System Requirements?

DanMacK · Post by **DanMacK** » 07 Mar 2004 01:30

This may seem like a dumb question, but will OTTD work on any system the original TTD is compatible on? Also, does it cause any conflicts with an original version of TTD? As I'm running the DOS version under Win98, how would I go about running this? (Forgive my ignorance - It's been a long day and I'm tired...lol)

you NEED the windows smaple.cat and tg1r.grf files in the directory

Dangit - and where would I get those?

Otherwise, will it work on a 300MHzw/32B of RAM?

You'll need those files from your original TTDX game.

Actually, here's what you need, spelled correctly:

sample.cat
trg1r.grf
trgir.grf

Yes, one file has an "i" and the other a "1".

They're for music and graphics. Hopefully, somebody will create some"default" music and gfx for those who don't own TTDX? But for now, you must use TTDX's files.

As far as system requirements go, it's probably similar to TTDX - any Pentium with DirectX (or SDL).

And these have to be the Windows Versions of these files? i.e. I'd need to DL a Windows version to get Open TTD to run?

I don't know, probably yes. Hopefully in the future that will change, though.

Yeah, we need custom graphics for that. For the vehicles, I doubt that will be a problem, but then we need a new interface, landscape, etc...

I suggest we first make sure that it runs correctly, because there are still some bugs, such as wrong graphics at the bottom when playing in a higher resolution or wrong tree sprites on snow level. I addition, I'd find it nice if all the bugs of TTD (listed here) could be fixed before adding new features, just for reasons of order. Otherwise we'll end up in an awful mess, I think.

To come back to the topic: It works on my PII/380 Mhz notebook with 64 MB RAM without Problems.

I don't understand why you only need two grf-files, there are 3 grf-files with climate-specific sprites. Aren't we forgetting trgcr.grf?

You'll need all grf files to play all landscape types.

And it runs fine on a 233mhz 64mb RAM PC

It works great on my dad's pentium 180MHZ 48MB ram 4mb video card

DanMacK, you should download it when they actually implement something new, like higher tunnels.

Now, its just your average windows version of TTD

Celeron 2,4 GHz & 512 DDRAM works fine

. Even faster than normal TTD4Win

In my opinion first they should try add TTDPatch features/compatibility and then they should try add something more

Well, it works fine on my system - I downloaded it last night. As you say, it's pretty much a basic port of TTDWin. Still, it offers so many possibilities for expansion.

Still, it's remarkable what Ludde's done. Now...any way to prevent the game from starting in 2023...

download the latest version from this forum and it will start in 1950

Ps it's in New release topic
NOTE you will need to copy signalsw.grf into the exe folder too.
