I want to buy me a new original copy of Transport Tycoon Deluxe. Searched
everywhere here in Sweden but haven´t found it.
Do you people know any place in your country that sells TTD and probally
could sell it with shipment to Sweden?

Best Regards
Andreas

Hello

I found some boxes on Ebay. You may also try any european ebay website, 
because postage within Europe is acceptable.

I found one in UK

http://cgi.ebay.de/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=11053&item=8107540520&rd=1&ssPageName=WD2V

The price with delivery is very reasonable.

greeting

Paul

 It can be downloaded from somewhere(at least I downloaded the windows
version when my dos version would not work with XP). If you can't find it I
could send it to you if you have broadband

Check very good whether it's the Win or Dos version. There is a box going
round with TTDLX which says something like 'for windows' on the outside,
but the game is the DOS version.
It doesn't matter if you're using any Win version lower than 2000, but from
2000 on, the Dos version won't work.

I purchased 3 copies from eBay and other sources and they all turned out to
be DOS versions so I downloaded the Win version from here:

Andreas,

just download a copy for free and save your money for Chris Sawyer's new
version, currently called "Locomotion".

But that's the DOS version, and it won't work on NT/2k/XP.

No, you can't use the DOS version to run under Win2K or higher. You can find
download locations for the Windows version of TTD overhere:
http://www.tt-forums.net/viewtopic.php?t=3407
After that, download the TTDpatch and the sets you use for the Windows
version: http://www.ttdpatch.net
If you don't want any of the options provided by the patch but just wanna
play TTD under Win2K or higher, only switch the Win2k switch on. Read the
readme.txt to find out how. Have fun!
