New releases of pak64.japan and Pak128.Britain-Ex

Good news for all pakset lovers, we have new releases of old well known paksets.

The Simutrans experimental development team has released a new version of the pak128.Brittain-Ex. The v0.7 seems to be a testing and evaluation version, but it should balance better with Simutrans-Experimental than the standard Pak128.Britain. The dev team has done a great deal of work on balancing this pakset since version 0.6, so it should work considerably better. As a side note, it doesn’t support all Simutrans-Experimental features yet.

You can download it here. More details at International Simutrans Forum.

pak64.japanOn the other hand, the pak64.japan is back after major overhaul. The content is under a mixture of licenses so it won’t be hosted at Sourceforge, but the binaries and the source are available here. Besides, the texts are available for translation at Simutranslator.

New playable release of Pak.Excentrique

Long time ago, Hajo, the creator of Simutrans, started a new pakset with the aim of making something special for Simutrans,specially for players who were bored of the common and mainstream graphic sets. The result is a pakset called Pak.Excentrique and we may define it as colorful, unsual and well…. excentrique!

Although the pakset is still under development, this might be the first playable version. It has depots, stations and two types of vehicles.

You can download the pakset at funkelwerk.de, and you can also follow the development at the International Simutrans Forum and funkelwerk.de forum.

new pakset on the way… pak96.hh

pak96hh screenshotThis is an old project from 2006, carried out by Frank. The original idea is to take pak64’s scale but using 96 pixel tiles. This gives the player more space for the surrounding environment of the objects.

You can download an early demo with non free objects for a better gaming experience, but you will also need simuttd pakset and a test game. Remember the pakset is still under development.

It’s a command line tool for Windows with several parameters that allow you to set the amount of anti-aliasing, special night colors and the image size among other things. You can convert vehicles too. The windows binary and the source code are available for downloading at resizeobj homepage.

P.S: For non-japanese speakers, I recommend to use an online translator as the whole website is in japanese.
