What TTDPatch version are you using?
Did you add them to your newgrf[w].cfg file?
Did you activate them in-game via the newgrf status window?

i use the newest version... alpha 40 and i activate all the graphics in the TTDX configurator should that not be enough?

EDIT: Currently i have following GRF activated

TRKFOUNDW
SIGNALSW
ELRAILSW
USSETW
NEWSTASW

Code: Select all

in ttdpatch.cfg?
Do you get any error messages when starting the game?

hmm i found out what the problem was... my updater was putting the update in a wrong folder... my old TTDX folder which i now have deleted so everything is in finest order.... sorry for bothering.... now i only have one problem... in that NEWSTATSW GRF should there not be Signal-Boxes... because i can still not find the Signal-Boxes!?

EDIT: hmm that newstations=on was not in my tddpatch.cfg so i just added it... now usstatsw work.... but i can still not find the Signal-Boxes.... and i really miss them :cry:

every time i exit TTD the newstations=on line disapears so every time i want to start TTD i have to write newstations=on and sometimes that wont help.... now my newstatsw works but not usstatsw? do you know what my problem is... cause it is really annoying!? :cry:

try running ttdpatch from the command line with:

Code: Select all

ttdpatchw -a -C ttdpatch.cfg -W ttdpatch.cfg
This will rewrite your config file with all the newer switches turned on to theire default values, and properly commented in the file.

Get your old comp that ran TTD perfectly back? Sorry, just had top add that in.

Speaking of wich, I'm going to try and get my Pent166 IBM laptop back off my sister... Wish me luck...

What do you mean by "swtich to a new station graphic"?

The only meaning I can come up with is "select a new station type in the station building window" and that shouldn't cause the config file to get changed.

well on my old computer everything has been deleted so getting my TTD back from there is impossible....

by switching station graphics i mean in TTDX Configurator to change between US Station graphics and MB's New station graphics and every time i change the line in the ttdpatch file disappears.

You don't need to switch them in TTDXC, they're completely compatible with each other and with all* future sets.
Just hit the little down arrows on the 'build station' window.
Also - try editing your .cfg and launching TTDPatch manually, in case it's a TTDXC problem.

*Up to the limit of course
