My Problems with TTD Patch

[adamsund]

Hi,
I am a first time user of ttd patch, and i managed to install everything correctly. But when it came to the game, It didn't give me the option of bigger stations, when I put stations next to coal mines and any other producers, the cargo didn't go into the stations. I think there are probably a few more problems aswell. The cheats work fine.

Don't ask me whether the options are selected, because i even installed TTD Configurator to make sure. Can anyone help or does anyone suffer the same problems?

Cheers
Adam

You need to start the game by launching the "ttdpatchw19.exe" file, which will launch TTDX with all the new options & capabilities.

You have to place a normal station, and then place another station right next to it. For example, place a 5x4 station, and then a 5x3 station next to it, to get a 5x7 station.

when I put stations next to coal mines and any other producers, the cargo didn't go into the stations.

This is a feature - you have the selectgoods patch on. You must send a train to pick up the cargo, then the cargo will start going to that station. Alternatively, you may (as I do) prefer to play without this switch on.

Hope this helps!

Or you should try building stations by selecting the number of tracks and the length while pressing the CTRL.... its a messed up function cause I still dont get it.. but after a while of poking those buttons you will be able to place a 7x7 station....

I use the dos version so this makes no sense to me.

I can see why you're confused, it's ttdpatchw.exe
and for you it's ttdpatch.exe

windows and dos version names differ by the little s

anyway, have lots of fun (if it works)

The large stations are easy...

To get a length of 7 it's CTRL and 5
To get a length of 6 it's CTRL and 4

For number of tracks, it works the same way

To get 7 tracks it's CTRL and 4
To get 6 tracks it's CTRL and 3
To get 5 tracks it's CTRL and 2

Hope that helps

Hi , welcome,

You have the dos version of TTD, so you must use the dos patch !
