Other Options

You may be able to find TTD second-hand on eBay. Again though, unlessyou can find the Windows 95 version of the game, it will not work on Windows NT, 2000, XP or higher.

Getting the game to run on modern versions of Windows

The Windows version of TTD will only run on Windows 95, 98 and Me by default: you need to installTTDPatch if you want to play it on any newer version of Windows. TTDPatch modifies TTD's gameplay in many ways, so pleaseread the manual before using it: in particular, the installation andpatches sections. I receive many e-mails asking me how to set up TTDPatch, and I simply do not have the time to reply tothem all, so please, please, check the manual before contacting me about this.

Windows Vista and later

An additional step is required to get the game to run on Windows Vista or later versions of Windows. You must copy the file DPLAYX.DLL from the windowssystem32 directoryto your TTD directory, and rename it DPLAY.DLL. To do that, enter the following command into Start -> Run: xcopy %windir%system32dplayx.dll c:ttwin95dplay.dll,where c:ttwin95 is your TTD directory.

OpenTTD

Another option, an alternative to TTDPatch, is OpenTTD. OpenTTD is a freeopen-source version of the game, with many enhancements to TTD including vastly superior multiplayer - including online play with up to 8 players, variable-sized maps (from a tiny 64x64 squaresto a huge 2048x2048 squares - 64 times larger than a standard TTD map!), easy installation and many other exciting new features. Even better,OpenTTD now no longer requires the original game data, as there is now a completely fan-made reconstruction of the graphics, sound and music! This is the easiest way to play TTD, so check it out!My easy setup guide is available here.

OpenTTD requires a separate base graphics set to run, which can be downloaded through the installer (Windows) or on first run (Windows, Linux).In case you want to manually download and install it, some options are:

• The Transport Tycoon Deluxe data files can be used as base graphics set. You must own a version of Transport Tycoon Deluxe; they cannot be downloaded.

Sound and music sets are recommended (but not necessary).OpenSFX (sound), and OpenMSX (music) can be installed via the installer or - if you own the CD - also the Transport Tycoon Deluxe sound and music.

Additional graphics, sound, and music sets can be downloaded via the ingame content download manager.
