Work in progress as of 2/7 and details of the most recent enhancements
Thank you for playing JR East Train Simulator!
We would like to report on the progress of our work as of February 7 and the most recent update.
Work on the Saikyo Line and Kawagoe Line DLC is progressing smoothly, and at the current pace, we expect to be able to release the DLC by the end of February.
In addition, the following features will be enhanced in conjunction with the release of the Saikyo Line and Kawagoe Line DLC.
・Expanded support for controllers (PlayStation, Xbox, etc., which are officially supported by Steam) and key bindings for controllers
・Language switching (Japanese/English) will be supported.
・Redesign of the route selection screen (renewal of the route map)
・Some guidance has been expanded for beginners (air section, ATS confirmation, caution for drift, long stopping time, stopping at the exact 0cm position).
・Loading display function ("Now Loading" animation)
In addition, in order to implement the in-train announcement function as soon as possible, we recorded in-train announcements by the three musketeers of JRE at ONGAKUKAN. We are considering introducing this function on a trial basis on the Oito Line.
The implementation time is expected to be after March. Enjoy!
