PDA and new graphics?

Post by Jorick »

Hello everyone,

At first: I've searched every corner of the forum for some result, but I did'nt find anything. Even, if this question isn't respected at this forum, please let me know.

After playing TT(D)(Patch) for years on my computer, I saw OpenTTD for a PDA! I have the original TTD CD here, so copying the files wasn't a problem. But, the original graphics getting a bit bored after a long time playing. I was wondering if there is an option to get new graphics running on my PDA.

I've managed to get those things working on my PC years ago... :) So I hope it will work on my PDA also! (So I'm not that bored anymore when I'm traveling with the train to school... ;))

You can add new graphics to the OpenTTD for the PDA as you would using the pc version of Open.
Bye Bye OpenBVE :(

What PDA are you. using? I would like to
get one and being able to play TTD on it
would be the kicker.

As far as I know, the PDA versoin supports PalmOS and Windows Pocket PC.
As for where to get it, try googling "OpenTTD PocketPC"
purely OpenTTD

The Pocket PC fork is based on a rather old version of the trunk and because of that, it got poor newgrf support. The main issue is the screen size. The game is designed for 640x480 or larger (larger is recommended), so fairly new Pocket PCs with screensizes of 640x480 and 800x480 can actually run the game based on the trunk and gain the same support newgrf as any computer. I hope you got a fairly new one :wink:
