Simutrans is back on MacOS!

Roboron did it again! After receiving some feedback from MacOS users (and developers), I solved the remaining problems that prevented the MacOS version of the game from running (on Steam or not). Now, MacOS players can play Simutrans... again! I want you to know that this was not a very easy thing to do, and unfortunately, it is also not a perfect solution. Since Simutrans' developers resources are limited, we can only target newer versions of MacOS. I let you with the details:

Details


  • Simutrans has been compiled and tested on MacOS Big Sur (11.0) - and this is the only version that will be supported, initially.
  • MacOS Catalina may be also compatible! If it is not, please let us now, we can also provide a Catalina compatible version without much effort, and we should support Catalina for now.
  • Other MacOS versions (Mojave and older) will not be supported. However, if someone on those versions wants to provide a compatible build for Steam players, please read the pinned post on the development forums.
  • MacOS Simutrans version is not currently a stable version. This means that you won't be able to play online with Steam users (but you will be able to... play!)
  • Initial tests show that Simutrans crashes if music is enabled (although it can be just my VM). Just in case, I have forced the "-nomidi" option for everyone, but you can enable music from in-game settings. We will solve this later.
That's all. Changes are now live. Since I have only tested the release on my development enviroment, I am not sure if everything will "just work" for everyone. I will be listening to your feedback here or on the Steam forums. With this we reached the #1 milestone of Steam Roadmap.Welcome back, MacOs users!

  • Available DLCs

  • Simutrans is an open-source transportation simulation game available for Windows, Mac, and Linux. Your goal is to establish a successful transport company and build the necessary infrastructure to transport passengers, mail and goods between cities, factories and tourist attractions by land, air and water.

    • Establish a successful transport company
    • Transport passengers, mail and goods by land, air and water
    • Interconnect cities, districts, public buildings, industries and tourist attractions
    • Control and watch your finances and the traffic of your vehicles and goods
    • Lots of graphics packages to choose from
    • Play with people from anywhere in the world in online games

    Multiple Choices

    • Graphics Packages (Paksets)
      In Simutrans you have multiple choices from the beginning to the end. Even before starting the game you have lots of graphics packages to choose from, every pakset giving you a different experience and play style.
    • Vehicles and Cargo
      The success of your company will depend on good planning, and we give you the tools for it. Simutrans can have buses, trucks, trains, trams, ships, airplanes, monorails, maglevs and any other vehicle that goes through air, land or water. Choose them wisely and transport the immense variety of cargo each pakset has to offer, from passengers and mail to raw materials and consumer products.

    Dynamic and Intelligent

    • Cargo has Destinations
      Simutrans citizens and products don't simply jump in your vehicles and go to wherever you send them. They actually have individual destinations: people want to check out attractions, go shopping, or visit friends. Products also have their destinations - factories have contracts with each other and they won't sell or buy from anyone else. If you don't give them the possibility to go where they want, they simply won't use your transport company.
    • Complete the Chain
      Transporting products not only gives you money, but makes the economy roll. As you transport products between factories, they start producing and selling. Every factory receiving the materials it needs starts producing new goods letting you connect more and more factories across the region.
    • Influencing Cities
      Your transportation affects city growth. Every unit of anything you transport will affect the nearby cities making them grow and prosper. Sometimes cities will create new attractions and places of interest, which attract a lot more passengers. Or maybe your service may attract new industries, that give you even more opportunities. But not everything you do leads to good things - as cities grow more cars are on the roads, and you will end up trying to deal with the traffic. What you do shapes the future.

    Control and Customize

    • Configure All or Nothing
      Simutrans has a lot of configurations that you can customize. If you're not a customization freak, don't worry, generally with a few options Simutrans will fit your play style. But if you are, you'll enjoy all the options and ways to change the game.
    • Build Your World
      When you create a new game, don't expect it to be a fixed world. You can shape the world to suit your needs, build roads, factories, houses, and buildings, raise and lower the terrain, create rivers, lakes, and seas, or beautify the world by planting trees.

    How You Play

    • Multiplayer
      Tired of playing alone? Simutrans lets you play multiplayer. You can join a public server and compete and collaborate with people all around the world. You can also play with your friends creating a private online or LAN server.
    • Hardcore or Casual?
      You can challenge yourself in a normal game, trying to make your company successful and rich. Or you can just relax and have some fun playing with no hurry or money, just for your enjoyment and the satisfaction of transporting everything.

    Cost

    This game will be Free on Steam.

    Languages

    Simutrans offers a range of languages, translated on a volunteer basis. Languages will be listed on the steam page when they reach at least 80% translation of Base Texts, and 65% translation of pak128.
