Multiple newGRF engine sets - setting

Post by msportstars »

Hi there, I am very confused and hope that the experts here can help me!

I am wanting to run new GRF settings, but most if not all say I have to enable the "multiple newGRF engine sets" now I have googled this and there is supposed to be a setting in the settings menu under "vehicles" but it just doesnt exist like people have shown on this forum?

How am I supposed to get around this issue, any help would be much appreciated from a very confused OpenTDD fan!

This is now the default setting in OpenTTD, you no longer need to enable that feature.

What NewGRFs are giving you this error, and what version of OpenTTD are you using?

On a fresh install of OpenTTD and just downloading all of those NewsGRFs, I'm not generating an error.

Is this a new game you created yourself, or is this a save game or a scenario you downloaded?

Open the console, and type in it "set dynamic_engines on". The NewGRFs will no longer display an error message.

That's what I figured. Most scenarios were created before some of these big changes in OpenTTD, back when things were more wide-open and still experimental.
