Road Hog

[andythenorth]

Nothing to see here, needed a thread to link something to. Move on, don't you have homes to go to?

It's now on Bananas, absolutely not finished yet, but playable. Give it a try.

What do you get?
- road vehicles from 1860-2000(ish)
- passenger trams, buses and coaches
- general cargo trams and trucks refittable to all freight (so should work with all industry newgrfs)
- specialised cargo trams and trucks
- includes steam, electric and diesel vehicles
- most trucks are articulated and cannot use drive-in roadstops
- courier trucks intended for town use (or however you want to use them) and are never articulated (so can use drive-in roadstops)

Eh credits: DanMacK did a lot of the sprites, also thanks for sprites adapted from originals by: Pikka, Zephyris, and the BATS set (all sprites used with permission or under GPL v2).

NO.

BEST THREAD EVER

No release, no info, no pictures, and already there's an argument. Even better than BROS.

[wallyweb]

and already there's an argument..

Now that's debatable.

Now that's debatable.

No it isn't.

BAD FEATURES
- it's not released yet
- there are no graphics
- the stats are all wrong
- the author keeps changing the vehicle roster
- the author is an idiot

I FOUND A BUG

The sprites seem to be broken.

Do you have a readme where it would be written to make me aware of it?

I demand 100% refund immediately!

[andythenorth]

I'd like to refer to the significant 'and others' part of that sentence

[Chrill]

This is definitely spam. I can see a ban coming up in the near future. Watch out!!

No, that would violate a trademark of the Hormel Foods Corporation.
For legal reasons, future description of this thread must use the term 'OpenS', with the 'S' being an arbitrary character and definitely not representing the word 'Spam'.

Can I sign up to do the English translations?

[TinyMusic]

I don't mind being the first NewGRF tester, really

[planetmaker]

Obviously, yes: https://translator.openttdcoop.org/project/road-hog

So here's a teaser. As you'll see, the set covers both trams and trucks.

[kamnet]

So is this a successor to HEQS?

[YNM]

Good covert operation Andy

Not sure what but I've always noticed that's what you always do ! Anyway, where's BANDIT now ?

[andythenorth]

HEQS is dead.

The screenshot posted earlier shows Road Hog as it was last week. Of course, I've redesigned it since then and binned most of those vehicles.

So here's a teaser. As you'll see, the set covers both trams and trucks.

Would be interested to know how you came up with the name Amblecote.

The house I grew up in was built on an old brickworks, which received lime from a quarry about five hundred yards away by what I believe was a tram system.

This was all in the village of Amblecote.

Is this where you got it from? I know Buildwas has a quarry, for example.

You get a prize Dave. If you can find the other set of names (there are two sources) you can have the other prize. It's a cuddly toy.
