You could start by reading this.

I made Hungarien value to be my value

I made this on ttdpttxt.dat :

Bulgarian Leva (Lv) Polish Zloty (zl) ........

and this on ttdpttxt.txt :

curr_LEV="Bulgarian Leva (Lv)\00\00\00\00\00\00"
curr_PLN="Polish Zloty (zl)\00\00\00\00\00\00"

..........
But the Hungarien Value again is in the game ? Where is my mistake ?[/b]

Did you run the mpkttxt.exe file that came with your copy of TTDpatch?
This execute file writes your changes of ttdptxt.txt into ttdptxt.dat, the file that is used by the patch.

Better delete the old ttdptxt.dat (not ttdptxt.txt!!) first.

Yes I ran the mkpttxt.exe but It hasn't effect.

first of all you edited ttdptxt.txt wrong:
read, as Rob said, here: http://wiki.ttdpatch.net/tiki-index.php ... ncyEntries

then learn start from the beginning:
delete ttdpttxt.dat
rename ttdpttxt.txt (to backup it)
run mkpttxt.exe
edit ttdpttxt.txt
(DO NOT EDIT ttdpttxt.dat)
run mkpttxt.exe

Is this the same for language editing? Or am I way off here?

SHADOW-XIII · Post by **SHADOW-XIII** » 04 Aug 2004 21:15

yes, ttdpttxt.txt contain all texts that are displayed by TTDPatch, to get wide translations

fire87 · Post by **fire87** » 05 Aug 2004 08:56

Ah, cool

I've seen a language text in OpenTTD.. Wonder if it's allowed to use them just to see how it can be.. Oh, well. I should search around and ask then

rename ttdpttxt.txt (to backup it) - To rename it but will be the new name ?

Rob · Post by **Rob** » 05 Aug 2004 12:44

Rename it to ttdpttxt.old or ttdpttxt.bak or whatever you want.
Running mkpttxt.exe wil cretate a new ttdpttxt.dat file using the data you entered in ttdpttxt.txt.
If you do something horribly wrong you can get back the original ttdpttxt.txt file.

Sorry for bringing this one back, but I didn't want to start a new topic for it..

I tried to add Norwegian Krone (Nkr) in the game, but it wont get in to it.. I have read the wiki, and tried to do as it says there, but it still wouldn't get in the game

So I'm just wondering, what have I missed?

I deleted the ttdpttxt.dat, ran the mkpttxt.exe, edited the ttdpttxt.txt (Did of course do a backup first), and ran the mkpttxt.exe again.. Nothing happened

I managed to add fictional HUZ curreny
by following this: http://wiki.ttdpatch.net/tiki-index.php ... ncyEntries

copy the example at the bottom ... replace curr_HUF or other (because you have to replace something) and edit text on the right of the equality sign (=)

like:

Code: Select all

curr_HUF="Currency Name (SHORT))\00375620\00.\01\00SHORT \00 SHORT\002008\00"

(well SHORT is short best '2-3 letters' value sign and 'Currency Name' is the name which will eb displayed in options

I followed that one on the wiki and added:

curr_NOK="Norwegian Krone (Nkr)\001230\00.\00Nkr\000\00"

Well.. I guess there are some mistakes (or maybe A LOT), so I'm wondering what the line SHOULD be..

Do I need to have all the lines included really?

You have to change an existing entry, and you can't change its name. Since curr_NOK is unknown, it won't be included. Try changing one of the existing strings, like curr_SEK.

fire87 · Post by **fire87** » 23 Aug 2004 17:38

Well, tried that one too, without much luck..
Is there something I'm missing?

SHADOW-XIII · Post by **SHADOW-XIII** » 23 Aug 2004 17:54

I replace curr_HUF

Code: Select all

curr_HUF="Norwegian Krone (Nkr)\001230\00.\00Nkr\000\00"

(replaced!) and run mkpttxt.exe and I had that currency

fire87 · Post by **fire87** » 23 Aug 2004 18:06

Okey.. Should try one more time then

EDIT: Now it worked!

I guess the only thing I did wrong was to replace curr_HUF to curr_NOK

Thanks guys!

Well, maybe I wasn't clear, but don't change it into curr_NOK= but instead leave the curr_SEK= and put the NOK stuff after it, like

Code: Select all

curr_SEK="Norwegian Krone (Nkr)\001230\00.\00Nkr\000\00"
