PAK128.German updated to 2.1.470 Beta
[h2]The Team Pak128.German wishes all Simutrans players a quiet beautiful Merry Christmas.[/h2]
And again there is a surprise. :o
Again, the team puts the beta of the upcoming Version 2.1 beneath the Christmas tree. :(
But it is not the same as from last year. :P
We have now arrived at Version 2.1.beta (Rev.470) 8)
The beta also runs with Release 122.0, but because of the fords, level crossings and the scenario "Oktoberfest", a current nightly is recommended.
We would like to have made this version a release, but unfortunately the new program version takes a little more time.
We wish you a lot of fun during the Christmas holidays and in the quiet time after.
