Updates

Since the launch on December 11th 2019, the developers continue to improve the game and add further functionality. These changes are released as updates. Every major update is announced at transportfever2.com as well as on Steam.

Release Notes

If you are interested in what the exact changes are that come along with the updates, have a look at the release notes. Please find the latest release notes on Steam: Release notes

Get the latest Update

The latest build is automatically downloaded by the Steam client or GOG Galaxy client. GOG users not using GOG Galaxy can download the latest build in the GOG games library.

To verify that you are using the latest build, compare the build number displayed in the bottom right corner of the main menu with the latest build number in the release notes on Steam.

Testing Version

If you want to try out new features and help us testing the stability of new versions, upcoming patches can be accessed in advance by using Steam branch “testing”.

To switch the branch, close the game and right click Transport Fever 2 in your Steam library and selected “Properties”. Under the “BETAS” tab you can select “testing” from the pulldown menu. This can be reverted anytime.

The “testing” version is equal or newer than the current release version on the main Steam branch.

Please note that the testing version might not be stable, so you should always save your game under a new name when using it. Games saved in a newer testing version may not be loadable in an older release.

It is possible that some mods get broken due to updates. Please be patient, in most cases it is possible to sort the issues out sooner or later.

Older Versions

If you have problems with current versions of the game and prefer to switch back to an older version, this is possible as well.

To switch to a previous version, close the game and right click Transport Fever in your Steam library and selected “Properties”. Under the “BETAS” tab you can enter the code “buildArchive” plus the number of the build you want to access, for example buildArchive27600. After that, select the build from the pulldown menu. This can be reverted anytime by switching back to testing or NONE (stable version).

You can find a complete list of the build numbers in the Release notes.

Please be aware, that using an older version is not officially supported and might result in corrupted save games and can cause issues with mods released at a newer date.
