Save game converter

Post by Killer 11 »

Is it possible to make ottd convert TTD patch saved game to a format that can be loaded by ottd.Becouse when ottd will catch up TTD patch and even have more features than TTD pach many people will want to play theyre ttd pach games on ottd.Even now some features are coded different than in ttd pach.

i myself have a great saved game in ttd pach and i'm looking forward to see it on ottd.

unfortunately as time goes on, both games will have a wildly different format. OpenTTD can load original TTDLX savegames, but those with patch specific stuff in them, can not. Next to that OpenTTD's savegame format is changing rapidly (mostly growing) to meet up with the features people request and implement.

I am sure a converter will be possible, but not until the savegame format has stabilized a bit.
