Switching Packs in Linux Version of SImutrans

August 20, 2009, 06:28:12 pm

This may sound like a newbie question.. but...

IM trying to figure out how to change the pak (from 64 to 128) in linux. I can't find the location of the game files.

IM running Ubuntu 9.04, btw. Is it even possible to do this?

THanks

Did you installed it using a package or the zip?

Mine is in /home/{username]/simutrans - if you didn't install as root that's probably where it will be.

You could always go into a prompt console and type "locate simutrans" and that will find all files with simutrans in the filename...

Anyway to get both paksets running, once you've found the simutrans folder, you should have a simutrans/pak/ or simutrans/pak64/ for pak64. To get 128, bung all the pak128 files in simutrans/pak128/ and then run simutrans with the command "simutrans -objects pak128/", or alternatively set the default pak folder in simutrans/config/simuconf.tab

Hope that helps...
