Cannot set start year.

Post by nosen »

the game is fixed-locked on 1950 , i don't know if it's aproblem with Alpha46. Or a feature in the dbsetxlw?
And, i cam't choose NOT to use lightsignals before 1975, it's semaphores automaticly, is this also afeaturein teh dbsetxlw?

Also, when trying to use dbset0.5 instead of dbsetxlw , it starts moaning about bad sprites etc nd goes back to orginal ttd trains.

What are your "startyear" and "semaphores" settings in ttdpatch.cfg?

As for the DBSet, try redownloading it - older versions may not work in the latest alphas.

Manual - Read it! vvv

I'm using the latest dbset from Bluncs(?) website.

Semaphores are fixed now, startyear is set to Off.
If i set startyeat to on, it autmaticly starts at 1930, i cannot use TTDC to set the startyear.

When semaphores were set to off and startyear to on, the dbset went inactive... yet again im stuck with ttd orginal trains.

Hmm another odd thing, when i choose to start the game via TTDXC it starts with the default start year I choosed, but no .grfs are in use except for TTDs own orginals.

When i choose to start the game manually via ttdpatchw.exe it starts at, 1930 with dbsetxlw and the others, loaded.

Well, that's what your cfg files say to do.
Add a ! after each grf in newgrfw.cfg to disable them by default, and turn startyear off in ttdpatch.cfg
I dunno what TTDXC thinks it's doing, but it ain't configuing TTDPatch.

Nope, TTDXC and ttdpatchw.cfg are acting like 2 totally diffrent games atm.

If you really have ttdpatchw.cfg, that's your problem. Get rid of the "w".
