In patch, you don't even have to reload the save. Just beat on the GRF author helper window.

Why didn't I ever notice that one, it is more helpfull than what I was doing previously I guess

You've sent me the initial ones. The hotfix not.

Well, I could release something, but it wont work properly with TTDP. Also, I got some secret new graphics that need coding.

Red*Star · Post by **Red*Star** » 08 May 2007 19:36

Maybe I've forgotten it or even didn't understand it when I was asking the first time, but /what/ exactly was the problem with TTDPatch?

Btw: I've cutted down now the Jena Paradies station and the Hannover Messe Laatzen station. Still one thing remaining: The big modern station thingy with the green roof, and then it is all done.

Well with Berlin Lehrter Bahnhof the platforms are built fine but the plazas and buildings aren't built properly but Xeryus did fix this so I don't know exactly what the problem is.

XeryusTC · Post by **XeryusTC** » 08 May 2007 20:20

Well, there is a problem if you build the plaza and the main station and cut some rows of the main station to make it shorter, the game reverts to using only the upper right tile IIRC :s. I was looking into it but I still don't know exactly where it comes from

Red*Star · Post by **Red*Star** » 08 May 2007 20:22

Uhm, if that only occurs in TTDPatch then it may be a TTDPatch bug. Are there other station sets which do have the same/a similar problem?

XeryusTC · Post by **XeryusTC** » 08 May 2007 20:25

Well, according to the documentation (well, my interpretation of it) and OpenTTD my code is fine, and according to Patchman there is no bug in TTDPatch (I asked a few weeks ago). I might try to poke Patchman again tomorrow, or try another less fool proof method that will do basicly the same.

Yeehaaaw! After two days splitting session (and I /mean/ two days: alltogether ca. 2x12 hours of work) now there are ready:

- the Jena Paradies station
- the Hannover Messe Laatzen station
- the damn huge and complex modern train station (the one with the elliptic roof), now I've given it the fantasy name "Racoon City station"
- and of course all the platform bases and tracks needed for the modern station set graphics package
- including skybridges, detail stuff and much more.

Apart of that is already done:
- all station plazas (done 2006, but then added many sprites 2007)
- the Berlin mainstation (done in Feb 2007)

The Berlin mainstation is coded (due to a bug there was no release until yet) and the station plazas are in XeryusTCs coding queue.

See below for some impressions of the set, especially the new stuff - this weekend I will take a last look at the final sprites and then send them to XeryusTC. After that you cannot longer blame me for the finalizing process taking so *damn long*

Regards, Red*Star

It seems like I'm up for some time coding, I hope I can still get out a bit

Im in awe....

Very impressive artwork. Though a bit out of scale I think. Compared to TT-buildings, this roof is HUGE, while the station only has 3 tracks...
