MainHQ & NewStations for OpenTTD?

Post by verachtung »

hi

I want to include the MainHQ and NewStations from TTD Urban Renewal, but that are .exes who aren't able to patch in OpenTTD...

Are there alternatively .grf für OpenTTD? I looked for it, but can't find anything :? [/url]

You will get a warning that your grf files are corrupt since they got a "wrong" checksum. If I remember correctly you can ignore it, but I'm not sure. I never tried using modified grf files

I was able to use some of the .exes in OTTD, but it'd be great if it would be fully available for OTTD...

run the exe files in the same folder as tg1r.grf It should patch it with the graphics.

You're right, the program can use it without a problem. It is only a warning that is available in debug compilation.

but "tg1r.grf" doesn't exist in OpenTTD, so i can't patch it in there.

Look in data folder.
If you can run OpenTTD, it HAS to be there. Look for trg1r.grf
