Can't get the new graphics get working

[nero85]

I just dont seem to get the new graphics to work... I've loaded them with graphic manager, all in the proper directory, i don't exceed the total sprites, etc. But when i start the game, none of them works... Maybe it's because i can't add lines to ttdpatch.cfg, because if I do so, the game won't start anymore...

what lines you want to add ?

press Help button in Graphic Manager, htere you will have some extra information

[nero85]

I tried adding the lines that were in the readme of some graphics i downloaded, e.g. cdpath newtrains on

electrifiedrailway on

semaphores on

signalsontrafficside on

gradualloading on

newships on

But that just causes that the game wont start anymore

[SHADOW-XIII]

maybe those lines already exists ?

[nero85]

no. they don't. I searched the file but they weren't there

[SHADOW-XIII]

are you sure you have newest TTDPatch ?? (2.0)

And, are you sure that you have 'newrvs', 'newtrains' etc. on in your config file? If yes - post a copy of the config file. If unsure - post a copy of the config file anyways.

ah damn i've spotted the problem.... patch 1.8

though i have another problem right now: I get an error about TTDLOADW.DLL when i've installed the 2.0 patch, something about an invalid segmentlength

is this a known problem? I use Windows XP Pro, and 1.8 works fine

Just delete TTDLOADW.OVL
It's probably from version 1.9 aswell.
TTDpatch will generate a new one.
