Yes, the problem is, we need more human sacrifices.
Do you know of any maidens that want to participate?

are you sure you didn't make a mistake in the filename in newgrf.cfg file ?
what are you looking at? it's a signature!

Remember that DOS can only have 8 characters in a file name, so if it's longer it can't find it.

So...

if the file was "newgrf/jcindsta.grf"

the entry in newgrf.cfg "newgrf/jcindsta.grf" becomes "newgrf/jcinds~1.grf" ?

[edit] I only remember that DOS can do that (roughly)

[edit #2] Yeah, I forgot that.

uh first let me point out that jcindsta does not have more than 8 letters... it is a valid name, and i made sure of that.

i re-copied the file, and now it works. but then again, it doesn't, i get the f*** up purple colours and stuff. i guess the colours aren't converted properly, it happened before with other graphics. i'm sure it's dos-version i got though.

Without having tested the file on my own this sounds to like you have installed the wrong version. Are you sure you haven´t mixed them up?

Can someone just post the GRF file here? I can't get the RAR to work.

I can.

"jcindsta.grf"
it's this one on page 2 that i downloaded. i can't find any other dos-version, and i'm not even sure about this one, since it isn't noted anywhere.

The one on page 2 is incorrect. (It is a Windows version.)

I discovered one minor problem with the overlap-style of doing the buildings, and that is, that they look rather odd when you put them side-by-side on a slope. Oh well. Also, the "generic industry" stations don't look right next to a forest, but that'll be fixed once we have a proper log-loading station.
