How to donwload AI behind a Proxy

Post by Angusmast »

Hi everyone.

Currently, I'm connected to the internet behind a proxy.
Every single time I try to download an AI I get the red message "Could not connect to the content server". Is there any way I can configure a proxy, as to donwload the AIs?

I've tried doing it manually, but to no avail...

Cheers.

Here is web access to content server.
Click links in 'downloads' column to download archived AI. Then unpack it into ...openttd_install_dir\ai.
You may need to download libraries too.

Most reliable way to know which libraries (and their versions) that an AI need is to open main.nut inside the tar file and look for lines in the beginning that say import("caterogy.somelib", "SomeLib", <some version>);. Look then for the library SomeLid with that version. If you are lucky that version is the last version of that library and can then use the bananas web interface. If you are not, you have to look at other places to obtain old library versions.
