Xbox Open Transport Tycoon is a port of OpenTTD. It is a clone of Transport Tycoon Deluxe, a popular game originally written by Chris Sawyer. It attempts to mimic the original game as closely as possible while extending it with new features.

Installation

You need to have the original transport tycoon deluxe datafiles and copy them to data/. List of the required files:

  • sample.cat
  • trg1r.grf
  • trgcr.grf
  • trghr.grf
  • trgir.grf
  • trgtr.grf

Also, when you add music, you need to rename all the *.gm files in the gm/ directory to *.mid.

Supplied with this release is a compiled win32 version of the network branch of openttd, Which has working multiplayer support, so you can play against other win32 and xbox players.

B/R - Right mouse click

Y - Info click

Known issues

  • Joystick -> mouse is slightly dodgy.
  • Loading midis/songs for the first time takes a long time, causing pauses in the game when loading a new song (ranges roughly from 3-15 seconds).
  • The program attempts load them all on startup, but then it takes too long to start, and staring at a black screen for 3-5 minutes isn't everything.
  • Screen is completely filled and not moved/scaled down, this due to the stretch and move screen completely having no effect whatsoever, gonna have to alter its graphic routines to get it right (trouble seeing some buttons, amount of cash, year).

Changelog

v1.1-HCl

  • Fixed/added screen stretch and position, configurable by editing the values in xottd.cfg (first two numbers are top left x, y, second two numbers are the bottom right adjustments which actually should be in the minus (works oddly.))

v1-HCl

  • Working internet/netplay (if you know the address of a server) (hosting on the xbox should be possible too, as long as you know your xbox' ip).
  • Added joystick support.
  • Added music caching.
