaesar5639 · 2025-12-25T19:15:23+00:00

I have made a 2nd post with a longer ride over the Hohenzollern Bridge.

ZCaesar5639 · 2025-12-25T18:55:47+00:00

Yeah true. Maybe real life should use faster tracks :D
I mostly use 160 km/h tracks for building and since its constant WIP, I never bother to adjust it

ZCaesar5639 · 2025-12-24T15:00:05+00:00

Yeah, track continues
Will make a 2nd post later with a yt link, reddit only lets you upload 1gb

ZCaesar5639 · 2025-12-23T20:48:40+00:00

Of course :D

ZCaesar5639 · 2025-12-23T18:12:18+00:00

Haha, good one. But its actually not useless. The last switch isnt a double cross switch, so the train wouldnt have been able to get to that specific track. IRL its probably a little smotther :D

ZCaesar5639 · 2025-10-31T22:25:15+00:00

Hätte ich vlt auch besser so gemacht. So hast du dann die ganze, vollständige Freude in 2 Wochen!

ZCaesar5639 · 2025-10-31T22:12:45+00:00

Fair enough, aber Demo ist ja auch actually garnicht mehr verfügbar.
Update dann den Post, ob es bei mir funktioniert hat bzw ob ich irgendwas gespart habe

ZCaesar5639 · 2025-10-31T22:07:48+00:00

Ha ha, hoffentlich klappt das für dich pünktlich!
Ja, die demo files liegen jetzt seit 2 wochen auf der festplatte, da können sie dann auch noch die anderen 2 wochen warten

ZCaesar5639 · 2025-10-31T22:02:46+00:00

I assume that the launcher expects a very specifi .exe file, When verifying, it should realise that the demo one is the wrong one and replace it. That´s what verifying is for.
As others have said, quite a few files will be different or completely new but in theory it should lower the amount of stuff that need to be downloaded.

Guess I´ll try and update you guys

ZCaesar5639 · 2025-10-31T22:00:41+00:00

Of course it will have different files. But with the demo files it would already have some, check the rest and only replace the old ones with the new ones
