Introduce yourself to the community January 26, 2009, 04:06:36 am Introduce yourself to the community!You can introduce yourself to the community here. I hope you have already read our Simutrans Forum Guidelines first. They can help you to better enjoy your stay in our community and facilitate our job here. Also, older members of community can say "hi" and give you a welcome.Now, let me present the forum:We are a friendly community. Here you can learn and participate in our projects and discussions too. This community has the goal of gathering developers and fans to discuss, develop and publish Simutrans. We have English language as main language, but we have some "parts" of our forum that are reserved for other languages.Our forum has 6 main sections (we admins call them "categories"). Each main section holds some few boards where discussions can take place. Each board is meant for a kind of discussion and activity, so that we can keep everything organized. If you are going to post a message or a new topic, or searching something, please use an appropriate board. Always use the Forum Search Tool before posting; chances are pretty good that what you are looking for has been posted before.Now, briefly about our main sections: :arrow: Information & AnnouncementsHere you can read important notes for community and know our guidelines, our sites and important services (like chat and blog). Also you can find Simutrans stable releases for download. :arrow: CommunityHere you can ask for help about how to play Simutrans and find manuals, tutorials, and online servers. Also, we have a Discussion space where we can discuss about Simutrans gameplay and a Social space where we share screenshots, stories and hold periodic contests. :arrow: DevelopmentHere you can post ideas to extend Simutrans engine, get involved with Simutrans development and coding, and help to translate Simutrans in your language. :arrow: PakSets and CustomizationHere you will find our works for development of graphic packs, also know as paksets. It's a very popular place because people are releasing new add-ons, downloading and discussing about paksets and new add-ons. Also, we have a space where you can find tools to help you to play and extend Simutrans. :arrow: Simutrans ExperimentalHere you can discuss and get involved with Simutrans Experimental Branch development and coding. :arrow: Language boardsIt's a part of forum dedicated to the languages other than English.

Re: Introduce yourself to the community Reply #11 – March 07, 2009, 01:08:03 pm Hi.I came from Poznan, Poland. I'm age of 26 this year. My adventure with Simutrans started from version 0.78 or 0.79. (When it was?) Even then it was the best transport sim. IMHO we can full trashcan with all these commercial games. I played:TTD - many many hours, but now is no chance for return ;]Locomotion - I think its quite good but later in the game you do nothing else but replacing old vehicles :/Transport Giant - looks good only on screenshotsI'm programmer and maybe one day I will have enough time to help make Simutrans perfect RegardsSarrus Quote Selected Last Edit: October 10, 2012, 05:45:48 am by IgorEliezer

Since 13, which was 2 years ago, I watched Simutrans grow from monorail to MIDI to now Rivers even.I'm quite surprised that the old forum was out, and all the past discussion gone.

Re: Introduce yourself to the community Reply #15 – April 26, 2009, 08:41:44 am Hi everyone,der_Karl from Germany here I've been lurking around quite some time (ever since simutrans 0.82.15.4, at least that's the oldest version I can find here ). It is amazing how much effort everyone here put into this project.I'm not sure how much time I'm actually going to spend writing here on the forum, but surely I'll at least continue reading.

Re: Introduce yourself to the community Reply #17 – May 03, 2009, 12:02:02 pm Hi everybody!I am Rainer from Germany. I am a little bit active in the German Forum. For some time I was lurking here, but it seems to be high time to get active here as well. ;-)What kept me from registering here ist the text to be accepted in the register form. WTH do I have to promise not to violate Federal US Law, which is more or less unkown to me and do not affect me? The rest of the text is going without saying. Can anyone of the admins be so kind to have a glance at that text? Do you really expect anyone from anywhere in the world to sign it?Anyway, let us have even more fun with SImutrans! I do praise wholeheartely anyone to helps developing it!RainerPS: I have to admit that lots of option in your backend are quite nice.
