In the aspect ratio section, your 16:9 shot is actually 16:10; and your 16:10 is actually 5:4. Can you post a 1280x720 for the 16:9 and a rename the first one to the 16:10

You don't need the original version of TTD because it only uses the gfx from the original TTD.

Just a small note for what OS you can use.
Code:
Windows Installer
   Windows Zip file
   Mac OS X (universal, for 10.3.9 or newer only)
   Debian and Ubuntu (all versions x86)
   Sourcecode
   In addition, binaries for different Linux distributions, MorphOS, 64-bit systems, etc. are available here.
   
   Or you can download the files via BitTorrent. For a list of torrents, see here.
   
   Note: there will be no OSX 10.2.8 release, since it fails to compile.

The url for installing on all OS's


I did forget to include 1 big warning

VERY ADDICTIVE

But you still need an original copy of the game to copy the files from right?

On the installation FAQ it says:

1. Obtain a copy of Transport Tycoon Deluxe for Windows or DOS.

so it seems that we'll have to visit a certain interweb-download-a-file-for-free-but-don't-tell-anyone -site (in short, find a torrent)

EDIT: I found it, woohoo... this game looks awesome in 1680x1050 !!!

2nd EDIT: to clarify previous, I obtained a copy of TTD and succesfully installed the whole game...
