so far your list looks like you did no obvious error.

Some questions:
-- directory structure should be something like

simutrans/sim.exe
simutrans/pak/
simutrans/lots of other files...

-- where did you obtain simutrans?

-- in which sense does simutrans stop working? error message? screenshot?

You have a recent pak-set, but the executable is too old. Please download version 111.0 and retry.
