00:00:45  <Reinbachh> Hmm, the mystery deepens, when I rename one of the files to .mid and try to play it, it's silent
00:01:10  <OwenS> I think we can safely assess it's not an OpenTTD problem then
00:02:04  <Eddi|zuHause> Reinbachh: if you open the windows mixer settings, maybe midi output is set to silent?
00:02:47  <PeterT> Is it too late to vote?
00:03:11  <Reinbachh> Eddi|zuHause- I just checked that and it was. I've turned it up and it's still not playing.
00:03:23  <Reinbachh> Also the equaliser thing on the jukebox doesn't move up and down, nor does it play at all
00:03:26  * Reinbachh is baffled
00:03:33  <peter1138> no soundfont loaded?
00:03:58  <Eddi|zuHause> Reinbachh: the equalizer never moves, as openttd cannot get feedback from the midi player
00:04:07  <Reinbachh> Ah ok...
00:04:19  <Reinbachh> I'm 100% sure it's my system though, definitely not ottd :p
00:04:24  <PeterT> Is it too late to vote?
00:04:33  <Eddi|zuHause> PeterT: yes, 5 minutes
00:04:39  <PeterT> gah
00:04:53  <Eddi|zuHause> maybe if you ask nice enough ;)

00:05:10  <PeterT> Rubidium: Would you mind if I please told you my vote here?
00:08:30  <Reinbachh> Hm, PC won't play midi files *at all*
00:09:07  * Reinbachh shrugs :D
00:09:14  <Eddi|zuHause> so much for "definitely does play midi" :p

00:10:01  <Reinbachh> I've got two soundcards in this machine
00:10:09  <Reinbachh> And it's using the one I've mostly disabled
00:10:14  <Reinbachh> Silly computer
00:10:30  <Reinbachh> Mystery solved
00:10:32  <__ln__> surprisingly, the implication "false → true" is false.
00:10:52  <Reinbachh> Yes it mightn't be is.
00:13:08  <Reinbachh> Thanks for your help, I think it'll be fixed after the restart :p

01:51:48  <Eddi|zuHause> man, the ship pathfinder is stupid... it can't even manage a simple bend in a river...
01:53:32  <Rubidium> OPF? It's not stupid, it just stops after 4 turns
01:55:42  <Eddi|zuHause> 4 is kinda very little...
01:55:58  <Eddi|zuHause> it's probably fine on open sea, but on narrow rivers?
01:57:01  <Eddi|zuHause> and opengfx rivers need more visible "rocks" in the waterfalls, so it is more noticeable that they cannot be passed by ships...

03:12:58  <zachanima> or today anyway
03:13:04  <PeterT> Fuck me
03:13:12  <PeterT> I rushed into voting
03:14:01  <Eddi|zuHause> the spontaneous decisions sometimes are the best
03:14:55  <zachanima> arguably so - or at least might be truest to your feelings (without the abstraction of reason)
03:14:58  <zachanima> or some such
03:15:09  <zachanima> anyway, I am still somewhat undecided between two of them

12:05:08  <lestat> hi all
12:05:52  <lestat> as do I start server and see me?
12:06:09  <Eddi|zuHause> you need to configure your router and firewall
12:06:11  <Eddi|zuHause> @ports
12:06:11  <DorpsGek> Eddi|zuHause: OpenTTD uses TCP and UDP port 3979 for server <-> client communication, UDP port 3978 for masterserver (advertise) communication (outbound), and TCP port 3978 for content service, a.k.a. BaNaNaS (outbound)
12:07:03  <lestat> I have port 7939 open on your router and firewall
12:08:04  <planetmaker> well. wrong port ;-)

12:10:00  <Eddi|zuHause> that should be ok
12:10:08  <Rubidium> the IPs differ
12:10:15  <Rubidium> ...30 vs ...130
12:11:36  <lestat> in windows firewall too?
12:14:12  <lestat> ports are already open and can not see the server but I do?
12:14:35  <lestat> or is it takes a while?
12:14:54  <Eddi|zuHause> it should list on servers.openttd.org after a few minutes
12:16:10  <lestat> few more or less?

13:43:31  <Eddi|zuHause> it isn't cluttered by fancy but pointless graphics, instead it is reduced to pure gameplay

13:53:41  <Eddi|zuHause> it's basically the whole opposite of OpenTTD, they focused on new graphics without changing gameplay at all

16:27:57  <mjk> Hiho!
16:30:11  <mjk> How can I use the original TTD MIDI music from the DOS version? I have a 0,4 MB file named "gm.cat", and I can use a tool from the net (tttools.zip) to extract 22 files from it, but when I name the resulting files "gm_tt00.gm" etc., OpenTTD 1.0.0rc1 claims it's the Windows version MIDI files, and that they are corrupted.
16:31:25  <Eddi|zuHause> openttd does not understand the dos midi format
16:31:37  <mjk> Eddi|zuHause: Okay, thanks for the sad news. :-}
16:31:49  <mjk> Interesting, that the formats differ at all ...
16:32:35  <Eddi|zuHause> the dos music files contain some obscure formats optimised for certain sound cards, the windows version contains clean general midi
16:32:40  <Rubidium> the DOS version is something midi-ish specific for a specific 'brand' of sound cards, the Windows version is generic
16:32:45  <mjk> Eddi|zuHause: Aaaah, okay ...
16:32:49  <mjk> Rubidium: Okay, thanks ...
16:32:52  <Rubidium> same that the dos graphics use another palette than the windows version
16:33:05  <mjk> Rubidium: Ah, right, I saw that in a menu somewhere ...
16:33:45  <mjk> At least I'm glad that OpenTTD runs with the original DOS gfx and sfx files. Thanks to the developers!
16:34:41  <mjk> (Yes, I know OpenGFX and OpenSFX, but the orig files are just in case that Open* proves to be not "different" enough from the originals and some assh^Wlawyer/judge claims it's not free)

19:33:28  <mjk> Okay, this is *way* to confusing, so I have to ask here: Can I run a plain vanilla 1.0.0rc1 with 32bpp graphics? Not necessarily with full-zoom-support, but the nice 32bpp graphics.
19:33:34  <peter1138> yes
19:33:42  <mjk> Yippiiiiieh!
19:33:49  <peter1138> and, indeed 0.7.x, and 0.6.x (i think)
19:34:08  <mjk> So I'll try ...

19:40:23  <mjk> Hmmm ... is there any object on the 1.0.0rc1 intro screen where I could see a noticable 32bpp improvemtn? Because I think it doesn't work (yet).
19:42:24  <frosch123> just turn on transparency
19:42:35  <mjk> Checking
19:42:38  <frosch123> or font antialiasing
19:42:38  <Rubidium> mjk: depends on the blitter and whether you've got the right grahpics
19:43:00  <mjk> As far as I understood, copying the content of the "32Bpp Graphics Base Set" to ~/.openttd/data should be enough ... so I unpacked the .7z file and put the resulting sprites/ directory into ~/.openttd/data
19:43:38  <frosch123> most important: you have to start it with "-b 32bpp-optimized" or "-b 32bpp-anim"
19:43:43  <frosch123> resp. set it in openttd.cfg
19:44:03  <mjk> frosch123: A-haaa! Will try ...

19:49:24  <__ln__> gaah. okay, *now* my NFS server finally got back operational and all the blocked processes on another system were unblocked.
19:49:45  <mjk> Interesting. The only difference (also switched transparency on/off with "x") I can see that with "-b 32bpp-*", the mouse cursor looks more like the original. Everything else seems the usual 8bpp dithered gfx ...
19:50:07  <mjk> __ln__: NFS suxx, we know ... :-/
19:50:17  <mjk> __ln__: (Even with operational hardware)
19:50:25  <__ln__> 13:03 < __ln__> wisdom of the day: never use NFS for anything on Linux unless you are a thirty-ton elephant
19:51:12  <mjk> __ln__: Damn, too late. :-} Using NFS for exported $HOME ... including Maildir-style mailbox. No, new mail checking was more reliable w/o NFS.
19:51:15  <mjk> *sigh*
19:52:40  <mjk> Is there anything I'm missing: OpenTTD 1.0.0rc1 +
19:53:01  <mjk> Is there anything I'm missing: OpenTTD 1.0.0rc1 + OpenGfx + OpenSfx (unused) + 32 Bpp Gfx Base Set + 32 Bpp Full Tar Pack?
19:53:18  <mjk> And "-b 32bpp-anim/optimized", of course.
19:53:42  <Rubidium> might be that the bases gfx things depend on the original graphics or so
19:53:55  <CIA-2> OpenTTD: yexo * r19298 /trunk/src/newgrf_station.cpp: -Fix: [NewGRF] segfault when station vars 0xF2/0xF3 is accessed when there is no truck/bus stop
19:54:02  <mjk> Rubidium: Okay, I got the DOS original, will try that ...
19:54:18  <Rubidium> it's just that "nobody" seems to want to use 32bpp, so it probably does not work very well
19:54:34  <peter1138> at least you don't need to untar them now :D
19:54:37  <Rubidium> mjk: and then probably only the window version of the graphics
19:55:55  <mjk> Rubidium: Grmf, damn ...
19:56:23  <frosch123> if you untar it hte foldername has to match the .grf files
19:56:23  <mjk> Rubidium: Interesting ... why is that so? It's so much nicer! On the screenshots at least ...
19:56:47  <peter1138> there are screenshots?
19:56:57  <peter1138> the full-zoom packs are not even compatible with trunk's 32bpp, so...
19:57:37  <Rubidium> mjk: the dos graphics is very seldomly used
19:57:39  <mjk> frosch123: for the 32bpp base gfx set, that's true, e.g. I have: ~/.openttd/data/opengfx1_base.grf and ~/.openttd/data/sprites/opengfx1_base/
19:58:01  <mjk> Rubidium: Yes, I thought I'd bought the Windows version, because it came on CD ...
19:58:17  <mjk> Rubidium: But it seems the DOS version also came on CD ...
19:58:23  <mjk> Rubidium: The DOS files are 16 MB.
19:58:54  <mjk> frosch123: The full tar pack has only TAR files, however.
19:58:55  <frosch123> with opengfx it should work :)
19:59:14  <mjk> frosch123: *growl* Seems to work for everyone except for li'l mjk :-(
19:59:16  *** PeterT_ [~PeterT@c-65-96-204-251.hsd1.ma.comcast.net] has quit [Quit: Leaving]
19:59:20  <peter1138> mjk, the only difference, for 32bpp purposes, is the directory name
20:00:46  <mjk> peter1138: So ~/.openttd/data/opengfx1_base.grf and ~/.openttd/data/sprites/opengfx1_base/ is okay? OpenTTD will override the files in ~/.openttd/data with the files from ~/.openttd/data/sprites?
20:01:07  <peter1138> probably :s
20:01:13  <mjk> peter1138: :-}
20:02:47  <mjk> Oh well, it seems I have to wait until the 32bpp (and maybe the full-zoom-support) gets officially supported ... I shouldn't be so impatient at my age. ;-)
20:02:56  <mjk> Thanks for your help anyway, folks!
20:03:15  * OwenS ponders why ld cant find symbols supposedly generated by my explicit template specialization
20:03:24  <Belugas> mmh... why wold you say that?  There is an age to be patient?
20:03:39  <peter1138> mjk, sure they're not graphics for extra zoom? heh
20:04:16  <mjk> Belugas: Yeah, when you're so old that you have to wait for the nurse. ;-)
20:04:28  <Belugas> hehehe
20:04:38  <mjk> peter1138: Hmm ... I downloaded them from http://www.tt-forums.net/viewtopic.php?f=36&t=46682
20:04:49  <Belugas> at that age, you actually forget that there is a nurse coming in !
20:05:04  <peter1138> then that will be graphics for extra zoom
20:05:04  <mjk> peter1138: Though the post says "OTTD with Full zoom support", I didn't think that they needed different versions ...
20:05:08  <mjk> Belugas: |-)
20:05:14  <mjk> peter1138: Damn.
20:05:29  <peter1138> the author of the patches decided to make it non-compatible
20:05:31  <mjk> peter1138: You don't happen to have a link for the 32bpp (w/o Zoom) files?
20:05:36  <mjk> peter1138: Oh great ...
20:05:47  <mjk> peter1138: We need more versions !!!111oneeleven
20:07:19  <frosch123> mjk: if you use opengfx 32bpp from dev.openttdcoop.org you can easily notice its presence by looking at the openttd letters in the intro menu
20:07:32  <mjk> That's not fair ... everything that says only "32bpp" is actually "32bpp full zoom"
20:07:44  <mjk> frosch123: *checking*
20:09:06  <frosch123> but despite of that it only contains 3 toyland houses, mabye one tropical, and the info icon :)
20:09:52  <peter1138> heh, yeah, not very complete
20:13:56  <mjk> ARGH!!!
20:14:10  <mjk> What is the FSCKing matter? Am I too stupid to copy files??!!
20:14:19  <mjk> I .... I ....
20:14:21  <mjk> I despair.
20:15:03  <mjk> I can see the graphics with a picture viewer, yes. But the absolutely do not appear in the game. Not with -b 32bpp-anim and not with -b 32bpp-optimized
20:15:14  <mjk> Am I too old? I'm 38.
20:16:09  <frosch123> i have ~/.openttd/data/sprites/ogfx1_base/4627.png, 32bpp-anim and the opengfx 8bpp base set
20:16:42  <peter1138> not too old, just less young
20:16:49  <mjk> :-}
20:16:59  <mjk> what, what, what??! sprites? Okay, will copy it to that directory -- the original hierarchy in the zip file was: data/opengfx1_base/....
20:17:23  <mjk> YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
20:17:24  <frosch123> 8bpp opengfx has yellow letters, when 32bpp is activated they become - hmm - a bit blue
20:17:29  <mjk> FINALLY!

20:17:46  <mjk> His balls! NOW!
20:18:06  * mjk tries to cool down -- by looking at the new 32bpp logo ;-)

20:18:17  <mjk> frosch123: Thanks a zillion!
20:18:48  <mjk> Bug trackers ... tried to register for the openttd bts, but to no avail ...
20:19:11  <frosch123> http://dev.openttdcoop.org/projects/opengfx32bpp/issues <- there
20:19:18  <mjk> I hate it when there is no standard, GUI-less bug reporting tool ...
20:19:22  <mjk> frosch123: Will try ...
20:20:05  * Rubidium considers HTTP and HTML to be standards
20:20:17  * Rubidium also considers telnet/nc GUI-less
20:20:38  <mjk> Rubidium: Errr ... well ... GUI-less, but also ... USE-less. :-)
20:20:52  <mjk> Rubidium: I thought more of a ncurses/CLI based tool.
20:20:57  <mjk> Like "reportbug" in Debian.
20:21:16  <Rubidium> then report it there
20:21:22  <Ammler> frosch123: that isn't 32bpp project...
20:21:34  <frosch123> not?
20:21:42  <planetmaker> There is none really ;-)
20:21:43  <Rubidium> but then, reportbug *is* not standard
20:21:46  <frosch123> it just says in its name
20:21:47  <glx> opengfx32bpp is not 32bpp ?
20:21:49  <Rubidium> it's custom-build for Debian
20:21:51  <Ammler> that is just for opengfx 32bpp sprites
20:21:57  <mjk> Rubidium: Hmmm ... yes, best bet. Though that should be for specifically Debian-related bugs ...
20:21:59  <planetmaker> well, it is... sort of
20:22:01  <Rubidium> whereas flyspray is *more* a standard
20:22:11  <mjk> Rubidium: flyspray? cvhecking ...
20:22:34  <mjk> frosch123: As always, I cannot register for their BTS ... *sigh* But thanks for finding out the URL anyway!
20:22:39  <Ammler> I guess, best place for 32bpp issues is at tt-forums, imo.
20:23:08  <mjk> Rubidium: Hm, the homepage says "web-based" .. does that mean: no ncurses/CLI tool?
20:23:11  <glx> Ammler: but at tt-forums they tend to do only extra zoom

20:23:59  <Rubidium> mjk: yes, unless someone has written such a tool
20:24:06  <Rubidium> feel free to do so by the way
20:24:13  <Nite_Owl> Hello all
20:24:17  <Rubidium> just like someone did for Debian
20:24:26  <planetmaker> mjk, why would you not be able to register at a bug tracker?
20:24:45  <mjk> Rubidium: Okay, thanks ... if I had the nerves, I'd do that ... but then again, what good is such a tool, if not everyone uses the underlying database?
20:25:18  <mjk> planetmaker: I don't know. I never get validation emails ...
20:25:39  <Rubidium> 'cause reportbug was written *months* after debbugs was written
20:25:42  <Ammler> then you should look for a better email isp
20:25:47  <mjk> planetmaker: Maybe I should switch to another spam-mail-address supplier than spambog.com ...
20:26:20  <mjk> Ammler: The only BTS I ever supplied a "real" address is the Debian bug tracker.
20:26:22  <Rubidium> I hate people using those for the bug tracker. Those bug reports are as useless as anonymous bug reports
20:26:31  <planetmaker> mjk, then use an e-mail address which you actually can receive...
20:27:02  * planetmaker agrees with Rubidium ... then there's no way to get back. And the quality is usually the same
20:27:07  <mjk> planetmaker: I can receive spambog.com mails. It's a temporary mailbox with arbitrarily chose mailbox names.
20:27:51  <mjk> planetmaker: The quality of my bug reports is not like "hey this stinx, nothing works, I got an error message but will not tell you which !!!11", rest assured. |-)
20:28:15  <planetmaker> how can I know?
20:28:22  <Rubidium> then what kind of bug report is it?
20:28:26  <planetmaker> Your effort to report kinda leads to this assumption
20:28:30  <Rubidium> "the 32bpp full zoom graphics don't work"
20:28:40  <Rubidium> or
20:28:43  <mjk> Rubidium: :-)
20:28:53  <Rubidium> "the 32bpp non-full zoom graphics don't work with the dos base graphics set"
20:29:01  <Rubidium> or
20:29:05  <mjk> Rubidium: In this case, I already know the reason for the bug (it's trivial once you find out), and I would supply a "patch" for it.
20:29:10  <Rubidium> "the readme of the 32bpp graphics is totally crappy"
20:29:43  <yorick> "help i download this file and then i put it in and now its not working"
20:29:51  <mjk> Rubidium: :-) The path stored in opengfx...zip is wrong. It's "data/opengfx1_base/..." instead of "sprites/opengfx1_base/...". Something like that.
20:29:57  <mjk> 8-))
20:30:23  <Rubidium> oh, then it doesn't belong to our bug tracker anyhow
20:30:38  <mjk> Rubidium: It was for the BTS frosch123 gave me ...
20:31:09  <Ammler> well, it is for the tracker you get the pack from
20:31:34  <Ammler> if you downloaded from tt-forums, you should also report there
20:31:40  <mjk> My bug reports are more like these: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=384365  and  http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=387278

20:35:24  <mjk> planetmaker: Although I use only throw-away mail addresses for web-based BTSes, I do track the bug report a while (up to 1 or 2 weeks) and answer questions from the developer.
20:36:30  <planetmaker> current spam filters are not that bad. Even my most exposed e-mail addresses have an acceptable ratio after filtering
20:37:33  <mjk> planetmaker: Yes, but I'm a litte too paranoid regarding false positives ... and it's more work perusing your spam folder for false positives than deleting spam from your inbox.
20:38:19  <mjk> Social problems cannot be solved by means of technology ...
20:38:38  <planetmaker> mjk, I'm not telling that you should use your primary address there... I don't either

21:36:37  <__ln__> mjk: are »these« sometimes used?
21:36:57  <mjk> __ln__: Yes.
21:37:15  <mjk> __ln__: Those are called French Quotes (I guess) or "Guillemets"
21:37:31  <__ln__> french → bad? :)
21:37:49  <__ln__> but thanks
21:37:51  <mjk> __ln__: Otherwise, we use <lowerquote>blah<upperquote>, either single or double, depending on the nesting.
21:38:09  <mjk> __ln__: :-) No, French quotes are absolutely okay.
21:38:42  <aber> any french people here?
21:38:51  <mjk> __ln__: Oh, and in Germany or Austria, it's >>blah<<, while in Switzerland and Liechtenstein, it's <<blah>> (direction reversed)

21:44:46  <aber> mjk:
21:44:50  <aber> ups
21:44:55  <mjk> aber: German typewriters (at least older / mechanical ones) have only the upper quotes.

21:46:44  <mjk> aber: Imageshack or something ...
21:48:38  <mjk> Ah, I see that there's another form of single quotes: two upper single quotes, where the left quote is at the same height of the right quote, but upside-down.
