US Set / 1921 / Steam Locomotives

[mav1701]

I tried searching but nothing I found seems to address my problem exactly.

Recently decided to fire up TTDX again and try out the Patch -- and I discovered the US Set whch is wonderful

But I like to start early and use steam power for a good while, so I set the starting year to 1921.

When I start a random map, I have no trains in the vehicle build list. If I start in 1925+, I have a bunch of diesels and no steam.

Also, indirectly related, I have a lot of jumbo jets and the "future" planes buildable in 1921

I only have the 1 train set loaded, here is my newgrfw.cfg:

(none have params, the stuff after the // is added by me for this thread)

newgrf/ussetw.grf //0.57.3
newgrf/usstatsw.grf //0.86
newgrf/ttrs3w.grf // Total Town Replacement Set v3
newgrf/ustowns.grf // 0.85
newgrf/ussigzw.grf // 1.1
newgrf/indstatrw.grf // 0.6.3
newgrf/NARoadsw.grf // 0.8c

I am using ttdpatchw 2.6 alpha 0 r1902 and the latest ttdpbasew.grf file (I had an error until I found the correct base grf.)

Did this get moved? I coulda swore I posted it in the "Trouble... forum. Can someone move it if its wrong?

Okay, Ive done some troubeshooting, it appears to be an issue with the 2.6 Alphas and US Set compatibility.

I did a fresh install and used the old 2.5 beta 9 Patch version, then reinstalled all of the GRFs I listed above.. and the trains spawn correctly in the timeline -- And the future plains arent available in 1921 (no planes are, in fact)

The only issue: NA roads doesn't work with 2.5, it errors out (invlaid sprite in #1664)

So, anyone got US Set working in the 2.6 Alpha?

Try again in the latest nightly; there was a bug in newgrf parsing in yesterday's nightly.

I just tried r1905 and the problem persists.

Is there something special I need to when upgrading nightlies? I deleted the OVL file and the dll and overwrote ttdpatchw.exe and ran it -- no errors, warnings, but the vehicle lists are still loading wrong.

Please test the newest version...

sorry I didn't reply earlier.

Upgraded to r1907, it fixed the problem. Early steam trains now show in 1921, and the plane list is correctly blank and not full of jumbos and future planes
