![]() Pak128 is maintained by a number of Simutrans community members. Folders or files that contain these usually contain "src" somewhere in their name. Providing these consistently is beyond the scope of this project, but encouraged. Your goal is to establish a successful transport company. Still, in some cases, there are available initial or intermediate forms of material from which the graphics are rendered in some way. Simutrans is a freeware and open-source transportation simulator. True "openess", however, suggests that the whole process should be replicable, which is not always possible. ![]() This fulfills at least the letter of the law of "being open source". Their sources are the PNG and DAT files available here, without exception. Generally, user-level distribution form of material are compiled PAK files. Creating pak-files Pak-files are created with the help of the program MakeObject. The pak-files store data and graphics for visible objects. Given how the source/compilation paradigm breaks when translated from "programming" to general data manipulation, the approach taken for our graphics is purely pragmatical. Pak-files (naming convention: ) are a special file type that is used by Simutrans to store different kinds of objects as for instance user made graphics and content. Configuration, text and script files are in public domain, unless specified otherwise. For license details, please see the accompanying file "LICENSE.txt". ![]() The license implicitly assumed for all graphical material is "Artistic license 2.0", unless specified otherwise individually. Additionally, please provide some attribution, although this is not mandatory. ![]() When reusing the material from this set, observe the terms of used license. The materials available here are only these specific to this set general guides and references can be found at: If you wish to use the set only as a reference, you will be mostly interested in items in folder "base". If the directory contents are in any way significant or different, read accompanying "README.txt" files. Several modular 'pak-sets', containing graphical game content and game data are. The game world is seen in an isometric view. The game simulates transport of goods and passengers with multiple modes of transport (viz Rail, Road, Aeroplane, Ship). The game is open source under the artistic license 2.0. Some basic general information is available in "devdocs" directory. Simutrans is a transport simulation game. Result of compilation should be a directory "simutrans/pak128", and will be also zipped. To create a revision, it is assumed that git is installed. A make program is needed for the makefile, and Windows for the batch file. It includes everything to produce an usable package, except for the compiler program(s).Ĭurrently these build systems are available:Ī makeobj executable must be on path or next to script file. Simutrans has a large and growing number of paksets, many with specific themes such as ic or is source of pak128. Some paksets don't show a number in their names, but they always state the size when describing the pak. This size generally is shown at the start of the pakset name, for example, pak64 has tiles with 64px, while pak128 has tiles with 128px. Paksets also determine the size of the graphics used, this number is the height and width of one tile in pixels. It contains all the data for the graphics, the individual items (vehicles, roads, railways, buildings and others) and all of the balancing information (such as costs, speeds, capacities and so forth) necessary to make the game complete. They are called 'paksets' because all the files are compressed (from German 'Paket') to save space as a pak file. A 'pakset' is what we call the data set that Simutrans needs to run. Just use the COMPILEConvertedAddOns.sh or the COMPILETHEME.sh instead. The same progress has to be done to compile the addons or the theme as well. Simutrans is a modular game, the executable and the game data are separated.Ī 'pakset' is what we call the data set that Simutrans needs to run. Start Simutrans the way you did before, and you'll see a menu asking you for a pakset to run.
