What happened with BTPro?
For a few days their site gives a 403 forbidden error.
Is there a technical problem or have they closed for some reason?

I can access the website just fine. Try clearing your cache and cookies.
My Scenarios:
Archipiélago Hermoso (Latest Release: Version 3.2)
Turnpike Falls (Latest Release: Version 0.91)

I have been on their site last Friday (I think) and it was okay.Chrill wrote:I can access the website just fine. Try clearing your cache and cookies.
Since then I can't access it.
Just tried it on Firefox (which doesn't safe any data the way I have configured it) and get the same error as I get on IE11:
Forbidden
You don't have permission to access / on this server.
Additionally, a 403 Forbidden error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
Re: What happened with BTPro?
I can access it just fine too and it's my first time doing so. If your IP is randomly assigned, perhaps you've been assigned a blacklisted one?
Re: What happened with BTPro?
You have definitely been banned. That's what happens when you post bad NewGRFs

Wow, seriously?Chrill wrote:You have definitely been banned. That's what happens when you post bad NewGRFs
I couldn't remember my password as I didn't play for a long time.
So tried some combinations and in the end requested my username.
Then I found an old email containing both username and password and succesfully logged in with my credentials.
After that, I left the site.
If such actions warrant a ban, well back luck for me then.

What's a "bad NewGRF"? One that's nothing but bad features? Or more like malware and such?Chrill wrote:That's what happens when you post bad NewGRFs

Sorry if that came across as rude, I was merely joking about. My apologies!

Re: What happened with BTPro?
Oh, no, I was genuinely curious actually
Re: What happened with BTPro?
well, it happened when I was entire weekend without internet :S
Anyway, our provider decided to update some servers and that scrambled some DNS we use.
All got back to normal some time ago but, if experiencing problems, clear cache and cookies.
From the BTPro team, our apologies and thank you for the understanding
best regards,

Re: What happened with BTPro?
I've cleared all there is to clear, but from my computer I still get the same 403 Forbidden message.
When I try to reach the site using my iPad, it does open, so my IP address isn't banned.
Any further help would be appreciated.

Re: What happened with BTPro?
no access here too. Have never visited the site from this PC & connection
Re: What happened with BTPro?
I've asked my personal system administrator (who happens to be bother) to look into this problem and he found that there's a problem with the IPv6-part of BTPro:
[removed for privacy]:~# host openttd.btpro.nl
openttd.btpro.nl has address 5.135.161.60

Now THAT was a very helpfull post Thank you very much for that...Yisc wrote:I've asked my personal system administrator (who happens to be bother) to look into this problem and he found that there's a problem with the IPv6-part of BTPro:
This reminded me that when my DNS hosting company changed host that I did change back the IPV4 DNS record to the correct IP address, but not the IPV6... This has been fixed now after reading this very helpfull post. Let's see if this fixes all the problems that people may have to reach BTPro.
Thanks again and best regards,
