102.0 with pak128 won't open

July 05, 2009, 08:58:32 am

I've just downloaded Simutrans version 102.0 and copied my pak128 folder from my previous version (which is 99.17). However, an error message appears upon loading and won't let me open the game. I've got addons for pak128 and that's why I copied them, hoping to open my saved games.

Anyone could help?

If you use Simutrans 102.0 you also need pak128 for 102.0.
You can download pak128 here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/simutrans/files/pak128/pak128-1.4.5--102.0.zip

Back-up your old folder first. Then download and extract the new pak128. Then copy all the add-ons you were using from the old folder into the new pak128 folder.

or, if you are using a nightly, put your addons into your private simutrans folder (my files\simutrans or ~/simutrans) and create there a folder pak128 for your addons. The you can easily update your main installation without loosing your addons.
