OpenTTD is one of the most popular open source releases on our site, it is an updated open source version of Microprose's hit game Transport Tycoon Deluxe. A game that's so addictive you'll be spending hours developing your very own transport tycoon company..Well unless you run out of money anyway! So why is this game getting another mention on IRN? Thankfully the team behind OpenTTD are forever keeping it up to date, and have since released a new version with a lot of new features.
Throughout all these years we've had a constant number of updates from the creators of this fine open sourced OpenTTD. In fact this latest version works so well, I even had the pleasure of playing it on Windows 10, complete with open sourced graphics, sound and music without the need of the original Transport Tycoon Deluxe CD.. Although you can still use that if you so wish :). As for what's been changed, see the release notes below from an earlier build.
- Performance improvements - Fast-Forward is now so fast, there is a setting to rate limit it (on by default).
- Improved World Generation GUI - 100% rainforest maps are now available if you so request.
- Towns can now grow with tunnels too - finally they can escape the hills!
- Filter on name in many more windows - for those that enjoy playing with one too many NewGRFs.
- Plant trees with a brush in Scenario Editor - it is like painting, but with trees.
- A new titlegame for this release by Chrnan6710, who won this year’s competition.
