[OTTD] keoz's screenshots

Post by keoz »

Well here is my contribution to the general esthetical effort of the community :)

I have seen a lot of nice screenshots from a lot of people (was especially impressed by the ones of Badger or Ameecher, as well as others ...). So i stopped building huge unrealistics RORO stations and tried to enjoy a completely new kind of game. I'm also using CargoDist, which led me to search new ways to increase my network layout, in order to better balancing the traffic according to transportation demand.

Starting with Rorschach ... A hub between different lines, one to the nord-east, one to the east, one to the south-east. An airport has just been added to lower the passenger number going to the most distant and important cities, as Zürich or Bellinzona. An Airbus A300 is just leaving for Bulle. The city of Rorschach itself was divided in two parts, so i decided to put a local service between Frauenfeld, the Old city of Rorschach, with its cathedral (Rorschach Vieille Ville), and the new city (Rorschach Nouveau). A Metro-Cammell DMU provides the local services.

The next one, Liestal. A little city, but two important lines are passing (and crossing) here. With cargodist, that means that a lot of people is transfering right there. I'm not completely satisfied by the layout of the north-west entrance of the station. Have to rework it.

Liestal has also an important industry, on the west of the city. A coal mine, and a refinery are exploited here. The gravel is send to Arosa's Brickworks in the north.

Obviously, all comments are welcome, and also advices and ideas. Specially about signals, i'm not sure i always use them as good as possible.

These are all pretty screens. What a way to begin your screenshot topic :) I like the local line in the first picture, the one not connected to the rest. It's pretty :)

A coal mine north of Liestal. Under it, passes a freight/passenger line. Traffic is quite low for now, I will double it into a fast/low 4 track later.

And here the general layout of NewCFF, as it is in 1988, the game having been started in 1920. The blue-lines on the maps come from cargodist patch, and represent all the passenger connections.

And finally, for the interested, the GRF list. As you can see, i'm a great fan of PikkaBird's work ! Thanks to him, its aircraft are just amazing. I just dont understand the error given by the Bridge Renewal Set. Maybee somebody can give me some hint ?

It's not really an error, more of an information. It's telling you that Total Town Replacement Bridges are unnecessary when Total Bridge Renewal Set is activated.

Well, thank you. The weird thing, is that the bricks bridges desappear when I unload the Bridge GRF. Anyway.


The city of Rheinfelden

The Rheinfelden station was one of the first. It is situated on the Rorschach-Schlieren line.

North on the city, a Steel mill is serviced by several coal and iron ore freights. You may also notice the use of Mining Trucks (i really like HEQS) to bring coal from the mountains around the city.

Would you mind providing the (link to) binary that you are using for CargoDist? Could you also upload a sav?

If you look, the tunnel isn't actually under the main mine area - it's under the station :-)

Coal mines are pretty deep, too - so we can probably assume that there's a shaft under the mine, and the coal tunnels are a lot deeper than the train tunnels.

Yes, actually the tunnels are under the station, not directly under the coal mine. But have to admit that I didn't think about it :P Well, for the moment, the station didn't crash ! Hope the mining operations will not cause any problem ...

Actually, I'm not using binaries. I compile OTTD (under gentoo linux) using the git repository of fonso. The version used in this game :

Code: Select all

keikoz@kgentoo ~/jeux/openttd/openttd-cargodist $ ./findversion.sh
g04c1cf67-origin/cargodist      17967   0       g04c1cf67
And a sav, if you want to watch it:

Then could you provide a zip/rar file with the openttd.exe and such (the bin folder will do) so I can open the save? I will get an error if I use a nightly.

Hi,

I could provide you the executable binary i built (not exactly an ".exe", this extension is not used under *nix systems, or better said, the extension doesn't matter), but it won't work under Windows. Even if you try under some other linux distro, it will probably not work, since I compile it against libraries which are changing under each Linux distro. I could built a static binary for Windows, I suppose, but I absolutely don't know how to do it. If I find a simple way, I'll do it.

Oh yes, silly me. You could upload it, and I could test it against Ubuntu...

There is probably a compiled version in the CargoDist topic that is close enough to be able to load the savegame no?

I can't follow git's version numbers, so a date when you got it from git might be helpful (at least to me :P )

No, it can't work, since the libraries aren't exactly the same.

Try it by yourself, here is the binary. Don't forget to chmod 755 it and to launch it with "./openttd" (from the repository where you put it):

Well, the binary was compiled on the 7 november:

Code: Select all

keikoz@kgentoo ~/jeux/openttd/openttd-cargodist/bin $ ls -l openttd
-rwxr-xr-x 1 keikoz users 4947207 2009-11-07 18:59 openttd
That means I took it from the fonso's repository this day. Quite an old version (now) but I'm on this game since a lot (and have a social life 8) )

I see it's a large hassle, I will admire your screenies just like they are now.

Petert, all you need is a version of CargoDist not far after that (which hopefully doesn't have any savegame bump) and you'll be able to load the saved game.

Unfortunately, I've given up on using git, so I only use patched builds, which probably have the savegame bump.

Like I said, look through the CargoDist topic:

here is a nice build from the 7th November, http://www.tt-forums.net/viewtopic.php?p=830454#p830454

Both the linked build and keoz's build are when trunk was r17967. Chances are they will both load the save games. If not, there is a build from the 8th nov on the next page which might do the job as well...
