That's interesting. I assume this is the New Beginnings map (Unfortunately, I don't know German, thanks google translate). While this isn't a map that has been designed in TM, I tried loading it and I can tell it is playable and fun even without farms or their TM replacement Agricultural Communities hence a lack of all food products on the map. Or did you edit it? Have you tried Persian Electric?

BTW, I like Euro Tunnel too. ;-)

Micele - If you play 1.05 or 1.06 maps in TM, you're not going to get the added extras and playability of TM. Maps designed in 1.05 or 1.06 won't play right in TM, if they play at all.

Here's a topic about multiple installs of RT3 so you can play maps in the version they're intended for.

Re: Hello greetings from Belgium Unread post

Playing like that only gives a fraction of the industrial options available in TM. This may be a good introduction, though, as the complexity of the entire industrial side can seem daunting at first. TM lost some of the strategy of picking (buying/building) industry based on return on investment (bang for buck), but this is more than made up for by the strategy involved supplying and even choosing the recipe to use in a specific industry. For example, should I supply the Explosives Plant with Aluminum and Chemicals or Pulpwood and Coal? Either way will make Explosives. I will make the choice depending on the resources available on the map and the goals of the scenario. In fact, there are so many different kinds of industries (must be around 10, each with at least 3 recipes) that produce the TM Food cargo that I am not confident to pick the best one in a given situation yet. Good luck playing TM! :salute:
