What different .grf sets you guys use?

Xaykev · Post by **Xaykev** » 06 Feb 2006 12:02

I was just wondering what different sets of .grf's you guys use when you play OpenTTD....

I play the OpenTTD R3464IN and
I use these grf's:

the DB trainset (dbsetxlw.grf)
new ships (newshipsw.grf)
OpenTTD planes (planesetw_459.grf)
Total Town Replacement version 2 (ttrs2w.grf).

By the way, it doesnt seem that the Total town replacement patch seems to work properly...I have seen the new airport and the new bankbuilding, but the town pretty much look the same...

Are there any other .grf-patches you recommend?

UKRS - it's included to OTTD 0.4.5, isn't it?

I use none.

Yes, but you have to use a specific version namely Set version 0.80 (11 Jul 2004). The only major bug I've found is that the "Sunset" loco doesn't work. Other minor bugs are that a battery wagon shows up under the desert climate and from time to time the mail and passenger wagons don't integrate with their locos. Other than that it works fine.

How did you get the sunset loco working? In fact how did you get 0.86 working?

Pete

for using 0.86 and some other sets, uncomment a line in newgrf.c :

/* Uncomment following if you want to fool the GRF file.
* Some GRF files will refuse to load without this
* but you can still squeeze something from them even
* without the support - i.e. USSet. --pasky */
//| (1 << 0x1C); /* electrifiedrailway */

It does work "without too many bugs", maybe not really as intended by the devs of the set, but well enough for me...

How to use UKRS with OpenTTD? "Mixing" OpenTTD and TTDP is quite confusing for me. Help please.

Have a look at http://ppcis.org/nightly

There the files are available (many thanks to PikkaBird for allowing me to reproduce them there) and also the lines needed in your openttd.cfg. That specific setup is the UKRS, and also Pikka's viaducts and the hovs road vehicles - without which, you'll have no buses for many years.

Change the start date of the game to 1920 for best results.

I can't seem to get the UKRS train set to work properly....
ie the refrigerator wagon looks like a locomotive...and the mail van and the livestock van also look different than what the picture shows...

What am I doing wrong?

Brianetta · Post by **Brianetta** » 07 Feb 2006 00:35

Sounds to me like you're using some other newgrf at the same time, since OpenTTD doesn't have a refrigerator wagon that I am aware of (and neither does UKRS).

Mixing newgrfs rarely works, unless the newgrf files were designed to interoperate.

What do you mean? There's no newgrf.cfg with OTTD...only TTDP. And the USSet already works in TTDP.

Back on topic...at present I'm using the North Americal Renewal set, which seems to have a lot in common with the USSet, only more generic locomotives.
