Transport Tycoon is just so good!  OpenTTD is much better!  Can't wait for further improvements!

If you haven't played OpenTTD before, please note that you need data files from Transport Tycoon Deluxe (Win or DOS) and those are copyrighted material.

Check Ebay and your friends if they have the game.

Yes, it's so nice that someone still bothers to create something by him/herself.

Hi,

Has anyone had any luck in getting the 68K version running?

Ali: It would help if you would specify the problem?

About OpenTTD AOS4 version: the PNG icon is done by BladeRunner, and was included by accident (I thought it was GPL'd too).

Lempkee:
Didn`t know about the 68k Archive, but had just a look into the OS 4.0 one because I thought i would give it a try on os 4.0 emu (well i forgot that sdl still isn`t working, and don`t ask why I`ve tried it ;-) )and then saw my icon included.

But as I allready stated on A-news I made just a kind of joke comment, because there where so many people complaining :-)

It is just an Icon and was made for the MOS OTTD Version, but everyone who like to use it is free to do so (speaking of the greycale png icon, the glowicon was afaik first also png and made by tokai?!)

So again, feel free to led the icon included :-)

I've found the problem now... it needs SDL, which in turn needs a graphics card and won't work with "El Boggo" AGA graphics!

Oh well... I'll continue to play it on the PeeCee then...

Theoretically, someone could write AmigaOS gfx/event code, but I doubt nobody is really interested...

Besides... I'm guessing that a "native" AGA version in its 256 colour mode would be very slow...

Very likely. But maybe emulator users would like game anyway :)
