patch which allows other midi player to be specified in the configuration file
Atfer installing this brilliant game I realized that timidity does not works
very well for playing midi. I was even not satisfied with the compile time
option to change the application which plays the midi files. Finally I took the
source and added an option to specify that application and its arguments in the
configuration file. Here is the patch which adds this feature.
Although its documented in the ebuild (which I am going to upload next) here a
short explanation:
Define external_midiplayer and external_midiplayer_arg to override the default
midi player application (usually /usr/bin/timidity) and its arguments.
Now you can use aplaymidi and such.

The new configuration file options are documented using einfo.
I will add these things soon. This is fixed now that openttd-0.3.4 is in portage... |
Depend on app-arch/unzip(needed to unpack the -useful stuff). Add ~amd64 keyword. Add notice about soundfonts since they are neccessary for music(plain timidity won't work). Also, David Holm left out the icon, but the current ebuild still tries to use it anyway for the launcher. I suggest adding the icon to ${FILESDIR}, and putting the following lines back into src_install: insinto /usr/share/pixmaps newins ${FILESDIR}/icon128.png openttd.png
