Graphics priority suggestions.

Post by Inbreak »

After years without playing TTD i just decided to start playing again, just to discover there's lots of news around.
I've added the latest stable patch, and the latest alpha patch, and theese graphics in this priority (first is lower, last is higher):

LongBusesw.grf
McTrucksw.grf
ScaniaTrucksw.grf
VolvoTrucksw.grf
NavistarTrucksw.grf
SpitzerTrucksw.grf
elrailsw.grf
euroadstw.grf
signalsw.grf
trkfoundw.grf
dbsetw.grf
cargosetw.grf
dbsetxlw.grf
newshipsw.grf
canalsw.grf
newstatsw.grf
arcticsetw.grf
tropicstw.grf

I've tried to read a lot to get into things, but not everything is as it sounds.
Any suggestions to changes in priority? Anything that i don't need there at all (because of other graphics)?
I normally just play temparate, but i might play arctic and temparate too, so i just have them active.

First of all, you double-posted the topic, and you know dbsetxl overwrites the cargoset, so you dont have the need to keep it there unless ya revert to normal dbset. and priority doesn't matter if all of them get used.

And if you wish to use the European Roadset, you should make sure that it has higher priority then DBXLset, because of the railroad crossings.

Doublepost is deleted. Don't know how that happened.
Ok, Euroean Roadset is changed.

According to the dbsetxl documentation there are no cargo trucks in the different DB Sets, so you´ll still need the CargoSet for availability of trucks. Therefore it suggests this priority:
newgrf/dbset.grf
newgrf/tempset.grf
newgrf/cargoset.grf
newgrf/dbsetxl.grf

By the way.
Will the Longer Vehicles set (LongBusesw.grf, McTrucksw.grf, ScaniaTrucksw.grf, VolvoTrucksw.grf, NavistarTrucksw.grf &SpitzerTrucksw.grf) work since i also use the cargoset?

you don't need dbset or tempset for dbsetxl (DBSetXL actually turns those two grfs off).
If you dont mind only having the longer trucks for the extra goods types (and paper), then you don't need the cargoset with any of the long vehicles, but if you want the smaller trucks as well, then you need the cargoset.
However, I am not sure if the longvehicles overwrite trucks from the cargoset (by using the same ID)
