What NewGRFs are you using?

If I were to guess, Most likely too many.
Try getting rid of some you don't need.

Is it posible to make this limit bigger, because when I tried to make optimal comfiguration (long buses, UKRS, czech tracks and roads, stations, planeset etc.) that limit made it impossible.

No, not currently.

That's the sprite limit (the one that's there and not there)BlasterTransport wrote:I thought OTTD didn't have a sprite limit but what's with this error message?
Even thought the will can make future features possible, it's not enough to just have the will, so we can't just sit in a circle and wish the sprite limit will go away (would be cool if it worked though). We actually have to look into the code and it's not always easy to modify without causing a whole lot of bugs.

That is very intresting with the sprite limit, I know that there used to be one which would kick in after about 8 newgrf's installed, but it seems to me that with the latest nightly that this has been upped a lot, infact I thought they may have even got rid of it after seeing all the newgrf's installed.
this is my newgrf list.

If you remove those 334* you can use a lot more grfs(that's what I was told when i posted this a while ago).

There is LV4. Why You dont use this?Invisble wrote: 334*

Because for some reason lv4 does not seem to work, maybe I am doing something wrong I don't know. But everytime I install it, I only get the original game vehicles and nothing new, even when I put the date to 2049 there are no long vehicles.ISA wrote:There is LV4.

There is also the fact that the buses on 4LVw are incompatible with Pb_hovs_bus.grf, which is my preferred bus set.

Now that is intresting, 4LVw now works with the latest nightly, including livery refits. And I am a happy man

Does it work with the Aviators Planet, UKRS trains, new ships and new stations too?
Posted: 01 Nov 2006 08:59

I better try the latest one.Posted: 01 Nov 2006 13:09
Each of those sets works individually and in combination with the others, but not all at the same time. This is because of (da da da) the sprite limit.

mm Intresting, DBsetXl, Planeset and Long vehicles version4 all together excede the sprite limit on r7005
Considering that those 3 are probably 3 of the most common grf sets used I am wondering how hard it is to up the sprite limit? though I am guessing very hard indeed.
