[HOW TO] Creating maps with your own town names

[reijnemans]

Here I describe some steps to create your own town-names:

1. Open windows explorer (windows key + E)
2. browse to “{install directory}\Train Fever\res\config\name\{Language which your game is in}” (for default steam installation install directory is : “C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common”)
3. Make a copy of “towns. lua” as backup
4. Open the original “towns.lua” with notepad or another source editor
5. The first 2 and the last 2 lines in this file should be untouched. All other lines could be removed, adjusted or even new lines could be added. Make sure each of those lines keep the following format. every line looks as follow (as in the original file): {tab} “{town_name}”,
6. Save the file and restart train fever.

Same could be done with street names.

Don’t forget save it as UTF-8 for special characters.

True, but because you’re editing the original file, it will be automatically be saved as UTF-8 (at least when using notepad or notepad++)
