Patchman · Post by **Patchman** » 28 Jan 2003 02:01

Michael Blunck has released the first two of his new graphics sets, the arctic set and the new cargo set.

You can get them at the newly opened TTDPatch New Graphics site, as well as Michael Blunck's site. (currently down)

Be sure to check out his site to get more information about the enhanced goods concept and a glimpse of what else may be coming soon.

Just don't ask him when it'll be done

Good thing you told everyone - i saw em and downloaded em just before work and they are nice! but because i had to go to work i didn't have time to tell everyone

Agreed, I am soon to start a new game with all the new graphics, they are fantastic.

What are the presigs meant to look like, if not like they normally are?

Great!

Is it also possible to play with these graphics in a game you already started?

Is this correct , i see new trucks in the temperate climate

Question 2: the file presigw.zip contains the presigw.grf, but in the presig.txt i see it refers to presig.grf
this is wrong i think

Q3: these 3 new types , shound't their names end in w.grf to make the difference between dos/windows
newgrf/carcarr.grf
newgrf/pcgoodc.grf
newgrf/cargoset.grf

Q4: there is something wrong with the arctic trainsset, the waggons look bad, the trains are ok

(Gotta love block quoting, hehe.) Yes, I think the trucks share the same ID's... not a problem though, is it?

Yes it is, try using them without fixing this up

:D:D, they are all the same.

Mine are all good, i think as long as the .txt lines up with the .grf's names it is fine... I think.

The wagons look really odd inside the depot, but once they are out they are fine, I think it has something to do with the top opening for loading... again, I think.

I uploaded the wrong version of the cargo set, it was the DOS version again instead of the Windows version. This set includes the trucks with odd colours, they aren't part of the arctic set.

I've also fixed the presignals bug.

1) Download all files from NewGraphics section at http://www.ttdpatch.com
2) Put all GRF files in 'TTD\Newgrf' directory
3) Merge all TXT files to newgrf(w).txt IN your TTD directory ....

mp3Pro · Post by **mp3Pro** » 28 Jan 2003 16:19

I did that (3 times)
still no luck :-/

SHADOW-XIII · Post by **SHADOW-XIII** » 28 Jan 2003 16:25

So you still do something wrong .. I did it at first time ...

Patchman · Post by **Patchman** » 28 Jan 2003 16:30

mp3pro, did you start a new game? For existing games, you'll probably have to use "Cht: ReloadEngines". Also, most (all?) engines will only be arctic climate.

SHADOW-XIII · Post by **SHADOW-XIII** » 28 Jan 2003 16:52

and if you will still have problems better download whole TTD and TTDPatch again

Rob · Post by **Rob** » 28 Jan 2003 16:53

I have encountered something strange.
The new graphics are messed up a lot. When viewing the last wagon, also other textstrings are messed up. Look at the raodconstuction window.
Another fault is the trainnames.
Any suggestions?

I'am using the 1.9.1 alpha 15 patch,
windows 98 SE

Arathorn · Post by **Arathorn** » 28 Jan 2003 16:55

I think you need the latest patch to make it all working well.

SHADOW-XIII · Post by **SHADOW-XIII** » 28 Jan 2003 16:56

YOU HAVE TO HAVE ALPHA 19 !!!!!!!!!!!! AND USE MKPTTXT.EXE AGAIN

Rob · Post by **Rob** » 28 Jan 2003 17:02

You don't have to shout, I can here you perfectly. It isn't because yor sister is maybe a little deaf?

:mrgreen::mrgreen::mrgreen:

ps It works great now, I just didn't use the latest patch because Josef said you didn't need to for now........

SHADOW-XIII · Post by **SHADOW-XIII** » 28 Jan 2003 17:06
