George's Long vehicles V4 beta4 is out (07 sep 2007)

[mrfilbert]

Is there a way, when I am replacing a large group of busses, to automatically refit them?

[FooBar]

If you are using OpenTTD, buy one bus and refit it, and then use the clone vehicle option to create the rest of them. And the AutoReplace feature will also automatically refit the new vehicles.

I don't know if TTDPatch has similar features, but I'm sure someone else can tell you about that.

[...] clone vehicle option [...] AutoReplace feature [...]

I don't know if TTDPatch has similar features,

Of course it has.

How foolish of me to doubt Patch's abilities

Yes, indeed.

"Autoreplace" is a quite established feature dating from october 2005 (2.0.1 alpha 63), but "clone train" can be found only in the 2.6 alphas (r817).

HTH

It depends on current landscape. Compare the list of vehicles in Temperate, Arctic and Tropic

Hello George and everyone,

I really love the LRV set and use it all the time, but one problem I need help with from anyone who can:

When LRV v4 is in use it makes the running costs for some other sets go quite high, a recent example is when I use LRV v4 with eGRVTS together the costs of running a 1 horse passenger wagon go from $74 to 600. And a 2 horse one to $1200. Ages ago I was using it with the UK train set (I think it was that one) and it changed prices there as well. I think the running costs for the LRV v4 set also change when this happens.

Just though I'd let you know and see if there is a way to fix it.

Bye

I can't fix it. It is a question for OTTD (Global cost vars should affect RV set only and not affect other sets).

Ah thats a shame. Thanks for the reply. Hopefully something gets done about it one day.

Great! I'm sure it was worth the wait do you have any screenshots by any chance?

Hi...I'm not going to write with all caps letters...
I just have a problem...
I went on the Server list in the main menu of OPEN TTD...there are some servers with New GRF that I haven't got, so I searched on the Internet...
It's the NewGRF "Long vehicles v4"...I found it but it doesn't work...
I noticed the date of that GRF on the server list was 7 september 2007; on the Internet was different...please, help me!!!

[SHADOW-XIII]

Why not check one or two Long Vehicles topics that we have on the forum and look for posts at 7th September 2007 and later ?

Shazaam, bumped and merged!

[krtaylor]

Anybody seen George recently? Be nice to see a new version.

[PikkaBird]

He last posted yesterday? The LV v5 thread is here. I bumped this one so joshua peli could find the answer to his problems.

[joshua peli]

I've downloaded Long vehicles V4, but it doesn't work...the filename is 4LVw.rar, isn't it? I've put the file in the data folder but if I go on New Grf settings on the OPENTTD's main menù, I can't find it...please, help me!!!
