KGAT PATCHPACK R16183 32 patchs crashes

[Yexo]

in the development forum there is a thread on how to apply a patch - read that - or read this thread starting from page one!

I've already read how to patch, but I can't do that. I always get some kind of error messages and I don't know what to do then.

Post the exact error message and also what steps you've taken before you got that error. If you do that we might be able to help you.

and after that you'll slowly learn how to ask for help also

Well, I made some screenshots, I hope they will tell you what's the problem.

Sorry, but I'm new here. What did I do wrong?

You're trying to apply a patch to the ai/regression directory, you should apply your patch to the top-level direcotry (with src, bin, projects etc. in it).

[Alberth]

Your OpenTTD source code directory should contain files and directories as shown in http://vcs.openttd.org/svn/browser/trunk/ .
That is normally the directory to start patching from.

However, before patching, you should first check that you can build a working OpenTTD program from your sources as a kind of sanity check of your setup.

Imagine that I had answered you:

You need to get all the source files in some way and then start patching from the start directory.


That's how you asked us for help (at least, I perceived in that way) at first.
Not much to go on eh?

(but posting screen shots was a good solution!!)


Good luck,
Albert

Hi! I think I could patch correctly now, thanks to your help, but I still have some questions. When I patch traffic lights I get the same errors like the last commenter in the traffic lights forum: The errors i am geting are on:

debug.cpp line 34 to 35 and 61 to 62
debug.h line 51
road_cmd.cpp line 175
road_cmd.h line 12 and 13
road_gui.cpp line 653 to 655 and 657 to 668
road_map.h line 196 to 216
saveload.cpp is "not under version control" so "patching is not possible"
saveload.h is "not under version control" so "patching is not possible"
settings.cpp lines 58 to 60, 1077 to 1135 and 1397 to 1402
settings_type.h lines 171 to 176

What should I do with these errors?
Another question: If I patch a file and there is no error during patching, should I do something else to make it work in the game, because I tried another patch files, and there was no error during the patching, but they don't work in the game. Later I post screenshots if needed. Thanks for helping.

saveload.cpp is "not under version control" so "patching is not possible"
saveload.h is "not under version control" so "patching is not possible"

saveload.* got split into two files and thus renamed and - I think - also moved to its own subdirectory. You'll have to find out where in what of those new files that piece of code which you try to patch to the old, not anymore existing file has to go now. Should be nearly straight forward was the actual environment where it belongs probably hasn't changed too much.
