"textContent": "TTDPatch then later OpenTTD have been in a weird legal grey area for it's existence for 25+ years. If anything this is bit of a relief to me, I always felt a bit uneasy about openTTD being on Steam and GOG to start with... that said I am using the steam version out of convenience these days.\n\n\n> They're having a laugh if they think a game from 1995 is worth ten bucks. Especially since they appear to be trying to sell it on the basis that you need it to play OpenTTD, which to my knowledge the graphics are no longer even fully compatible with OpenTTD since you'd be missing a lot of sprites that didn't exist in the original but OpenTTD has since gone on to add.\n\nI primarily use the graphics and music from the old Windows version of TTDX and everything works fine in modern OpenTTD versions, the support for the original basesets was never dropped. Infact for anything that isn't in the original graphics files, openTTD tries to mimic it's pixel style where it's appropriate so there isn't any openGFX style sprites mixed in (that said, I'm a fan how much more faithful looking OpenGFX2 looks like so kudos to that team).\n\nI can't see myself spending ten bucks on this, but maybe pick it up for sale on five bucks just so I can say I have the legal version of Deluxe... I only owned the weird pre-TTD world edition game, the one with the mars graphics alternate set. Which for many years was the main version I still saw sold in stores, not TTD.\n\nStatistics: Posted by Ailure — 14 Mar 2026 18:03\n\n* * *",
