Hi Javier,
I've finalized a plan for this bug. I intend to close it in the next upload,
but with a minimal solution. I've created a very simple script that captures
openttd's standard error stream and displays it using xmessage if openttd
returns an error code.
This is not as flexible, elegant
Well, from the bunch of information you provided about the rules OpenTTD
uses in finding its data files, I've tried to sanitize the script:
- It now uses `openttd -h` output to determine whether or not some
graphics set has been installed. It will only offer to install the TTDX
data files if
There are (quite) a few cases where openttd-start.sh does not find the
graphics files even when OpenTTD finds them.
First of all OpenTTD also allows the fully uppercase version of the file
names, i.e. data/SAMPLE.CAT data/TRG1R.GRF etc. In the case you copy the
file from an old? Windows/DOS
Hi Javier,
I propose the attached patch, a shell script that would replace openttd as
the command to be executed by the OpenTTD menu item.
Cool, thanks. I already saw the Ubuntu bug report [1], but didn't have time to
reply yet. I like the idea. I don't use the Debian menus myself, I start my
Greetings,
I also think that your approach is better. However, the .deb
configuration scripts would need to make sure that the appropriate Base
graphics option is selected by default within OpenTTD. Also, it does
not cover SFX and music; of those, at least a dummy (empty) sample.cat SFX file
is
