TTDPatch wont load in Vista...

Post by tvradict »

I had TTDeluxe and TTD Patch working fine in XP. I've been playing TT on and off for years. Love it.

Recently got a Vista laptop so decided to install TTD and TTDpatch.

Downloaded TTD from TT.net and the TTDPatch from the link on the TT.net page. Installed TTD and TTDPatch and then moved DPlayX.dll and renamed it Dplay.dll.

Went to my Desktop and tried to run the patch but it says

'Unable to access Transport Tycoon Deluxe CD! $'

What have I forgotten to do??

TIA
Stuart.

In your ttdpatch.cfg, make sure the Win2k switch is activated
(Assuming it's still called that, though a search in the TTDP manual/wiki would solve that one)
