OpenTTD 1.10.3 for OS/2

[Paul Smedley]

Hi All,

http://smedley.id.au/tmp/openttd-1.10.3-os2-20200903.zip

This is the current release of Open Transport Tycoon for OS/2

Note this is binaries only - it's necessary to install a set of graphics/sounds/etc from https://www.openttd.org/downloads/openttd-releases/latest.html

I've only tested enough to see the main page opens.

Also needs sdl 1.2 libraries.

Cheers,

Paul

Thanks Paul. I will try it out.

I was checking your website and it seems that the "subcategory" of the software on this page is not working:

Hello
I wanted to try this game.
But the installation is making me difficult.

The necessary library says it is the * sdl * but by another place I have seen that it says the * SDL *,
the question is which of the two?
I have tried both and it does not start me.
On the other hand, it says that you have to edit the * openttd.cfg * file, but I can't find it.

Hi Robert.

Can you post which SDL12.DLL version and byte size do you have installed?

OK I think I reproduced. No idea why that was happening - I did some random stuff in cms made simple and it seems ok now?

[roberto]

Thanks for the zip, but I can't start, I'm about to leave it as impossible.

That suggests an incompatible sdl12.dll with different exports to the one I linked against.

Can you check with sdl12 is being loaded using chkdll32 or pmdll?

[roberto]

With the pmdll all the dlls are displayed fine.
With the chkdll32, it shows this error:

[D:\openttd-1.10.3-os2-20200903]chkdll32 -l openttd.exe
  File is not a valid OS/2 .EXE or .DLL file                               ******this is the error show******

Loading DLL 'libcx0' --> C:\USR\LIB\LIBCX0.DLL.                   ****** The rest is a long list of dlls, which is all ok. I cut it *******


  Loading DLL 'DOSCALLS' --> loaded.
  Loading DLL 'MDM' --> C:\MMOS2\DLL\MDM.DLL.
    Loading DLL 'MMPM' --> C:\MMOS2\DLL\MMPM.DLL.
      Loading DLL 'DOSCALLS' --> loaded.

If I try to run the older version it shows me this:

Hi Paul

Cannot test OTTD as I do not have the needed graphics files.

I can test https://os2ports.smedley.id.au/index.php?page=games and report that No, it does not work.
Using Seamonkey there is no content below the line "This section contains all ported games and related applications" and the menu on the left has Internet apps listed or, sometimes, Tools and Utilities but not Games.


Regards

Pete

[Dave Yeo]

Here, the menu on the left seems to work, but no actual games listed on the games page.

re: website, I'll keep investigating, I have no idea what's wrong with cms made (not so) simple
