zBase is a 32-bpp base graphics set. Only one base graphics set can be loaded at a time. zBase currently does not have all of the graphics, mostly missing in the GUI. Buildings, ground sprites, etc. are there.

To switch to OpenGFX, from the main menu click on "Game Settings" then change the base graphic set from zBase to OpenGFX.

That did the trick, the warning disappeared. I take it that OpenGFX r1016 ('LATEST') is identical to OpenGFX 0.4.7 (acquired via Bananas).

So the issue was with zBase being 'incomplete'. The zBase version used is r250 (from http://bundles.openttdcoop.org/zbuild/push/LATEST/). Does this mean trunk can't be played with zBase or is there an appropriate zBase version elsewhere?

It means indeed that zBase has not yet been updated with that sprite. Though you can still use it to play. You'll have one, two places where a sprite will be missing in the UI. Looking funky possibly, but nothing which breaks gameplay.

Hi.
i don´t know where to right. But i noticed a thing missing in the new realeas of OTTD 1.5.3.27462.
When mousing over a station ore a mine for example. It doesn´t show the amount of koal there are. And how much koal there are in the station for trucks to pick up.
U need to klick it now to see it.

The official version of OpenTTD does not include that feature. What you had before was probably a patched version that included the Station Tooltips patch, such as this and this.

The ottd 1.7.1 works faster on pentium 4 windows xp than core2duo ubuntu 64bit.
Why? Core2duo is much faster!

It's all about CPU clock speed. If you have 3.8GHz P4 and 2.66GHz Core2, Pentium 4 can run OpenTTD faster, even if it's not the case with other applications.

Because ottd is just using 1 core?

Hello,

May I'm wrong, but it looks like the "nightly" build found on the official web site isn't… a nightly.

Is was release on 6th april 2018, we are the 22nd june…


On GitHub I can see there were some code changes in the last few days, so… where is the real nightly ? With the lastest changes ?

So, echoing the post above...is there currently anywhere available to download the latest nightlies?

I can only assume the compile farm must not be back up and running yet (or it's not hooked up to the website or something), but it sure would be nice to try some of the recent changes :wink:

I believe it's being worked on; I don't know if TrueBrain has an update?

Are there still linux nightly builds?

also, the first post has a link error, the colon is missing after the HTTPS and before the // in the "You can get the nightly builds from here" section.

Actually there's indeed currently no nightly linux builds. Reasoning is roughly as follows: the general statically-linked linux binary is not guaranteed to work on all systems, and building only for ubuntu or debian does not warrant give enough downloads alone, thus are generated for releases only.

For any linux it's relatively easy to build it yourself, though. Install all required tools:

Code: Select all

apt-get build-dep openttd (debian / ubuntu)
or

Code: Select all

dnf builddep openttd (centos / fedora)
get the code from github and build it:
