JGR's Patch Pack

[dol422]

Hello there,

Seem to have a problem downloading the game on a new Windows 10 laptop. Downloaded the 32-bit and 64-bit build on two separate occasions, and on both it says need graphics files which I cannot access.

I'm guessing it wants OpenGFX, this should be available to download ingame, unless you cannot actually launch that far. What is the error produced when you "cannot access" these files?
OpenGFX can be downloaded seperately here; https://www.openttd.org/downloads/openg ... atest.html

I can't speak English and write with Google Translator.

Questions :
While playing version 0.32.4, the game suddenly stopped with "no response".

The same symptom occurs on other computers, and if the GRF is a problem, I installed the version of GRF down but it hangs the same.

Soon, I hope you will be able to reliably repair the problem.

The game won't let me get that far. I have the latest stable release installed with all graphics files but this error message still shows up.

Try to download OpenGFX from https://www.openttd.org/downloads/openg ... atest.html - select the binary file, then place that file into the folder you extracted this patch pack to, in the 'baseset' folder, i don't think you need to unpack the files from the .zip file, just place the file there - try to launch OpenTTD now. You can then (optionally) download OpenSFX fron the ingame online menus for sounds.

Hello, I am repeatedly having trouble when I compile on ubuntu.

https://i.imgur.com/Amjl140.png

When I launch the game after this clearly incorrect compile, I have the version as nover000 - and so will not be able to connect to the eventual server it will be.
I have tried the latest, the previous 4 versions too with the same result. I'm downloading the zip. I am rather novice with linux and compiling. I have done this the same way with success a few times before.

Just a note to say I figured out this problem.

The problem, for people searching:

While compiling I saw

Code: Select all

checking revision... no detection
WARNING: there is no means to determine the version.
WARNING: please use a subversion, mercurial, or git checkout of OpenTTD
WARNING: you can only join game servers that have been compiled wihout version detection

Leading to a game that displays a version of "norev000".


What I was doing: I was unpacking the files from the zip into a folder I named myself.
What I should have been doing: unpacking into the default named folder (in my case, the folder needed to be called OpenTTD-patches-jgrpp-0.32.4
I compiled it while it was inside that folder and it all worked perfectly.

Looks like we snuck in a bug back when native Win32/Uniscribe text rendering support was added, forgot to allow that to work in the boostrap GUI. I'm making a bugfix for that.

additional suggestion

boyouts from company A should be "auto removed" if company A terminated .....

Hi. I have a question regarding programmable signals in the JGR patch pack.
I have activated the programmable signals button in the settings menu, but I'm at a loss regarding actually programming signals. The button doesn't seem to do anything. If it is activated, and I left-click a signal, it just changes its orientation (e.g. from one-way to two-way).
Routing restrictions work fine, btw. - if I activate the button and click a signal, a window for routing restrictions opens – but I gather programmable signals are something different.

Haven't updated JGR in a while, but with the latest I'm getting this error:

Screenshot (9).png (5.71 KiB) Viewed 4375 times

Is this known or maybe an issue with trunk? I have the latest OpenGFX 0.5.5.

It is a known issue with OpenGFX base graphics set.

Ok thanks!

Had a crash. The tanker train in on a "through load" at the station (order #4). As the rear of the train entered the platform, the game crashed. The bridge that the locos are on is a custom bridgehead. Coould this be the issue? If you follow the train until it gets back to Order #4, it should crash again. I'm using 0.32.3.
Thanks.

Thanks, this is fixed and will be in the next release.

Having a crash, not sure what's causing it. Could also be any of the random NewGRFs or scripts I've tossed in, but thought I'd run it past you first. Been really enjoying the patch pack, though, it's gotten me back into OTTD for the first time in years!

Hello,

I must say that I really enjoy this patch, specially the day length patch. I have a suggestion: could we have everything else scaled up, except for time?

Currently, when we set a really high daylength, so we have slower date passing, the industry production becomes too small based on the train transit times, so slow that 1 train can cover mostly everything.

If there was a setting so that the industries production would ramp up by the daylength factor and the profit would turn be divided by it would be great, so that the challange of multiple trains and a big network resurfaces.

have you tried the "ctrl+alt+c" function?... check the box for the production modification, click an industry and increase the values.

Hello Jonathan,

I can't compile the lastest source from github on Visual Studio 2019 on Windows 10 x64 :

Change: [Linkgraph] Only acquire thread join performance measurements on network clients

Network servers and single player clients do not block on thread joins

Sorry for this, it works !

Visual Studio 2019 C++ compiler and linker has been weird for several months now, mislinking or failing in weird ways. Doing a full rebuild always makes the problem go away, but you'll soon get linking misbehave again.
