(svn r14689) -Change: make configure die on commonly made user mistakes, like not having SDL development files or zlib headers installed; you can still compile a dedicated server or a binary without zlib, but you have to explicitly force it.
openttd for Debian
------------------
To properly play this game, original data files are needed.
You should copy the data files from the original TTD into the data directory
(/usr/share/games/openttd/data). You should copy these files:
* trg1r.grf
* trgcr.grf
* trghr.grf
* trgir.grf
* trgtr.grf
* sample.cat
-Music
For in game music (optional), you should copy all files in the gm/
subdir of your ttd installation to /usr/share/games/openttd/gm. You
should also install timidity and a soundfont (freepats is packaged in
Debian and works out of the box).
Don't forget to use -m extmidi if you want music, and if you have
problems, remember that not all audio devices support multiple
audiostreams (music and sound), so you might have to use software
mixing. My VIA AC97 device cannot do hardware mixing, for example.
-Scenarios
There are no scenarios included in this release. Scenarios can be
downloaded separately from the OpenTTD website and all over the
internet. Place scenarios in your ~/.openttd/scenario directory to
use them.
