Today two city maps created by NY911 were added to the Simutrans Maps website. One is the city of Berlin, the other is the city of New York. They both were used in interesting challenges for Simutrans players.

Today a huge (4000×1200) fantasy map created by AEO was added to the Simutrans Maps website. It is called the Mud Mountains. It is a challenging map which forces you to build routes though a steep mountain range. The intended water level is -10.

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). 
Use 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.
I finally managed to upload the p32c Set to the Translator. Now you can contribute texts/translations in your native language.
Thanks in advance,

This release is a mostly bugfix version… one new thing is the recoloring tool, which can be used to add easily player colours to your graphics. It’s recommended to upgrade.

A new version 0.5.4-alpha of the Simutrans Building Editor, TileCutter, is now available for testing. This is likely to be the last alpha release, before moving into beta status.
This new version provides a better controls layout and handling of save locations, caching of last save location. A couple of bugs related with wxGTK and dialog boxes have been fixed. Moreover, some translations have been updated.
More details can be found on the forum, here.
Since 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.
After releasing the new version of Tilecutter, the application’s texts are now avaliable for translation at Simutranslator, the online tool for translating texts of Simutrans in all languages.
English and Spanish are the first languages that have reached the 100% of Tilecutter texts translated. German is about 7% and Portuguesse is 5.5%. The rest of languages are at 0%.
They’re only 128 texts so come on and help us translating this great tool! you can make suggestions request an account at Simutranslator.
