A game from DarkUK
Third try’s the charm? We hope so; here’s our third release candidate for OpenTTD 15.
Most notably, the game no longer forgets your script configuration, and we’ve also fixed some rare crashes. See the changelog for the full list.
As always, if you spot any more bugs, please report them here.
If you’re one of our valued translators, this is the last call for translations for OpenTTD 15! Check on your language here.
Today we release 15.0-RC2, the second release candidate for the upcoming release. You’ve found several issues in the first release candidate, mostly related to the expanded font rendering. In the interest of stability, we’ve backed most of them out again, for a return at a later date when the feature is more stable. As always, see the changelog for the full list.
However, there is a good chance there are still some issues out there that haven’t been found yet. Please help us hunt those down, and if you find one, you can report them here.
Translation updates are coming in every day, and while some languages are complete or are nearing completion, there are also translations with missing or outdated strings. If you are a translator, please see if your language has any missing translations. We greatly appreciate your contribution!
Good things come to those who wait. OpenTTD 15 is starting the final lap with first release candidate!
With a release candidate, the focus shifts from adding new features to finding and fixing bugs to make OpenTTD 15 the best OpenTTD yet. The finding part is where you, the players, come in, too. If there’s anything you notice, head over to our issue tracker and make a report.
If you’ve already played any of the betas and use the OpenGFX baseset, you might have noticed a message about missing sprites. This is due to some of the new features in OpenTTD 15. We recommend switching to the newer (and still updated) OpenGFX2 baseset, which you can easly get via the in-game content downloader.
Some notable changes over the previous beta3 release are:

April 1st has come and gone, but have no fear, for beta2 is here.
We’ve fixed a bunch more since beta1, and need more testing. Also, we added some new features! Highlights include:

What are badges, you ask? Badges are something add-on (NewGRF) authors can put on their content to help you find e.g. the vehicle or station you want to use. For example, various vehicle add-ons use a mix of different icons, overlay images or texts to indicate the power source or the suggested usage of a vehicle. With badges, this information can be represented in a clear way including built-in filtering, that is cohesive between different add-ons.
As this beta is the first release featuring badge support, there aren’t many updated add-ons yet, but we’re excited to see what authors do with the new feature.
Finally, the usual titlegame competition has been announced on the forums.
