ottd won't load Grf's on OSX

Post by TGVfan »

Hi all.

I have downloaded OTTD for MAC OSX and it works. But now I want to install some Grf files... and they work not.

What I did:

After installation and testing I downloaded the DOS grf. files like dbset and cargoset.grf.
I made a new map named Newgrf and placed them into this map.
Opened OTTD and I couldn't load the new GRF files. So I closed the program and opened the openttd.cfg file.
Here I typed (under in the box [newgrf]) dbset.grf and safed the file.
Opened ottd again but couldn't load the file either.
Then I went back to the openttd.cfg file, but found that my changes were gone. (so what I placed under newgrf was not there anymore).

Can someone please tell me how to get it working so I can really drom my Windows PC from the balcony. :wink:

Kind regards,
A happy Mac user.... well..... almost hapy

You need to place the 'map' (the correct word is directory or folder) under the game's data directory.
He's like, some kind of OpenTTD developer.
