Good morning...Playing Pak128 with US Hwy addon. How do I get the roads to show snow in the winter months, there is snow all around on the ground and on the same line how do I get snow on the buildings? That looks real cool in the screenshots that have been posted. Thank you

Someone needs to draw snow graphics for them.  I suspect they currently don't have snow images.  It will only display a snow image if one exists, otherwise the normal one is shown.

Does that mean that someone coded snowy roads & buildings just for the screen shot and it is not available for general game play as an addon?

The very same buildings that were on screenshots with snow, and wouldn't show snow for you? That would be strange.

If you are saying that some buildings don't have snow, well, that's how it is. They could be older than the feature - shows how Simutrans never stops improving :)

My projects... Tools for messing with Simutrans graphics. Graphic archive - templates and some other stuff for painters. Development logs for most recent information on what is going on. And of course pak128!

This is very true and one of the things I love about the game. I am playing PAK128vs102-2-1 with US HWY addon. I have a town built in the mountains with snow on the ground all around but not on roads or buildings. Where do I find the newer version of buildings & roads that have snow features?

If you need a newer addon I think there isn´t one. The most addons are drawn at one time and then never supported (it seem so).

I think the buildings in pak128 will get a snow image with the time.

You could ask VS whether you can help to draw snow images for pak128.

Which screenshot?  Maybe that would help us get to the bottom of it if we could see it too...

Sign of old age. Must get new glasses.    8)The screen shots and images I thought were cool looking are still cool looking but belong to PAK128 Britian. Thank you for your time

Heh. That also really confirms that pak128.Britain is younger and made already with the feature in mind. One of the reasons it looks so nice :)
