The World in pak64

November 17, 2008, 03:46:10 pm

I've used the "The World" map I've downloaded from a site and created a "worldwide" air transport industry consisting of different airlines plying routes between global cities which I also placed on the map

Here are some pics:

The first one is from the Frankfurt International

The second, a pic of Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport

The third, my own version of Hong Kong's Kai Tak (I use the timeline, anyways)

EDIT:

hmm..how can I place an image on my post? I can't seem to include the images under the headings.

Hmm..I'll see..I'll gonna find a free site wherein I can upload it..The file's pretty much heavy. (currently, my game is 12,960Kb and I'm already at the year 2001.

Great! Rapidshare.com or megaupload.com work fine for that purpose. Thanks a lot in advance, I'd surely enjoy watching all those planes fly around the world!

I'm currently uploading the file on megaupload..

On the other hand, here are some other pics..

The second picture below is the new Hong Kong International Airport, which eventually replaced Kai Tak in 1998. See on the lower right the runway of the old airport.

Thanks for the upload! Which version of Simutrans are you running? I can't get it started under the latest nightly. I also tried 99.17.1, but it doesn't work there either.

Since he has uploaded a savegame and not a screenshot there, I guess it's you who's "totally wrong!!"

Re: The World in pak64

Reply #12 – November 18, 2008, 12:54:12 pm

I could guess we are all "partially" wrong.

Then:

If you have a screenshot that is a masterpiece of landscape, please, host it at Simutrans Gallery.

If you have a screenshot that is just for reporting a bug or to ask for a help, please, host it at an image hosting or in http://files.simutrans-germany.com.

If you have a graphic to be used as template or pictures and files that are useful for creating Simutrans content (like add-ons), please, host it at Simutrans Graphic archive.

If you have a savegame that is just for reporting a bug, to ask for a help, or to show up, please, host it at an image hosting or in http://files.simutrans-germany.com.

It's just my recommendation.

@DirrrtyDirk ... you are right, as always

The word "screenshot" was a trigger for me... sorry KrazyJay, you are not wrong .. but no sorry to Mr. IgorTekton

Did anybody open here presented The World 2 savegame?
My 100.0 stable and 99.17 did not.

Re: The World in pak64

Reply #16 – November 18, 2008, 02:11:39 pm

I guess he uses some additional add ons.... $:-\$

Re: The World in pak64

Don't worry about it maister, but I'm still wondering which version of simutrans fuzion_051 used for this savegame...
And no, "the nightly"™®©, etc. SDL-version and 99.17.1 both don't work... would he still use the 88.10.5? Any clues?

Re: The World in pak64

Reply #18 – November 18, 2008, 04:27:35 pm

An older versions should usually be loadable in later versions - so it is much more likely that he uses some add-ons.

Im using simutrans version 100.0 (released Jun 28 2008)

Oh yeah..I forgot to say I have add-ons. And a whole lot of them. Sorry for that though.

Anyways, I'll just upload my "pak" folder which hopefully would enable you to open the file.

I downloaded your pak and my 100.0 got:

Calculating textures ...FATAL ERROR: dingliste_t::laden()
During loading: Unknown object type '-65'

$:-\$

Use the nightly. 100.0 has some fatal errors.

fuzion_051, Thanks for the upload of your pak! Now it works, finally I can lose myself in exploring this map! Looks nice by the way

Re: The World in pak64

Reply #24 – November 20, 2008, 10:46:23 am

There must be something wrong with my computer. I installed some nightly (I tested r2115 and r2126), then I installed fuzion_051's paks.
I can load any savegames I have, but loading of The World 2 savegame ends with:

FATAL ERROR: dingliste_t::laden()
During loading: Unknown object type '0'

Your welcome @ KrazyJay..just to note that you have to check the airports from time to time because some of them use up their parking slots and when that happens, the planes can't land. Just add additional terminal stops when that happens.

It seems that you can't open "the world" @Lodovico..that's pretty much bad. I can't figure out what could the problem is (well, that already happened to me, when I downloaded a savegame and could not open it, even if I also downloaded the pak folder).

Re: The World in pak64

Reply #26 – November 20, 2008, 02:06:42 pm

Yeah, airports got clogged up pretty nasty once in a while. I might remove all the loading percentages on each plane, see if it improves

, also, I added an airport near Taipei since I been there to many times to ignore it hehe

Re: The World in pak64

Reply #27 – November 20, 2008, 03:49:09 pm

Hmm..basically the loading percentages is what keeps the companies on the game not lose money. But anyways give it a try.

Actually, my reason for not adding an airport at Taipei is that I can't seem to figure out how to place the airport in that small island

Re: The World in pak64

Reply #28 – November 20, 2008, 04:57:35 pm

Yeah, I can imagine... I added a Print Screen to show you how... but yeah, it took a large part of the island! It doesn't quite fit perfectly fine, but the location is as accurate as possible.

Re: The World in pak64

Reply #29 – November 21, 2008, 11:38:51 am

Nice one

In any case I was expecting you had created the airport with two runways (isn't it they have two parallel ones?)

What's the airline in the pic? the one on the runway?

Re: The World in pak64

Reply #30 – November 21, 2008, 04:37:42 pm

Not sure which airline, there was just 1 blue airplane in the hangar when I checked. What you don't see is that there are 2 loading bays. I created airlines from both Japanese airports, the Hongkong airport and to the Philipines. Actually in real life there are also flights from the USA and Europe, but I didn't want to overload the airport, Hongkong has many connections already. And yeah, Taipei has 2 runways, but it simply wouldn't fit, just like 5 runways for Schiphol (Ams). Kaohsiung International Airport has just one runway though, but it's on the southern part of the island.

Reply #31 – November 22, 2008, 06:00:14 pm

Actually, EHAM(Schiphol, Ams) has six runways, one is located near the airliner strip.

Looks very impressive what you' ve done there!!

Thanks..

..btw to those who have downloaded the savegame, do you also encounter problems when you rotate the map? Whenever I tried to rotate it, the game always crashes.
