Theme of the blog… is back

We managed to fix a small problem in one of posts that broke the layout of the blog; depending on the browser the blog becomes almost unreadable.

The problem solved: the theme of our blog and the blog itself are back at all steam.

Server move complete (forum.simutrans.com, others)

If you are unable to see the forum, you may have to wait for propagation (1-2 days). However, try the following:

1. restart browser

2. restart computer

3. If Windows, go to Start -> Run and type “ipconfig /flushdns” (no quotes) – it may fix

Many apologies for the stupid problems. I’ve posted a summary in Announcments on the forum.

Today a big new map (3040×1600) of Russia created by AEO was added to the Simutrans maps website. If you use this map be sure to set the water level to -2. The recommended number of rivers is 1024, the maximum length of rivers is also 1024.

Further, a map created by Sindor was added in two sizes (256×256 and 1025×1025). Sindor's mapUse water level -6 to get the intended map. As nobody seems to know if this map actually represents a real part of the world, it can be found in the fantasy maps section. Please make a comment if you know which interesting part of the world this might be.

Graphic archive registration disabled

haltSince the spammers registering at Graphic archive greatly outnumbered actual painters, user registration has been disabled. The primary function of the Archive is being easily accessible storage for templates and graphics, not a place for development and comments. So, disabling registration does not change much.

  • If you wish to use Graphic archive as an author, please contact me (VS) or Vilvoh, preferably on forum.
  • If you just want to browse and download files, no registration is needed – all content is visible to guests.

The Simutrans Forum just moved to a new server

potatoserverOur forum was moved to a new server. From now on, Isaac – one of our forum admins – will be hosting our forum on his servers.

The forum has been moved back to Isaac’s servers. This was done with only a couple of hours of downtime.

Technically, for now, you will notice that “simutrans.info” is the domain — all requests sent to forum.simutrans.com will be automatically forwarded to simutrans.info – this is what allows us to make the transfer seamless (with the exception of the necessary downtime to copy files and the database, but that was done at a time when activity on the forum was very minimal).

The remaining sites of  Simutrans are still on their original servers.
