Unused rails

Hello,

I know this topic has been discussed, but I haven't logged in for a while. I also tried searching for "unused rails" or something in OpenTTD Graphics but no findings, or not what I meant.

So, I just wanna ask how is that grf? Is it done or was it just a good idea?
(unused rails = when you don't use railways for a longer time they become "covered" with grass...)

Thanks,

Bertee

If you fail to see the link in secoond post as answer, then your question isn't the same ;)..In that case more description what do you want maybe...?

links should really have another color than dark green (or at least be underlined) :?

That would make it a lot easier to read for sure! :D

well, one could still select one of the other board styles - prosilver or subsilver2

but they are so boring and generic compared to this nice transport tycoon style, whose only flaw are the aforementioned hardly visible links...

anyways this is getting OT, sorry.

I might be noob, but I've tried putting this patch into my data folder but it won't work, it's not along the patches in game menu...it should work with 0.6.0 beta, shouldn't it?

And umm, what's that diff file? Is that supposed to be put in data too?

Thanks -.-'

You might be a noob (although I hope not :) ), but the diff file is same as patch file..You have to apply it to the source code of OpenTTD and compile..For applying a patch please see sticky in the development forum...and for compiling, on Linux you can use BuildOTTD (doens't work on Vista though) and for linux you can run ./configure && make on command line after you have installed required things and downloaded source.
