Grf, where are they??

[xendistar]

Is there a list or web site where the various grf pack are available, I have seen some but they are only individual sets??

There is grfcrawler.tt-forums.net/ with individual ones on. Then there is the #openttdcoop's grf pack, with most of the available ones in information here

Thanks T-Unit for the info where to find the grf packs, now my next question

Where can I find a tutorial for adding them to my openTTD install??? I just added them to my /data folder (unzipped where required) and though they show up in OpenTTD and I can load them, when I goto to a new game there is no change. So I guess I am missing something.

Thanks

Yes.. in the intro screen there is a button newgrf settings or something like that... Press it. Now press add. And pick your grfs from a list.

Did that and yes according to the screen they are loaded, but for example I loaded the "3ScaniaTrucksw.grf" and no new vehicles showed up, only the originals. I also loaded the "newshipsw.grf" and they did load.

SO either something wrong or the grf I have don't work with OpenTTD??

There are some GRFs that arent compatible with OpenTTD, so that may be the case. Will try the GRF now, bear with me.

Edit: You need to install this:
"AI manager for Long vehicles v3. Currently only for temperate. Under development. Also includes Ford model T from 1918. Requires all v3 vehicles to be installed" Here. I havent tried it but thats what i seem to find out. If i were you id use Long Vehicles v4.

Ok I will go and have a play, thanks

Keep in mind that GRFs added at the intro screen do not apply to existing games. More infos in the manual.
