As it’s the perfect time for presents, here’s the release of pak128.Britain 1.06

pak.german new release
Dec 21
pak.german logo
There’s a new release of pak.german available for downloading. It includes small corrections related with prices and running costs balancing, in addition to several new objects like passenger ships . For more details, please check the changelog.
You can download the new version at Simutrans sourceforge site.
Recently we have discovered an awesome tool that was hidden at japanese.simutrans.com links section.
Its name is Resizeobj and it allows you to port almost every kind of object from pak128 scale to pak64 scale, with very good results. Take a look..
resizeobj test
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.
Nightly Builds
Dec 14
Since 4 days ago, the stable 102.2.1 is out.
So the http://nightly.simutrans-germany.com will be built from the trunk again.
Our 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.

No new features, but lots of missing bugs. AI are working again. For large maps some significant optimizations are in. Use the GDI version for large maps under MS Windows, which is compiled without additional DEBUG support and with all optimizations. (It is about 2-5 times faster than the MinGW versions.)
For a while, this version is not available for downloads from our site, but you can download it from our community forum (see link below). Later we will be updating our site.
EDIT: Simutrans.com site has been updated.
