This trainset has been created by Finnish Trainset team. See credits. --------------------- 2 General information --------------------- 2.1 Requirements ---------------- - OpenTTD 1.2.0 or nightly r23842, or higher - Not compatible with TTDPatch 2.2 Installation ---------------- OpenTTD: see http://wiki.openttd.org/NewGRF This NewGRF is available from the ingame Online Content 2.3 Parameter settings ---------------------- Local, express and sleeper passenger MU/coach loading speeds can be defined using NewGRF parametres. Default values are: Local: 40 Express: 25 Sleeper: 15 Purchase and running costs can be defined using NewGRF parametres. Default parametres are: Purchase cost setting: Medium Running cost setting: Medium Wagon and coach running costs can be turned on and off using NewGRF parameter (Enable wagon and coach running costs) Default setting for wagon and coach running costs is on. 2.4 Usage --------- Everything in this set is Finnish rolling stock, in addition of several wagon types from Eastern (Russian) and Western (Sweden, SeaRail) interconnections. Locomotives and multiple units featuring refitting are for deciding the speed and traction effort suitable for freight or passenger operations and/or livery refitting. When livery refitting is available, the default setting is year-dependent livery. That means when the livery is scheduled be changed between specific years, locomotive, multiple unit or coach will automatically update to the next livery. The next option is build year livery, which means that locomotive, multiple unit or coach will remain on the livery scheme as built. It overrides the automatic update of livery, enabling former livery being usable on the time when it's not otherwise available anymore. The third option is to manually choose a livery from liveries already introduced. Speed and traction effort can be choosed at the same time (if locomotive or multiple unit has one) with year-dependent, build year or manual livery. Wagon refitting behaves as in normal OpenTTD, there is cargo-specific graphics on major part of wagons. -------------- 3 Known issues -------------- Some wagons will appear too "tubeous" on consist. If you do notice too tubeous wagons on consist, please report them to the Finnish Trainset DevZone. ------------------------ 4 Background information ------------------------ Information regarding rolling stock is provided from realiable sources. Errors may exist, do report them when encountered. Some locomotives and multiple units feature idling, accelerating and running sound effects. They are used with permissions from several parties: Oskari Kvist, Ville Saarelainen, Suomen Rautatiemuseo (Finnish Railway Museum), Lari Nylund, Juhana Konttinen, Niklas Savinsaari, Pietu Tuovinen, Mikael Sarhervo, Timo Keski-Pitäjä and others. ---------------------------- 5 Frequently Asked Questions ---------------------------- Q: Why can't I use this in older versions of OpenTTD or TTDPatch? A: This NewGRF uses some features only available to OpenTTD r23842 and newer. Furthermore, the most recent version of NML used to build this NewGRF, produces GRF version 8. This is only supported by OpenTTD r23166 and newer anyways. --------- 6 Credits --------- Founder: - Villem Project leading and management: - DanMacK (Dan MacKellar) - Kyosuke1989 (Oskari Kvist) Information basis: - DanMacK (Dan MacKellar) - as - Lakie (Nathaniel Lake) - Kyosuke1989 (Oskari Kvist) - juzza1 (Jussi Virtanen) Graphics (see individual graphic files in the source for details): - DanMacK (Dan MacKellar) - Purno - Hairysteed - jpl (Juhani Pirttilahti) - Kyosuke1989 (Oskari Kvist) - juzza1 (Jussi Virtanen) - Emperor Jake - alluke Sound effects (see individual sound files in the source for details): - Kyosuke1989 (Oskari Kvist) Code: - FooBar (Jasper Vries), initial DevZone-implementation - juzza1 (Jussi Virtanen), NML-based coding on DevZone - Lakie (Nathaniel Lake), earlier NFO-based coding Translations: - Finnish: Kyosuke1989 (Oskari Kvist) Makefile system: - planetmaker (Ingo von Borstel) Special thanks to everyone whom thanks is due. --------------------- 7 Contact information --------------------- 7.1 Bug reports --------------- Please report any bugs you find at bug tracker: http://dev.openttdcoop.org/projects/finnishtrainset/issues or forum topic: http://www.tt-forums.net/viewtopic.php?f=26&t=21457 Always included a detailed description of the bug, preferrably with screenshot and savegame.
