OpenTTD 1.0.2-RC1

This weekend we released the first release candidate for the upcoming OpenTTD 1.0.2. It is a maintenance release without big new features, but with a lot of bugfixes.

Please help testing the release candidate, whether it is as good as we intend it to be, or whether something unforeseen sneaked in. You can find the download as well as the detailed changelog at the very topleft of this page.

OpenTTD 1.0.1

Today we released OpenTTD 1.0.1, the first maintenance release of the 1.0 series. It fixes quite a number of bugs, including some serious security vulnerabilities which can quite spoil online playing.
We urge server owners to update as soon as possible.

OpenTTD 1.0.1-RC2

The first fruits of testing have been gathered. Thank you! Now, get ready for the next tree: OpenTTD 1.0.1-RC2 :)

You can find the download and changelog as usual at the very top left of this page. Every tester is welcome! Also note that the recent zlib-related problems with content download got resolved.

OpenTTD 1.0.1-RC1

More users result in more bugreports, which result in more bug fixes, which result in more releases. So, it's time for the first release candidate for 1.0.1.

For the new users, who are not yet aware of OpenTTD's versioning schema: 1.0.1 is going to be a bugfix release, so do not expect any big features. Most noticeable are some desync fixes. So please help testing the release candidate, so 1.0.1 becomes as stable as possible.

Problems with zlib (content downloads)

A note for some Unix/Linux/OSX users: Content download will not work for users of zlib 1.2.3.5 to (including) 1.2.4. Either downgrade zlib, or wait for the next release of zlib which is said to be expected in a few days. This issue affects all versions of OpenTTD that have content downloading, i.e. everything since 0.7.0.
Users of our precompiled Windows binaries are not affected by this.
