Sure, no problem. The OpenTTD patch wasn't very generic, so I needed to change a few things. First off, the OpenTTD patch is made to strictly create a static library, we needed a shared one. Most of the changes I made were to make the patch more generic (setting LIBPREFIX=lib, etc). As the the lib/dll thing, the way I understand it, the .lib file type is used for static libraries on Windows (same as .a on UNIX).
Does that explain it?
