New Graphics doesnt work

Post by KWI2288 »

Hey,
I tried to install some new graphics, like new buidings and new vehicles.
But none of them seems to work right.
When i start a game it begin in 1950 but I have 3 locs from the original game. But the railroad crossover seems to work fine.
Can anyone explane to me how i can get the new vehicles and buildings to work. The buldings are *.exe, just like the euro patch but that doesnt work either.

This is my newgrf.cfg

newgrf/cargosetw.grf
newgrf/dbsetw.grf
newgrf/elrailsw.grf
newgrf/signalsw.grf
newgrf/tempsetw.grf
newgrf/bulkfrgw.grf
newgrf/carcarrw.grf
newgrf/arcticsetw.grf
newgrf/contshpw.grf
newgrf/gcvw.grf
newgrf/lngtankw.grf
newgrf/lstockcw.grf
newgrf/oiltankw.grf
newgrf/passlnw.grf
newgrf/pcgoodcw.grf
newgrf/reeferw.grf

Hmm I Have the newest patch, and I downloaded the files from the site you mensioned.

It said 'You need to upgrade to TTDPatch 2.0 beta to use these sets. You should also check Josef´s site for a complete set of downloadable files.'

And I downloaded all the files beneath, I've tried a few things but none of them seems to work.
And I read the manual over and over again but I don't know what I'm doing wrong...

I would like to have a game with all the trainssets and new buildings etc etc,
in other words all expansion, can you help me with that?

Thnx in advance

there are no buildings in this file .... (yet) ....
first you have OLD files .... all ships are not in separate files only at one, newships(w).grf ... so your browser probably stuck, try refresh page when you be there

and as manual is saying DO NOT USE DBSet and TempSet at the same moment

give:
CFG files with switches
CFG files with graphics entries
SaveGame just before crashing

and if you are using Graphic Manager provide a Log using 'Make Log' option

Sounds like autosave.
Defaults to one year. (V. annoying when TTD keeps crashing - set to 3 months every time :twisted: )
Look at the status bar when it freezes.
Not graphics related - move to other forum
