Is a Ameecher screenshot.

Known Problemos: Currently, in OpenTTD 0.5.0 RC1 and 2, the plain ground buffer shows up as the Ausland/NSW one. This is fixed in the trunk, and it may get into 0.5.0 final.

As a tester, they are the best thing since... well, there have been so many good things, but lets say "since sliced bread".

Sometimes the simple things are what we really need. Now we just need an Aussie buffer to replace the Ausland version.

I agree, I tested these things, and they are darn awesome. And yes, aussie-style buffers will be needed next

That is absolutely no help to the GRF Author. If you expect to get help, you need to describe your problem in more detail.

If it helps, I've installed the buffers too along with the USSet, and the TTDpatch base graphics. I'm running patch version 2.5 beta 9. The buffers are active in the game but I can't figure out how to place them while I'm building the tracks. There is no obvious menu that's been added to place them nor any additional icons in either the railroad or electric railroad menus. They're not part of the depots or station selection either.

Thanks!

Christopher

If you have a graphics problem, assume that both ttdpatch.cfg and newgrf[w].cfg are required to debug, unless you know for a fact otherwise.

Screenshots of the New Graphics Status Window, and the places where you expected to see the new item(s)/menu(s)/&c. can also be helpful.

Do you have newstations switched on?

I believe the GUI for it is in ttdpbasew.grf

Can you access any other station types?

BobDendry · Post by **BobDendry** » 04 Jan 2007 03:53

The generic buffers are built at stations. Enough said.

Yes, newstations is on, so is ttdpbasew.grf I can access other station types, I was using the usstatsw set just fine. I play around with it some more tonight.

Thanks, Dave!

You probably have too many station grf:s active. Try turning some of them off.

what is the licence so Brianetta can use them on his server? He told me to do the dirty work as I wanted them.

Raichase · Post by **Raichase** » 04 Jan 2007 10:43

You guys realise it hasn't been added as a new catagory, it's avaliable as the station dropdown menu from the default stations. Ie, open the station window, and instead of picking a new catagory, choose a new platform type. You should have the TTD Default one, plus the two lots of buffers.

Excuse me but do you even need to ask?
This would be the same as if i asked before downloading "Can i use it in my game?"
Graphics are made to be used in games so go ahead and use it

Post by **peter1138** » 04 Jan 2007 14:40

Er, well, I know Oskar specifically prohibits use outside of TTD. And that means use with OpenTTD is not allowed...

Born Acorn · Post by **Born Acorn** » 04 Jan 2007 17:21

Some people see no difference though.

The Tram Depot should be released in a few hours, hopefully.

tough isn't this forbiding kinda useles?
It's like saying you can't open Microsoft office files in open office becouse Bill Gates doesn't want to let you...
It's not like were recoding gfx, editing it or something it's just using original file in it's original form for same thing just in another program

Brianetta needs permission to use them (which, I agree, is implied by the release), but he also requires permission to redistribute them, and that is not implied.
