DLC and packages

Simutrans - Pak192.ComicPak192.Comic is currently the highest resolution graphic set of Simutrans, with a special comic-like look. Inspired by both pak32.comic and pak96.comic this pak features a very familiar look with its cousins, especially pak96.comic which had some developers help pak192.comic too.dlc #434632FreeSimutrans - Pak128.GermanBrings the German transportation system embedded in typical German towns and industries according to the respective topographic region (coasts, the Alps, etc). Trains is taller than they are in standard pak128. Every building and factory has four views and each type of factory has different aspects.dlc #434633FreeSimutrans - Pak128.JapanThe Japanese community has always built many great objects for Simutrans. It was felt, that the scale of pak64 did not meet the desired level of detail. Thus pak128.Japan was designed. Trains are enhanced compared to the standard size and the graphic consistence makes this pak a work of art.dlc #435960FreeSimutrans - Pak128.BritainDeveloped to give a British theme to Simutrans, this pakset features a wide range of vehicles with emphasis on rail vehicles, highly detailed stations, more accurate looking track for junctions, and a more subdued graphical appearance than the brightly coloured pak128 from which it was originally derived.dlc #434631FreeSimutrans - Pak64.GermanPak64.German evolved from pak64, when original images were replaced by typical German versions. You will meet brick and wooden houses, German vehicles and trees, and brew beer too. This pak is the most challenging to play and has the most consistent and most homogeneous graphics.dlc #435963FreeSimutrans - Pak64Pak64 is the evolution of the original Simutrans pakset. Many artists have contributed to this pakset since the 8 bit age.dlc #434630FreeSimutrans - Workshop ToolsThis provides tools for creation and uploading Workshop content for Simutrans.dlc #435961Free
