Train Sim World 6: Best Way to Quickly Test Performance? (Workarounds)
Short answer
No confirmed fix yet. Players suggest: Then try out both German routes.
How to fix it
- Launch the game and test both German routes to check your system's performance.
- Keep the timetable as empty as possible during your tests, as a sparse timetable generally results in better performance.
- Move the game installation from your HDD to your NVME SSD if you want to test storage speeds, keeping in mind that the game requires a large amount of storage space.
If it still doesn't work
- Keep in mind that there is no confirmed fix for performance issues yet.
- Be aware that owning and activating more DLCs will negatively affect performance, primarily causing lags due to loading rolling stock across multiple different DLCs.
What players reported
I'm planning to pick up the Special Edition before the sale ends but from what I'm reading I'm not sure that my meeting (or exceeding, at least when it comes to RAM) of the stated recommended specs will be enough or that I'll be able to stand the seemingly guaranteed stuttering... so I'm wondering if there's a particular mode/route/whatever that's quick to access and is decent for benchmarking…

Ah, hadn't heard about that... or rather I didn't realize that when people were referencing the timetable it was directly related to the amount of activated DLC. I guess there's a positive side to not having the funds to go wild and get a ton of them, or that my biggest must-have route/etc. interests are regions that the game doesn't cover. I'll give the German routes a try for my testing…
My setup is an AMD Ryzen 5 3600, 32GB RAM, and a Vega 56 (8GB VRAM). I use Linux and play via GE-Proton (11-3 currently). I installed it onto one of my HDDs rather than my NVME SSD for the time being given how much space it eats up, so I'll just have to see how that works. Of the thousands of games I have on Steam/GOG/itch/etc. only three have actually benefited in any significant way from being…
