Title: Fatal Error when starting from Steam
Post by: Sarrus on May 15, 2024, 08:05:28 AM

Hello.

I would like to try Simutrans through Steam as it is a convenient way of keeping up with development. I installed Simutrans try the standard and then I switched to beta "extended". The game freezes with a fatal error message:

FATAL ERROR: roadsign_reader_t::read_node() - version 0 not supported. File corrupt?
Aborting program execution ...

For help with this error or to file a bug report please see the Simutrans forum at
https://forum.simutrans.com

Maybe there is something need to be done when switching between versions?

Extended and Standard use different paksets. For Extended, you can only play pak128.Britain-ex (available by installing the pak128.Britain DLC). Other paksets won't work.

Yes of course it does. I forgot about it. Thank you!
