Canal Graphics not working too well

[TrueTenacity]

Hi there, I've just done a fresh install with the latest Nightly... even dug up my old TTD cd to get a fresh copy of the graphics files

But now when i run it, it seems like the canals graphics are missing...

any ideas?

[Zephyris]

Canal graphics should be included in the nightly - if they are missing try downloading the latest stable release (5.3?) and copying the graphics from there. I can't remember the file name off the top of my head, but its something like "canals.grf"!

Ohhh man.... didn't even think of that one...

My installation has the canal graphics GRF, just they look odd.... will pull down a stable and try that tonight....

thanks muchly...

Ok, just tried with a stable install and it gives the same problem...

Do you think it could be caused by me using the DOS versions of the original graphics.....

Is it possible to get the windows ones?

[Zephyris]

Can you give a screenshot? Problems with DOS/windows versions of grfs look quite distinctive...

[TrueTenacity]

Here ya go...

this is with a fresh stable release all i did was copy in my original graphics files from the DOS edition

It is known that the DOS GRFs do not work as expected, however we are working on fixing the issue. It won't be fixed in 0.5.x though.

I also get very very wierd graphics when using the UK Roadset or the CS railset...

[TrueTenacity]

Ah ok, no to worry Rubidium....

Is there any way i could get the windows ones?

[TrueTenacity]

Not to worry...

I downloaded the windows edition of TTD and copied the GRF files outta there...

Fixed and works wonders....
