Doublepost becoz of different matter

Yes, I do know grf should not be changed in a game, but I did...

I have been using Opengfx trains 0.3.0 untill now, and yesterday I noticed some of the trains were getting strange sizes like the lengt was 5.4 etc. So with 12 wagon long train including the loc, I was actually fitting 12 wagons + the loc. And it all fit in a 6 tile station... Thats one wagon too much...

[EDIT: HERE I CHANGE GRF, AFTER THE TRAINS WERE ALREADY SHOWING WRONG SIZES FOR THE WAGONS]

Now when I loaded the 5065 build today, it warned me about it, a red errormessage with something about the trainlenghts being wrong. I'm azuming this means its already fixed in newest version, but tought I'd mention it...

In the pic I have removed one wagon of one of the trains (#257), and not from the other (#256). The longest one fit in a 6 tile station with version 0.3.0 but is now one wagon too long...

Hope I made sense there...

Other than that, I must say I like the trains in the latest build, the companycolors show up for real, and max zoom is awesome

Edit: closeup up 6,5 tiles long train on 6 tiles long stations...

Your current report is useless, as the change of the grf invalidates any warranty you may have.

Try to reproduce your problem in a new game (setup grfs, start new game, cheat yourself some money, and build 1 train to verify).
If that also fails, you can make a report and post about it.

Well, this all happened BEFORE I changed any grf... (warranty? I just want the people working on it to know about it)

Here are 2 pictures of one such train when using 0.3.0 and not changing the grf file

I did however, forget that I use a patchpack, so it might aswell be that doing it. Sorry, just forget it

EDIT: Nope, tested with 1.3.2, same grfs and happened there also. Got me a LEV 1 and added passengercars to it, and they donht count 0,5 pr. car.

Same happens with a new game with same grfs.

EDIT2: Started a game in 1.3.2 with ONLY the 0.3.0 ogfx trains newgrf and none else, and it happens there aswell...

Yes, OpenGFX+ Trains changes the wagons incompatibly from 0.3 to current nightly.

See here: https://dev.openttdcoop.org/issues/4131
Previously wagons had 7/8 length sometimes, now they are all 8/8.

So, intentional, but incompatible.

Aha, thanks for that frosch

Here are the Chinese (Traditional) and Chinese (Simplified) translations.

Thanks. I added the simplified Chinese translation. I've no means to judge what to do with the traditional Chinese translation as it was also already modified by means of the web translator.

Please register at DevZone (if you haven't) and apply as translator for the Chinese translations and use it to improve them

So on the wagon refit thread, is there a list available of the wagons, and what they can currently be refit to?

Yes. The NewGRF ships with a readme which also lists the rolling stock. The refit capability between rail / monorail and maglev for wagons of the same type should not differ.

I think I have found a problem when I played openTTD with FIRS and this set using "refit at station". I have a train with bulk-wagons and want to transport iron-ore and scrap metal. Station refit to scrap metal works fine but back to iron-ore just won't work. The readme tells me that this should be possible.

Try out the savegame:

Most of the rail locomotives are one pixel lower than they should be and it's annoying me. Sorry this message is so brief, but I don't know how to give a better description than that. Also the misalignment is only in 8bpp mode.

hi all.

i'm quite confused at the moment - this thread seems to say that opengfx+ trains have 2cc 8bpp as well as 2cc 32bpp sprites, but i can't for the life of me figure out how to activate either of these features. all i seem to get is the regular 1cc 8bpp sprites - i don't have the option to change the second company colour.

i'm quite sure i've installed it correctly as i did so via the ingame content service, and the wagon/cargo replacements work well.

what am i doing wrong?

best regards,
Susan

after downloading through the online content, you also have to activate it in the main menu, and stat a new game (can't add it to existing savegames)

although i have no experience with this particular GRF and its features

hi eddi. i assume by main menu you are referring to the newgrf settings dialog? if so, i did mention that the wagon replacement part of opengfx+ trains works perfectly - so i highly doubt i have forgotten to activate it. in addition, i have never edited the active newgrfs of an existing savegame.

my problem is that i cannot find any parameters to enable the 2cc feature.

In the development builds, how do I switch to 8bpp mode? Is it even there?
