8 Hi,

15 They answer at least partially to many of your questions. Old one is
16 blocked due to security reasons, new one has been under work and a
17 version is available from that bug, they took extra time since openttd
18 developers use some funky multi-platform configuration stuff of their
19 own making, etc.

21 Maybe you could settle for dosbox with the old TTD MS-DOS version
22 until they get everything sorted out with openttd's new version? :)
