Ah, thankyou. I just wondered Robotboys reason for such a short, snippy answer, especially when not everyone knows what a "LJ" is.

Thats enough from me, I think, I've gone OT enough :tongue:.

Keep up the good work Pikka.

I really like this set, because it offers a bus and two trucks before 1935.

BUT I would like it much more if the goods van could be refitted to all other cargo types aswell...I am not sure if car refitting is supported by the patch, alternatively some more trucks could exist. Especially for the feeder services I really NEED some trucks :D Any chance to get this add-on?

Pikka has shared with everyone the alpha of the HOV's with trucks, which can be found at his blog. Simply click on the "click here for a list" link, to be taken to the GRF page.

The current HOV's version has all the early trucks, with later years somewhat incomplete. But, all the fords are in there, and enough of the next generations to have a proper game with. Susequent generations are not all there though.

Still, it sure beats the basic trucks, as the graphics are superb, and the early trucks are all from 1921 :D.

That is exactly what I looked for...Unfortunatelly I can not get to the HOVS road vehicle V2 page. Always a network error. I hope this is only a temporary problem.

Yeah, my hosting throws a wobbly every now and then. It should be working now.

There really is nothing better than Pikka's UKRS and HOVS set together. Altogether VERY British :D

On Pikka's side another Tropic set can be found. Raichase posted some pictures a while ago. Unfortunatelly this grf is not compatible with the current patch version. I also tried the patch version mentioned on the website, but I assume this was a nightly 2.0.1 a68(ish). Does anybody know where I can get this patch version?

Strange, I always get an error message, something like "pineapple.grf has invalid sprite".
