Saving the game with the "compatible" NewGRF won't update it with the newer version?

if you set a hidden and known unsafe flag, ignored all the warnings, noticed something being wrong, and still overwrote your previously fine savegame, then you are beyond hope.

As we discussed it here in the Firs thread, there is a bug in the Path handling of tar files, thus it doesn't work. Tested it with Rev27408, and not fixed up to this rev. Created a Bug report here

Hello and thanks for a nice newgrf.

I just wanted to add that the swedish translation is made and done for this project.

It's been six months since the last nightly was released, and nearly three years since 0.4.2 was published. Can we go ahead and move r6200 to stable 0.4.3 and publish it to BaNaNaS?

Long time ago... But yes, we can establish the current state of development as new release version.

Thank you for your patience. And especially thank you to all the industrious translators!
Translation updates were contributed (in no particular order) by telanus, juanjo, siu238X, Voyager1, Alberth, alfergen, foobar, OliTTD, alluke, Czeczki, UseYourIllusion, kevin, Snail, Supercheese, ciekma, George, SilverSurferZzZ, Phreeze and Pekkape01. Your work is very much appreciated! (I hope I didn't forget any name here when going through translation commits)

Now available from Bananas is OpenGFX+ Airports 0.5.0:
Additional gameplay note: The water airport is more for fun and not meant for normal usage as no plane properties exist to distinguish it from a normal small airport of which it is just a version with different sprites. But there is at least one NewGRF with a water plane... so you can use it to mimic it when used with care. It must be build on ground nonetheless and cannot be built on water.

EDIT: oh, yes, I just notice NOW: the shipped changelog will quote the wrong year for the release

I am very happy to finally see this released to Bananas. Thank you!

Of course you can use the water tile in the Seaplane Airport GRF to make it look seamless

Could have used the EmptyGRF water tile for snowline compability. Who wouldn't put a lake airport on top of a snowy mountain lake?
(of course technically the ice would probably just be snow so just have it replaced with a snow groundtile would make sense as well ^^; )

My usual work-around is to build canals all-around adjacent to the envisioned airport. And then bulldoze the enclosed area in order to build the airport

@Pyrno: yes, maybe - there currently is no ground tile selection for this one. Sadly I cannot have it built on water directly (in that case I'd simply re-use the ground tile) - as such I have to choose a ground tile explicitly.

Pretty much an essential grf this one.

Worth using just for removing the airport date restrictions.

But the extra vintage/grass airports are also great - I use them for airports handling FIRS supplies at farms and such

Just curious ...
What happens if the over-water part of the airport sprites are done in transparent blue?

Not sure I understand the question..

The water is ground sprites. You need to use non-transparent ground sprites or you'll get graphics glitches of the worst kind as OpenTTD doesn't know what to draw and draws random content of graphics buffer. And as airports cannot be built on water, I cannot choose the ground sprite for the sea port from the tiletype either as I do for all other airports - here I need to force water manually

If you feel like using a small patch, there is the "Native seaplane airport". viewtopic.php?f=33&t=72959

I have used this patch it with NRT and worked. The patch forum thread also has an adapted Seaplane airport from OpenGFX+ Airports to work with the patch.

Curious, what happened to the Airport Maintenance Costs multiplier option in this GRF's settings? I was using that to nerf larger airports

It's still present as the 4th option for me. Version 0.5.0.

There is a GRF in the ingame online content menu simply called BaseCosts that can also offer control over this.

There's only 3 options after upgrading to 0.5.0

Def there in 0.5.0 , as said earlier Base cost mod does the same .

Hi guys! I maked a OpenGFX+ airports: ttdurban theme version! I changed all grafic but helicopter terminals... they still OGF! Someone know how to fix that?

P.S. Source files here. Use GRFcogec to compilate it back.
P.P.S. This not last version. I will make changes soon.
P.P.P.S. Look on new traces! I'm remaked all of them!
