Maybe because your laptop is considerably better than my own one, which can barely run windows XP and compiles OTTD perfectly. Without a problem. Takes two hours, but it manages it perfectly.
And don't say it's too complicated to learn - all you need is some patience, the wiki, and then just read the wiki page until you understand it, and THEN try compiling it on there. Lazyness is not an excuse for making others work for you.

Im not on a laptop and this peice of s*** will overheat and burn out trying to compile something if it takes more then a hour. Im just asking nicely, common! Didnt your parents tell you sharing is good? Why is it so hard to just copy the binary you made, zip and then uplaod it? WHY IS IT SO HARD TO DO IT! Just please, common, upload a copy, its not hard.

And im not lazy, just I have a computer that faced death not too long ago and is almost crippled because of that. So please, just uplaod a copy of the patch binary, is it that so hard to ask for?

Well, you could at least have tried... I will do it - this once only. Now be patient while I do it.

Here.
based against r15233. I haven't tested it because I don't have the patience to. If it goes wrong, not my fault.
Next time you want a custom build, either at least try it on your computer, which is considerably better than my laptop but seems to have considerably more problems somehow, or pester someone else into doing it.

If your PC sucks so bad, why do you use it? And Gremnon is correct - patch creators shouldn't have to compile for you, as I'm sure they have other things to do.
Hmm, what should I put here...

Not everyone can afford to buy a new computer at the drop of a hat. :)

Then you broke it. Unbreak it. Or clean it, whichever.

No one sells computers that can't run at 100% CPU load for at least a couple hours straight, and most computers can run at full load for days on end.

Um, hi, I new to this and after looking though some stuff I kinda got an idea of how to do things, but theres a problem. I have a seriously underpowerd machine (CPU : 800MHz P3, 192MB RAM, 16MB Video Card) and I was wondering, can somebody please compile this patch for me, I tried but it would have taken for ever. BTW dont suggest I get a new pc, My parents wont let me have a new one and they wont let me use theirs no matter how much I beg.

Code: Select all

I do everything with out thinking...

Wahhhh!!!

Bite the bullet. Start the compile. Go to sleep, go to church, go to school, go to class, go to wherever you go for a few hours. Come back. The compile will be done.

And, as I recall.... again...
I recently DID compile a version with this patch a few posts back. Which appears to be all but invisible, apparantly.

If someone likes it (and I know several people who do), they may update it. Please stop spamming threads with "please update this patch". If you want this patch now, update it yourself, otherwise, wait (don't post) until anyway else updates it.
