OMSI Tutorials: Making a map Pt. 1

This is part 1 of 4(?) of map making for OMSI. I would've covered more, but this video was getting long and I didn't have much time. More will come hopefully this evening. If this is your first time seeing the video, view the full playlist and subscribe for more OMSI 2 Tutorials (In English!)

wow, this video is seven years old now but still very useful. Great tutorial.

[@amberlewis012]

Seriously these videos are just so damn amazing. Here in march 2021, and this still works most of the time!

[@metromaster2010]

This is very well done. Thank you.

[@MTA3306]

Thank you. :) I try my best. I plan one more.

[@NotLeafster34]

I’m nearly six years late but this tutorial still works thanks!

[@ItzAdamm]

Thanks Man :D Finally i can make make own map :)

[@Nathan-sc3pj]

It's a nice and clean tutorial. I do think the editor is anoying since all the models and splines of the streets and junctions are named according to the original Spandau map with street names and not like "2 lanes with lines and pavement" or something like that. It takes a long time to find the right street you want.

[@Ale041]

Nice tutorial!! Can yuo say me how do you "stick" the cross with the road at min 6:24 (like, do you press a "key" or do you only come near to the street)? Thank you in advance!

Hey. I was working on a map since April of last year. Few days ago an error displayed that my map was using the old version of OMSI and that I need to convert it (but I use the same game for 2 years, I haven't reinstalled or anything). I was able to convert it and then when I want to load it in the editor it displays error called: "Fehler bei Bereichsprüfung", and now I can't do anything. I was pretty close to finishing my map, it was a 10 month work. Do you have any idea how could I at least save my progress so I can continue working on it. Thanks in advance.

[@toshineon]

Thanks, I always had an idea for a map, but never knew how to create it. Gonna try to make Stockholm bus line 524, Upplands Väsby-Arninge. A bus I rode on many times as a kid.

[@Dutch3DMaster]

Same thing that made me start on a route in my city :). Though it is a long way from being finished.

Hi when I tried to make a new map it said that the template is compatible with a previous OMSI 2 version. How can I fix?

[@SWTransport]

How do you do Roundabouts? They’re so hard! Can you do a tutorial

[@prodtj1189]

Hi, when I try to connect to pavement splines together with the "Connect to" function, it doesnt work. Any idea how I can fix this?

[@iaspex1289]

How do you line up the roads properly? As I can only drag it manually into the right place. For example, you do this at 6:25 .

[@vrut3363]

THANKS!!!

[@bjslateshow484]

Tutorial is pretty nice. I've figured a lot of things, thank you! I've got several questions... 1. How can I put my own buses into map (I want mercedes citaro O530 Wien model and MAN Citybus series Red/Rot model) 2. Whenever and AI bus passes it only shows line number (it should be written as 13 DOWNTOWN - PT. SQUARE - EA. STATION, yet it only shows 13 and empty space)

[@MTA3306]

You can put your own buses into a map by editing the AI List. Change the file path of the bus used to the one you want to see (in your case, "Vehicles/MB_O530/MB_O530.bus), and the signs are empty because either you didn't enter the destination properly, or it does not exist in the HOF file that the map utilizes:

how to rotate the object on keyborard?

[@t.robbzzz]

When i add the new map to the maps folder and rename it, it doesn't come up in the omsi menu

[@Floydandsome]

Hey man Is it possible to export the map to some 3d software like maya then export it for other games like GTA5 I know it sounds silly and crazy

[@MTA3306]

It is not. Even if you did get it exported, it would be encrypted, and in a format GTA V or any other game wouldn't recognize.

[@Floydandsome]

Thats too bad : ( Omsi is a really good game but poor optimization but the developer could fix that would be much better

[@bruh-bd1tr]

I have a question can you add your own custom buildings into the map? If so how can you do that

[@MTA3306]

Yes, you can. You have to create the mesh in Blender (there are other programs, but this is the easiest) then you texture it. I made another video that explains most of this process

Sometimes they disappear upon attaching to a spline. After you attach, press G, and click somewhere along the spline. It should appear then.
