Hi there,

I would like to explore the saved game behind the title screen when openTTD 0.7.0 loads.

Does anyone have a copy of the saved game or have a link to where I might find it.

I've tried google, FAQ and downloads.

Any information is welcome

make a copy of openttd.dat and rename it to a .sav

more precisely opntitle.dat which is found in the data directory relative to the place you find your executable, too.

The same way (only in reverse) you can make yourself a new title screen btw Note that the savegame you use should not include any newGrfs, or weird things may happen if you delete those newgrfs...

Thanks worked a treat

Anyone else remember the title screen compo? Good times.

Oh yes, I do.

I recently just dug out all the savegames posted there (only the ones w/o newgrf). It kinda motivated me to start my own Feature-Show-off game (heavily cheated) and not yet in the form it's supposed to get. But as a teaser:

Liking the dead-end monorail at the top.
I'm going to have to do this - do you need to build the part you want as the title in the dead centre of the map, or similar?

Wasn't there a patch which would jump between parts of a map at random as the title screen?

No. The view is the same as when you save the game.

Yes, that will be done in due time. It's still work in progress

The view is the same as when saved. And a patch with that exists somewhere in the development subforum, dunno the name anymore, though.

Yup, I did such a patch, but not randomly jumping but jumping through the list of signs so you could specify where it should jump to.

I'll use this thread to post the result as my titlescreen game looks like now.

I didn't play this game for the most advanced network or for the most profit but in order to show as much of the possibilities and variety of what plain OpenTTD offers. I use it also as my (tropical) OpenGFX test game.

Minimum version which loads the savegame is around r16743.

Remember it, it's the only thing I've ever won in my life

in the latest OpenTTD the filename's called "opntitle.dat" (in the DATA folder).
