Suggestion - Create custom title screen

Open geby opened this issue 3 years ago • 2 comments

I think the default screen is annoying for most of JGRpp players, since on modern screens a lot of area is quite unused.

So, I thought about possibility to make custom title screen showing stuff from the patch pack instead the old one. If the patch pack supports the new camera control codes, they could be used too.

This could be done by hosting a title screen competition known the "JGRPP Title Screen Competition".

Each participant can submit one entry. In their entry, they must include:

  • A save game that uses some of the main features of JGR's Patch Pack in addition to features from upstream.
    • Map size: 128x128 to 256x256
  • A video of the title screen in action, especially if camera control codes are to be used.
  • A good description of the title game and the (JGRPP-specific) features that it uses.

NOTE: It may take a while to get enough entries (at least 3) due to the decreasing trend of entry counts for vanilla OpenTTD title screen competitions and the relatively small popularity of JGRPP, even compared to vanilla OpenTTD.

You can create your own title screen by saving a vanilla Game and renaming it to opntitle.dat. then replace the originial
