Graphic question

Post by Mr Fox »

I download many that I'm kinda lost on all of them. I know how to use them so they are in the game, but some don't seem to be present.

CA Town Names v1.1 working fine.

4LVw Don't know what it is.


The ECS pack, don't know what it does. It seem some are industry. If the forest industry is in there, its hard to find it with the trees.
ECSTown

ECSBas2

ECSChem2

ECSMach

ECSWood

ECSAgri

ECSHouse

I also download this: GRVTSv1.4c

But I don't know where to put it in the game.

Now I'm looking for trucks and bus. I start in 1930 but I only have one bus. If I get early vehicle, I have the ford T. That is too old.

Thanks

Perhaps it's not a good idea to be using so many grfs without knowing what they do?

Get rid of GRVTS v1.4 and try eGRVTS v1.0 instead, that will give you a better selection of early vehicles.

Same place every other NewGRF goes. I recommend getting eGRVTS instead, it has the earlier vehicles you are looking for, including horse carts and steam trucks.

If you can't see the industry through the trees, turn the trees off. :-)

As for the graphics, if you don't like the original TTD graphics, then try the new OpenGFX graphics.

The ECS vectors replace all default industries (among other things). I think that there is no steel mill in the ECS set.

If they're no steel mills, why is there iron ore mine?

Also it seem that there is a order to place the ESG. In the game when you check option/ new grf settings, you can see what's active and if there a conflict.

because you can use iron ore on something else. click on an iron mine a hit display chain and you`ll see where you can use that.

Its working, but there was something that I did that was in conflict or that I did not put.

As it is, its working good, a lot of industry to seem to go in round. They produce a good, they send it and they received good from where they send.

I did have a problem with the trains. I use the Canadian trainset v1.0 but there was some wagons that the train would not take. I also have the trains from the ott mix. If I use the wagons from the Canadian trainset, with the original train, the wagons glow. I will put a screen shot.

Here it is. When I use the original trains, the wagons glow. Beside that, it seem to be working fine.

From the Canadian Trains Set User Guide:
Compatibility Issues
This set is not compatible with any other train vehicle sets. You should not have any other train vehicle sets activated while this set is in use.

That readme (and presumably the grf also) appears to predate the engine pool, so that may no longer be an issue in OTTD.

I was wondering if there was a place where all the GRF are stored so i can check what I have and what it is. Also I was wondering what you do with the streetcars? Can you make money with it? Also what is the MagLev in the railroading?

That's because the CanSet is f****** evil and was purposely coded to be incompatible with other trainsets. That is why I hate it and I never use it, which is a shame because it has awesomely drawn trains.
